"You have to wonder if Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the “pro-life” MAGA
Republicans have a quota of Americans they want to kill off, given that
sabotaging health insurance, food benefits and life-saving vaccines all seem to
be top priorities in the Trump administration and the Republican Congress.
Still, it takes a special person to deliberately sabotage children’s health.
RFK Jr. is shockingly up to the task.
According to
The Washington Post, Kennedy’s Health and Human
Suffering
Services Department has “terminated seven grants totaling millions of dollars
to the American Academy of Pediatrics, including for initiatives on reducing
sudden infant deaths, improving adolescent health, preventing fetal alcohol
syndrome and identifying autism early, according to documents obtained by
The
Washington Post.”
Why on earth would Kennedy do such a thing, other than the fact that he’s
another Trump cabinet member totally unqualified and unfit for his job?
It looks like the AAP had the audacity to disagree with the former
brainworm-ridden, heroin addict and to buck MAGA orthodoxy. Some of the stated
reasons for cutting off the group’s funding was its “use of ‘identity-based
language,’ including references to racial disparities and ‘pregnant people,’
and insufficient focus in at least one grant program on nutrition and chronic
disease prevention, which they said runs afoul of HHS’s priorities,”
The Post
reported. HHS spokesman Andrew Nixon said in a statement that the grants were
canceled because they “no longer align with the Department’s mission or
priorities.”
Or maybe the AAP’s real crime was hurting RFK Jr.’s widdle fee-fees."
