Sure.

You can follow all of your favorites.

It's great to be with you, Claire.

Yes.

I practiced internal medicine in Florida for several years before I got elected to the U.S.

House.

I retired from the U.S.

House and then went back to my practice.

I'm still practicing part-time now.

I served in Congress for 14 years.

I was on

The health committee, we oversaw the CDC.

That's how I got to know Bobby Kennedy.

That's how I got very involved with the vaccine safety issues.

And Bobby Kennedy asked President Trump to appoint me to be director of the CDC.

And my nomination was pulled because of opposition of a few Republicans in the Senate who I believe were under a lot of pressure from pharma.

Yeah, Bill Cassidy was one of them, Senator Cassidy from Louisiana.

Well, funny thing about that is I had known him and had met him several times before I was nominated.

And he's an internist, but he specialized in gastroenterology.

So we were fellow physicians, but he was very negative towards me and my nomination.
