It’s been impossible to check any mainstream news outlet in the past week without coming across headlines about Tylenol and autism. Every fake news outlet is suddenly trumpeting a story that HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is about to release his much-anticipated report on what’s causing the autism epidemic in America. The reporting all says that Kennedy plans to provide proof that Tylenol use during pregnancy gives children autism. There’s just one tiny little problem with this story that has national significance. RFK, Jr., has never made any public statements linking Tylenol to autism. So, what is this?

The Wall Street Journal was the first outlet to report on the Kennedy-Tylenol-autism story, citing “sources close to the matter.” That was followed by credible-sounding reports by MSN News, NBC News, CBS News, Forbes, USA Today, Newsweek, Bloomberg, Reuters, Yahoo Finance, MarketWatch, Politico, The Hill, Fortune, and the list keeps going. Kenvue, the parent company that owns Tylenol, saw its stock drop as much as 15% the first day that the Wall Street Journal reported the story.

If this is actually true, wouldn’t Kennedy have mentioned Tylenol at some point during his decades-long career in the public eye?

Just to be clear, once again, we could not find any record of Kennedy publicly talking about a link between Tylenol and autism. He has acknowledged that about 20% of autism cases are linked to other “environmental causes.” For the other 80% of cases, he’s always talked about the overwhelming evidence that the autism epidemic has been caused by the massive increase in childhood and infant vaccines.

Here was RFK talking about this 20 years ago:

And yes, that’s Joe “Hide Your Interns” Scarborough on MSNBC, agreeing with Kennedy that vaccines cause autism.

During a cabinet meeting back in April, President Donald Trump directed Kennedy to use all the resources at HHS and CDC to try to figure out the root causes of the autism epidemic. Kennedy publicly promised to do so. He said he’d have a report for the American people by the end of September.

That report is coming in less than three weeks. We suspect that the political earthquake the report is going to cause has something to do with these reports on Tylenol.

However, the media is reporting that the study will show that Tylenol use during pregnancy is the cause of autism. That doesn’t line up with anything Kennedy has ever said about autism, or with any of the scientific studies surrounding Tylenol.

Every study that has looked for a possible correlation between Tylenol and autism has found that neonatal use of acetaminophen might show a link. In other words, Children’s Tylenol given to a baby or toddler. Those studies are all inconclusive, however. None of them used vaccinated vs. unvaccinated control groups, either, so they don’t really tell us much.

It’s possible that the report will list Children’s Tylenol as one of the possible environmental sources of autism, which accounts for 20% of cases. Until we see the report, we have to say that this Tylenol brouhaha stinks to high heaven.

The pharmaceutical industry and its government enablers at the CDC, the FDA, and HHS all know what’s coming before the end of this month. There’s just too much evidence of vaccines causing autism for the report to overlook it or shove it aside for Tylenol. What this gives us is a close look at how Big Pharma controls the fake news media.

We know. You might want to sit down for this, but sometimes the “news” lies to us based on financial or political interests. Shocker, right?

When Kennedy delivers the goods, the American people are going to be making some very big demands of Congress. This report will show that vaccines cause autism. People will be demanding that Congress finally eliminate the liability shield that Big Pharma enjoys for vaccines. They will demand that it be retroactive, back to the 1980s. That will be the only remedy that families with autistic children will accept.

The lawsuits will be epic. The demands on Congress will be thunderous, and this promises to be a signature issue in the 2026 midterms. Candidates who continue to call RFK, Jr., a quack are going to have a tough time at the ballot box next year.
