President Donald Trump believes mothers who believe their children were injured by vaccines should be listened to, according to a statement shared by the White House via X on September 23rd, 2025, at 12:06 AM UTC. The statement, attributed to [@SecKennedy](https://twitter.com/SecKennedy), asserts that "40-70% of mothers who have children with autism believe that their child was injured by a vaccine," and that "President Trump believes that we should be listening to these mothers instead of gaslighting and marginalizing them like prior administrations." This development follows President Trump's remarks regarding acetaminophen, where he was heard questioning the pronunciation of the drug, "Asceda -- well, let's see how we say that. Ascenem -- enophin. Acetaminophen. Is that okay?" This was shared via X by user atrupar at 11:48:04 AM UTC on September 22nd, 2025. In unrelated activity within the reporting window, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) posted "Gotta Catch ‘Em All." on X at 11:58:29 AM UTC on September 22nd, 2025. Previous reports from September 23rd, 2025, between 12:01 AM and 12:06 AM UTC, indicated that Sinclair Broadcast Group would preempt "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" across its ABC affiliate stations starting Tuesday night, replacing the show with news programming amid ongoing discussions with ABC. Further context from previous reports on September 22nd, 2025, includes a Washington Post poll indicating President Trump's handling of the economy was rated poorly, with a 19-point deficit, and tariffs at a 30-point deficit. This contrasts with his October 2020 net approval of +14 on the economy. Additionally, comments attributed to Jasmine Crockett on CNN were quoted by Laura Loomer on X within the same period, stating, "It hurts my heart that only 2 Caucasians voted against honoring Charlie Kirk."
