Summary

Mike Pence opposed Trump’s nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of HHS, citing Kennedy’s support for abortion access as a sharp departure from the Trump-Pence administration’s pro-life stance.

Pence urged Senate Republicans to reject Kennedy’s nomination, claiming Kennedy supports “abortion on demand” and restoring Roe v. Wade.

Both pro-life and abortion rights groups criticized Kennedy’s appointment, with pro-life leaders expressing concerns about his past positions and abortion rights advocates calling him unfit.

    Mike Pence: I’m so wrong that even when I accidentally suggest the right thing, it’s because I’m so wrong.

    I’m hoping the infighting really slows down the fascism just a lil bit. I’m really hoping we can get trump and musk to fight because they’re both egotistical assholes. Please somebody ask them who’s smarter during a public appearance.

      Excellent idea. Here’s my idea to improve it: someone should throw a golden apple with the carved words “τη εξυπνότερους” (“The smartest”, alluding to the “Ti Kallisti” inscription from the Apple of Discord), to make Eris proud.

    Who fucking cares what Mike Pence thinks? Republicans hate his guts since Trump turned on him and everyone else has always hated him, and he doesn’t have any political power, so his opinion has like negative news value these days. I guess mainstream media companies just can’t resist his dynamic intellect and incredible charisma /s (that “/s” doesn’t really feel sufficient, he makes Jeff Sessions look smart and Jared Kushner seem human)
