Sen Patty Murray (D-WA):

“If there are any adults left in the White House, it’s well past time they face reality… We cannot let RFK Jr. burn what’s left of the CDC and our other critical health agencies to the ground—he must be fired.”

  1. Why would she think there are any “adults” in the White House? Maybe she and fellow Democrats should get off their butts and actually do something? 🙄

  2. Question for RFK Jr.

    Do you remember all the promises made to Congress when questioned about what you would and wouldn't do in office? You seem to have forgotten all of them. You are a pathological liar with no medical qualifications who has no place in any position of power in government.

  3. Good luck with that.

    Marc Maron said on his new HBO special that Donald Trump is the only person alive who could find a Jewish Nazi to be his Deputy Chief of Staff… which kinda sums up how demented the lot of his administration is.

  4. Nothing can replace medical and science knowledge it takes years of studying before a person qualified to be hired as doctor or scientist.

  5. This needs to be DONE ASAP! We're about to go into the HIGH VIRAL DISEASE SPREADING MONTHS so there is NO TIME TO WASTE! GET HIM OUT NOW or they're going to face MASSIVE LAWSUITS!🤬

  6. RFK Jr.’s actions are not just misguided—they are dangerous. Protecting our public health infrastructure should be non-negotiable, and the White House needs to step up immediately.

  7. One way or another he's gotta go. Our lives are all in danger. If these antivax flat earthers don't want to get vaxinated then don't, but don't take them away from the rest of us who would like to stay alive. It's just like what they did with abortions. Forcing their beliefs on all of us.

  8. CDC is paid for with our taxes

    It’s not some toy for rfk jr to tear apart based on HIS personal theories and conspiracies

    I demand he be removed from office and a competent, well educated, and capable leader put in his place

    republicans voted for him in mass, hold them all accountable

  9. at least these are things one says when it sets in that he's poisoning the collective well. it's a NOW thing, not a "when practicable" thing

  10. Would you take health advice from someone who looks as unhealthy as he does? All those years on heroin have destroyed his critical thinking skills! Combined with his actual ignorance of science and medicine it renders him totally incompetent to make any judgements on vaccines, antidepressants, etc.

  11. It is going to come down to a coalition of willing states to form a new Center for Disease Control. This entire administration is hell bent on conspiracy and destruction of the federal government so a handful of oligarchs can own everything. They don't care. States had better get moving on this.

  12. Sen. Cassidy could’ve been the John McCain with a thumb’s down on RFK Jr nomination but instead told America he was promised all good by Kennedy. Cassidy owes all Americans to get rid of Kennedy. This entire admin has lied during Senate confirmation hearings. Guess perjury doesn’t exist now.

  13. RFKJr is to public health as Bin Laden was to US hegemony...the first domestic public health terrorist.

  14. News flash: their reality is different than ours. Ours is the real one, but theirs is just as real to them (at least the non-nihilists in the room). What will make them see?

  16. There are no adults left in the white house. The only things left there are treasonous bastards that need the wall.

  17. It should be obvious, even to Trump’s “I love the poorly educated”, that you can either support Trump or the Constitution but not both.

  18. Wondering if all of Congress either totally not up to representing, don’t have families, or just plain STUPID. Do they really believe this will not kick them in the A$$?

  19. There are no adults left in the White House. There are only power-hungry, greedy sycophants-angling for power & money by hanging on Grampa Golf’s coattails. They are not concerned about the collapse of the CDC because they don’t think bad things like disease or food poisoning can happen to them.

    1
  20. Agreed. If Trump won't fire him we know that elf on the shelf Mike Johnson will never introduce articles of impeachment, although lying to the Senate committee certainly is grounds, among other things. He will kill Republican voters as well as Democrats!

  21. Dear Senator Murray,

    Burning the CDC down is precisely their plan. Disease is another millstone this administration wants to hang on the necks of minorities and the poor. It’s a weapon they will happily use.

  22. True journalists inherently want to report huge stories. But I have yet to see or hear "Fascism has arrived in the U.S." from any MSM outlet.

    Did I miss it?

  23. He MUST be pushed out. What needs to happen. We are here. Recently heard about Monarez, we cannot allow this to continue. Firing competent people in favor of unqualified people who swear allegiance to the ideologies of the far right is not something that belongs in America and won't be tolerated.

  24. We can only hope!! Since all the Administration is certifiable and deranged, it's safe 2 say, all Adults present and accounted 4, they just voted Absent.😅😂

  25. Sen Murray, your words will not be heard.

    Trump and his troll goal is to destroy our country, to wipe out the old, the young, and the poor sick.

    Project 2025.

  26. Let’s be serious. The 2025 playbook is being implemented. RFK jr. is doing exactly what they want him to do. Nobody is going to fire him.

  27. The only adults left in Trump’s White Power House are the permanent residence staffers (these are the butlers, chefs, valets, groundskeepers, and others who kept the actual White House running smoothly from day to day).

  28. Fired? He’s adored! They suck him off and give him lollipops every time he does something utterly cruel, nonsensical and unscientific. He’s having the time of his life!

  29. RFK JR is bent on making AMERICA SICKER by destroying the CDC structure. He is a MADMAN who needs to be fired. There has to be some sense in this Regime that this guy has no business in there.

  30. Without Republicans, nothing can get done so RFK Jr. will be burning down what's left of the CDC. When trump is done putting lackeys in place and transferring all of the wealth from treasury to himself and cronies, the US will be a third world country.

    0
  31. I agree wholeheartedly with Senator Murray but I get so tired of words without action. If they're not playing by the rules, neither should we. Decorum won't work. Please do whatever it takes to make is so. I promise I'll continue to vote for you.

  32. So…what’s your senatorial plan?

    All we can do is vote, donate, wave signs and stuff.

  33. There are no adults left in the White House, just sycophants who are begging for money from the oligarchs who are in charge. The ultra wealthy will get their healthcare in countries that believe in science and invest in research. The rest of us can go suck wind.

  34. Strongmen don’t build — they tear down. Courts, scientists, regulators, the press — anything that can say “no” has to be weakened or replaced. It looks chaotic, but it’s the playbook: hollow out the guardrails, centralize power, and leave the people defenseless. That’s what we’re seeing now.

    0
  35. How many times and how many people have already called for his resignation or termination so far?

    Looks to me like he'll have to be removed. The loss of life from his policies doesn't have to happen.

    Are we going to allow him to cause the deaths of any of our loved ones or ourselves?

  36. Donald and his handlers have made very sure that there aren't any adults in the White House to slow their march toward authoritarian rule. It's now like one of those weird posters with babies dressed in suits. Except the babies want to rob and kill us.

  37. . "REPUBLICANS"

    They are allowing Trump!

    They can stop this at any moment, they have the majority, all they need to do is OBJECT and it all stops!!!

    Call out all Republicans in congress. That is the fight.

  38. Impeach! Don't call for Republicans to do your work. Insist on articles of impeachment be brought, and dare Republicans to vote against vaccines.

  39. How fucking delusional do you have to be to think there are any "adults" left in the White House at this point. Someone should slap them in the face when they say shit like this.

  40. Trump only fires those who don't praise and adore him. RFK, Jr. is safe. While the country goes down the drain.

  41. The problem Sen Murray, is, that it’s all intentional. This is the plan, they intend to kill as many people as possible. Eugenics… Literally

  42. He’s not gonna be fired — he needs to be impeached and we might get some Republican Senators on board to do it

  43. Should never have been appointed. But that goes for every member of this untested, inexperienced, fawning so-called administration. They are literally winging it every step of the way.

  44. Trump is a fan of catchy slogans. How about this one? Trump the train wreck. Single handedly wrecking the economy, rolling over the constitution, and destroying industry along with workers, womens, and minority rights.

  45. Who was the republican doctor who got assurances from rfk he’d not fuck with vaccines? I believe he wants to kill millions of us. He’s more insane than ever.

  47. Why does our healthcare have to be weaponized? How can all the science and best practices in healthcare become null and void because the inmates are running the asylum??

  48. Adults in the White House? Are you KIDDING? Any functional adult has long since left - or been fired - from what's become the Orange Sociopath's Oval Romper Room!

  49. Given how harmful is the CDC's track record, and given how that agency disgraced itself these last few years, I'm for abolishing it completely.

    Failing that, fire as many people as possible. The less capable is CDC the less harm can it cause.

    I trust RFK Jr' to do what's right for public health.

  50. That cabinet meeting showed that every one of those people who hold some of the most powerful positions in the world are timid, weak, feckless people. Nothing good will come from them

  51. I think RFK Jr wasn't lying when he said he had a brain worm.... what else explains his wacky, crazy ideas and behavior He's just as dangerous as Trump is

  52. What’s more fucked up is that the medical care that’s being denied the American people will be accessible to these assholes when it’s needed.

  53. There aren’t any left. Your colleagues on the other side of the aisle and some in our own party made sure of that.

  54. That’s Putin’s plan - destroy America from the inside out. Trump did his best to facilitate that plan in his first term, and he’s already declared martial law in a couple blue states. Remember “states’ rights” Republicans? They are a special breed that hibernates through every Republican Presidency.

    0
  55. Fired by whom? trump? Are you going to ask Putin to hold an intervention? Find a congressperson to introduce articles of impeachment. Make the Republicans own it on the record. Show Johnson's complicity if he blocks it.

  56. Note to Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA): Cabinet secretaries are subject to impeachment by the House and trial by the Senate and removal from office if convicted. Just sayin'.

  60. By who? The wealthiest Americans & MAGA Republicans voted in a Republican Congress & Senate. Democrats can challenge some things but Trump owns SCOTUS. We're screwed until next year elections!

    It's actually worse in the White House. These are adult brown-nosed parasites. The most dangerous kind of bloodsuckers. There is no hope they will mature into something less noxious because they are at the peak of their development.
