BREAKING: The Quack is Now in Charge of Our Health [1]
['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']
Date: 2025-02-13
The vaccine-hating, conspiracy loving quack has now been placed in charge of the nation’s health. The Senate just confirmed RJK Jr by 52-48. All Democrats and McConnell voted no.
RFK Jr. confirmed, elevating anti-vaccine activist to nation’s top health post
As one of Trump’s most controversial nominees, Kennedy was confirmed in a 52 to 48 vote largely along party lines, with Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) as the lone exception. McConnell’s childhood bout with polio has informed his ardent support for vaccines amid increasing skepticism of the shots within his own party.
McConnell was also the only Republican to vote against Gabbard, yesterday. His votes remind me of old people who, as they approach the end of their life, try to “make good” with God so that he won’t pay attention to all the sins they committed up to then. Doesn’t work.
