It’s all performative for folks on the Right. Well, as least everything that requires them to not look like they would execute us all for a nickel.

Keep your eyes on Jack Schlossberg. He's without a doubt, the best Kennedy warrior to keep the heat on RFK, Jr., the biggest embarrassment to the family. He's just not going to let RFK, Jr. get away with anything.

We will need a new committee to study whether we approve this Department. 🤪

Good morning from Illinois! I'm happy to be here. It's kind of cozy - not many people here yet. I love all things music, STEM and Democracy related. 🎶🧮🦋
