...Democrats lost it on Thursday after Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. (RFK) announced that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has begun studying certain psychiatric medications following the latest trans-related mass shooting.
Appearing on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends,” RFK was asked by host Brian Kilmeade if he intends to study whether the hormonal drugs used in so-called gender transitions are contributing to said shootings....

“You know, many of them on there have black box warnings that warn of suicidal ideation and homicidal ideation. We can’t exclude those as a culprit, and those are the kind of studies that we’re doing,” he added.
There was no time in the past when people would walk into a church or a classroom and start shooting people. It’s not really happening in other countries, it’s happening here. And we need to look at all of the potential culprits that might be contributing to that,” RFK concluded.
SSRI is short for selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. They’re used to treat anxiety and depression, both of which are disproportionately experienced by people in the so-called transgender community.
RFK’s surprise announcement prompted outrage from Democrats, starting with Minnesota Sen. Tina Smith, who posted a tweet accusing the HHS secretary of “peddling bullsh*t”:
Tina Smith
@SenTinaSmith ·
I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do.
Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.

Like other rabid Democrats, she’s stubbornly convinced that the only thing that would stop school shootings are tougher gun laws.
“There are 400 million guns in this country,” she added in another tweet. “More guns than people. In America, we are ten times more likely to be shot in a school or playground than any other developed nation.”

So much for the supposed commitment of liberals to “the science.”

This is not a gun issue.
This is not a mental health issue.
This is about systemic child abuse and indoctrination.
It starts with social emotional learning and it ends with double mastectomies for 12 year olds,
- pride flags
- pride cloths
- puberty blockers
- genital mutilation
- saying mental health but really meaning gender indoctrination in schools
- social and emotional learning
- drag queen story hour
- kids around over-sexualized adults
This breeds sick children.
And it’s a feature not a bug.

Yup... the DRM party has made it their hill to die on.
The medicated community and their enablers are an angry bunch lacking scrutiny. Propaganda oriented health care concerns are being threatened for sure.
Ah yes the Kennedys. Always making enemies and not caring who’s ox is gored. Got a couple of them killed. So why didn’t Teddy break the mold? One can say his uncharacteristic longevity mighta had to do with sticking with the program.
JFK Jr. was another to go against the grain and he was bumped off. He was going to come out of the closet as a republican and go into politics running for the senate seat Hillary got. Cost him his life.
“Trust the science, Tina.”
So much for the supposed commitment of liberals to “the science.”

Med school reinforced my understanding that we don’t don’t know everything. Worse, some things we think we know aren’t so. We need to periodically reexamine what we think we know.
Actions of big government and its allies have made that need all the more clear. RFK Jr is doing the needed re-evaluations. If he is as able—and honest—as I hope, he’ll show us some of what we thought was so was wrong. He’ll also show himself some of what he thought was so was wrong. And some things which neither understood will remain unknown. We’ll really know more. We won’t become omniscient. It’s statistically possible autism will end up amongst the “still not understood” category.
I’m fourth generation small medicine, back to when “progressive” equalled TR. I remember my grandfather warning against Medicare and Medicaid. Back when the AMA was still on his side. When I entered med school we had numerous small drug companies making multiple sources for most medicines, including the then available vaccines. “Medicine” and “Pharma” didn’t always deserve the modifier “Big.”

Just as it took multiple doses of bad medicine to warp the Framers’ vision of small government. The most recent big bad dose was Obamacare. Obama’s final negotiation before voting through his mono-partisan monstrosity was a big pow-wow with then-Big Pharma. Just what was exchanged there I don’t know, but I doubt much was good. Much needs to be undone, but there also is much worth keeping. “Science” properly defined and used is a good thing.
Don’t like the left’s tendency to steal and warp language make you want to kill real science along with their fake.

Notice how all those words were written to bury his real message...
“He’ll also show
,..himself...
( RFKJr. the one the pharma vax shills are gunning for )..
some of what he thought.... was so was wrong...”
...
Yup, just a heavily veiled attack on RFKJr.
Calling out this Trans Business™ for what it truly is ... a lifelong money machine (meds/surgeries/psych evals, etc) ... is a threat to yet another one of their grift operations.
Go Bobby Go!
Thanks for posting. HOORAY RFK Jr.! Suicide side effects? Reactions among individuals may vary. Indemnification.
Thanks. BUMP!
Oh, that’s just GREAT! /s
He’ll go head-to-head with the progressive establishment and trans community...
...BUT WON’T GO HEAD-TO-HEAD WITH THE PLANDEMIC BUREAUCRACY!!!
[smh angrily]
Sidebar: He could only be restrained from above. Yeah.
***Bingo***

What RFKJr.

insinuating bobby ...
..has been wrong before.... and...
.. IS WRONG NOW.
yup , a HEAVILY veiled ATTACK on Bobby’s competence.
regardless of how sincere and reasoned it was presented as.
Bravo. You are 100% right. It is time to stop the BS and tell the truth.
quote “I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do.”
guns dont kill anyone, mentally ill deviants hyped up on hormone drugs kill plenty though.
I am guessing liberals would have tried to outlaw rocks as the reason and cause of Cain killing Able
Time to expose and CLOSE DOWN the transexual industrial complex.
I’M NOT SAYING I DON’T BELIEVE YOU, I just haven’t heard this before.
With Hillary, all things are possible./s
