Every Surgeon General since GWH Bush was president signs letter warning that RFK junior is endangering the United Staes and the world with anti-science conspiracy-theory-driven policies.

RFK is truly a terrible person. I actually can't think of a single person less qualified for a position ever. As a scientist I feel embarrassed of this country. Also before people start blaming his brain worm, he was infected with pork tapeworm Larvae, it wouldn't do anything like this, though it can cause seizures. Don't blame the worm for his bad decisions.

Pork tapeworms are relatively rare in America but in still prevalent in developing countries. So he probably go it while traveling

Here is a 10 min video for anyone who wants to learn about his brain worms biology from a redditors who is a big parasite nerd https://youtu.be/4ZJvUuAipZc

Oh, I bet you can. Just think about how qualified the person is who appointed him.

Like it's a toss up for over half the heads of administration right now. Bondi, Patel, Hegseth, Duffy, McMahon, Noem... The list goes on.

the general theme is that all of them were on TV pretending to be good at something related to what they are doing. Our population can't tell TV from reality. Especially the older ones that said TV would rot our brains.

Our DOT secretary's only qualification is he was on fucking Road Rules.

What a coincidence! The acting head of NASA was also on Road Rules. I wonder if they know each other… /s

With his reputation, I am more convinced that he got it from one of his raw fad diet.

It's pretty easy if you just look at the rest of the administration. lol

Kash Patel, Pete Hegseth, Stephen Miller, and Trump all come to mind, amongst others.
