  1. The idiocy in Congress knows no bounds.

    “Sen. Ben Ray Luján (D-NM) tried to corner Kennedy on Medicaid funding but ended up getting humiliated when Kennedy pointed out something wrong with his question.

    LUJAN: “If President Trump asks you to cut Medicaid, will you do it?”

    KENNEDY: “Oh, it’s not up to me to cut Medicaid. It would be up to Congress.”

    LUJAN: (Laughs nervously) “Mr. Kennedy, you don’t want to answer? I’ll move on.””

    Everything is a conspiracy. For 2 to 6 months, when the truth is finally admitted by those crying conspiracy theory.

  2. “Sen. Bernie Sanders erupted and made it clear he wasn’t happy that Kennedy’s former nonprofit, Children’s Health Defense, was selling unvaxxed onesies for $26.

    “ARE YOU SUPPORTIVE OF THESE ONESIES!?” Sanders shouted.

    Of all things to get worked up about, this was a wild one.”

    Fauxahontas was just worried he might cut into her cut of pharma cash. She ranks 2nd in Congress on money from pharma companies.

    “Hilarity ensued when Elizabeth Warren inadvertently made Kennedy look GREAT with the perfect softball question.

    WARREN: “You’re not going to take money from drug companies in any way, shape, or form?”

    KENNEDY: “Who, me?”

    WARREN: “Yes, you.”

    KENNEDY: “Oh, yeah. I’m happy to commit to that.“

    I don’t think any of them want to give me money, by the way.”

  3. Dem Senators complaining the loudest about RFK Jr. are the ones taking the most money from big pharma. What a coincidence! 🙄

    “The hostility @RobertKennedyJr experienced at his hearing was directly proportional to how much Pharma money each Senator received. In fact, each of them simply repeated the same attacks we just saw flood the mass media (all of which were blatant lies). 🧵”

    And so you know, Pence is not who he claims to be. He’s a lying fraud. Again.

    “Recently, as I show here, a left wing group (created to hide pharmaceutical money) publicly announced a campaign to take RFK down, after which the lines they concocted flooded every news publication and Carolyn Kennedy quoted them as her own to the media.”

    “For example, they (and the senators) kept claiming RFK caused a deadly measles outbreak. In truth, it was due to children being killed by the vaccine, nurses covering it up, and the Samoan government banning it, and until recently no one blamed RFK.”

    —-

    “Remarkably, since the Left wing campaign failed to stop RFK, they then recruited a Right wing dark money group (run by Pence) to help. They attacked RFK for being “too pro-choice” (to splinter Republican votes), while remarkably Democrats attacked him for being too “pro-life.”

    Pence is a snake.

  4. “Senator Warner relentlessly attacked RFK for 17 minutes with each of the industry talking points. As it happens @MarkWarner got $654,210 from Big Pharma.”

    “At RFK’s hearing @SenWarren relentless attacked RFK and accused him of endangering America by “selfishly” making it possible to sue vaccine manufactures for producing injurious products. This is insane, until you remember she’s the #2 pharmaceutical money recipient in the Senate”

    This video taken nearby backs up what the X poster says. The chopper heads straight for it. The planes lights are clearly visible to the chopper.

    “JUST IN: Over 50 former and retired FBI agents send letter to Senate leaders ahead of Kash Patel’s confirmation hearing, demand that they confirm him.

    The ‘Reform The Bureau’ former agents say Patel is the only one who can fix the “broken” FBI.

    The letter was sent to Senate leaders Chuck Grassley, John Thune, Dick Durbin and Chuck Schumer.

    “As a group of retired FBI Special Agents … we support President Trump’s nomination of Kash Patel as the FBI’s next Director.”

    “Many Americans have lost faith in the FBI, and for good reason. The FBI is broken. And with this loss of trust has come a rise in threats at home and abroad.”

    “Drug cartels and Mexican gangs have taken control of the border and have infiltrated cities across the country bringing violent crime and drugs with them.”

    “China has grown more brazen, engaging in espionage that robs U.S. businesses of their intellectual property and undermines our national security.”

    “The FBI has been used as a tool in the weaponization of the DOJ to go after its political enemies. Lives have been shattered … This needs to stop.”

    “Never has the FBI faced such an urgent and compelling need for comprehensive reform as it does today. Mr. Patel has proven he possesses the breadth of experience required to address these challenges.”

    “His leadership, expertise, and vision make him uniquely qualified to guide the FBI through this pivotal moment. For these reasons, we stand in full support of Kash Patel’s nomination.”

    “DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has announced she and Trump have stopped ALL GRANT FUNDING for the NGOs who are assisting in the invasion of the United States

    Organizations like Catholic Charities and Red Cross received over $340 MILLION in 2024 from DHS assist illegals crossing the border.

    “We’re not spending another dime to help the destruction of this country.””

  8. But talk to doctors who have worked near the border, and they will tell you illegal aliens get ­unlimited taxpayer-funded health care, and many have serious health problems.

    “Ask me how many of my pregnant patients who are illegals have Medicaid?” said a doctor I know who worked for two years at hospitals in Arizona, New Mexico and west Texas, and wishes to remain anonymous.

    “One hundred percent.”Bonus for disability

    Most of these patients, he says, are also on some form of disability benefit, such as Supplemental Security Income, which is intended for low-income aged, blind or disabled US citizens.

    Obesity, hypertension and adjustment disorders are among the most common reasons for the extra benefit, although one young woman he saw had a disability attributed to a car crash in Texas in which she was involved while crossing the border.

    “They don’t speak the language so now it takes me, on average, an extra 15 minutes per patient trying to speak with them through a translator. Guess who pays for the translation services?” the doc said.

    The taxpayers, of course.

    “Every illegal jumping the border in Arizona and New Mexico was given an envelope with documents for health care, food stamps and $2,200 in cash, all part of their transit papers. Their first stop after getting this envelope was either Walmart or the emergency room.”

  9. NJ,

    That’s where that 60% increase in Medicare/Medicaid costs originated. But shhhhh. It’s a secret….

    Just another ticking time bomb Biden left for taxpayers and another mess for Trump to clean up.

  10. Simple, they want that cash and don’t give a dang about Americans health.

    “Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: “Today, over 100 members of Congress support a bill to fund Ozempic with Medicare at $1,500 a month. Most of these members have taken money from the manufacturer of that product, a European company called Novo Nordisk. As everyone knows, once a drug is approved for Medicare, it goes to Medicaid.”

    “And there is a push to recommend Ozempic for Americans as young as six over a condition, obesity, that is completely preventable and barely even existed 100 years ago. Since 74% of Americans are obese, the cost of all of them, if they take their Ozempic prescriptions, will be $3 trillion a year. This is a drug that has made Novo Nordisk the biggest company in Europe.”

    “It’s a Danish company, but the Danish government does not recommend it. It recommends a change in diet to treat obesity and exercise. Virtually Novo Nordisk’s entire value is based upon its projections of what Ozempic is going to sell to Americans. For half the price of Ozempic, we could purchase regeneratively raised organic agriculture, organic food for every American three meals a day and gym membership for every obese American.”

    “Why are members of Congress doing the bidding of this Danish company instead of standing up for American farmers and children? Because Novo Nordisk is one of the largest funders of medical research, the media and politicians and the medical schools all go along with them.”

    There are very bad known side effects, but cash is their only concern.
