Rosie O’Donnell Admits She Has Given Her Autistic Son TDS — Says He Slams the Table in Anger at Trump’s Name

Rosie O’Donnell’s far-left politics appear to be rubbing off on her son.

In an interview with former CNN host Jim Acosta, the exiled comedienne admitted her 12-year-old Clay, who is both autistic and transgender, would often bang his hands on the table in frustration when talking about President Trump.

“My daughter is now saying, ‘D*mn him, d*mn Trump,’” O’Donnell remarked, referring to her son as a girl. “And smashing her hand on the table.”

“And I said, ‘Wow, honey, what are you thinking?’ And she said, ‘He made us move in order for our own safety! And it’s now he’s destroying the country!’”

“She lives here, she hears what I’m saying to you. Not that I go around speaking like this every day if it is not an interview. But I think to myself, ‘You don’t want to give this to her.’”

”Whatever this thing is, of me thinking that I somehow have to stand in defiance of him,” she continued. “I don’t, somebody can tap me out. I did 22 years, I don’t really need to do anymore.”

Some Kids Getting Double or Triple Vaccinated, California Nurse Says

Babies and children who lack paper vaccination records sometimes receive two or three times the number of vaccines recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), according to experts who spoke with The Defender. Children whose parents immigrated to the U.S. and who don’t speak English are at the greatest risk.

Many medical providers assume that if there’s no record of a vaccination, the best way to ensure that a child receives the recommended vaccine is to readminister it, according to Rena Maculans, a registered nurse in California. “That’s the mentality of the providers,” she said.

Maculans — who spent 10 years as an emergency department (ER) nurse and later processed autism treatment claims — said urgent care and ER staff typically follow protocols that tell them to vaccinate a child if there’s no documentation of a prior vaccination.

Maculans said she followed those protocols before she realized that vaccines can cause harm. “We were all under the impression, well, if you double up on it, it’s a good thing. You have extra protection.”

Now, Maculans, whose daughter was injured by a COVID-19 vaccine, urges people to carry their immunization record with them. “That’s why I tell people, anytime you go to the doctor or urgent care, bring your immunization records with you.”

Maculans said she began piecing things together while processing medical claims for Partnership HealthPlan of California, a healthcare provider that serves over 900,000 Medi-Cal members in Northern California.

Medi-Cal is the state’s Medicaid program that provides free or low-cost health coverage for low-income individuals and families.

Maculans was a “utilization management nurse coordinator,” which meant she processed medical claims for continuation of services, including autism treatment services. It was her job to determine whether a patient should continue receiving autism treatments, including speech therapy visits, or whether the patient no longer needed the treatments.

She noticed that a highly disproportionate number of the claims were submitted by families that spoke only Spanish. In other words, more Spanish-speaking children reported having continued or increased autism symptoms that required treatment, compared to English-speaking or bilingual kids.

Knowing the link between certain vaccine ingredients and increased autism risk, she suspected that Spanish-speaking Medi-Cal families — such as migrant workers — may experience increased vaccinations due to language barriers and not having their children’s immunization records on hand to prove prior vaccination to medical staff.

California has among the highest autism rates in the country — 1 in 12.5 boys, according to the latest available CDC data.

Maculans acknowledged that she is speculating and that, under HIPAA laws that protect patients’ private health records, she could not take screenshots of the claims that she said would reveal the trends she observed.

The Study That Changes Everything: McCullough Foundation Drops Bomb on Autism Debate

The most comprehensive analysis of autism risk factors ever conducted just landed, and it’s about to blow up decades of carefully constructed lies. The McCullough Foundation Report titled “Determinants of Autism Spectrum Disorder” reviewed more than 300 studies across every known risk domain—genetic, environmental, and vaccine-related—and the conclusion is devastating for the vaccine cartel: combination routine childhood vaccination is the dominant modifiable risk factor for autism.

Let me be blunt: This isn’t another small study you can dismiss. This is 80 pages of systematically integrated evidence spanning epidemiologic, clinical, mechanistic, and molecular domains. This is Dr. Peter McCullough, cardiologist and epidemiologist. This is Dr. Andrew Wakefield returning to the scientific literature after years of being crucified by the pharmaceutical industry. This is a team of researchers who had the guts to do what the CDC has refused to do for decades—actually compare vaccinated and unvaccinated children.

Why Does Tylenol Cause Chronic Illnesses Like Autism?

The Presidential Announcement

September 22, 2025, President Trump held a press conference about the potential causes of autism. Shortly beforehand, the press became aware that Trump would focus on the link between Tylenol and autism, resulting in the national media collectively ridiculing that link immediately before the press conference.

In that press conference, Trump stated he had felt very strongly about bringing attention to vaccines and autism for 20 years, that he felt we were giving too many shots too quickly, and that they needed to be spaced out. There was no reason to give the hepatitis B vaccine prior to children being 12 (which, as I showed here, is true), and Tylenol increases the risk of autism, so if possible, it should be avoided during pregnancy, and you should not give it to infants.

Secretary Kennedy added that some 40% to 70% of mothers who have children with autism believe a vaccine injured their child, and that President Trump believes we should be listening to these mothers instead of gaslighting them.

Note: Regrettably, to show they believed in “Science,” pregnant mothers began quickly posting videos of themselves taking large amounts of Tylenol (which I compiled on 𝕏 here — including one tragic overdose1).

Over-the-Counter Pain Management

Because of how uncomfortable pain is, pain treatments have long been a core market in medicine. Remarkably, however, most standard pain therapies have serious issues and often lead patients to needing more and more severe interventions.

Typically, the first-line treatment for pain is an over-the-counter medication, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol), ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin), naproxen (Aleve), aspirin, or topical diclofenac (Voltaren gel). Unfortunately, these medications all have dose-dependent toxicity and typically only elicit partial improvement in pain. Many consider NSAIDs (ibuprofen and naproxen) among the most hazardous drugs in the U.S. because:

•They are the leading cause of drug-related hospital admissions — Often due to heart attacks, strokes, bleeding, and kidney failure2 (e.g., at least 107,000 Americans are admitted to hospitals each year for NSAID GI bleeds).3

•Kidney damage is a significant risk — One study found a 20% increased risk of kidney disease from NSAIDs;4 others found up to 212%.5 Amongst kidney failure patients, 65.7% were found to be chronic NSAID users.6

•NSAIDs raise cardiovascular risks — NSAIDs also increase the risk of heart attacks and death (e.g., extensive studies have found between a 24% to 326% increase7,8,9). Two of the worst ones, Vioxx (Merck)10 and Celebrex (Pfizer),11 were designed to reduce stomach bleeding but instead caused heart attacks and strokes.

Merck hid data on Vioxx’s risks; eventually it was withdrawn after an estimated 120,000 deaths.12 Celebrex, still on the market, has been linked to 75,000 deaths.13 Merck’s handling of Vioxx14 later informed how pharma pushed the HPV vaccine and mRNA vaccines.15

•Gastrointestinal bleeding is common and often fatal — In 1999, over 16,000 Americans died from it.16 NSAIDs also cause small bowel damage in over 50% of chronic users17 — often undetected — leading to “small bowel enteropathy” and possibly chronic illness through gut permeability.18

•They impair healing, especially of ligaments, creating long-term re-injury risk.19

Note: The dangers of NSAIDs are discussed further here.

How Vaccine Brain Injuries Were Rebranded and Erased From Memory

I’ve long believed that public relations (propaganda) is one of the most powerful but invisible forces in our society. Again and again, I’ve watched professional PR firms create narratives that most of the country believes, regardless of how much it goes against their self-interests. What’s most remarkable is that despite the exact same tactics being used repeatedly on the public, most people simply can’t see it. When you try to point out exactly how they’re being bamboozled by yet another PR campaign, they often can’t recognize it—instead insisting you’re paranoid or delusional.

That’s why one of my major goals in this publication has been to expose this industry. Once you understand their playbook—having “independent” experts push sculpted language that media outlets then repeat—it becomes very easy to spot, and saves you from falling into the traps most people do. The COVID-19 vaccines, for instance, were facilitated by the largest PR campaign of our lifetime.

One of the least appreciated consequences of this industry is that many of our cultural beliefs ultimately originate from PR campaigns. This explains why so many widely believed things are “wrong”—if a belief were actually true, it wouldn’t require a massive PR investment to instill in society. Due to PR’s power, the viewpoints it instills tend to crowd out other cultural beliefs.

In this article, we’ll take a deeper look at what’s behind one of those implanted beliefs: “vaccines don’t cause autism.”

FDA Stayed Silent As Internal Reports About Potential Tylenol Risks Piled Up

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) defied the advice of its own drug safety experts to warn pregnant women about Tylenol for nearly a decade, internal reports and presentations obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation reveal.

FDA rank-and-file scientists repeatedly recommended the agency release information about Tylenol in pregnancy across three scientific reviews conducted in 2016, 2019, 2022 and two memos, one from the FDA’s maternal health division in 2016 and one from the FDA’s urological health division in 2017.

The scientific literature posits many plausible drivers of autism, the most well-established of which are genetic, and the FDA drug safety experts acknowledged that the research linking the condition to Tylenol is far from ironclad.

Still, as alarm bells rang within FDA headquarters and the boardrooms of Tylenol’s manufacturers, pregnant women heard nothing from either the government or the manufacturers about the potential risks until the September announcement by President Donald Trump and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

FDA leadership declined to update its webpage about over-the-counter painkillers in pregnancy, repeatedly falling back on language first issued in January 2015. But that statement simply acknowledged that “FDA is aware of concerns” about Tylenol and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), citing just one scientific paper.

At the urging of Trump and Kennedy, FDA finally released a nuanced statement in September cautioning pregnant women about Tylenol while acknowledging that aspirin, ibuprofen and high fevers all pose their own risks. That move was first recommended by an FDA drug safety expert nine years earlier.

The DCNF obtained the FDA documents from the law firm Keller Postman LLC, which brought a class action lawsuit against Tylenol maker Kenvue, a legally independent spinoff of Johnson & Johnson. The personal injury law firm, which often brings class action lawsuits, obtained the documents from FDA via the Freedom of Information Act.

Tylenol, a brand name for acetaminophen, first received FDA approval in 1955 before modern drug laws tightened clinical trial requirements in 1962.

Some experts argue that neurological damage occurs due to a toxic byproduct of acetaminophen called NAPQI. Babies and children with autism may struggle to metabolize the drug, resulting in higher levels of NAPQI, which kills cells.

Erasing Encephalitis — Why Vaccine Brain Injuries Became Autism

Trump Derangement Syndrome comes for heralded off-label autism treatment after president endorses

he medical establishment and mainstream media are uniting against the Trump administration’s re-purposing of an inexpensive drug to treat an epidemic, calling it “unproven,” not “backed by science,” “not a cure” and “shocking” to endorse, with The New York Times emphasizing no profit-driven drug company suggested it.

In President Trump’s first term, it was ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19. In his second, it’s prescription leucovorin to treat autism spectrum disorder.

Long used to treat chemotherapy side effects, leucovorin calcium tablets got approved last week by the Food and Drug Administration to treat “cerebral folate deficiency” (CFD), whose clinical symptoms include “global developmental delays with autistic features,” following its own “systematic analysis of literature” from 2009 through last year.

“Published case reports provided patient-level data on over 40 patients,” adult and child, with most of those given leucovorin treatment showing “substantial improvement of symptoms of CFD that would not be expected when compared to the natural history of CFD due to FOLR1 gene variants,” the Federal Register notice says.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. touted leucovorin to treat autism Monday with Trump and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Mehmet Oz, but it was quickly overshadowed by the other autism-related recommendation that pregnant women limit their use of Tylenol, which prompted a new TikTok challenge.

Mount Sinai: Prenatal Acetaminophen Exposure Increases Risks of Autism and ADHD in Children, According to Analysis of 46 Global Studies

Amid growing concern over neurodevelopmental disorders, a recent study from Mount Sinai Hospital has reignited the debate surrounding acetaminophen, commonly known as paracetamol or Tylenol.

This analgesic, used by over 50% of pregnant women worldwide to relieve pain and fever, maybe linked to an increased risk of autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in their children.

The report, published in August 2025 in the journal Environmental Health, analyzed 46 previous studies from international groups.

It applied the Navigation Guide methodology, a rigorous framework for evaluating environmental evidence. The findings show a consistent association: prenatal acetaminophen exposure increases the risk of autism by 19% (odds ratio 1.19) and ADHD by 26% (odds ratio 1.26).

Diddier Prada, MD, PhD, lead researcher at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, emphasized: “Our findings indicate that higher-quality studies are more likely to show a link between prenatal acetaminophen exposure and elevated risks of autism and ADHD.”

The analysis included 20 studies on ADHD, eight on autism, and 18 on other neurodevelopmental disorders. This is not an isolated finding. A 2019 Johns Hopkins study, based on umbilical cord blood samples from 996 children, found that high acetaminophen levels tripled the risk of autism (up to 3.62 times) and doubled the risk of ADHD (up to 2.86 times).

Researchers measured metabolites in blood at birth and followed the children for an average of 8.9 years. Another study, funded by the NIH in 2025, confirmed similar patterns: the middle third of exposure increased the risk of ADHD by 2.26 times and autism by 2.14 times.

These data come from cohorts such as the Boston Birth Cohort and the Nurses’ Health Study II. The underlying biology points to concerning mechanisms. Acetaminophen crosses the placental barrier and can induce oxidative stress, disrupt hormones, and cause epigenetic changes that interfere with fetal brain development. The risk appears heightened in the third trimester, when the brain develops rapidly.

In September 2025, the U.S. FDA responded with a letter to clinicians, initiating changes to product labels like Tylenol’s. It cited “accumulated evidence” of an association with autism and ADHD, recommending minimal doses and short-term use.

Joe Rogan Stunned by Liberal Pregnant Women Downing Tylenol to Own Trump: ‘This Science Came From Harvard’

People have often joked that if Trump said breathing air is good for you, liberals would start dying of suffocation. Now we know there is some real truth behind that.

As the Gateway Pundit has reported, once the Trump administration cautioned pregnant women from taking Tylenol, pregnant liberal women started going on the internet and downing Tylenol, even filming it, in some cases with disastrous results.

On a recent episode of his podcast, Joe Rogan commented on this, noting that this science has been backed up by Harvard.

The Daily Caller reports:

Podcast host Joe Rogan on “The Joe Rogan Experience” Friday called out pregnant women who have been filming themselves consuming Tylenol in objection to President Donald Trump’s administration’s recommendation not to do so.

TikTok users ingested large amounts of Tylenol to mock Trump and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. after announcing the findings of an association between the use of acetaminophen by pregnant women and autism diagnoses in children. Rogan noted on his podcast that the Trump administration cited a Harvard study to support its findings.

“I’ve been fascinated by these videos of pregnant women taking Tylenol to show Trump that they don’t believe in what RFK Jr. is saying, that it’s somehow or another anti-science — when this science came from Harvard,” Rogan said. “That’s where the study came from. He’s not making things up. And these people are like on TikTok — they’re pregnant women taking Tylenol.”
