Yay?

Cheryl Hines says Robert F Kennedy Jr won’t run for president in 2028

The actor Cheryl Hines has said she does not believe her husband, Robert F Kennedy Jr, will run for the White House after Donald Trump’s presidency.
Hines was asked by Elizabeth Vargas, a NewsNation anchor, on Monday, “Is your husband going to run for president in 2028? And, if so, are you ready for that?”
“Gosh, he’s not going to run for president,” Hines replied, though she subsequently conceded that Kennedy at one point “didn’t think he was going to go into politics – and the next thing you know he’s telling me he wants to run”.

I mean, obviously he wants to run, cos he did run last year, lest we forget; he wanted to be the Democrat candidate, then went independent until Mushroom Cock managed to buy whatever’s left of his worm-eaten soul:

Kennedy endorsed Trump, a Republican, on 23 August 2024, defecting from the party to which his father – Robert F Kennedy, a former US senator – and uncle, John F Kennedy, belonged before their assassinations in the 1960s.
“We are aligned on many key issues,” Kennedy said at the time of Trump, whom he had once previously referred to as a “a terrible president”.

I’ve no doubt one of those key issues is the amount of money Kennedy was promised to drop out and be Trump’s HHS guy instead. Anyway, I see no reason why he couldn’t be president given how the incumbent keeps getting away with it, and he wouldn’t be any more unqualified for that position than he already is for his current one…

Of course

RFK Jr’s ‘Maha’ report found to contain citations to nonexistent studies

Robert F Kennedy Jr’s flagship health commission report contains citations to studies that do not exist, according to an investigation by the US publication Notus.
The report exposes glaring scientific failures from a health secretary who earlier this week threatened to ban government scientists from publishing in leading medical journals.
The 73-page “Make America healthy again” report – which was commissioned by the Trump administration to examine the causes of chronic illness, and which Kennedy promoted it as “gold-standard” science backed by more than 500 citations – includes references to seven studies that appear to be entirely invented, and others that the researchers say have been mischaracterized.
Two supposed studies on ADHD medication advertising simply do not exist in the journals where they are claimed to be published. Virginia Commonwealth University confirmed to Notus that researcher Robert L Findling, listed as an author of one paper, never wrote such an article, while another citation leads only to the Kennedy report itself when searched online. […]
The citation failures come as Kennedy, a noted skeptic of vaccines, criticized medical publishing this week, branding top journals the Lancet, New England Journal of Medicine and Jama as “corrupt” and alleging they were controlled by pharmaceutical companies. He outlined plans for creating government-run journals instead.

Somehow I’m not wholly surprised that these citations don’t exist, given that RFK Jr.’s qualifications for his job don’t exist either, but I’m still kind of shocked despite that. The report appears to be full of shit and other problems as it is, but the evident number of outright lies is concerning. I fear this gives us an insight into what those government-run journals might be like…

Therein lies a problem, Bobby…

RFK Jr. says people should not take medical advice from him, defends HHS cuts during congressional hearings

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., one of the nation’s most publicly recognized vaccine skeptics, took a softened approach on vaccines when he answered questions before a House committee Wednesday morning, saying, “I don’t think people should be taking medical advice from me.” […]
During the House hearing, Kennedy avoided sharing his own thoughts about vaccines — which have previously invited skepticism — instead deferring to the doctors running the National Institutes of Health and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Asked by Democratic Rep. Mark Pocan if he would today vaccinate his own children for measles and chickenpox, Kennedy said “probably” for measles, but that “what I would say is my opinions about vaccines are irrelevant.”
“I don’t want to seem like I’m being evasive, but I don’t think people should be taking advice, medical advice from me,” Kennedy said.
He said he has directed NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya to try to “lay out the pros and cons, the risks and benefits, accurately as we understand them, with replicable studies,” for people to “make that decision.”
His comments mark a departure from his strong opinions about vaccines before taking office as HHS secretary.
During his confirmation hearing in January, Kennedy said that he supports vaccines, although he refused to unequivocally say that vaccines don’t cause autism, despite numerous existing studies already showing there is no link. However, in March, the HHS confirmed that the CDC will study whether vaccines cause autism.
Shortly after Kennedy said people should not take his medical advice, some public health experts criticized the comments — with one saying that giving people guidance “is [Kennedy’s] job.”

EXACTLY. Robert. MATE. Do you even know what it means to be Health and Human Services Secretary in the US? If not, here’s Wikipedia to tell you:

The duties of the secretary revolve around human conditions and concerns in the United States. This includes advising the president on matters of health, welfare, and income security programs. The secretary strives to administer the Department of Health and Human Services to carry out approved programs and make the public aware of the objectives of the department.

In other words, PEOPLE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO TAKE YOUR ADVICE. THAT’S YOUR FUCKING JOB, YOU WORM-RIDDLED CUNT. You’re supposed to actually know these things, you’re getting paid a quarter of a million dollars each year to know things. That’s the problem. Because THEY CAN’T do that. They CAN’T trust you. You’re even less qualified to be in that job than *I* am. Can’t believe only two people died in that measles outbreak with this fool overseeing it. Won’t it be nice when that country is run again by people who actually know how to do their jobs? I have to hold out hope that it ever will be, of course…

Is this what he thinks about Edolf too?

This is RFK Jr’s latest statement about autistic people.

I am becoming increasingly fine with the idea of everyone in this fucking regime dying. I mean, we all die eventually, of course, but I want them to die sooner rather than later. And preferably violently. I don’t want any of these people to live long enough to die of natural causes.

And I HATE that about me. As I may have said before, I don’t like the idea of taking pleasure in someone’s death, I could refuse to mourn them but I couldn’t actively celebrate their departure. I could do that now. These people have made me a worse person, because I could be very happy about theirs. Their leaving this world would actually leave it a better place. And I REALLY hate that I’m like this now. But that’s where we are. Cos I certainly don’t see any other way out of the current nightmare.

This seems like a bold claim…

RFK Jr pledges to find the cause of autism by September

US Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr has pledged “a massive testing and research effort” to determine the cause of autism in five months.
Experts cautioned that finding the causes of autism spectrum disorder – a complex syndrome that has been studied for decades – will not be straightforward, and called the effort misguided and unrealistic.
Kennedy, who has promoted debunked theories suggesting autism is linked to vaccines, said during a cabinet meeting on Thursday that a US research effort will “involve hundreds of scientists from around the world.”
“By September, we will know what has caused the autism epidemic and we’ll be able to eliminate those exposures,” Kennedy said. […]
Kennedy did not give details on the research project or how much funding will be devoted to autism research.
Since being sworn in two months ago, the former environmental lawyer has slashed the budget for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), which includes the NIH, CDC and other government health organisations that oversee food and drug safety and conduct disease research.
“We’re going to look at vaccines, but we’re going to look at everything,” Kennedy later said during an interview with Fox News about the scope of the undertaking. “Everything is on the table, our food system, our water, our air, different ways of parenting, all the kind of changes that may have triggered this epidemic.”

I don’t think I’m being too unrealistic or controversial if I say right now the answer will, in fact, just turn out to be vaccines:

Kennedy has also alarmed some over his hiring of David Geier, who has been described by some as a conspiracy theorist, to research vaccines and autism, and on Thursday Democrats in the US House of Representatives wrote to HHS “to express our urgent concern” over the selection of “a biased and discredited individual”.
Geier is a leading vaccine sceptic who was fined by the state of Maryland for practicing medicine without a medical degree or licence and prescribing dangerous treatments to autistic children.

Vaccines. I’m calling it now. In fact, probably anyone with any sense looking at this story knows where it’s going to go, I don’t think I’m seeing anything that no one else is seeing here. I’ll be surprised if it turns out to be anything else, and even if it does, vaccines will still be the main culprit. Come back in September and we’ll see if I’m right.

Bit late for that

Kennedy Jr backtracks and says US measles outbreak is now a ‘top priority’ for health department

Two days after initially downplaying the outbreak as “not unusual,” the US health secretary, Robert F Kennedy Jr, on Friday said he recognizes the serious impact of the ongoing measles epidemic in Texas – in which a child died recently – and said the government is providing resources, including protective vaccines.
“Ending the measles outbreak is a top priority for me and my extraordinary team,” Kennedy – an avowed anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist who for years has sown doubts about the safety and efficacy of vaccines – said in a post on X. […]
A total of 164 measles cases were reported as of 27 February across Alaska, California, Georgia, Kentucky, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York City, Rhode Island and Texas, information from the CDC showed. About 95% of those infected were unvaccinated people, including children whose parents did not follow CDC recommendations to get them immunized with safe, effective vaccines providing protection against measles as well as other easily preventable diseases. Another 3% were from people who received only one of the two required shots for immunity, CDC data showed on Friday.

Dangerous fucking idiots, both Bobby Brainworm and all these stupid cunts that wouldn’t vaccinate their kids. And the ones that still won’t, even now. The child who died in the Texas epidemic was the first US death from measles since 2015, and that person had been the first since 2003. It wasn’t completely wiped out there, but it was massively reduced; Wiki tells that in the 1960s, pre-vaccine, it affected about 3000 out of every million people, but by about 2000 there was literally a one in a million chance of getting it. The vaccine fucking worked and people stopped dying. I’m glad that for once Kennedy’s overcome his usual antipathy to vaccines somehow, but it’s a bit late… especially when HE’s been one of the key figures for years in convincing people that vaccines are the work of Satan. Cunt.

“Well there’s a surprise,” said no one

Trump HHS Nominee RFK Jr Admitted to Funding the Movie “Plandemic”

Because OBVIOUSLY.

Much like I could barely discuss Trump’s hideous guitars, I haven’t felt any desire to talk about the catastrophe of a government the old cunt has been assembling, but anyway, for some reason people seem to have been surprised by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. getting nominated to the Secretary of Health and Human Services; after all, Trump SAID he would be giving Kennedy a health care job and that was the whole reason Bobby Brainworm shacked up with Mushroom Cock in the first place (per his Wiki, he’d actually first done this in January 2017 despite having drawn Nazi comparisons with Trump and his goons). This story, though, is an even less surprising revelation…

Plandemic was produced and released in the early days of the COVID-19 crisis, becoming a viral sensation among conspiracy theorists. The film’s central narrative revolves around claims that the pandemic was engineered by the pharmaceutical industry and other elites, with some of its assertions heavily criticized by public health experts and fact-checkers as misleading or outright false.
RFK Jr.’s Children’s Health Defense (CHD), which has long been at the forefront of anti-vaccine advocacy, supported Plandemic by sharing, promoting, and funding the film through its platform, a MeidasTouch review of CHD’s webpage including archive versions revealed, further solidifying its controversial stance against mainstream scientific views on vaccines and public health measures. Critics of have condemned both the film and it’s subsequent iterations, arguing that the spread of such unfounded claims undermines public trust in legitimate health responses to the pandemic, including the development and distribution of vaccines.

So by the time Plandemic came out, Kennedy had been a vaccine sceptic of at least 15 years standing, 2005 having been when he published what appears to have been his first piece on the subject; and, as an avowed Democrat, he was an equally avowed non-fan of TrumpCorp. Consequently, a documentary (using that word loosely, of course) pushing theories about The Elites™ creating Covid and Big Pharma is getting even bigger because of vaccines seems bound to have attracted Kennedy’s interest, and this news that he helped fund and promote it surprises me not in the slightest. What is a little bit surprising is that, having accused Mushroom Cock’s government of “planning” this thing, he’s now evidently happy to be part of Dampnut’s new government… but I get the feeling “integrity” is a word Bob ditched from his vocabulary a while ago so I probably shouldn’t be surprised. Maybe the worm ate that part of his brain?

There’s always a tweet, isn’t there…

Whoops

I don’t think I’d heard of Olivia Nuzzi until now, she’s a journalist who’s become the unfortunate star of her own story, having admitted to having an affair with “a former subject relevant to the 2024 campaign“, as New York magazine put it when they announced they were putting her on leave for that reason… and though I don’t know if she specifically named said former subject, everyone else is saying…

Yeah. Junior. GREAT CATCH, Olivia. Per Axios, she’s claiming the relationship wasn’t physical, and Bob the younger is denying it even happened… and though I obviously have no evidence either way, I’m oddly disinclined to believe him, given that he has form when it comes to cheating on his wife. Did it dozens of times to his previous one, why wouldn’t he do the same to the current one?

Anyway, this news comes hot on the heels of this other news:

A federal law enforcement agency confirmed it’s opened an investigation into Robert F. Kennedy Jr. after he allegedly cut off the head of a dead whale and took it home two decades ago.
The former independent presidential candidate disclosed the investigation on Saturday while campaigning outside Phoenix for Donald Trump.
Kennedy’s daughter recalled the whale incident in a 2012 interview with Town and Country magazine, which recently resurfaced and was shared extensively on social media. Kathleen Kennedy said when she was 6 years old, her dad got word that a dead whale had washed ashore. He got a chainsaw, cut off the whale’s head and strapped it to the roof of their minivan for a five-hour drive home.
“Every time we accelerated on the highway, whale juice would pour into the windows of the car, and it was the rankest thing on the planet,” Kathleen Kennedy recalls. “We all had plastic bags over our heads with mouth holes cut out, and people on the highway were giving us the finger, but that was just normal day-to-day stuff for us.”

I actually did see this story when it started circulating again, but for some reason I can’t think of I evidently chose not to record it here. But… yeah. That’s something else he allegedly did with a dead animal (as reported by his own daughter 12 years ago; how was that not more of a story back in 2012?). And, coming after his own admission of the business with the bear, I find it as entirely believable that he would desecrate a whale’s corpse as I do that he would cheat on his wife. Cos, you know, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Made for each other?

Yeah, so RFID… er, RFK Jr. dropped out of the presidential race to endorse the other guy. Not entirely surprising, there was a video that came out last month supposedly featuring Dampnut calling him to make some sort of deal. but even so, quite a lot of his fans seem to be pissed. Which is also not entirely surprising; if you were fool enough to believe Kennedy stood more than a mild chance of actually winning the presidency and would actually be any more than just another mere politician, you probably would be angry to be shown up for an idiot…

Interestingly, it appears Mrs Kennedy may be among the ranks of the less-than-thrilled:

I kind of feel that admitting your wife’s “very uncomfortable” about you slinging your hook with his lordship is not exactly the sort of thing you normally do in Rob’s position, but, well, this is him we’re dealing with. Will it make much difference to the outcome? I don’t know. I suspect Kennedy’s mob will probably not vote at all now if they can’t have him. Or probably for Kamala. I imagine they’re more likely to vote for her than the orange guy.

I suspect he’s doing this primarily out of spite (quite apart from the fact that his campaign was tanking anyway), because the Democrats have been smart enough to not adopt him just because of his family ties… but he’s not doing this just for that reason, he wants something in return from Trump. And something big, too, cos if he can’t be president then he probably wants something nearly as good. Maybe the attorney-general. Maybe the head of the CIA. Maybe the… vice-presidency?

Cos I’ve seen all of those postulated, but the third one has a problem, in that the position is, of course, currently filled by that couch fucker guy. Could Dampnut get rid of him and replace him with Mr Brain Worm? I have seen speculation online about whether or not Drumpf might dump Vance, cos the party has been having buyer’s remorse almost since day 1, but that speculation has also asked if he even can dump him… I forget exactly what the argument was, but it was something to do with J. Divans accepting the nomination at the RNC so that locks him in for ballot purposes or something. But Wormhead’s in it for something big, anyway.

And because’s there’s always an old tweet:

Strictly speaking it looks like he won’t actually be on the electoral ticket as such, but curious nonetheless how all those other differences have narrowed in the last few weeks. I mean, this was literally a bit over a month ago:

Talking about beating Trump on July 22. Meanwhile, this was Dampnut a couple of months before that:

The mutual admiration society is almost too much to handle, isn’t it. Anyway, somewhere along the way each of them has evidently decided the other is a pretty cool guy after all, and, well, now we have whatever the fuck this situation is now… like I said, I don’t think it’ll actually make much difference in real terms, I don’t think either side will gain or lose much by this. As for Kennedy himself… has he even got anything left to lose? How much more of his reputation can he trash? Cos he has done undeniably good things on the environmental front, it’s just the other shit about vaccines… especially the shit about Covid-19 being “engineered” to spare Chinese people and Ashkenazi Jews. But I have a feeling somehow we won’t be hearing much more from him after election day, cos whatever he’s signed up with Trump for, I feel both of them are going to get beaten to it by the Kamala and Tim show…

Daddy would be so proud right now

Just so you don’t think the elections all about Harris vs Dampnut, RFK the younger just had to remind of us of his existence with… THIS.

The decade-old question about how a dead six-month-old female black bear cub ended up in New York City’s iconic Central Park beneath an old bicycle has been answered. Independent presidential candidate Robert Kennedy Jr. on Sunday confessed that he was behind the incident after a fact checker from the New Yorker called him to verify the story.
In a video he posted on X, Kennedy said he had come across the bear in the morning when he was going falconing; a woman in a van in front of him hit and killed the bear.
“So, I pulled over and I picked up the bear and put him in the back of my van because I was going to skin the bear, and it was in very good condition, and I was going to put the meat in my refrigerator,” Kennedy said. “And you can do that in New York state. You can get a bear tag for roadkill bear.”
But the falconing day went longer than expected, and he had to go straight to a dinner in the city at Peter Luger Steakhouse, he recounted. That, too, ran late, and Kennedy said he realized he had to go to the airport and would not be able to go home to Westchester first.
“And the bear was in my car, and I didn’t want to leave the bear in the car because that would have been bad,” he said. “So, then I thought you know at that time this was the little bit of the redneck me. There’d been a series of bicycle accidents in New York they had just put in the bike lanes and so a couple of people were getting killed and it was every day and people badly injured every day it was in the press.”
He said, “I wasn’t drinking, of course, but people were drinking with me who thought this was a good idea.”
Kennedy mentioned that in addition to the dead bear cub, he had “an old bike in my car that somebody asked me to get rid of.”
“I said let’s go put the bear in Central Park and we’ll make it look like it got hit by a bike,” Kennedy recalled. What he did not expect was the media attention the stunt would attract.

To be honest I don’t recall this story from back in the day, but, well, it caused a fair bit of consternation at the time cos apparently bears aren’t something you normally find in Central Park NYC. Somehow he got away with this ludicrous plot—I mean, could a bicycle actually do fatal damage to a bear cub—until now, and I can’t imagine why he’s waited until now to admit it, nor what reaction he thought he would get. American presidential candidates, everyone: wouldn’t eat a human, but would’ve eaten a bear had he not been too busy playing with birds… Also, this was a couple of years after he was found with a brain worm that ate part of his brain and died (which tells you how good his brain evidently was), so I don’t know if he wasn’t drinking but I’m fairly sure he wasn’t thinking either…
