The RFK vote thread

Apparently the finance committee votes tomorrow at 10 to let him have a floor vote.

Not sure if the other committee of jurisdiction has to vote also, or if one is enough for a floor vote.

Interesting

Is it bad I first thought that was AI?

[89th]

Oh how far we've come in a few months.

[jon-nyc]

Although some respect for not deleting it.

Contrast that with Vance’s twitter purge.

@jon-nyc Wow! Just noticed it was posted by VP Pence.

I shake my head, but I should not be surprised. President Trump appears to be easily manipulated, changing his mind about people if they speak well of him.

I think in this case he was buying RFK's endorsement with a promised position.

‘serious commitment from the administration’

That and $2.25 will get you anywhere you need to go on the NYC subway.

[jon-nyc]

Having said that, I’d like to know what the commitments were.

Something to do with not being crazily anti-vax, presumably.

[jon-nyc]

Did he commit to not ordering placebo-controlled studies of childhood vaccines we know are safe?

[jon-nyc]

Or did he just commit to not revoking their approvals?

[Horace]

Maybe senator Cassidy's staff can tell you if you give them a call?

There's an old story about a frog helping a scorpion cross the river....

Good analogy

Kennedy (R-La) and Vance probably cornered up Psycho Bill and had a heart-to-heart conversation.

That, and Moon Griffon (that's grih fawn' for you damn Yankees) has been plastering Cassidy on the radio.
