In England, about 100 people have been inoculated with an experimental malaria vaccine in two clinical trials. Now, they no longer have access to the clinical trial staff if that vaccine were to cause an adverse reaction in their bodies.

[where she was participating in a research study that was testing a new device to prevent pregnancy and H.IV. infection...Secretary of State Marco Rubio has said that the agency is wasteful and advances a liberal agenda]

Marco Rubio thinks that a research study to prevent pregnancy and HIV "advances a liberal agenda". This must mean the conservative agenda is to cause more pregnancies and HIV infections. Why didn't the GOP tell people their new agenda before the elections?

They did, and they still won

Nope. They pulled a bait and switch. People thought they were voting against illegal immigration, not a new Department of Government Enshitification to massively degrade the quality of government. The only thing that happened on immigration was a one day stunt that arrested some US citizens. If it was easy to catch illegal aliens than Biden would have already done it. So we knew immigration was a bait and switch for something completely different, we just didn't know what.
