What gets me is you can sue your doctor, the nurses, the hospitals, the labs

for medical malpractice if you are injured or if you die as a result of the care you received.

But RFK, Jr. flies high above and won't be held accountable for the potential harm he's causing with his directives.

If there is any accountability assigned it goes to the agency and you, the taxpay, covers it.

He'll soon eat something that kills him, like some kind of worm or other awful thing to die from.

what he's doing is unconstitutional and homicidal. there could be justice down the road, just as there was for the nazis in germany.

just because he's not roving around mowing people down with a machine gun he's killing people just the same and for no good reason just the same.

WWII was not orderly. Yes I have hope for justice. I don't expect it will just fall in our laps. Hard times await. The violence is already here with ICE and the atrocities being committed against detainees by ICE.

I mean I also think occasionally about how mussolini met his justice. bottom line is we can't reliably predict the future, but we can advocate for and act in ways that promote democracy and justice.
