RFK Jr. is embarrassing himself before Congress

[The Real timschochet 7,058]

In real time. 
 

Of all the incompetent people that Trump has appointed to important positions this MAY be the worst. (I say “may” because Hegseth, Gabbard, Pirro are all good candidates as well) But damn is this guy a total moron. 

[The Real timschochet 7,058]

“The CDC is corrupt, filled with incompetent people. They are killing children.” 

Direct quotes from this moron. 
 

The Republicans on the panel are not exactly defending him. But they’re mostly silent. Their complicity is shameful.

At this point you don't even need qualifiers. Congressional Republicans are shameful, period, full stop. Never seen a more ineffectual, useless, contemptible body of wealthy, stupid, elderly gasbags.

No argument. But at least they’re willing to challenge Kennedy.

No reason to have an HHS is a heroin addicted weirdo like RFK Jr. involved. We’d be better off dissolving the agency until there’s better leadership.

WARNER: Do you accept the fact that 1 million Americans died from covid?

RFK Jr: I don't know how many died

WARNER: You're the secretary of health and human services. You don't have any idea how many Americans died from covid?

RFK Jr: I don't think anybody knows that because there was so much data chaos coming out of the CDC

WARNER: How can you be that ignorant?

BREAKING: Senator Raphael Warnock just called for RFK Jr. to resign:

"For the first time, we are seeing deaths of children from Measles. We haven’t seen that in two decades. We are seeing that under your watch. You are a hazard to the American people. I think that you ought to resign."

What's your point? That a bunch of Dems rallied around grampa Biden? Yup, they sure did. And I've said repeatedly that I blame the DNC and Biden's wet nurses close advisors entirely for that sham and believe they should be testifying to Congress for what they did, which was perpetuate fraud on the American people.

Now about those shameful bastages that have abdicated their own power, authority, and responsibility to their corrupt POTUS...

You realize vaccination rates have been going down since before RFK Jr's "watch," right? 

Even when my son was born in 2002, there were MANY anti-vax moms out there because of the whole autism thing still being believed back then. Throw in migrants who come here and don't get them, religious exemptions, etc. Vax rates are lower in general. 

Blaming this solely on RFK Jr is ridiculous.

Quote

In addition to case counts, the dashboard also provides data on measles cases by age and by vaccination status. Unsurprisingly, nearly all 2025 cases have occurred in those who are unvaccinated or whose vaccination status is unknown. Cases have been reported across a wide age range, indicating that this outbreak was years in the making due to long-standing gaps in measles vaccine coverage.

I don't have the information on all the deaths, however it does not appear that they were vaccinated.

Texas announces second death in measles outbreak

The Texas Department of State Health Services is reporting the second measles death of a Texas resident in the ongoing outbreak centered in the state's South Plains region. The school-aged child who tested positive for measles was hospitalized in Lubbock and passed away on Thursday from what the child’s doctors described as measles pulmonary failure. The child was not vaccinated and had no reported underlying conditions.

So I guess he wasn't in the TX public school system or had underlying conditions that didn't allow for vacinations or the family choose not to for religious reasons. Either way, there was a mandate in place and it still happened

Straw Man. Warnock is not blaming this solely on RFK Jr. He thinks he should resign for his stance against vaccinatioins.

“The whole process was politicized. Senator, I mean, we were lied to about everything.”

“We were lied to about natural immunity. We were lied to about, you know, we were told again and again, the vaccines would prevent transmission. They'd prevent infection. It wasn't true. They knew it from the start. It wasn't true because that's what the animal studies in the clinical trials showed. We were told that there was science behind cloth masks.”

“The CDC allowed the teachers union to write the order closing our schools, which hurt working people all over the country, and then pretend it was science-based.”

“President Biden said in August, I would never take that vaccine, the Trump vaccine. And he came in, he mandated it, and then he fired the two top health officials at FDA who said, hey, this thing has not been properly tested. So the whole process was politicized even today.”

I'm not following his testimony, as I'm sure @The Real timschochet isn't either.  Tim is just listening to some talk radio or something b*tching about RFK.  We all know Tim never independently verifies anything; he just follows the talking points.  But anyways, did RFK actually say the above?  Because it's 100% spot on.  So we've got all these people whining about the PERSON and not his POLICIES, as is typical with them.

Rachel Levine was assistant to the head of HHS. She was also a state physician general and secretary of health before HHS, not a heroin addict with no medical background like Crackhead Rob. HTH.
