Afraid of tRump. Afraid to vote the way he should. I can’t believe this is happening. What were they THINKING??! Can we have just one Republican with moral standards and a *lack* of fear? Do they have any idea of the consequences? (Probably not.) Stop knuckling under to the Mango Mandarin! Grow a spine!
RFK Jr has passed out of the committee and is heading to the full Senate vote. Senator Bill Cassidy said he had concerns about him – but voted to pass him anyhow. I seriously doubt that he WON’T be passed by the full Senate. GOP Majority, remember> This man DOES NOT belong as the head of HHS. This man will make our country go BACKWARDS in terms of healthcare.
He’s a known anti-vaxxer no matter what he says. He asked for scientific documentation for proof that certain vaccines need to be available and then he ignored it. He’s anti-science. It should have been DAMN OBVIOUS that he does not need to be in that position.
They are going to vote on him in the Senate and it will be along party lines because he’s one of the Confused Carrot’s choices and no one will vote against him in the GOP so guess what? We’re f*cked. We NEED vaccines. We NEED insurance. We NEED healthcare!!!! And what are we going to get?
From Raw Story: “Pathetic falling in line from a medical professional who clearly knew that the person he was interviewing for a critically important job was egregiously unqualified. This Senator bears responsibility for RFK Jr.’s impact on public health.” said professor and propaganda expert Renee DiResta on Blue Sky when responding to Cassidy’s approval.
“Republicans have maintained their pattern over the past eight years of capitulating to Trump despite his dangerous incompetence. They recognize that RFK Jr. is unqualified, yet they will confirm him anyway to avoid incurring Trump’s wrath and facing a primary challenge from a MAGA loyalist,” said legal analyst Jon Hyman.
Let us not forget about him being a fringe conspiracy theorist. Let us not forget he is a science denier. Let us not forget that he is completely unsuitable for the position. We won’t be able to forget once he gets into office and blows up science. Let us not forget we’re screwed. How much progress is going to go away and take us back to, oh, let’s say the 60’s. He thinks that Black immune systems are different from white. He doesn’t know even the basics of medical knowledge. If you haven’t gotten your vaccines yet, better hurry up and do them. I’m wondering how fast things will be pulled out of medical locations when he gets into office. I’m afraid.
