Big Pharma gets a Cancellation, FBI Reopens Pipe Bombs, Cocaine & Court Leaks plus Ivy Under Fire

from The Ben Ferguson Podcast · host Premiere Networks

1. Cancellation of Moderna's Bird Flu Vaccine Contract The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), under Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., canceled a $766 million contract with Moderna. The contract was intended to fund the development of an mRNA-based vaccine for pandemic influenza, including H5N1 (bird flu). Despite positive early trial results from Moderna, the administration cited scientific, ethical, and safety concerns as reasons for the cancellation. The move reflects RFK Jr.'s skepticism toward mRNA vaccines and aligns with his broader rollback of COVID-19 vaccine recommendations. 2. FBI Reopening High-Profile Investigations FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino announced the reopening or renewed focus on several public corruption cases, including: The January 6 pipe bomb incident. The White House cocaine discovery (July 2023). The leak of the 2022 Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade. Bongino emphasized a push for transparency and public engagement, encouraging tips from the public. 3. Federal Crackdown on Harvard University The Trump administration is canceling or redirecting $100 million in federal contracts with Harvard, following a freeze of $2.6 billion in research grants. The administration cites concerns over campus climate, anti-American sentiment, and violence against Jewish and American students. Additional measures include: Pausing student visa interviews. Implementing new social media screening for foreign students. The administration frames this as a move to redirect funds to trade schools, promote accountability, and encourage institutional self-reliance. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
