    Another idiot going after Fauci. RFK jumping on the Rand Paul bandwagon.

    Rand Paul is a fucking ophthalmologist who thinks he’s in the same class as Fauci. Dunning Krueger much?

    I’m glad the interviewer really stood up to him and pushed back, for what it was worth

      Yeah, its really sad that we’re so used to TV hosts letting republicans rant and rave about every insane, unhinged thing they are desperate to present as truth without even a question or concern about it, that it stands out and is shocking and unusual when someone just… challenges them and pushes back on the absolute industrial grade spewing of raw verbal sewage.

        Well, it wasn’t just verbal sewage coming out of his mouth, it was abject lies, combined with a whole bunch of personal attacks against her in particular, and she just wasn’t having it. His hypocrisy and double standards… He was practically slapping her in the face with them and daring her not to call him out, and she called his bluff, all right. It was plain as day for every viewer to see. And when she did it, he had the temerity to call her unfair. It was outrageous, and she made him look like a complete buffoon.

        It was quite refreshing.

          I’m assuming he’s just used to the “liberal media” playing the idiotic “objective journalism” card.

          Which means they just let Republicans get away with saying absolutely insanely wrong bullshit, and then maybe let a Democrat counter it and turn to the camera and say, “See? We presented both sides!”

          The way they treat things like science (as a general rule) is absolutely criminal in my view. I’m surprised to see her pushing back like this. I hope this kind of interview style catches fire everywhere when dealing with lying liars and their disgusting lies.

          I’m really interested in what your idea of verbal sewage is, if you’re arguing that lies and insults and bullshits arent it.

      CNN is pretty good about fact checking these liars. I saw one poor guy on CNN a few nights ago having to explain how wind turbines and the power grid work after dumbfuck trump was blathering about how when there’s no wind there’s no power and everyone sits in the dark.

        CNN has also been pretty good at calling in members of the new independent YouTube media like Brian Tyler Cohen as commentators to ROYALLY FUCK UP these mealy-mouthed propaganda parrots from the MAGAsphere, and it’s glorious.

        Here he is just slitting the throat of bleach-blonde fembots like MAGA parrot Katie Zachariah:

    Trump gets mad at RFK, suddenly he’s recommending the measles vaccine and barking up Fauci’s ass - because what else can you do in RFK’s shoes? Dude’s destined to be a fall guy.

      Yes. He got sick years ago and it caused him to sound that way.

      Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s voice issue is spasmodic dysphonia, a rare neurological disorder where the muscles that control the vocal cords spasm involuntarily, making his speech sound strained, broken, or “strangled.” It is lifelong, and treatment commonly involves botulinum toxin (Botox) injections to reduce the spasms.

    But when RFK Jr. was an environmental lawyer and had figured out that Monsanto and glyphosate were all part of a giant conspiracy, he had it right. Right?
