    I think his brainworm wants to take over the world, like in the tv show brain dead

  2. Is there a consolidated list of all the crap this administration has done that can be viewed? And can we get that in the hands of the next candidate as a “fix it” list?

    BRAWNDO!!! ITS GOT ELECTROLYTES!!!

    You’re heading there America. You really are.

  4. No one, absolutely no one, tell me that this admin isn’t trying to get rid of the majority of the population.

  5. this kind of stuff stresses me out more than it probably should… my mom works in healthcare and growing up I’d hear her talk about how much those expert panels actually matter behind the scenes

    it always sounded boring as a kid, but now I realize how much of our safety quietly depends on people we never even see

    just feels weird watching things like that get pulled apart… like you don’t notice it until something goes wrong 😕

  6. Wasn’t it some Russian leader back in the day who said they didn’t need to wage war on the US, they could just destroy it from within?

  7. Seems like the general plan for everyone in this administration. Destroying everything.

  8. Currently measles, meningitis, rabies is going up. If another pandemic hits we are fucked.

  9. America will never recover from this unless the punishment these people receive after their trial is front-page news that dissuades other like-minded people from ever trying this again for generations to come.

    RFKJr is personally responsible for more spreading more disease than any other public figure in US history except for maybe Axl Rose

  11. 4th world shithole incoming

    remember when people thought he’d actually “make america healthy” for some reason lol. dumbfucks

  12. Everyday there’s a story that proves ‘both siders’ are completely out of their minds. 

  13. I think we should start referring to preventable communicable diseases collectively as the Kennedy diseases. It’s a useful way to tarnish the legacy of a whole family.

    The Kennedy family has been vocal about his opposition and the person below provided to some awesome links!

  15. It’s going to be hard to figure out which of Trump’s second term appointments did the most long term damage to America.

    Yeah Trump himself is the most obvious pick but a good successor (which I am iffy on America even electing a good successor) can undo a lot of the damage he did.

    RFK is laying the groundwork for the next major health crisis to devastate America. That kind of infrastructure and knowledge cannot be rebuilt easily.

  16. You should be required to have a medical degree to be appointed secretary of health and human services. Instead we got an idiot who thinks vaccines give you autism. This entire administration is a joke. November can’t come soon enough.

  17. Jesus Christ! The administration is doing their best to destroy this nation. I cannot believe that nothing has been done about it.

  18. yeahnoyeahsure on

    This is going to be way more impactful than it initially seems. This guy is essentially breaking our health defense system. He’s a psychopath

    This was all planned from the beginning. It’s probably part of Project 2025 from the Heritage Foundation, iirc. They hate government. They’re trying to destroy as much of it as they can. It’s their primary objective. They did the same thing with the Reagan administration, another brain trust of a president.

    Hard to be a shittier or more hypocritical American than a Republican these days.
