I will say that his stuff about the food dyes and some of the preservatives deserve a serious conversation.
Yes, he occasionally hits a target. The American diet is something else we should all be thinking about.
However, either he's seriously anti-vaccination, or he's cynically exploited people's fears in order to gain support. Neither alternative is good.
Personally, I don’t think he’s clearing confirmation. And I agree with @jon-nyc that some of his anti-vax rhetoric has serious implications, even if no official actions are taken. But I also think it’s an issue whether he’s approved or not. The multitude of lies put out by public health has a lot of people not taking things at face value anymore.
There is overwhelming scientific evidence that says vaccines are safe. Great, says the skeptic… That overwhelming scientific evidence is being provided by the same groups that said 15 Days to Flatten the Curve, and told us that masks were ineffective…, then said they were, then not really, then told us to not step into public without one. The same public health and scientific researchers that said COVID was absolutely not a lab leak and obviously came from pangolins in a wet market. They told us the vax would prevent spread and we wouldn’t get sick. Then changed to we’ll get a little sick, but won’t spread. Then, yeah, you can still spread but Natural Immunity doesn’t exist, so what else are you going to do? Oh wait, Natural Immunity doesn’t exist work pretty equivalently to the vax, but the vaccine is safer… Unless you’re a kid. Or a teen. Or a young adult…
I can excuse those people for looking at the huge piles of scientific evidence about the safety of vaccines and being a little skeptical.

My point is it's not just the Covid vaccine he doesn't like.
Meanwhile, infant mortality is at an all time low. Let's not try and fix that, eh?

Cassidy. Very skeptical. There’s actually two committees of jurisdiction, the other is the Senate Finance Committee who’s head, Mike Crapo, is not a physician but his brother is.
I think the Turtle, Murkowski, and Collins will be no votes if there’s a fourth to make it stick.

What RFK jr. is most authoritative and actually very lucid in his thinking is on water conservation and management. The Trump regime of course, won’t let him anywhere near that and have in fact effectively muzzled him on the sidelines.
But as I have already stated RFK Jr. is not an optimal choice for portfolio to which he has been now confirmed. I am certain that he will prove to be just another of many distractions in the Trumpian sown chaos before us.

He faces an uphill battle anyway for voting to convict Trump. Todays GOP is no place for a politician who puts principles above loyalty to Trump.
The interesting thing is he was practically begging RFK to renounce the autism claim so he could vote for him. Kennedy wouldn’t.
I won’t be remotely surprised if he is a no vote. But he’ll be yes out of committee.
And I agree that the decision not to back RFK will be the decision not to seek reelection.
But careful what you wish for, once he decides he’s not running for reelection he can vote his conscience from here on out.

Before he was bought out by Trump, most normal conservatives (as opposed to whacky conspiracy theorists) admitted he was crazy. Now, apparently he's something else.
No, many of us still think he’s nuts and possibly dangerous. I will say that his stuff about the food dyes and some of the preservatives deserve a serious conversation. I mean, why the heck are they using dyes in ibuprofen, Benadryl, etc?
I think he's wrong in some of his views. Trump has already assured people he had a long talk with RFK on vaccines before nominating him. He's been told hands off, particularly in regard to the older, standard childhood vaccines.
OTOH, RFK has some views I agree with on sugar content, high fructose corn syrup, dyes in our food and medicine, population obesity and the cost of drugs in the U.S. vs. the rest of the world.

Yeah 4 pieces of broccoli was nanny state paternalism but wholesale reconfiguration of the food and beverage industry is America First. If you don’t get the difference it’s your deep state programming showing through.
