Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jrs relationship with the White House has become non-existent, fueling speculation that he could be the next member of President Donald Trumps cabinet to get the ax, according to a report. Kennedy, the de facto face of the so-called Make America Healthy Again movement, has become a polarizing figure at the Department of Health and Human Services.
Rumors have been swirling for months that Trump has had it with Kennedy, according to Puck News, while the MAHA Action group is said to be despondent over Kennedys diminished standing inside the White House, the outlet reports, citing a source who works with the movement.
Part of the frustration reportedly stems from criticism that the health secretary has undermined longstanding vaccine policies, which have generated a slew of negative headlines, as well as carrying out draconian cuts to the department.
Several sources told the publication that Kennedys remaining time in office is limited. Some said that he could go after the midterms, while others said he could in the coming months.

Expect to see wholesale defenestrations with more christo-fascist con artists rising to the top of the trump cesspool.

(23,022 posts)He's a knee jerk kind of guy who does whatever pops into his head at the time. He appoints unqualified people to jobs just because they say nice things about him. But he's quick to can them if they make him look bad. Which isn't hard to do when said people are grossly unqualified and their boss is a complete moron.
