For most publications, a twentysomething with a B.S. in "Communication Arts/Speech" from some place called Maranatha Baptist University would not be deemed even remotely qualified to critically evaluate vaccine safety.

Not so at The Federalist—a secretly-funded far-right publication that also promotes climate denial. https://www.dataforprogress.org/blog/2018/12/17/who-funds-the-federalist-an-interactive

This is from the page for prospective biology majors at Maranatha Baptist:

"Students will demonstrate the ability to use scientific knowledge to declare the glory of the Creator as revealed in the Bible and His creation."

The school, which promises a "Christian education" that presumably excludes actual biology instruction, is accredited by The Higher Learning Commission.

The HLC, which has been repeatedly criticized by @EducationOIG for their oversight of predatory for-profit colleges and has nearly lost its power of accreditation before, should definitely be investigated by Biden's Dept. of Education.
