Summary

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Donald Trump’s pick for Health and Human Services secretary, has a history of extreme rhetoric and conspiracy theories about vaccines.

In previously unreported comments at autism conferences, Kennedy likened vaccination programs to Catholic Church abuse scandals and Nazi death camps and argued for jailing vaccine scientists.

He has falsely claimed vaccines cause autism and accused public health agencies like the CDC of corruption and hiding vaccine dangers.

Critics fear his leadership could dismantle vaccine safety efforts, decrease public trust, and disrupt public health policy.

    Because we’ve been told for eons that to be rich you have to be smart.

    Most of the time we don’t know all these fucking dumb rich people inherited their money instead of earning it themselves so we assume they’re smart too.

    Hey we’d all be rich too if mommy and daddy gave us seed money and the expertise of their business advisors for free.

    Hell, I’m still confused why anyone gives a shit about the Kennedys. They are so stupid they bought into lobotomy despite everything saying how dumb it was to do.

    Rich people are dumber than middle class and poor people.
