Climate crusader to vaccine skeptic RFK Jr to 'Make America Healthy Again'

Kennedy and Gaetz.

Beyond parody.

This is going to be slash and burn of the most serious variety.

Like a vulture company taking over a country.

Not going to end prettily.

This is great news!

With JFK (it's such a disgrace he is carrying that name) another yes-sayer will join Donald's horror cabinet.

Spreading conspiracy theories, fake information, promoting Donald's favorite diet in the future, and so on.

What kind of "human services" will he provide?

RFK

Alex Jones might be up for job next. He’s had a few financial problems recently.

Kennedy will also tackle the nation's food health, a curious task considering Trump's well-known affection for McDonald's.

The contradictions between RFK and Trump are just too numerous.

Purely a marriage of convenience with Trump getting the Kennedy glamour and RFK Jr finally ascending to a pivotal government role.

Climate crusader to vaccine skeptic RFK Jr to 'Make America Healthy Again'

Excellent news. Take the corporate food out of school lunches is one of my big issues. Disgusting processed food. sweetened milk?? Just dumb for the health of our kids.

Listening to the Louder with Crowder podcast today, they are over the moon with RFKjr's appointment here.

More WONDERFUL news.

What a team of SUPERSTARS!!

Fantastic news and a big win for public decency and a healthier future. This appointment is actually garnering some bipartisan accolades because many know Big Ag/Pharma are out of control.

Look at his muscles, then criticise him to his face.

I guess Samoa was too far for the US public to recognize how nefarious RFKjr is, hopefully he has no actual power to re-enact the same stunt that left scores of dead children by measles thanks to him.

With JFK (it's such a disgrace he is carrying that name) another yes-sayer will join Donald's horror cabinet.

So he has to tow the Democrat-Kennedy line? Why?

Spreading conspiracy theories, fake information, promoting Donald's favorite diet in the future, and so on.

I see, so I have to trust these people FDA and big Pharma because their titles tell me to?

What kind of "human services" will he provide?

We shall see. Relax.

And this from a Democrat. Wow!

Man, I really hope the next major pandemic doesn't kick off with this guy in charge.

The end of American health care

A convicted felon has nominated a certified quack to take care of America’s health.

So basically Bass, you deem yourself more qualified on medical issues than qualified professionals?

I see, so I have to trust these people FDA and big Pharma because their titles tell me to?]

No, because they have the evidence to support what they say.

It is also positive that they have not been found to openly lie like RFKjr, lack of brain worms also.

Man, I really hope the next major pandemic doesn't kick off with this guy in charge.

M-pox and Malburg are getting under control, but there are reports of rodent vectored disease outbreaks and arthropod transmitted infections are increasing on importance so it is a race to see if the next pandemic happens before he gets into enough trouble to be fired.

Local outbreaks thanks to new influenza variants (and people promoting raw milk) are a sure bet, things will happen with him at charge and scientists all over the world are going to have lots of new data to show how people denying scientific knowledge can make a lot of damage.

Unless it can be engineered to only hit red states, in which case the outcome would be hilarious.

Is going to be like the papers showing how republicans died more from covid but in a much more general way.

Not private

Better than the previous ones that will soon be gone and hopefully to never be seen again. Fantastic news. I hope RFK goes in with a wrecking ball!

America, the snapshot, 2024.

Not private

Apparently that is the whole point, to gut public health so private companies can squeeze as much as possible from those in need of any kind of medical attention.

Better than the previous ones

Except for the population, better for the pharmaceutical companies and maybe future generations that can benefit from the reports using the soon available negative control groups for vaccines, medicines, therapies, etc.

ROFL

40% of Americans can’t afford basic healthcare. Trump promised to change that.

That’s 2 Democrats in the Cabinet now, great show of unity and bipartisanship from President Trump that has been sorely lacking.

no doubt that big pharma is a cancer in america.

but a guy who had a worm eat his brain might not be the guy to fix anything.

ROFL

Maybe that will come in time, but it’s not on the first immediate priority list

Apparently that is the whole point, to gut public health so private companies can squeeze as much as possible from those in need of any kind of medical attention. 

As long as they don’t touch my private healthcare provider, I’m OK, Congress needs to work with the Democrats to figure this out for the 22 million that don’t have adequate healthcare.

The comments here are hilarious. If Kennedy had taken on this role in a Democrat administration, you lot would be hailing him as a hero standing against the might of the evil food processing and pharma companies. I hope he goes through the FDA with a fine-tooth comb and kicks out anyone with a conflict of interest between them and the people they're supposed to regulate.

There's likely to be a hell of a lot of job vacancies popping up there soon.

So, what specific programs would like to see decimated? ACA? Medicare? Medicade?

ACA

JJE-

Look at his muscles, then criticise him to his face.

LOL.

What exactly is the old "ex"-heroin junkie going to do?

It is amazing to see the "unbiased" legacy media clamouring against the idea of making the population healthy again. The political derangement still runs strong.

So, what specific programs would like to see decimated? ACA? Medicare? Medicade?

ACA

Of course. American’s first! But we hate Obama, so let’s immediately eliminate the ACA and chuck tens of millions of Americans to the curb and then decide on an alternative healthcare plan whenever it’s convenient for us.

He also suggested the coronavirus itself was "ethnically targeted" to harm Black and white people while sparing "Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese."

This is such a disgustingly deceptive way to represent what he said.

You can hear directly what he said here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHyHQiKS3f0

The more they deceptively attack RFKjr, the more people become convinced he's the right person for the job.

Of course. American’s first! But we hate Obama, so let’s immediately eliminate the ACA and chuck tens of millions of Americans to the curb and then decide on an alternative healthcare plan whenever it’s convenient for us.

Let me ask you something. California has over 58K homeless people, that's just California, we didn't talk about Oregon, Washington State, NYC, or even DC, now these are Dem-run cities, why won't they help these people? Newsom always brags about how well CA is doing. Why do they hate him so much? Before blaming Republicans look at your own toxic policies

As long as they don’t touch my private healthcare provider, I’m OK

Of course they will not, even when it stops covering drugs/surgeries/procedures that will skyrocket in price. The providers will be fine, the insured? not really, but this has been well known already so it should not be a surprise.

If Kennedy had taken on this role in a Democrat administration, you lot would be hailing him as a hero standing against the might of the evil food processing and pharma companies.

Him bein an antiscientific crank do not depend on which party he belongs, but since the Republican party has been the one that embraced scientific denialism it is not realistic to expect RFK to be nominated to anything from the party that has opposed this obviously invalid position.

It is amazing to see the "unbiased" legacy media clamouring against the idea of making the population healthy again. 

What everybody is reacting against is a person that has zero qualifications to fulfill that purpose and have actively worked for decades against it based on only two things, debunked personal beliefs and personal profit. There is no bias in recognizing the brain-worm-vehicle nefarious actions that have already caused deaths.

Bad Haircut

The comments here are hilarious. If Kennedy had taken on this role in a Democrat administration,

He's a nutjob. He wouldn't get a job in a Democrat administration.

Him bein an antiscientific crank do not depend on which party he belongs, but since the Republican party has been the one that embraced scientific denialism

And that is ok. He has a right to believe what he wants and to bring about or challenge other like-minded scientists who believe the way he does. I would never take the vaccine and I am glad that I didn't.

it is not realistic to expect RFK to be nominated to anything from the party that has opposed this obviously invalid position.

I think he will be confirmed.

This is such a disgustingly deceptive way to represent what he said.

He said "covid-19" is ethnically targeted and attacks disproportionately caucasians and black people while others "races" are "mostly immune" in the context of biological weapons. (And tries to magic some imaginary race differences in the ACE receptor that supposedly justify this ethnic targeting)

That is literally how it was described in the text you quote, nothing deceptive in just repeating what he said, if anything you just proved he did say so.

Of course it is important to clarify that this is something he completely imagined and it has zero basis on anything outside of the realm of his worm, no papers at all even hit to this "targeting" he lies when he claims otherwise.

LOL! You calling someone else an unscientific crank is the height of irony.

Not me, the scientific community have done that for decades, when you have to reduce yourself to make personal attacks instead of addressing this reality you simply prove you have no arguments against the scientists that have repeatedly criticized him for his lies and actions that have caused actual deaths.

And that is ok. He has a right to believe what he wants and to bring about or challenge other like-minded scientists who believe the way he does.

He has no right to promote his mistaken ideas when they have been repeatedly debunked, specially when that puts in danger the population. Having other people being as wrong as he to go with him is not the strong argument you think it is, it just means you can easily see how people that are willing to be wrong in public for personal profit tend to gravitate togheter.

What he can't ever do is to prove his beliefs are correct, which is understandable because he has zero qualifications (and an accepted mental disability), not so understandable for other people that should know better.

I think he will be confirmed.

This is in response to you claiming he would be a star and nominated by the democrats, which makes still absolutely no sense since he is a prime example of what that party has been criticizing. You make no argument to refute this.

Not me, the scientific community have done that for decades, when you have to reduce yourself to make personal attacks instead of addressing this reality you simply prove you have no arguments against the scientists that have repeatedly criticized him for his lies and actions that have caused actual deaths.

You commonly make the mistake of lumping all scientists together and inventing a consensus based on opinions you agree with. This is simply low-grade sophistry. There's a wide range of scientific opinion on various vaccines and how safe and effective they are. Not all experts in the field disagree with Kennedy, so you'd be well advised to withdraw your accusation.

Conspiracy theorists should be here for our amusement. It’s teenagers and stunted adults trying to appear perceptive and intelligent.

Don’t employ them in any capacity, let alone in positions of responsibility

You commonly make the mistake of lumping all scientists together and inventing a consensus based on opinions you agree with.

It is not my fault that the only public declarations from scientific sources addressing RFKjr do it in a terribly negative light based on his lies and deceptions. Which respected scientists say he is right? I would be very interesting to see the evidence they have that proves all the different times he has contradicted well supported conclusions (because obviously someone supporting him without any evidence would not be a scientist in the first place, much less an expert).

There is no sophistry involved, medical and scientific professionals have been repeatedly quoted criticizing him as someone nefarious that has caused deaths.

The Democrats put a cackling utter nut job in as their presidential candidate

Personal opinions are not arguments, which person was candidate that has systematically rejected the scientific consensus? a big point of the democratic candidates was that republican denial of scientific truths would hurt the country badly, RFKjr is a prime example of these criticisms so it makes no sense to think he would be accepted as anything from this party.

He's a nutjob. He wouldn't get a job in a Democrat administration.

The Democrats put a cackling utter nut job in as their presidential candidate. And lost badly. Kennedy has nothing on her when it comes to crazy.

Incompetent person, not a nut job.

Important distinction.

RFK is absolutely crackers.

Think back to when Trump started with his whole "Covid-19 is a hoax" thing.

Many, many people died of Covid as a result of this. Remember Herman Cain, as a high profile example? Social media is full of other such stories.

The MAGA response was simply to try and shift the semantics of it (the whole "died OF or died WITH" thing).

America is now at a point where half the country literally wouldn't care if another pandemic came along and ripped through the country, as long as "their guy" was in charge of the response.

I would love it if, as a form of trolling, Anthony Fauci rebranded himself as a hardcore Trumper and held a press conference in a MAGA hat, advising everyone to get vaccinated against what might be coming. The cognitive dissonance among the MAGAts would be priceless.

it's interesting that "dying to own the libs" is a commonly used phrase, and yet you never see "dying to own the MAGATs"...

There are loads of properly qualified doctors and scientists who are happy to see Kennedy get this job because they're sick and tired of a thoroughly corrupt FDA hampering their efforts to make sick people healthy and forcing them to give dangerous treatments under threat of losing their licence to practice.

I assume that asking you to provide a list of said "qualified doctors and scientists" would either result in the "do your own research" line or a list of people on X...
