The U.S. Senate voted largely along party lines to confirm Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to run the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), installing an anti-vaccine activist and conspiracy theorist to head a $1.8 trillion agency that oversees the nation’s largest health programs. Kennedy will also be able to shape federal abortion policy and has expressed openness to national restrictions.

    The recent measles outbreak in Texas was actually a celebration in his honor

      Unfortunately I’m vaccinated.😕 I have to celebrate my own way, by driving around the block until I hit tonight’s dinner. Then it’s just a quick stop at the drug store for the marinade ingredients, ivermectin and broken glass thermometers.😋

        Sorry to be the one to tell you this but you’re going to have to drop tonight’s dinner in a local park.

        Instead you should celebrate with the true health secretary meal, McDonald’s

        Just remember. It’s no longer poison to RFK

          Oh for sure. I use his scientific food safety test. I leave a little outside and see if a crow eats it. They’re very smart birds. If they’ll eat it, it must be safe.

            I can’t argue with that logic. Potentially legally going forward
