He doesn't need RFK to run the FDA, because Trump is going to just scuttle it entirely.
Science bad! Doctors bad! Let the drug companies do what they want! Freedumb y'all!
You spelt ruin incorrectly.
Spelt is a type of grain
Type means writing on a keyboard
Lest anyone think this is about policy or even politics - it ain't.
This is about the wrong guy getting the headlines. Simple as.
Broken clock. But honestly this is for the best old brain worm is insane.
Buddy you gotta learn about commas semicolons and other grammar tools that make sentences like this one easier to read and digest even if you might think this is easy to read it's really got a hol-up lemme reread that vibe to it you know?
This is legit the best political news this week by a wide margin. It’s still gonna fucking suck but at least we won’t have to worry about fucking polio on top of it
Kentucky voted to keep public taxpayer dollars from going to private schools.
It's not much, but it's a small win for us.
Let's see if that even matters. Red States have a history of ignoring votes like that.
Good work Kentucky! I don’t get to say this enough but I’m proud of you.
Not sure about Kentucky, but I know some wingers were concerned about a bill in Colorado and school funds meaning that the government would be peeking into how you did home schooling...so while they were not necessarily opposed to getting the government cheese for themselves, they were paranoid about "too much government" in their lives because they were getting money...
I wish Texas could’ve done the same, but Governor Hot Wheels is bound a determined to take us all back to the 20’s.
I was considering starting an Iron Lung manufacturing company
Thank you, I hope you're right.
Wait a second, you mean Trump just used the guy and is now dropping him like a half-eaten Big Mac? I am shocked. SHOCKED, I say.
Don’t be ridiculous.
Trump would never eat only half a Big Mac
Half eaten salad? No, he'd never eat any of a salad. Not enough cholesterol.
But it’s a hamburger salad?
(Yeah, that didn’t work in the 5yo either.)
I think that’s the answer. He’d eat the hamburger half.
Maybe if it was covered in ketchup like a well done steak
These words are violence.
As a nearly 80 year old man who is likely eating a fistful of pills every morning, he might want to ensure that the FDA is still regulating that stuff.
You don't really need that if you have access to money. You just get a real doctor, not one of the quacks that you drag out for political theater to appease the ignorant conspiracy loving base.
US drugs unsafe? import them from europe or directly from the pharmaceutical company that makes them.
The only people who get fucked by these decisions are the "normal" people without great wealth or connections.
Imagine thinking a Donald Trump promise holds any value
A trump never pays his debts
Donald Trump's promises are a solid as the water they're written on.
As solid as the bowel movements in his diaper.
Unless it has anything to do with making rich people richer, racism, or women... And u can be damned sure it will happen... And we all know it's not for the better
Only inasmuch as it personally enriches him
Nobody wants JFK Jr in charge of their health, not even Trump and they knew it from the start. But good to see.
Now hopefully he drops Elon as well!
So we're past the "big tent" stage and to the "Stabbing in the back" stage.
That took what like a quarter of a mooch?
Just wait until him and Elon get at each others' throats.
Grifter got used and dumped. You serve no purpose anymore.
All the alternative health community who voted for Trump got their comeuppance quick.
Well I got to say I'm relieved that he's backstabbing the right people... So far. Well honestly anybody they'd be counted as backstabbing I wouldn't mind.
First they came for RFK jr and I did nothing because I'm not a brain worm...
Then they came for the boot licking senators, and I did nothing because I'm not a boy licking senator.
Then they came for people I cared about and by that time I was prepared because I know they are coming for me
I'm not a boy licking senator
This isn't even a typo!
Cheezus, this is a win and I’ll take it.
Fucking coward. Own up to your shitty beliefs.
Trump? He actually believes they work. He made sure he got vaccinated. He just knows he can pander with it.
He sent vaccines to Putin even.
It was testing machines newly developed by Abbott Labs, not single use tests. You know they immediately reverse engineered that too
I don't know if it was vaccines, but he sent tests to him when we didn't have enough for our own citizens. You know, America First sort of things.
Oh, maybe it's was tests is what I read
