BREAKING

GOP Senator Bill Cassidy says he is voting YES on Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s nomination to serve as Secretary of Health and Human Services.

This guarantees that his nomination will advance out of committee and move to a full Senate vote.

Cassidy is up for reelection in 2026 and is worried Trump will have him primaried. Shouldn’t worry about that. He will. He was one who voted for impeachment.

If it were a tie, what would have happened?

in today's world, elon musk would get diagnosed as being on the autism spectrum - that's what that means. and that would be correct. the diagnosis missed a lot of ppl back in the day.

People have no idea how bad this is. None.

The jig is up people. Republicans are in on the takeover. They have been working on it for decades. Stop hoping they are going to save our democracy when the call is coming from inside the house.

Its almost like in the last 20 years we have updated and expanded autism diagnoses (ex classifying aspergers syndrome as part of autism) smh. The most powerful person in the world is repeating debunked claims. Every scientist is immensely frustrated. That should tell you something

It's okay they turned off science. NSF has been shut down and will be internationally discredited by the end of the year.

Learn Mandarin if you do science.

This. Science has evolved and why now more kids can be diagnosed.

And like an attorney, with no science or medical degree or experience, who spews conspiracy theories is going to figure it out? 🙄

Cassidy should lose his medical license. Never go to a doctor who prizes their ambition and power over your wellbeing.

Well, at least not one of the Dems voted yes.

Autism is hereditary. There are more cases because we are understanding it more.

swaffordaustin.bsky.social•19 days ago

But don’t worry. Bill Cassidy got serious commitments. Lol. These gutless, soulless losers

rob-reiner-fan.bsky.social•19 days ago

Many of these GOP senators must be old enough to be grandparents. They made the conscious decision to put Trump over the lives of their grandchildren. All for fear of being primaried?

mooglekingofspace.bsky.social•19 days ago

It's a disease.

They are only trying to kill the poor like their God told them to do.
