and think about acting like decent, sober, honest Americans for a change.

Lives in Fucking reality.

How can it be trusted?

Taking a vaccine from a government department that is run by an anti vaxer seems risky. I want the vaccine to be available, clean and reliable. Pretty simple.

What will the anti vaxer in charge offer to people who want the vaccine. How tainted is the process with the thinning of the department? How would we know.

Before he causes more damage.

The Democratic Minority in the House will get right on that. I'm sure there's 60 votes in the Republican-controlled Senate to convict.

about abortion being accepted policy…….

LIARS - just like their leader.

Kennedy claimed conflict of interest as some old members were past employees of Pfizer & Moderna

“U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced eight new members to the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) on June 11, 2025, after dismissing all 17 previous members. The new appointees, described by Kennedy as committed to evidence-based medicine, are:

- **Joseph R. Hibbeln, MD**: A psychiatrist and neuroscientist, formerly acting chief of the NIH’s section on nutritional neurosciences.

- **Martin Kulldorff, PhD**: A biostatistician and epidemiologist, former Harvard professor, co-author of the Great Barrington Declaration, which opposed COVID-19 lockdowns and vaccine mandates for children.

- **Retsef Levi, PhD**: MIT professor of operations management, expert in healthcare analytics and risk management, has published studies on mRNA vaccine safety and cardiovascular events.

- **Robert W. Malone, MD**: A physician-scientist and biochemist, known for anti-vaccine views and skepticism about mRNA vaccine technology, aligned with Kennedy’s Make America Healthy Again movement.

- **Cody Meissner, MD**: Professor of pediatrics at Dartmouth’s Geisel School of Medicine, previously served on ACIP (2008–2012) and the FDA’s vaccine advisory committee, co-wrote an editorial criticizing mask mandates for children.

- **James Pagano, MD**: A board-certified emergency medicine physician, described as a strong advocate for evidence-based medicine, with experience on hospital committees and medical executive boards.

- **Vicky Pebsworth, OP, PhD, RN**: A nurse, former consumer representative on the FDA’s vaccine advisory committee, now associated with the National Vaccine Information Center, a group advocating for vaccine exemptions.

- **Michael A. Ross, MD**: Professor of obstetrics and gynecology at George Washington University and Virginia Commonwealth University, an operating partner at Havencrest, a private equity firm, with experience on biotech and healthcare boards.

These appointments have sparked controversy, with critics like the American Medical Association and public health experts expressing concern over the inclusion of vaccine skeptics and the lack of transparency in the selection process. The new panel is set to meet June 25–27, 2025, to discuss vaccine recommendations, but with only eight members, it lacks the quorum required for voting unless additional members or temporary voting authorizations are added.[](https://www.cnn.com/2025/06/11/health/kennedy-new-members-vaccine-advisory-panel)[](https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cr4zyp26xn2o)[](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jun/13/eight-new-cdc-vaccine-advisers-robert-f-kennedy)

punitive consequences in place for a nominee who flatly lies in their Senate confirmation hearing!
Nominees for the Supreme Court who say that they accept Roe vs Wade as settled law to get confirmed, then rush to overturn it!

Much of it is based on the assumption that Politicians will act with honor.

too fucking large, to the point that it's now virtually impossible to add to or otherwise modify in any way.
