Democrats Already Lost Young Men. Now, Their Strategy Might Cost Them Women, Too.

Democrats lost the plot. First, it was among men, especially young men who were tired of being labeled “toxic” or “a cisgender male,” instead of simply men. Now, the Left is doubling down on an ideology that also could isolate one of their most reliable voting blocs—young women and suburban moms.  

Enter the MAHA movement.  

Make America Healthy Again, spearheaded by Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., is bridging political divides through a shared value for healthy living and skepticism over the number of vaccines given to children.  

Now, conservative pro-life moms and liberal mothers in Colorado who make their own baby food that is free of genetically modified ingredients have something to agree on: The health and well-being of our children should always be placed above politics.

But even as Kennedy announced that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will no longer recommend the COVID-19 vaccine for healthy pregnant women and children in its immunization schedule, far-left politicians have doubled down on their love of vaccines.  

“When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.’s anti-vaccine views, he said he was ‘not going to take away vaccines from anybody.’ But now he’s taking them away from millions of mommas and babies, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., wrote on X.  

Fact check: No, Senator, parents are simply no longer pressured to give their healthy children the COVID-19 vaccine.  

Or how about Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., who wrote on X: “RFK Jr. would hate it if you reminded him that he told Congress this two weeks ago: ‘My opinions about vaccines are irrelevant. I don’t think people should be taking medical advice from me.’”  

Right, and that is why RFK is now calling for parents instead of the government to decide whether their child should be vaccinated against COVID-19.  

On this week’s edition of “Problematic Women,” we discuss the Left’s latest search for meaning and leadership as Democrats double down on losing policies that are isolating voters.  

Also on today’s show, the FBI is investigating the mayor of Seattle, Washington. We explain why. And Jordan Peterson found himself in an awkward situation during a recent debate.
