If RFK Sr. were still alive to see what his son's become, he'd shoot himself.

I'm reminded of a quote in, I think, a disc world. It's something like "[name] could make a man wish he'd never been born, or make a slightly smarter man wish that [name] had never been born".
Is that a reference to Lord Vorbis from Small Gods?
Maybe, I don't remember and couldn't find the exact quote
Every case of it going forward he should be charged with a murder. Any families that lose people because of these ass hats shenanigans need to be ready to sue them directly and personally. Preferably criminally rather than civilly.
I don't expect that to go very far in the courts; they don't generally assign that kind of personal liability to government officials for policy decisions.
Yeah, all that effort to hold Trump legally accountable worked well, should be a piece of cake with his cronies /s
This man is absolutely batshit. Why does he want polio back?
He had part of his brain eaten by a parasite. He's literally not all there.
He's got as much brain left as his Uncle had on his last day as president.
I think he was batshit before the worm.
For nostalgia of the time when JFK and RFK are still alive
The USA's self-sabotage is starting to make Brexit look mild. But the USA's disease outbreaks will kill people worldwide.
Absolutely asinine
100% Expected.
So, are we supposed to watch as the US just sink under a sea of easily preventable diseases?
No. Instead we can:
- ask our Senators to reject the antivaxxers from positions where they have power over health
- ask for our states to step up to protect vaccine availability
- make sure people around us know how much good vaccines do
- make sure we and our families get vaccines before they're taken away from us
I would nullify if I was on the jury and Something happened to this dangerous idiot.
Jesus Christ. Would someone please tell him that falcons can get polio? That's probably the only way he'd believe it's dangerous.
The thought of polio coming back is just.... exhausting
He and Gwyneth paltrow should hook up
And I'm sure he is vacced himself.
