RFK, Jr. will injure and kill as many people as Covid did with his policies. No science or facts, no prevention measures to ward off another pandemic, no vaccines, no research into disease prevention - like for cancer and measles, no remedies for diseases. He is a Master of Death.

If Trump were intentionally trying to destroy the country, how would his actions be different from what we see from him every day?

"So I guess we can assume that, rather than people with any expertise remotely related to vaccines and vaccine safety, he’ll replace them with … Jenny McCarthy? Concerned moms from various Facebook groups? Alex Jones? A few dowsers? Folgers Crystals?"

Awesomeness! 👏🏼 Especially the reference to McCarthy...I'd given her kudos back inna day when she'd said, "Correlation is not causality, dumb ass." But *everything* else she was saying and would say back then was hot, steaming, stanky bullshit.😏

Stock Tip!

Buy Moderna so you can watch them screw Trump when the birdie flew hits!

I'm not much for conspiracies but let's make a list: 1) Compromise the health care system during 2) a measles outbreak and 3) a potential bird flu outbreak and 4) a resurgence of COVID amidst 5) a tariff-induced economic downturn during 6) a summer that promises to break records for heat, drought, flooding, wildfires, tornadoes, and hurricanes after 7) gutting NOAA while 8) abusing civil rights and 9) compromising food safety, air travel safety, and allowing 10) infrastructure to rot while 11) law enforcement takes on a murderous posture and, well, it seems to me that somebody somewhere wants shit to go really, really, really wrong. But for why?

Ta, Robyn. I thought I was acclimating to the dangerous incompetence of this maladministration, but no. I'm glad I got my Moderna booster. I'm glad we don't have children.

1) ACIP meetings have always been completely open to the public. ANYONE can attend and ask questions. Will RFK now prevent public participation in ACIP meetings? Will he shut down the science and scream deadly mumbo jumbo through his megaphone? 2) Rotavirus sickens millions of children worldwide where the disease is endemic due to lack of clean water and sanitation. Further, the disease kills hundred of thousands, primarily because of dehydration. 3) Regarding Rota Virus and Rota Shield (circa 1997) - the risk of intussusception from the disease was higher than from the Rota Shield vaccine because the virus causes severe diarrhea while the vaccine prevented the majority of severe diarrhea cases. Even though Rota Shield was not on the market long enough to show it's life-saving potential, it did reduce worldwide hospitalizations for Rota Virus by 70%.

JFK in his own way is far more of a deadly monster than trump.

I've had a phrase running through my head since I got up - that phrase is "government in exile." Not exactly a government in exile as happened during the second World War, but just for some functions. For instance - RFK Jr has fired the entire CDC vaccine advisory committee. Of course they are individuals ... but they are also a team. What if we could find a way to keep them together and fund them so they could continue their life-saving work. They might not even need to be outside the country, though they probably should be very secret. The same goes for government funded medical research and the National Weather Service - and other life saving groups being torn up and cast aside because the current regime is a death cult. Solid journalism outside the U.S. already exists, such as The Guardian - I don't know how helpful it would be to fund historians to archive it, but it's a thought. Basically, just functions which could enable us eventually to hit the ground running when the time comes to restore civilization. I'm not a millionaire - far from it - I depend on social Security - but there is a PAC called "Patriotic Millionaires. I don't know whether they might have some interest. It might turn out to be more effective in the long run than duplicating the obvious protests everyone else is doing.

New Vaccination Board Members: “We don’t have any conflict of interests in regards to vaccines, but would you like to purchase a vat of our special exclusive board-approved cherry-flavored horse paste?”

I'd bet good money that RFK jr. ends his days in a lunatic asylum.

Kirsty Gnome-Poledance Himmler's avatar

Well, he is the picture of health. Kind of like King Tut.

I'm getting a not-yet-updated COVID-19 booster next week because I have doubts that an updated booster will be available this late summer. While I'm at it, I'll get a Tdap and a PCV20 because I have actual fears that other vaccines will be discontinued.

Sojourner44's avatar

I'm still convinced that Ethel dropped infant RFK jr. on his head.

Liz Rhodes's avatar

Does this mean there WONT be an updated flu vaccine this year???

I love having a President with a 40 word vocabulary.

I used to think the President must be the smartest man in the world.

"We will deal with protestors very very strongly."

"I am negotiating with President Xi very very strongly."

"The National Guard is treating the protestors very very strongly."

"I smell very very strongly."

Why learn a whole bunch of fanch book words, 'n such, when you only need a dozen or so?

He actually said “big force” twice before “heavy”. It would be telling to give the awkward language a full airing.

oscarphile's avatar

You know, I bet he's afraid he WON'T get protesters. He's such a fame-starved slut that being ignored would be a fate worse than death.

What if everyone RSVPs, then doesn't show?

You know the TikTokers are doing that bigly.

How did it happen that we have such a jackass for "president" who doesn't understand the Constitution? Hey, Donnie-boy, ever heard of the first amendment? Huh? Huh? Hint: it's the very first one.

I'd like to introduce you to the Electoral College

Come on. Abrams tanks are big, but they're not that big.

The plan to kill as many of us via miasma, pestilence and famine is going swimmingly. This'll be great on an actuarial basis for many financial-based industries too with all that unclaimed wealth and property.
