What’s wild to me: NOW, media outlets & medical organizations are “stunned” by the damage RFK Jr. is doing to CDC, other health agencies, & public health. Me & my colleagues have been screaming about him for years. Years. Even more so in the last year. We were called hyperbolic. 1/
Because there’s a lot of money being funneled from John Birch Society and other right wing grifters.
Gosh am I glad I live inn Europe.
Be careful what you wish for.
If he wasn't a Kennedy he would have been institutionalized years ago.
Lulz like no Kennedy has ever been institutionalized. Rosemary Kennedy’s institutionalization is the reason Eunice Kennedy Shriver founded the Special Olympics, and the inclusive Camp Shriver.
I know. I attended a Special Olympics event Eunice Shriver sponsored. It meant so much to her she was there, in rural Louisiana. The Kennedy family has long supported such charities. This is far more than family dynamics. They know he's dangerous. people.com/rfk-jr-sibli...
Or homeless. And then institutionalized if maga gets its way. Or dead from addiction, without the cushy support system to help him survive that.
Media outlets should be shut down for not doing their jobs. They got us here
The failure of the MSM to question the lies and make excuses for Trump's authoritarian agenda is how we got here. Two options: The media are colossal idiots or they knowingly ignored it b/c media is owned by oligarchs and they didn't want to lose their jobs. Hint: I don't think they are all idiots
Did you, a PHD, just start a sentence with “me”? You’re right about everything else.
You are so right! Trump politicized medicine during COVID. People died. Now an entire medical misinformation industry has sprung up. Old people are throwing away statins for snake oil. And on and on.
Here's why media did this. upine.medium.com/why-mainstre...
“ My colleagues & ‘ I ‘…” 🤦🏻♀️
Really the journalists seem to be doing nothing.
I'm so sorry, I hope it's not too late but I'm scared...
He is a FREAK...AN INSANE FREAK
1) Dumb ‘em down (assaults on education) 2) Feed their irrational fears (outgrowth of # 1) 3) Enact draconian policies which will, in one way or another, kill millions 4) Assure them it’s all for the best and what “Americans want” Only the wealthy and cunning survive. They did it masterfully. 😞
Caroline K. knew and warned us. None of this is a surprise The “wellness” industry made $2T in 2024. Oz ,Kennedy ,Means , All of them are grifters
Executive editors in America are supposed to be excellent writers with investigative prowess, integrity, ethical standards and moral wisdom, not groveling sycophants to political corruption and the broligarchy. Sadly the latter seems to be the norm. Always be wary of the media’s intentions.
I've been screaming right there with you!
Just wait a while, and they'll be blaming you for not warning them sooner.
Didn't Caroline Kennedy put out the alarm regarding RFK as well? The goal seems to be placing incompetent people that only follow orders.
Why isn't ivermectin helping this guy?
I don't think it works for insanity.😉😂
🤣🤣🤌
He's a ghoul. Anyone can see it.
You were right about RFK Jr. then, you are right about him now and you’ll always be right about him. RFK Jr. is a danger to public health, a danger to America and a danger to the world. He WILL cause thousands of people to die.
trump+kennedy=deadly combo
They could have read project 2025.
The sick are expendables, they add nothing to the fascist regime’s eugenics program… following goose step by goose step in Hitlers boots
One aspect of this, which requires ignorance and stupidity in addition to cruelty and narcissism, is that people like RFK Jr, whose primary health advantage has been wealth and privilege, believe that only “lesser” beings become ill. They spend their lives taking personal credit for their good luck.
Frat boy ethos on heroin.
Born on 3rd, thought they hit a triple.
Media only gives a damn about the ratings. NOW it’s “fashionable” for them to talk about him.
Why don’t they impeach RFK?? Democrats need to start fighting back! I am sure there has to be some sane republicans out there who don’t believe RFK conspiracies.
He only got a pass because of his name. 🤡💩
All they want to do is dismantle the gov. None of this should be shocking. The media eats it up.
Those who are 'stunned' now must have been 'numbed' before.
Be Aware: The current Covid vaccine eligibility requirement list has sneaky ways to mine information to find people eligible for eugenic type programs.
Beats me why people are stunned about anything concerning the Trump regime. As for RFK Jr., we knew that he's an antivaxxer who's determined to prove that vaccines cause autism. He's a crackpot.
#trumpvoters have known for at least a few yrs how dangerous he is but they voted for DJT, knowing #RFKjr was kissing his 🍑 for a job He got one, where he cld do the most damage & kill the most Americans Interesting that the DJT voters will be most vulnerable to him, just out of sheer stupidity
Those jerks know exactly what they're doing. RFK has a gig. Not bright. A stooge that will do whatever he's told. And I feel they want to thin the population. The science is real. Anyone intelligent gets it.
Dude, EVERYONE that warned that these motherfuckers were massively unqualified were called hyperbolic. So many of us were shouting it.
The media served Trump because his lunacy meant ratings and ratings meant money. But their golden chicken is no longer profitable so they are turning back to reporting news not passing gas and spewing propaganda.
There is 100% certainty that when the shit hits the fan, the media will run out of the back door, run around to the front and bang on the door with the rest of us. And IF we still have a country and IF the Democrats manage to take back power, it will be their fault for not fixing it fast enough.
You know, I don’t trust the Democratic Party anymore. Their leadership has been too complicit for far too long.
And yet somehow the Republicans are leaps and bounds more deserving of defeat, so what to do?
Watered down or not what we need are Dems that fight LOUD & DIRTY. The chuck Schumer's of the world are how we got here
Gee, I learned all the reasons that RFK Jr is dangerous from reading articles by the media.
Has he made any health decisions that make sense? That will actually help a single person? Help prevent disease, sickness?
republicuns knew just how devastating he would be and they still ALL voted to confirm him. They're complicit.
👹the Braindead Sheeple are Distracted by the Kennedy name FFS!
And yet, the Kennedy clan has not banded together to make PSAs and interviews, loudly & in unison, decrying RFK Jr’s insane notions & actions. It might go a long way for such a respected, educated & public service oriented family to make unified statements.
I think the reason is that few imagined such a nutcase would find his way into any kind of power. But I’m so naive-I thought the idea anyone would vote for trump for president was laughable. But here we are.
There was absolutely no MSM investigative reporting done on this quackpot during his presidential run. And it was all out there for the taking. From his well documented junk science anti vax tirades to his straight up racism (covered by deceased NY Newsday journalist Len Levitt)
Years of smart, aware, capable people being told they’re overreacting to chaos agents never seems to pivot to, “You were right,” when chaos runs the ship.
He needs to be ousted from his position - dangerous to the people
👍👏🙏
Thank you for your service.
Very few, if any, are stunned, everyone is just covering their own asses for allowing it/aiding and abetting it. Add that to the fact people in power and with a voice are loathe to admit how obvious it was because then they'd have to call half the electorate abhorrent idiots for voting for it.
I agree, except: I think it’s mainly themselves they fear being called out as abhorrent idiots. And for so badly misleading that electorate. And maybe, just a little bit, they’re afraid to piss off the more violent elements of the citizenry. Which, not coincidentally, are the very folks they misled.
once a junkie… always a junkie
He must GO!! 👎👎🚫🚫
Several media outlets have been sounding alarms about RFK Jr.’s misinformation even during his candidacy, and have continued.
Thank you. I am shocked that this dangerous kook has been taken seriously. I know, I shouldn’t be.
Journalists ignored his well-documented history & wrote flattering articles about him. He’s doing the same shit he has for 40 YEARS. Did you actually think he’d stop being an anti-science profiteer? Of course not. Now he’s got the power and authority of the Federal government behind him. 2/
Journalists did NOT write flattering articles about him. He was called out before the election and still made it through nomination process by the senate. This is what America wanted. Quit living in denial. As unfortunate a fact that this is, we asked for this
What the current Senate wants is not what America wants. They don't represent Americans and they don't do what Americans want.
Well, you can believe in fairy tales but they decide policy. Nothing you say about them matters because their states elected them. Decision made 🤷🏻♂️
A woman in our neighborhood has been pushing RFK Jr’s Children’s Health Defense newsletters on local social media for years. Everyone dismissed her as nuts. Now she’s strutting around like she won a marathon. 😩
American journalists have let everyone down.
Most are mediocre at best.
That means he’s going to accelerate what he’s been doing for decades. The Senate ushered that in, knowing full well his history. I’ve written so much about him I’ve organized a section of my newsletter under “RFK Jr” Find them all here ⬇️⬇️⬇️ 🔗 news.immunologic.org/t/rfk-jr 🧵
No one cares. People want Maha
Tons of oldies are firmly MAGA because of the racism but they still love their pharma and processed foods.
Dumb people

#WhyDoRepublicansWantToKillUs?
I literally have to write an “RFK JR” updates report for the chief medical executives of my healthcare organization on a monthly basis. Started during his campaign when he went over to MAGA.
Susan Collins and Bill Cassidy were key votes getting RFK senate confirmation
Yes, they should hang their heads in shame.
Also Lisa Murkowski
Bill Cassidy, a physician, cast the deciding vote confirming RFK Jr. Never let anyone forget that.
The disgrace should follow then for the rest of their lives. And beyond.
Carve a note into their headstones so that the generations who follow them will know what bastards they were. #NotifyTheFuture
Use chalk for Susan Collins'. She hates that. www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/05...
The monster from Maine is kept in her post through out of state money funding her campaigns. She’s as corrupt as they come. #TrumpToady
And Susan Collins is *shocked* at the direction things have gone
Oh.
Yeah. What another jerk.
Susan Collins has a handler
she is a coward, as have been damn near ALL the Republicans in the Senate)... and it's been even worse in the House... they have aided/abetted MAGA and deserve nothing except contempt, history will treat them as such
“ I am shocked, simply shocked there’s madness going on here” ( apologies to Casa Blanca and Claude Raines)
She is also “concerned”
And "alarmed"
Good ol convern - Best political strategy ever. 😂👍🙂↔️
🤬
🤬
🤬
📌
Journalists are STILL WRITING flattering articles.
I see way more critical articles than flattering
From the hellhole: x.com/braddroflit/...
All I can tell you is that RFKjr parlayed his name and his record as a respected environmental lawyer into a corrupt assault on medical science. it’s served him and Republicanism well, giving antivaxxers a ‘legitimate’ platform to buoy the GOP’s own fears of demographic electoral shortfalls and $$.
It's funny* to me because the ascendancy of RFK Jr is dispositive of the very "big pharma deep state" he bleats about. *actually not funny, gives me the screamies
And the doctor that voted to confirm him should lose him medical license
💯💯💯
You were certainly right to try and draw attention to him. Now people are becoming concerned about his crazy ideas, after the damage has been done. This entire administration and the Republican Congress are responsible for this disaster.
Cassandra says: Deliberate Increase in Excess Deaths Remember folks: The curse is ALWAYS tell the truth and never be believed. Cassandras arn’t wrong. Everyone else is in denial.
Me has been screaming…? You have a PhD?
Dr Love. No doubt an erudite professional knows the proper use of “I” and “me”. Not knowing that just gives the distinct impression you are not very educated.
I got a plan to solve this problem,follow me. open.substack.com/pub/hansette...
How many Americans has RFKjr committed to killing & what’s in it for Trump?
Look up sadism and dark triad.
California can fix this. California Center for Disease Control & Prevention Hire all that have been fired. We did it with stem cell research, we can do it now with this. It will also juice California's economy big time.
Thank you, California!
The problem is, it’s expensive. Most of our state public health is federally funded and we are in chaos trying not to lay people off. With the cuts to Medicaid, Governors are scared. Even in blue states. That’s probably why they’re exploring “soft secession.”
Then we stop giving the fed Ca money. All the answers are literally quite simple
Yup
It’s time for a hard secession.
All anybody had to do was hear him deliver his waffling palaver at his hearing to know he is unfit. In subsequent Congressional hearings he was unaware of what his department was doing.
He needs to be committed to a mental institution and not allowed out to infect others with his viral brain disease.
Yes! I first became aware of RFK Jr when he was on Air America “Ring of Fire”. I can’t now remember what he said — but I remember it was something that I looked up, and discovered was not very accurate. I stopped listening to ROF. I remember people would talk about him in somewhat glowing ways
At the time, I didn’t say anything. I didn’t see the danger. I just kept quiet, and figured “well, I guess he’s not for me…” Looking back, I should have said something because now I think by staying quiet about my concerns, I allowed him to be enabled. We need to be careful about who we put trust in
I also heard him re: anti-vaxx, way back in the early oughts. And spent a bunch of time looking up the actual facts. Realized he was lying, but had no idea he’d appeal to anyone beyond the gormless fringe. Whom I thought of as listening to him b/c they liked having a Kennedy validate their biases..
…I was wrong, too. Obvi. I now know what he did in Samoa, for example. He actually referred to the deaths of children in Samoa as an opportunity for a “natural experiment”, which he encouraged Samoan government officials to create by “respite from vaccines.” www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Me too. I was accused of drinking the kool aid by my own spouse
And now what websites are we to trust when we do our own research? Bc we certainly can't trust theirs, anymore.
Look to other countries' sites whom you would trust.
The crazy lunatic who every member of his own family warned us about.
Welp, Sirhan Sirhan is up for parole next year. Just sayin’
Except Pratt, who is 'just supporting family'. 🙄 Been screaming about that prick for years too.. Making his way up in 'the church' from what I hear...
RFK Jr is an arrogant SOB. No wonder he asked Aaron Rogers to be his potential VP running mate. Arrogance begets arrogance…white male privilege begets white male privilege. Keep the pressure on…DRAG him & the corrupt GOP who enable his negligence.
The press spent a lot of time trying to make rfk jr look good by focusing on his anti preservatives and additives schtick, while glossing over his core anti science ideology...
RFK Jr is co co! A method of improving the human race, eugenics was increasingly discredited as unscientific & racially biased especially after the adoption of its doctrines by the Nazis in order to justify their treatment of Jews, disabled people, & other minority groups.
Well, whoever called you hyperbolic, can't do it anymore! Fight on, American lives depend on it.
