👀 Senate HELP Committee Chair Bill Cassidy (R) and Ranking Member Bernie Sanders (I) just sent Robert F. Kennedy Jr. a joint letter asking him to testify at an April 10 hearing to explain his "proposed reorganization" of HHS.

This would be laughable if it weren’t so horrendous. I emailed Cassidy first to beg him not to confirm RFK, Jr., and then to ask him how he’s feeling now. Received exact same letter with his justification for approving him. Cassidy’s staff is protecting him from our outrage.
In Victorian England a man like Cassidy who had publicly shamed himself in a matter so important to the nation would already have retired to his library with a bottle of whisky and a revolver.
Many of their social mores appear ridiculous to us now. But they weren’t wrong about everything.
If I got this letter I would immediately get a migraine headache. This man, RFKJ, is awful. I am glad he will have to provide some accountability for if and when he indirectly kills people. He is so bad. He is insane garbage.
Isn’t it a bit “too late” to talk about reorganizing the HHS? Medical doctors and research scientists who are “experts” in their fields are being fired or asked to resign… They will likely go to other countries and organizations that will VALUE their expertise!
The executive doesn't OWN government agencies, just administers them. Congress authorizes, funds, and owns them. Congress could simply create a new agency with the same responsibilities as the one dismantled. Hire the folks who lost their jobs when their agency was dismantled and Bob's your uncle.
Finally! The GOP chairs of all the committees have been refusing to hold hearings on anything Trump related. I talked about it in this 👇 thread. Be sure to look at all 3 pics in the first post before reading the rest of the thread. https://bsky.app/profile/maudi63.bsky.social/post/3llchl44e5k2i
Dr. Bill Cassidy - I'm sure you'll say some big bold words and end up rubber-stamping Kennedy's plans. Grow a soul before you die. Time's getting short.

These funds ensure treatment for substance use and mental health, including harm reduction for the opiate and fentanyl crises.

Bring in the DOGE fuckers too.
Just MORE LOSING…
The TRUMP EFFECT!
Too little, too late.
Time to turn in that medical license, Bill, you haven’t deserved it in years.
These jackasses are moving at the speed of government as drug-addled maniacs take flamethrowers to everything.
It's far too late to do anything. The time to do something was in November.
Maybe they should call in Susan Collins?
