In reply to the discussion: Sadistic Trump Admin Rescinds Min Staffing Rules for Nursing Homes [View all]slightlv
(7,229 posts)47. Nah... the person above my initial reply mentioned hegsbreth...
who I call kegsbreath by rights of his being an alcoholic. Kegsbreath isn't part of HHS... which *should* be RFK and his irresponsible bunch. But kegsbreaths name was mentioned... and I didn't think he had anything to do with health OR human services, other than throwing people out of the country.
Main point should be we not only have to get trump out of office... we have to completely demolish everything he has done, replace what he's stripped, and start trials on treason for a whole LOT of people. Either that, or find yourself a nice little country to retire to, if you have the money. Or find out what awaits in the next life, if you don't.
