Watch: RFK jr confirmation hearing now

[Darkwind]

After reviewing his book, it’s pretty clear RFK jr has no understanding of science.

I doubt that you understand it. You personally reviewed his book? Reviewed.

Read the book.

 

[Votto]

This senator's a real dickhead.

Yes, we don't have to watch to know that.

 

[JGalt]

Not going to bother watching. Hearing is a perfunctory scam, for show. Whether nut ball goof or not, he will be confirmed with ease. Not worth the time or coverage.

I disagree. But if he isn't confirmed, someone else will be. Trump's record on cabinet confirmations has gone good so far. One cabinet member failing to be confirmed isn't going to shut down the Trump administration.

 

[Darkwind]

Loud-mouthed, unwashed hippies. They should be tasered and taken out in cuffs.

They are attempting to interfere wih a legitimate government function. According to the left, they are insurrectionists and should be jailed for a year, without council, and then summarily sentence to decades of incarceration.

 

[The Duke]

I disagree. But if he isn't confirmed, someone else will be.

Confirmations for cabinet positions are largely a dog and pony show.
Pretty sure Trump could send them all home, confirm all picks, then bring them back.
Ofc that would rustle some jimmies.

True. Not one single protester got into the congressional chamber during Jan. 6.

Specifically, My plate -- what used to be the food pyramid -- is agriculture-driven, not health-driven. The science that exists today shows that the wrongful concept of low fat, low saturated fat, and cholesterol causes heart disease, it is flat-out not true if not an outright deliberate distortion of reality. The current dietary recommendations are based on Ancel Keys's associated study in which he threw out all key data points and chose only those that supported his nonsense about saturated fats and animal-based nutrition.

Then there is the overwhelming statistical proof that since the inception of the food pyramid, Americans' obesity rates and metabolic syndrome, along with the rise of diabetes and Alzheimers, have increased.

It’s pretty hard to blame the defunct food pyramid and the now food plate for poor health when Americans don’t even follow these recommendations.

Adults Meeting Fruit and Vegetable Intake Recommendations ...

This report describes the percentage of adults in the United States who met fruit and vegetable intake recommendations.

And that’s not even getting into the activity guidelines that few people follow.

Read the book.

It’s repetitive stream of conscious nonsense with citations for absolute cranks that even dabbles in HIV denialism.

Jr favors legalizing pot. No person who advocates smoking anything has the qualifications for running any health department. Especially smoking a drug clearly established as causing a variety of mental illnesses including psychosis, suicidal
Ideation and crippling anxiety disorders. Allowing the subjecting of others to that poison by smoking it is beyond ignorant.

 

[White 6]

I disagree. But if he isn't confirmed, someone else will be. Trump's record on cabinet confirmations has gone good so far. One cabinet member failing to be confirmed isn't going to shut down the Trump administration.

They confirmed a young National Guard Major without even command experience to run the armed forces. Whatever would make you think this nut ball would be in question for that post? You know better, then to sit there feigning suspense. It's a done deal.

 

[Zincwarrior]

He has a speech impediment. You are a disgusting person to make fun of the disabled.

If he testified in a wheelchair, you would make fun of him.

So gross.

Not a speech impediment. Thats nerve damage. He's babbling.

As a reference: I have nerve damage. Often it comes across like I am tongue tied like that. I recognize some of it.

 

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

Explain what’s wrong with the current diet recommendations.

.




Not a thing.

You just keep on eating it, six meals a day if you can swing it.

When the wrongfully considered dietarty recommendations of the US government started back in the late 60's and early 70's, there was a massive campaign to demonize cholesterol and saturated fat. That campaign set the entire educational doctrine to demonize anything that was not grain driven and meat dissociative.

Three entire generations have been wrongfully eudated (indoctrinated) into the belief that a heart-healthy diet is 7 to 11 servings of carbohydrates. Is it any wonder that Alheimezer (Type 3 diabeties) and obesite has grown to epidemic proportions?

The entire baseline of the FDA and the Health and Human Resources of the Federal government needs to be dismantled and rebuilt along the real science of nutrition.

I have issues with Bobby Kennedy, but so far, HE is the ONLY persons running for office or has been nominated, who will correctly tackle this issue. Ameica is in real trouble healthwise and it isn't some distraction of vaccines that he isn't against but the reeducation of Americans on their diet.

 

[Votto]

He is a political hack being installed to punish science and stop research and learning.

Why? Because Trump wants revenge on science in general because it highlighted his incompentent response to the Covid epidemic. He wants personal revenge.

So he picks a politician who peddles vaccine conspiracy theories and attacks science.

Were it not for that, Kennedy wouldn't be there at all.

Glad to see the protestors.

RFK denies that men can have babies, so he is obviously a scientific fraud that is ripe to be burned at the stake.

Heretic!!

When does the clown show end people?

Yep. Be sure to get those 11 servings a day of grains.

So he has a medical condition. Why hate?

 

[Rambunctious]

The people will not look kindly on the republican led senate if any of Trump's appointments don't get confirmed...

Well, there are other avenues of administration for cannabis.

My very sick husband got some relief from eating it in the form of chocolates or little cheddar crackers. He had never used the drug recreationally and we lived in a state where it's approved for medical use and is strictly regulated. It is the best treatment I've ever seen for restless legs syndrome.

Otherwise, I agree. I think recreational pot smokers are stupid.

I think obesity comes more from overeating anything and getting zero exercise. You can eat what’s recommended in the old food pyramid and stay completely healthy if you balance it with sufficient activity. Calories-in vs calories-out.
Way too many Americans sit on their asses and the only exercise they get is answering the door to pay the food deliverer.

"Command experience" got 13 Americans killed during Biden's Afghanistan withdrawal, not to mention, leaving thousands of American behind and billions of dollars worth of equipment in the hands of the Taliban, Iran, Russia, and China. "Command experience" was also responsible for DEI policies in the military, wasting valuable resources on a stupid war in Ukraine, low recruitment numbers, transgenders whom nobody wants to serve with, and allowing China to overtake us in military strength.

Hegseth will do just fine, as would RFK Jr. if he makes it. But we'll see.
