“.. Kennedy was acting bizarre, saying he can tell as he walks past children if they are dealing with “mitochondrial challenges” .. Can he mysteriously divine illnesses just by looking? “Our health secretary is a certified quack.” @nytopinion.nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/08/30/o...
Quack minimizes his lethal impact. Malignant narcissist and pathological liar is more accurate.
Loud Dowd Cowed Crowd.
10+ years with a needle in his arm makes him an authority.
Yes, he absolutely is! It's a tie between him and trump whose worse, although unfortunately, RFK has the ability to do the most direct and dangerous damage. RFK scares the dickens out of me but then again so does trump.
RFK Jr. is a public health threat. youtu.be/5BNj-BneTNI
I hear the vaccine against tyranny has a high lead content. Does that cause autism? Maybe we need a study with no placebos.
He'll be giving kids "Eye of Newt" pills for Halloween
For instance has he said that Trump cancelled his golf this weekend because of a bout of the "Epstein yips"?
He does not know where mitochondria is in the human body That word coming up very bizarre in already totally bizarre rantings
My childhood - fear of ending up in an iron lung.
RFK Jr. absolutely cannot diagnose children who are simply walking by. But his brain worm can.
Today is Whack a Quack Day
He's psychotic
He needs to OVERDOSE.
Carl, your posts and reposts are awesome. My first read every day. Thanks, I appreciate your work and time spent
insideclimatenews.org/news/2005202...
We all knew this…
I think his humors are off. Has he been bled lately? What about vapors or a miasma?
I know of a meth addict who believes they are magical even more so after they took mushrooms. They did end up in the emergency room deemed to have had a psychotic break. The same goes for RFK Jr 👇
Is RFK Jr. a Psychadelic Relic? Checked out? 60s/70s brain damaged? music.youtube.com/watch?v=0983...
💯🔥
Kennedy was acting bizarre…..a description of his entire life. Looks like a boiled catcher’s mitt and sounds like he’s gargled hot tar his entire life.
"Here a quack, there a quack,everywhere, a quack, quack..."
Interesting choice to illustrate the piece with McConnell’s boyhood photo
I seriously want him to stop looking at children at all, creep!
Looking at Trump's rotting from the inside out body must fascinate him, then. Maybe RFK, Jr is trying his crazy quack medicine on trump & that's the reason Trump's in hiding or being hidden. Maybe it's "Weekend w trump" time at the WH.
What EXACTLY is a mitochondrial change Mr. Secretary? He hasn’t got a clue. 🙄
💯. A complete nut job.
He’s clearly not dealing with reality.
Early stages before full 🧟♂️
Along these lines, is the cancelation of mail services from Canada to the US going to hurt people being prescriptions from Canada?
The MSM could help by reviewing polio survivors and their disabilities.
Maybe the NYT should have focused more on him and the rest of the people supporting Trump (as well as Trump). It was all in plain sight.
Journalism. I miss it.
Me too!
I think it’s time for dear old RFK Jr to go bye bye

"On Wednesday, Kennedy was acting bizarre" Um Maureen he's regularly molested animal carcasses for the last 30 years
Ambassador Caroline Kennedy called RFKJr a "predator" in her letter to the US Senate and it made no difference. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
Well we already knew they're affection for predators
I believe he should look in the mirror for once in his life or vice versa, he is looking too much in a mirror and now he that’s all he sees on everyone else! Sic rabid dog!
Maureen is directly responsible for sanewashing Trump and thus RFK Jr. She can stuff her multimillions from peddling right-wing hate for decades where the sun doesn't shine.
And should be committed!
Yes..and very dangerous!
218 as of Today. The fascists are raging forward. Fascists at all gov't levels. I am being ASKED why I am protesting by TEACHERS!!! They had the summer off, why have they missed what is happening? Please do SOMETHING to save Democracy! youtu.be/O6EzqLPbMt8?...
"Kennedy was acting bizarre" 🤣😳
It’s his worm.
trump says the same thing about naked pagent girls, he can tell by looking that they are Health-y.
Sort of the opposite of a faith healer... a faith sicker.
“Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the secretary of health and human services, is endangering the health of the American people now and into the future. He must resign.” www.nytimes.com/2025/08/30/o...
Our children walk past him in an airport & can see there’s something wrong with that man. They can just tell.
He had his own kids vaccinated.
Color me shocked! Just like they are all the experts on public schools yet their kids are in the finest private schools.
He wants everyone else's kids to be sick and die, so HIS kids can have a larger share of the scare resources on the earth.
Take a heroin addict, wrap him up in a famous name and stick him in charge of health
he should carry and dispense his patented "Dr. Quack no-Vax Elixir" with 27 mystery ingredients
Trump will rename it the trump lung with gold trim.
Maybe he's like a cancer-sniffing dog, but he can only diagnose made-up diseases.
No.... he's just "certifiable".....this lunatic needs a bin....
He’s a fucking nut just incase you didn’t know!
He's a junkie with a dead worm in his brain ffs.
Kennedy is a walking illness that needs to be cured, laboratory experiments may be required. Anyone...
“Mitochondrial challenges.”. So, radiation sickness? A fey skill, of admittedly limited utility.
Wonder if he demanded to know what was in the heroin he shot up? 🤔
Someone asked why doesn’t he get the Kennedy Curse. I think he is the ultimate Kennedy Curse. The Kenney name will replace Lysenko in the history books.
Daffy…..
RFK, RFK, how many folks did you kill today?
Let's ask the x heroin addict guy who sounds like a dying refrigerator compressor if vaccines are safe.
Stop denigrating quacks…
And he’s trying to kill as many of us as possible. For this reason alone he should be pushed out of his govt role and into prison. It’s called genocide.
[future Variety]: "BOBBY BOY'S BIZARRE BEAR BIOPIC BEGETS BOFFO B.O."
Kennedy is actually worse than a quack in my mind. To me me, a quack is a doctor who doesn't follow science, promotes wacky theories. But they are doctors. Like Dr Oz and Dr Phil are quacks. Kennedy has no medical degrees or training. He hasn't worked in healthcare. He is a charlatan. He's worse.
📌
I challenge Mr Mitochondria to name just 1 molecular reaction in the Krebs Cycle I'll wait....
bsky.app/profile/late...
Apparently mitochondria are little bits inside your cells that provide energy and do something or other with RNA, and you inherit them from your mother. I asked. (Husband has learned to supply mitochondrial size answers to my science questions) Maybe Kennedy needs a smart spouse.
I can tell just by looking at Kennedy that something is wrong with him. He looks abnormal - thick orange skin. Why?
Overuse of tanning beds, and overuse of testosterone.
@nytpitchbot.bsky.social How'd you miss this beauty from Dowd?
He has a pathology to live up to the hero myth of his dead father because he feels very inadequate. It’s quite Shakespearean- his appointment to the HHS (without him having any qualifications) fulfills his need to live up to his dad’s legacy. He found admiration among anti-vaxx nuts, at our expense.
People can walk past him and see mental illness.
That should be the headline not an op ed!
As a polio survivor, let me simply state, vaccines are a good thing.
As a family member of someone who was left disabled by polio, vaccines are indeed a good thing and a blessing.
A preview of coming events for the US—The 2019 measles outbreak in Samoa, following a drop in vax rates, which was encouraged by RFK, Jr. More than one in 150 babies age 6 to 11 months died from the measles during the outbreak. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news... www.doherty.edu.au/news-events/...
Maybe he is actually a beagle. No, I love beagles.
"He's a nut!"
IMHO vaccines have kept the horrible diseases away for so long the morons have no memory, or education, about just how horrible it is. They assume RFK Jr. is exposing some dark agenda because they don't trust smart people, science or facts they're incapable of understanding.
#ROTTING-RFK-Jr is a #menace spreading deadly lies and #feeding-on-fear Every word #he-speaks makes the world more dangerous.
No better example than this administration of how hoarded, inherited wealth leads to inept, narcissistic and egotistical, powerful wealthy people who are dangerous to our country when allowed to hold power.
Exactly! The average Joe seems to believe that if you have lots of money, you must be smart. This is dangerous, especially when those who inherit lots of money start believing it.
This also robs society of great minds because there is little to no chance that brilliant people born into poverty can climb out without a ladder.
Yeah. I've often wondered how many brilliant minds have lived and died hidden away in fields, alleys, and sweatshops. Most of them probably didn't even realize that they were gifted, having had no opportunity to demonstrate it to even themselves. What a loss to the world.
It stands to reason that the wealthy have purchased their offsprings diplomas and given them positions of power within an already established familial empire without them ever having to prove that they are intelligent and capable enough to have earned those positions like a poor person would do.
Interesting to see Murdoch keeps taking shots at Rump. Reminding him of who's REALLY in charge.
He’s a complete jackass and has no idea what mitochondria is or what it’s function is within the cell. The only cell I’d like to see him in is a jail cell.
Literally
A whackadoddle
Make Way For F*cklings
This administration is obsessed with children
Donald Trump, always bringing America the very best people.
NYT gives us a warning of what’s coming back
Is this a "well, if you have lost Maureen Dowd" moment?
MoDo lost herself, even before the edible.
I know
Insane
I resent that, calling RFK Jr a quack. A quack is a disreputable doctor, so to be called a quack a person would have to have some medical credentials and RFK Jr has none.
But, aren't most Republicans in office today?
I agree with a post I saw on bsky that framing RFK as crazy, daft, or simply bad at his job takes away his personal accountability for the damage he’s inflicting. Treat him as you would Alex Jones. He’s deliberately misleading and harming people to make money. It’s not bizarre. It’s calculated.
Fair
I think the accountability of having RFK, Jr leading HHS should be laid at the feet Trump, and the Senators who voted to confirm him. This also goes for all the other cabinet officials.
And sounds like he just swallowed a gravel cocktail.
It’s the iv heroin use that helps him
Dowd was one of the many who piled on against Hillary in 2016. I stopped reading her.
10 points for the title of the essay.

I have always loved a well turned phrase and “VAX QUACK” fits the bill!!!
Has he looked in a mirror?
So Kennedy is clairvoyant now?? 👎🏻
It’s amazing that he can look at someone and is able to see them at the cellular level. He is a disgrace to his family and to humanity
Did RFKjr become a medical savant after the worm ate his brain?
We don't need another generation in the Iron Lung!!
Fake Republicans in Congress voted for enemy of country 2000 www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview...
He’s describing hallucinations and delusional thoughts about innocent children in public. He believes so firmly in his hallucinations and delusions that he is taking action that will kill innocent people. He’s a danger to himself and others.
There is a recommended response to such individuals. Rabid animals are... pacified.
The only reason he admitted to having a brain worm was to prove that, despite all evidence, he had a brain at all.
He’s a effing lunatic.
bsky.app/profile/bird...
Whack-o
Exactly.
RFKJr belongs nowhere near HHS Tell him to find another job. @senatorhick.govpeeps.us @bennet.senate.gov @degette.house.gov @neguse.house.gov #jasoncrow @pettersen.house.gov
Like we didn't know this a long time ago
What? Kennedy can also tell if your marriage is failing by the way your ATP levels vibe.
In his defense, kids in iron lungs don’t mug little old ladies.
My uncle had polio when he was young. It affected the right side of his body. The leg, lung and arms. He got better. But polio never leaves. He was in his 60s, it again affected his lung partially collapsed. His right leg and arm were smaller. Unfortunately he had to move to a lower altitude.
💯❗️
That guy is deeply unwell.
SEND YOUR REP A MESSAGE TO IMPEACH AND REMOVE THE QUACK! www.standupforscience.net/quack-o-grams
RFKj doesn’t have the credentials to be considered a quack.
"Quack" is too nice of a word for RFK Jr. He's a psychopath who believe mass disease culls the herd and people who die from illness deserve to because they are weak. He is a genocidal threat to public health.
Reasonably sure he has no idea what mitochondria are
Didn't they burn witches at the stake for much less?
RFK Jr: We need to stop trusting the experts... Trusting the experts is not a feature of science or democracy, it's a feature of religion and totalitarianism.
RFK is a fucking liar just like his boss. He's not divine. He can't tell shit. Where is the Kennedy curse when it's actually needed?
RFK Jr is showing that he too is mentally weak and should be put out to pasture.
Is that a Dire Straits song? He wrote me a prescription, he said, "You are depressed But I'm glad you came to see me to get this off your chest Come back and see me later, next patient, please Send in another victim of mitochondrial disease"
I'm puzzled that there has not been more media focus on RFK, Jr.'s financial motivations for his anti-vax position: RFK Jr.’s view of autism is wrong — but profitable wapo.st/4g6Wm3e Excerpt: "Kids may die, but Robert Kennedy will continue to cash in." www.warren.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...
He’s also heavily funded by the big funeral home industry…
I bet he can find sources of water without a divining stick too😆
He is worse than a quack, he is a psychopath
On a related note, I'm guessing the President just took a few days off to recharge his mitochondria.
Don’t you ever put Dowd in my timeline.
Don’t think he’s acting.
He takes x-rays with his naked eyes.
Did Dowd accidentally write something reasonable?!
The worms are still in his brain!!
Every senator who voted to confirm this quack needs to answer for that vote in their next election. This practice of rubber stamping any rube the president wants needs to stop.
my husband's niece spent her entire life in one of those machines, age 4-22.....we CANNOT go back
I mean…I can tell a heroin addict by certain facial characteristics so maybe? 🙄🫤🤡💩
So now he is a dog
According to CDC leadership, he has never met or had so much as a discussion with the scientists at CDC...not one...zed...zero...zilch. He and his conspiracy flock very simply make up bullshit and purvey it as fact
Make phrenology great again!
Drug Test.
If he was not shat out of a Kennedy he would have died from heroin 20 years ago...
He always reminds me of this song. www.youtube.com/watch?v=APrp...
And this one too :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TmH...
😂😂😂
😂🎼🎶
FACT! He's a KINO (Kennedy In Name Only).
Yes. Because he was born to rich influential family he is alive and running stuff into ground instead of running mouth on street corner on drugs...👹
Finally, the headline Maureen Dowd was born to write.
...and a new Tongue Twister at that - 😉say 5 times fast: vax quack lacks facts
#WormBrain has total control over our health because of Republicans. #RepublicansAreTheProblem
Will iron lungs see a return?
Yes, but they'll place restrictions on who's qualified to get one.
And insurance won’t cover them.
"Anti vax quack"
RFKJr is leading the American medical field toward the practice of brujeria, voodoo & other forms of witchery. As an Anglo, his "bizarre" behavior can't even be characterized as white magic.
In my opinion he needs to be drug tested…..seriously
For steroids, especially.
Agreed, 70 year old men need help to look like that
Maybe that “overload” look on their faces he is referring to while he is staring at kids who don’t know him is just normal kids having normal reactions to a weird puce-faced old stranger leering at them.
And he’s no Jack
The man swims in shit. Why is this even a conversation? www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...
What’s he on? JFC what a crash of a govt! Unbelievable this was a respected country!
What are the long-term effects of heroin use on the brain? Just because he’s alive doesn’t mean he survived.
Not a surprise for a mass murder to say stupid sh** like this. What's next euthanizing?
