    From Maxwell Frost on BlueSky:

    The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is one of our most efficient agencies. Costs less than $1B a year & has fought to return over $20B directly to Americans.

    But I guess it makes sense that a billionaire wants to eliminate one of the agencies that fights for working people. 🤷🏾‍♂️

    Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has a dark view of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In 2019, he called the federal agency’s vaccine division a fascist enterprise and accused it of knowingly hurting children.

    He also compared what he saw as a widespread conspiracy to hide harms from the child vaccination program to the cover-up of child sexual abuse in the Catholic Church.

    “The word ‘fascism’ in Italian means a bundle of sticks, and what it means is the bundle is more important than the sticks,” Kennedy said in previously unreported remarks in 2019 to a private audience at AutismOne, a conference for parents of autistic children.

    “The institution, CDC and the vaccine program, is more important than the children that it’s supposed to protect.

    “It’s the same reason we had a pedophile scandal in the Catholic Church,” he continued. “Because people were able to convince themselves that the institution, the church, was more important than these little boys and girls who were being raped. And everybody kept their mouth shut. The press, the prosecutors, the priests, the bishops, the monsignors, the Vatican, and even the parents of the kids who just didn’t want to believe it was happening, or believed so much in the church they were unwilling to criticize it. And you know, that is the perfect metaphor for what’s happening to us. There have to be parents who stand up and say, ‘We don’t give a s---.’”

    Kennedy made these remarks and others — most previously unreported — over years of appearances at AutismOne.

    The comments, dating back to 2013, include claims that the CDC is a “cesspool of corruption,” filled with profiteers, harming children in a way he also likened to “Nazi death camps.”…….

     
    What’s the difference between Gaetz and Trump that makes Gaetz unacceptable?
    I swear, you all would understand the criminal better, his goings ons seemingly more predictable if you would understand that the criminal is playing Rodney Dangerfield. It's his thing.

    Gaetz is suspected of illicit drug use and sex with minors. Trump isn’t a drug addict, but he has been accused of sex with minors.


    Trump has also been accused of 26 sexual assaults and has been convicted of sexual assault. Trump has also committed or been suspected of committing many other crimes. So I ask again, if Trump is acceptable, why isn’t Gaetz? It seems that anyone that has committed less crimes than Trump should be acceptable to those that voted for Trump.

    I’ve heard an argument that Pam Bondi May not be acceptable since she is an election denier. So is Trump. I’ve heard RFK isn’t acceptable due to being a conspiracy theorist. So is Trump. It seems people are denouncing some of his nominees for things they’ve said or done, or lack of qualifications. Nearly all of those things apply to Trump, yet people voted for that. I think it is hard for anyone to be less acceptable than Trump, so just about any nominee should be acceptable.

    hell, trump bribed her not to go after him on his school scam. but that won't stop her from getting approved.
    Taking a bribe is probably a plus, because he knows how to play her. Trump has probably taken many bribes himself. He probably thinks that’s normal. In his world, if you don’t take bribes, you’re a fool.

    No probably about it. Remember how he was trying to get rid of TikTok? Now he is not because their biggest US investor donated to trump. Coke, Budweiser, and others have bribed him. He is easily bought and does not hide it.
     
    A former Trump administration Food and Drug Administration commissioner is worried that the incoming administration’s pick of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead a key health agency will prove dangerous.

    “I think if RFK follows through on his intentions, and I believe he will, and I believe he can, it will cost lives in this country,” Scott Gottlieb said during a Friday appearance on CNBC’s Squawk Box.

    “You’re going to see measles, mumps and rubella vaccination rates go down, and like I said, if we lose another 5 percent [of vaccinations], which could happen in the next year or two, we will see large measles outbreaks,” he added.

    Gottlieb, who serves on the board of Pfizer, maker of one of the Covid vaccines, is one of a number of health experts who have raised the alarm about the Trump administration’s pick of Kennedy to lead the department of Health and Human Services.……

    The anti-vaccine loons including RFK, Jr. will simply say that Pfizer is trying maintain selling dangerous vaccines. The country is walking along the edge of a deep gorge while blindfolded.

    I don't know why you quoted me, your response wasn't about my post.

    I've not been using the word """Trump""", he's a convicted criminal. So he's The Criminal. If you want to impress me you will start calling him what he is, """The Criminal""".
