Warped Speed: Trump Again Touts COVID Vaccine Rollout that Many Americans Blame for Lasting Harm
When President Trump took the stage at Davos and once again touted the speed and “success” of the COVID-19 vaccine rollout, it landed with a thud among many of his most loyal supporters. Whatever one thinks of Trump’s record, this is the one achievement that consistently confounds even those who defend him most fiercely. For millions of Americans, the vaccines were not a triumph — they were destructive, destabilizing, and life-altering. Bragging about them is not only unnecessary; it is politically and morally tone-deaf.
A.W. Finnegan, whose book The Sleeper Agent: The Rise of Lyme Disease, Chronic Illness, and the Great Imitator Antigens of Biological Warfare lays out a deeply documented case that Lyme disease—and possibly HIV/AIDS—trace back to covert bioweapons research. The COVID vaccines are very much in this same orbit.
Adam Finnegan, author of The Sleeper Agent, is uniquely positioned to explain why.
Finnegan is not a partisan activist chasing headlines. His journey began with Lyme disease — an illness that upended his life and forced him to ask uncomfortable questions about origins, research pathways, and institutional narratives that never quite added up. Unlike many victims, Finnegan didn’t stop at treatment. He followed the science, the funding, and the historical paper trail. What he uncovered shocked him.
That same investigative path eventually intersected with COVID — not at the surface level of politics or media talking points, but deep in the structural similarities: rushed science, suppressed dissent, captured regulators, and a medical-industrial complex more interested in speed and compliance than long-term safety. Finnegan argues that the COVID vaccines were never something to boast about — not because of conspiracy theories, but because of documented failures, ignored warning signs, and outcomes that were minimized or dismissed in real time.
This is why Trump’s continued pride in Operation Warp Speed remains such a liability. Many of his supporters can accept hard decisions made under pressure. What they cannot understand is why he still celebrates a product that harmed trust in medicine, fractured families, damaged public health credibility, and left countless Americans feeling betrayed. The right course now would be humility — an admission that the vaccines did not perform as promised, or at the very least, silence.
Finnegan can take audiences through the precise path that connects Lyme disease research, bio-defense priorities, and the COVID response — showing how institutional arrogance and narrative control, not compassion, drove decision-making. He doesn’t ask audiences to abandon Trump. He asks them to confront the one issue where honesty matters most.
At a time when Americans are desperate for truth over tribalism, Adam Finnegan offers clarity — and a sober explanation of why this is one achievement no leader should ever be proud of.
