    I don’t get it. Why were they speaking to the European Parliament? In what role, and with what legitimacy?

      Good question.

      The article doesn’t say much at all. It’s mostly US take. The writer, a freelance journalist, while he does work for the converstation afaik, published it on substack… What I found was that Dr Robert Malone has been ptomoted to be the head of CDC ( USA) by Robert Kennedy & Maga. He’s also been invited by some anti vaxx foundations in Europe on several occasions, and they attract a certain kind of rightwinged conspiracy politicians. How the members of European Parliament come into play, I don’t know either. Maybe he was invited by some rightwinged faction, But I don’t get it either.
