Trump better start thinking about how to make recess appointments work, because RFK Jr. and Tulsi will never get confirmed by the Senate.

At least, that’s what the editors at the WSJ want.

The Wall Street Journal delivers solid finance coverage most days, but its roots still show. It caters to a diehard crowd of atavistic Nixon-era neocon loyalists. That’s who they appeal to with their article, “Why RFK Jr. Is Dangerous to Public Health.”

So RFK jr is supposed to be bad because he wants more transparency in what kids eat and what kids are forced to be vaccinated with?

Questioning (((settled science))) is a threat to our (((democracy)))?

  • Right now: 74% of Americans are overweight or obese
  • In Japan childhood obesity is 3% compared to 20% here
  • Childhood diabetes was non-existent in 1970, but today one in five adolescents and one in four young adults are living with prediabetes.
  • One in five women is on anti-depressant medication. This is higher than the rate for women in their 40s and 50s, and even higher for those in their 10s and 20s.
