DeSantis fundraiser is hosted by lobbyist for Moderna, company that makes puberty blockers, AND a sanctioned Chinese firm

A lobbyist for vaccine manufacturer Moderna and for the maker of a leading puberty blocker given to transgender children is holding a fundraising event for Ron DeSantis in Washington D.C. this month.

It puts the Florida governor in an awkward position as he tries to ride anti-vaxxer sentiment and his record restricting gender-affirming treatment all the way to the White House.

He is pressing for a grand jury investigation into Moderna and has banned transgender treatment for minors in Florida.
