This article isn’t crude like the others, but it’s still weird, so I figured it would suit. I hope I can keep this trend going. This guy is a walking disaster and has been from the beginning. All his promises were lies (just like Trump), as expected. Words are pretty. His actions are not. They’re flat-out dangerous. He’s been flying low recently, but, of course, not anymore. Is there a way to get rid of him? I’m not hopeful. Respects to Raw Story:
Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s penchant for going rogue on health policy has forced Trump insiders to install new oversight controls, as mounting scandals and unpopular vaccine positions threaten to become a political liability for Republicans heading into midterms. Despite Trump’s public praise for the controversial HHS Secretary, White House officials—some who never supported Kennedy’s prominent role—are increasingly alarmed that his erratic leadership and policy blunders will damage GOP candidates in November, with the Wall Street Journal reporting the Cabinet member’s “standing among some staff is at a new low.’
Well, gosh and golly, I wonder why? Could it be because he’s flat-out crazy? Dude has even less business being in his position of power than Petey Boy, and we all know that’s saying something! It seems he didn’t actually get rid of that brainworm, because his behavior is getting more and more erratic, and more and more outrageous. But Trump thinks he’s the greatest thing since the wheel, and for right now, regrettably, we’re stuck with him.
According to the report, Trump aides have taken direct control over Kennedy’s department after polling revealed his vaccine skepticism and other health initiatives are deeply unpopular. Although Trump initially promised Kennedy he could “go wild on health,” administration officials have grown increasingly frustrated with what they view as a series of catastrophic missteps.
Kennedy’s standing among HHS staff has collapsed following multiple setbacks to his “Make America Healthy Again” agenda. Yet he remains in Trump’s favor personally, according to those familiar with their relationship. The litany of failures forced the White House to overhaul HHS leadership. Kennedy drew criticism for his tepid initial response to the measles outbreak in Texas. FDA officials shocked the department by unexpectedly approving a generic abortion pill.
We remember measles. Oh, yes, we do. He went to a funeral down there and went on record as one rude SOB. To paraphrase, assuming my memory is working: “Measles kills, but don’t vaccinate.” I wonder how many families are having second thoughts about vaccines now. And he’s changed the recommended vaccines for children. Stupid, stupid, STUPID. But no, he’s not an anti-vaxxer. He’s so full of it! This is someone else who needs the Slap Machine™. (No, I’m not serious. We’ve been over this.)
In January, the White House was blindsided by Kennedy’s controversial grant cuts to mental health and substance abuse programs—cuts the department was forced to reverse after Capitol Hill outcry. The FDA has become a continuing source of chaos under Kennedy’s stewardship. Desperate to restore order, the White House hired Brad Smith, a DOGE operative, to audit HHS operations and determine what was failing. Smith’s recommendations included a series of structural changes designed to end internal warfare and improve departmental functioning. The intervention signals that Trump officials have lost confidence in Kennedy’s ability to manage one of the government’s largest agencies—even as the president maintains his public loyalty to the controversial Cabinet member.
Why did they bring in a DOGE operative, of all people? Well, it seems this guy has at least some morals. He actually did the work and figured things out. We can hope it will help, although it’s going to take a lot to restore that department in the future. And remember, he has “Doctor” Oz doing Medicare, etc., stuff, which is just as much of a joke as Kennedy is. Why do we have a laughable lunatic running a department this important? He’s horrible. He’s sending medicine and health backwards. He’s damn deadly. And once again, we don’t have much of a chance to get rid of him. We’re stuck.
See you soon!
Friends, I know everyone begs you for money. I promise that among all those asking for spare change, we are the smallest and the hardest-working. We’re a group of old, disabled people, except for one writer in his mid-50s. The rest of us are in our sixties and seventies, and this is a labor of love. All we’re asking for is the chance to keep telling the truth about Trump and help ensure democracy survives. If you can help, please do. Thank you. Ursula
“Why do we have a laughable lunatic running a department this important? He’s horrible.”
It’s the Trump regime way.
Flood the zone with incompetent, moronic imbeciles and none of them can show up the uber-moron himself
You just *had* to remind me (lolol)
Although I do think some of Trump’s morons outshine his “moronicness” 😉
Now that I’m on Medicare, I am fortunate to receive emails from “Doctor” Oz.
I typically send them to the junk mail folder unread.
I’ll be moved onto it in November. I won’t read any of Oz’s stuff either. It’s all nonsense.
