RFK Jr.’s new bully pulpit sends public health shock waves
thehill.com ^ | 11/10/24 | Nathaniel Weixel

Posted on 11/11/2024 2:05:45 PM PST by ransomnote

President-elect Trump’s promise to let Robert F. Kennedy Jr. “go wild” on health is demoralizing public health experts, who worry he could meddle with key government agencies, amplify vaccine hesitancy and direct agency funding to favor his preferred views.

Those include removing fluoride from public water, promoting a wide variety of unorthodox and unproven treatments and pushing a deep skepticism of pharmaceutical companies and the agencies overseeing them.

But with Trump’s victory, Kennedy could soon be in charge of those same agencies. 

“FDA’s war on public health is about to end,” Kennedy wrote on social media shortly before the election, referring to the Food and Drug Administration.

“This includes its aggressive suppression of psychedelics, peptides, stem cells, raw milk, hyperbaric therapies, chelating compounds, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, vitamins, clean foods, sunshine, exercise, nutraceuticals and anything else that advances human health and can’t be patented by Pharma. If you work for the FDA and are part of this corrupt system, I have two messages for you: 1. Preserve your records, and 2. Pack your bags.”

Is he slated to take over the FDA or is he going into some “czar” role?

RFK Jr is a lunatic, which being a Kennedy, is not a surprise.

The Kennedy family has been a bane on the American body politic.

Having said that — I say thanks to RFK Jr for supporting Trump and doing the right thing.

Perhaps he can be helpful going forward,

He deserves a lot of appreciation for supporting Trump.

Has RFK, Jr walked back any of this?
If he hasn’t why should I trust him. Sucking up to Trump is just a way for him to jump start his fallen political career. We’re being fools to trust him.

His most important task, directed by President Trump personally, is to assemble a large national stockpile of chains for black people. (/libs)

This annoying list is posted by the author at every opportunity. It’s annoying and doesn’t make it more relevant. It’s irrelevant.

Well that would demoralize anyone. Someone other than them getting the 8 billion dollars a year Fauci used to distribute to his cronies.

Good job.

He is a lunatic.

He helped, so I give him that which I don’t mean lightly.
