Saying they are doing "damage" to the healthcare system given it's current state is absolutely wild.

[mikethoars]

Why wouldn't you bring RFK on to your show and let him answer your concerns personally. He is so more educated and across the issues that you speak about that it would be embarrassing for msnbc

[donalynette]

Please don’t let these people damage our health, more than we are already damaged!!!

The petition in question was filed to the FDA in 2022 by lawyer Aaron Siri on behalf of the group ICAN not on behalf of RFK Jr. The petition seeked to revoke one particular vaccine - IPOL - (which is one of six currently licensed polio vaccines) only for infants and children and only up until a proper trial was conducted as IPOL (licensed in 1990) was licensed based on a new technology at the time including growing the polio virus in monkey kidney cells that have been genetically altered to replicate indefinitely similar to cancer cells and those cells end up in the vial of each dose. The clinical trial relied upon to license that vaccine reviewed safety for only 3 days after injection before it was licensed. ICAN wanted to make sure that the vaccine was licensed based on proper safety data

[jeffhaddix]

Having safety concerns about vaccines and wanting to study them better and more extensively is considered an "attack" and "taboo"?

I don’t want to hear about how worried McConnell is, he is largely responsible for this mess!!

[susanryder]

Wow, this was complete and utter bull crap every time I watch something from this network, it gets worse and worse. I’m wondering if they’re getting a kick back from the pharmaceutical companies

[UsaFreedom]

I don’t know about anyone else, but at age 72, I grew up with vaccinations and I feel blessed. My Aunt had polio, a friend of mine was left crippled from polio. I liked growing up without the shadow of polio, diphtheria, tetanus, typhoid, measles, and mumps hanging over our bodies like a sledgehammer, waiting to bring us down. No thank you!

[canadiangirl]

The US is going down a very dark rabbit hole…

[Raphaelfiennes]

Your explanations are consistently clear and straightforward, making complex financial concepts easily accessible. It's a privilege to have you as a mentor, and I'm grateful for the time you dedicate to educating us on financial matters. Your guidance is invaluable, especially during uncertain economic times, and I appreciate your commitment to helping us navigate financial challenges with confidence.

The Dunning–Kruger effect is the thesis that those who are incompetent in a given area tend to be ignorant of their incompetence, i.e., they lack the metacognitive ability to become aware of their incompetence.

[LindaPeterson-fp]

If they confirm RFK and their children and grandchildren get polio - they can thank themselves! They will be held accountable!

[Samantha-lgbw]

I'm surprised trump didn't threaten to jail opposing senators

[Epark]

You better start homeschooling your kids! I’m a teacher and if people stop vaccinating we will see a lot of consequences! Like HARRIS said, we are going BACKWARDS!!

[justinreilly]

These talking heads have no idea what they’re talking about. They should just admit it.

Left or right, politics on one side, science on one side, overall political science on one end., chilling triangle.

[twatts]

Bernie is going to vote to confirm him!

[samgarcia]

I am a registered Democrat and I strongly support Robert Kennedy for HHS secretary

[HarryWebb]

As a lifelong conservative, I fully support RFK's nomination for government!

[WayneMcCoy-wkbs]

Are these Analyst really asking Americans to believe Moscow Mitch got a pair to oppose Trumpy Dumpty 😊
