F—king immoral cowards. All 53 of them. I am including McConnell because it is on him that we are in this bullshit.

Every Dem against. Every Republican except McConnnell for. There’s only one party that serves the American people.

Fuck you McConnell You think we care about your vote NOW? Asshole

Thank you!!! And this deserves a follow

back at you

Indeed!

Yep.

The Biden Administration helped pave the way for all of this -- maybe if they held Republican crooks accountable, we'd have the semblance of a functioning government. Instead, we're well beyond even "Idiocracy." America is a shit show riding around in a clown car on the way to a dumpster fire.

Rfk Jr should focus his efforts on red states first to reward them for electing such supportive senators.

I hope he feels the rumblings of his father and uncle, turning in their graves in what’s left of his heroin ridden, worm brain eaten soul.

Well one GOP old geezer still has balls.

Call 202-224-3121 & Text PXHTGI to 50409 to save #Medicaid, my doctors, medications, & housing! Do it now!!

idiocy reigns

NOW WE KNOW WHY IVANKA TRADEMARKED CHEAP COFFINS IN CHINA. FOR MAGA Republicans GOP & Farmers AND RFK JR.

Covid19disease.bsky.social This page is a good follow if you want real health updates. For example the flu is raging in some states but our own government will not be sharing that now.

#Shameful

We will not be able to rely on our food being inspected, our medicines safe, access to vaccines, all of it. FOTUS et al lie so much we will never know what is true

He didn’t win out/over anybody in the senate. Those senators were told how to vote under threats and worse from the overbaked yam himself.

This will be deadly. But there will be no info. this cabinet is so bad it will cave in. But it will be difficult. And take time. People must stay strong and resist. Chip away. Jordan stood up. Egypt stood up. Germany stood up. resist

Not that it matters now, but it just shows you McConnell knew better the whole time.

Did any Dems vote for him? We want to know

I never thought I'd see the United States become a more backwards country than Iran.

💯

Many thought the US had become a "sick" nation but that version of sickness will be insignificant should Mother Nature kick in & you're unprepared. Think you're tough? Take on Mother Nature. All preventable! Republican Senators! Get personal. Get very personal! This needn't have happened.

The maga cultists supporting RFK Jr will come crying when their children, grandchildren get sick & die from diseases that had been eradicated or kept from spreading throughout society because of vaccines. This is simply ratified murder.

Agree

We are doomed with this collection of weirdos, losers, bootlickers, and russian puppets "running" our country

Too bad McConnell didn’t stand up to trump when he was relevant and the head of his party ….. it would have meant something.

I didn't know America was so easy to take over and destroy.

We are on our own.

Shame on Mitch McConnell , a polio survivor. A pox on this coward!

Where was McConnell when we needed him? Nothing he could ever do now would change my opinion of him.

I just don't understand how he could be so stupid. Now you want to vote against a dictatorship???

Never Thought I See The Day Republicans Would Approve A Kennedy Of People No Matter Who's Side Their #FuckRFK #FuckTrump #FuckMusk

It doesn't matter. McConnell is on my 'never forgive' list.

HE HAS A SPECIAL SEAT AT THE DEVIL'S TABLE WAITING FOR HIM.

Feel awful for the children who are about to get measles and polio

Measles is a terrible thing. Because of a possibly improperly stored dose of vaccine, my son was not protected. He got measles at age 10, then encephalitis. One of the scariest times of my life. He’s fine. A lot of kids won’t be.

And anyone who will die of flu. Even young healthy people die of flu

There is already a measles outbreak in Texas.

They can’t deny vaccines , what Kennedy thinks or wants, is it to be optional. So .. the ones who are truly anti vax will get their way

Who wants to start organizing bus trips to Canada to get our vaccinations?!

Are they taking refugees?

Can we even get passports?

That’s if Meathead hasn’t annexed us.

We are now nothing more than a 3rd world country.

Countdown till next pandemic. RFK Jr. confirmed. Have you gotten your Polio booster? When is the Bird Flu vaccine going to be available?

They don't dare suffer the wrath of Trump.

he should have let Obama have a supreme court pick. this would have put an end to the reign of the far right on the court

And Susan Collins voted yes , AGAIN! She may be the dumbest woman in Congress. And that is saying a lot at this point. How does she live with herself. Maine, YOU CAN DO BETTER!!

She’s pretty fresh off her re-election. Maine has lost me as a visitor. Nice place. I’ll never go or spend there again.

She's afraid for her life because of MAGA. You know what Susie, sometimes, you have to do what's right and let the chips fall as they may.

She could have done the right thing and then retired. It would be justice if she died from one of the diseases that were previously eradicated before the anti-vaccination movement took over our country.

I cannot believe Maine voted for her again!

He didn’t win over anyone. This is theater. They will all be confirmed because Republicans in the Senate are either just as insane, or they’re afraid to go against De Fuhrer.

The only very small light in this tunnel is that maybe Mitch will start voting with the Dems for whatever that is worth.

The health of the nation has been gone for a while now. When did my 600 pound life come out? Let's say around there

Turning and turning in the widening gyre

Too little too late, McConnell.

This appointment has literally brought me to tears. I’m a cancer survivor and this man will be the death of many. As Vizzini would say, what has happened in this country is “inconceivable”

Fucking travesty. I have no words for this. Incomprehensible

Of course they did. Who haven't they confirmed that Pres. moron wanted.? HE wants he gets😒 Worse and most terrifying cabinet in history.

& some of us are sure to die quicker than others There is not enough LSD to even me out for this absolute bullshit

The only truly “qualified” person Trump has ever hired was Stormy Daniels.

I feel sick.

Along with the false ideal I grew up with for 73 years, “no one is above the law”. Can you imagine if we had got to see the evidence in the classified doc case? Trump would be a convicted traitor. I will never forgive Garland for his bottom up approach. It should have started with the ringleader!

An oxymoron.

Any child who loses their lives through a preventative vaccine this guy should be prosecuted along with the parent! We just signed off kids to this incompetent fool!

Well you already have a preventable outbreak of measles and TB spreading. Watch out for H5N1 and the rest of the world will keep you posted about the asteroid too.

Omg.

I knew that shit was gonna happen,this COUNTRY HAS OFFICIALLY GONE TO HELL IN A HAND BASKET

I feel sick already!

Moscow Mitch gets absolutely NO bonus points. Too little, too late.

a good idea One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too. Showing voters what a Democratic government would look like--press conferences, speeches

You’re a little too late, Mitch!

God, I hate Mitch Mcconnell. I hate him so much I can't even be happy he voted for the right thing on this. I wish he'd catch on fire. Or be swarmed by locusts. Maybe pelted by frogs. Some type of plague would be appropriate.

He has so far survived all the plagues thrown at him. Hopefully the plague-makers* have figured out how to get bird flu to circumvent his immune system … 🤞🏼 *who’s being blamed these days for plagues? Jina? The gays? DEI? I really wish they’d just post a memo somewhere.

Amen!

“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” -Jiddu Krishnamurti

The only reason McConnell voted with the Democrats is that he does not face reelection. This way, he thinks he can salvage his reputation. He is mistaken. He's reputation is one of a craven manipulator and liar, who is responsible for this madman at the helm.

No doubt, he carries ENORMOUS responsibility!

America to polio virus

Absolutely reckless and sickening-Just like they planned.

The law is gone. Our health is gone. Our security is gone. Education will soon be gone and we're about to become a police state. Took Hitler 53 days. Trump's going to do it in 30

In what crazy universe could this whacko be installed in that office? Oh wait..

tRump's lifesaving treatment for his coVID was extremely effective, as well as extremely expensive. He received a top level prescription cocktail and great medical care all paid for by the US taxpayers. Even then he could barely breathe. VID almost took him out.

It came closer than the sniper.

Let's not forget that he sent American's covid test/equipment to Vlad during the height of this epidemic. (Reported, then verified by the Kremlin)

🎯💯

💯facts. and that is a clear cut case of treason, betrayal of his oath of office and the chief reason he cannot serve, aside from everything else. and we know he knew damn well covid was real and deadly he said so on a phone interview with a journalist, who say on the evidence till he had a book deal

Our collective mental health has been questionable since the fall of 2016.

we are responsible for our own health next 4 years, no advice or disease warnings next 4 years.

Our health is shit. What are you even talking about. Literally common sense 🤦🏾‍♂️

I hope everyone got all their vaccs and diabetes meds last year. I’m fortunate to work for a multinational company that approved my relo to the UK. I saw the writing on the wall on Nov 6. I’m a former Republican who once believed America was a shining city on a hill. Good luck to all of you

Too little, too late turtle.

Starting to wonder if it even matters anymore, at what point do we accept the union cannot stand and secession has become necessary to protect people from preventable suffering?

Mitch talks a lot of shit them goes along anyway.

Susan Collins?

Too little, too late from Mitch. He’s got to be having regrets.

All of us.

I can’t even be surprised by this new administration any more, it goes from bad to worse! A cabinet full of deplorables! Hillary was right 🤦🏾‍♀️

Un f'in believable

I’m so embarrassed for our country. And heartsick for the children.

Bobby and Ethel are officially spinning at Arlington.

Actually, Ethel would probably be throwing a party at Hickory Hill!

Hardly.

Many will perish because of him and he gets off on this. God is watching and taking note. All those who voted for any GOP...this will be on your soul.

🤦🏻‍♀️😭Despicable. I'm 71.

Not sure what McConnell is trying to do. He goes down in history as the one who opened the gate and gave Trump the keys to democracy. POS

Moderate Republicans do not exist.

Well more dumb MAGA will be dying. In the end we will get whatever is left of our country back.

Past time to start impeachment proceedings.

McConnell’s only trying to erase his previous actions and leave a legacy that appears to be positive.

Nope. McTurtle is still an evil disgusting sleaze bag.

It seems like the health of our country is now in jeopardy, the mental health is already gone… IMO 🤦‍♀️🔥

Mitch is just a huge piece of traitorous 💩

There are *3* Republican Senators with MDs: Cassidy, Marshall and Hagerty. They have today renounced all rights of being referred to as “Doctor” in the future. Disgraces.

Can their medical licenses be revoked? Seems such an action because of their irresponsible action in voting for the worm-man would be a reasonable response.

McConnell is the main reason all this is happening in the first place. Humans have lost the capacity to see and respond amidst the noise and chaos of the Oligarch, kleptocrats, and criminals.

And that asshole had polio as a kid.

At least he's circling the drain at this point. Once he dies, hopefully, a dem will be elected in his place.

I’m doubt it. They could have had Amy McGrath but they voted for turtle instead. They also vote for Rand Paul!!

McConnell voted against RFK for that very reason.

If he wasn’t retiring I guarantee he would’ve voted yes. Now that he has nothing to lose he’s actually doing the right thing. Which just shows what a greedy, corrupt piece of trash that old fucker is. Most of this mess is his fault.

Try 5calls.org (also an app) makes calling daily super easy … plus great info

Can we please, for the love of all that is good, acknowledge that the Republican party are willing accessories to Trump's crimes. They are not cowards, there is no need to waste time wondering if they will go along. They want this. The abdication of justice has allowed the return of a king.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was confirmed as the new head of the US Department of Health and Human Services * Donald Trump’s appointees for the different federal agencies are hand puppets to speak through for Donald Trump’s “dictates”. *

SHAME on the GOP for allowing this crap! I really hope they all lose their seats in the upcoming elections!

I lay the blame for all of this at Mitch McConnell’s feet. When he was the Republican Majority Leader, he could have whipped Republican votes to convict trump on the second Impeachment

Truly devastating.

Too little, too late Mitch McConnell

People are going to die directly because of this confirmation. There will be blood on the hands of those who voted to confirm him.

YES and I am scared to death

WTAF. He is not a doctor, scientist, researcher. He’s never worked in the healthcare industry. He’s a a nut. #MakeAmericaSickAgain

Madness. God up us and the world.

I’m a medical professional and I am absolutely horrified and terrified about what he is going to do to my profession. How are we going to be able to treat patients when we have an anti-VAXEr running our health departments. How are we going to be able to give information that is factual?

Refuse to comply, give factual information whether they like it or not.

Count on it!

Do it anyway. The AMA is making content that is up to date and based on science instead of lunacy. It will be up to all of us to get that information from different sources than the .gov now. There are a few people to follow so we can spread the word. yourlocalepidemiologist.substack.com/about

He can’t control everything.

Mitch McConnell will go down in history as the most gutless evil manipulative human being that caused the end of our democracy by hiding as in his turtle shell and stocking the Supreme Court with the right wing nationalist that are destroying our democracy

Craven coward!

Bingo. Now he way too little too late ⏰ he lined his pockets for decades from lobbyists/Corporation. Money over country, over Americans. In good part we are where we are because of him and he knows it.

Paul Ryan was his co-conspirator, he cant be forgotten or left off the hook

His no vote is way too late.

We will see how they judge for everything that is meaningful to all Americans. We will see if our voice matters.

Mitch is so gross. Guy only votes with integrity and morals when he isn’t up for reelection? He can fuck all the way off into a black hole.

Every nominee was picked for their ability to destroy our government. Musk and Trump do not want a functioning, representative government, they want a tool to punish enemies and reward supporters.

They picked idiot puppets who will help massively downside the population of the USA and not get in the way of global conquest.

Exactly right. All the best people.

*…by making the rich richer and more powerful.

The twist is that even the supporters that are in the middle and lower class won't get much of a reward and will suffer as well

It is not only to destroy our government….. But also to destroy many of us…. Yes….i mean…kill us…..that is what Putin wants… And he has been smiling for a long time….knowing what horror is coming our way…. Look at the cabinet picks. His picks That will tell you what is about to happen to us

At the expense of our lives.

And, 100% backed by an entire political party.

Exactly!

Too little too late, Mitch.

You know he's absolutely horrible when the man who is responsible for where we are & has been a fierce fighter of Dems is now the sole resistor of the Republicans.

MAGA is not immune from any of this. I’ll never forgive them.

Since Trump is busy renaming things and RFK is now confirmed for the Department of Health and Human Services, could they please rename it The Department of Death and Funeral services?

Don't ever forget: his kids are all vaccinated.

Who really gives a fk about Mitch voting against RFK, it’s irrelevant at this point, if he’s trying to make his legacy any better it won’t work,he’ll never run again,and soon will be dead,but he’s the reason we’re here,with the SC and judges and giving the felon a get out of jail card

Exactly!

Mitch came to the show way too late. He needed to step up after either impeachment. He failed. Now he is irrelevant

All the sane countries are sitting there scratching their heads wondering if there is something in our water supply.

States really need to step up.

If McConnell showed loyalty to the USA during either of the impeachment trials, we would not be here today! Disloyalty to the USA has consequences!

And just like that…..

Shameful how the Democrats failed to promote their successes in last fall’s campaign and became locked out of any power and influence. Time for a new moderate opposition party to emerge.

McConnell trying to redeem himself from his no vote on Tulsi Gabbard.

Yup. Bravery when no blowback as he’s walking out the door

Mitch had his chances. He’s faking now.

Shame shame on all of those pathetic republicans Don't ever lecture democrats on ANYTHING!!

Demolition Of Government Entities - Close Schools. - Fire Teachers - Discontinue IEPs - Shut down farms - Cancel Aid - Cut Medicaid - Stop protecting consumers - Eliminate FEMA and disaster relief - Stop USAID - Fire essential government employees - Give billionaires more of your money

The new south under rF*k…

So many magats are going to die that they will never win another election…IF there are any more elections.

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Ummm he's going to make us all healthy again, what's the issue?

This is on Mitch! He had his chance to end the trump nightmare and didn’t do it😡!!

Mitch McConnell can kiss my ass.

Republicans are not serious people. They are in politics for their own personal gain, period.

Well they have always been. But now they have completely given up on the American people. Our democracy is over.

I guess I better load up on my drinkable bleach 🙄

What can we do now to protect our children? Our elderly? This man scares the crap out of me!

All those GOP Parents and Grandparents who voted yes better make sure that they get all their kiddos vaccinated before all vacs are banned. Wouldn't want one of them to get infected now would we?

I cannot believe I have not yet seen a photo of Oprah, a microphone in her right hand, pointing at the audience with her left hand, saying, "You get a brain worm, You get a brain worm, YOU get a brain worm! Everybody gets a brain worm!"

🤬🤮😢 my emotions today and the last few weeks.

Nevermind the fascism, we are being led by a Mobster Klan

Not an original thought, but democrats need a shadow HHS secretary to give science based rebuttals to any BS pedaled by RFk jr

The GOP see exceeding the people they killed from Trump's deliberately botched covid "response" during Trump 2.0 as a challenge they will more than meet.

Focusing on the appointment diminishes he’s a puppet. Trump is destroying the country.

It only took 53 days #DOGE is how he will do it. www-theatlantic-com.translate.goog/ideas/archiv...

When do we know we’ve gone from attempted coup to coup? Serious question.

When the coup leader didn't get jailed and got candidacy.

Kennedy is 100% correct on fluoridation and toxic chemicals in our food supply. Democrats ignored these most important issues. Meanwhile moms, country-wide, are avoiding foods that gov't officials claim are safe; but, upon investigation, aren't. So they turned to Trump to get RFK, jr.

Hey magas, when u start losing union jobs & lose homes & cars, while family & friends start dying from curable diseases w/out medical coverage,your children are starving & have no schools to go to & there’s no help available from your government… U VOTED 4 THIS

Seriously, I can’t believe that Mitch voting with Democrats is not one of the signs of the Apocalypse.

Jeeezus … even Mitch McConnell voted no.

Gotta be a nut ball to vote for one.

To put this in proper perspective, when McConnell was in charge of his party, he was known to be able to whip votes for anything. Now, all of a sudden, he's utterly powerless? Bullshit, he voted no knowing RFK Jr. would still get through. He deserves no accolades for his action today.

I have never felt more hopeless...

I’m so sorry to so see this happening to your country Joyce 💔💔💔

Scary how Republicans are so willing to approve these overtly unqualified picks, who will undoubtedly hurt Americans.

Carrot and stick, I imagine. I would love to see their incoming communications, although I doubt I actually would have the stomach to read it all

Supposed moderates like Murkowski and Collins will never learn that current MAGA Republicans will promise whatever they need to to get their confirmation votes and then do exactly the opposite of their promises to please the corrupt administration.

Shocked but not surprised.

Arrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I'm proud of the Democrats showing a united front.

I am, too. I'm disgusted by the repubs, who know better, but are choosing to destroy our country.

All for a malignant naraccist who can only care about himself.

Do republican congressman not have families that they care about…cause they’re going to die, too.

No they won't. They will have access that we won't.

Mitch McConnell is no hero here. His legacy will be allowing Trump to destroy the United States of America and nearly 250 years of democracy. His lust and quest for power destroyed him, and us.

I never thought I would see the words Mitch McConnell voted with the Dems

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who killed so many children in Samoa they ran out of child-sized coffins, has been confirmed to lead Health and Human Services. The vote was 52-48. All Dems and Mitch McConnell, whose fault this is, voted no. All other Republicans voted yes. The blood will be on their hands.

But at least we'll get new medical text-books...

When the updated version of Inferno from the Divine Comedy is released, Mitch McConnell is going to get a circle all his own

The entire Congress is letting down the American people to save their jobs from retribution from Trump if they vote for the right thing. Sickening the irreparable damage already done in 3 weeks

McConnell obviously has no sway with John Thune . SMH 🤦🏻‍♂️

Mitch now finding out he was the biggest enabler of the dismantling of our democracy. He’s an embarrassment

America we are on our own in regards to health and disease preventions. May I suggest masks until MAGA learns they are expendable.

McConnell is so brave when he knows his vote doesn't count

"won them over?" I'd say they took the knee to their precious overlord and pretended like they were being in any way circumspect about the decision. It's RICH that McConnell - Mr. OBSTRUCT EVERYTHING - is the lone hold out. F Him.

He only voted that way because it was safe to do so. Not because he actually cares if kids start getting polio.

He’s voting yes for his so-called legacy. Too little. Too late. You already sold the country out and Frankenstein is everybody’s problem.

We are truly on our own now.

McConnell enabled this madness because he arrogantly imagined he could control it. American Democracy is the victim of his ego. Only now is he starting to see his monstrous mistake. America will piss on his grave.

SPIT AND DANCE A JIG ON IT, TOO!

He did not win them over. They caved. They abandoned logic. They signed so many death warrants with their cowardice.

Is this the Mitch McConnell political atonement phase of his life?

Mother fckrs! I hate all of them!!

Trump names oil and gas advocate to lead agency that manages federal lands This 💩. The cabinet shall henceforth be “The Little Shop of Horrors”

www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKwk...

Hey Mitch, doesn’t feel so good to blow up democracy and now look back at all your shrapnel. You had a choice and this is what you chose. A dark legacy.

But it is really kind of all on Mitch. He could have stopped all this nonsense in its tracks by convicting Agent Orange when he was impeached... twice.

Once again too little way too late 🤦🏽‍♀️

Ironic that Mitch McConnell, the Republican most responsible for getting us into this mess, is the only Republican voting against this mess. Too late, Mitch — you spent decades hacking away at every possible constraint on GOP power, and now you've lost control of the monster you created.

And we are the villagers trying to figure out how to defeat his monster. FIRE. ITS FIRE, EVERYONE! #TrumpIsNotPresident #ArrestElon

Republicans really do want to end our beloved America - party over Oath

They will kill us all

DEATH is there goal.

Laugh or cry?!

Where his no vote would have meant everything was at Trumps impeachment, then we wouldn't be in this mess as Trump wouldn't have been allowed to run again, thanks for nothing Mitch.

Too little, too late, Mitch. Where was your spine when you refused to stop him in his first Administration?

So when RFK Jr cuts Medicaid and Medicare, there will be a lot less money going into clinic and hospital coffers to fund new technology and these tech billionaires will have shit themselves in their own “values” 🔥🤬

FCK Republican lawmakers except Mitch this time!

Well we're dead ...

I'm listening to a word that comes out that useless excuse of a human being. I make my own decisions what I need.

"Not" listening.

Murderers
