With all due disrespect, RFK Jr. is far from the only person to have stepped into Rock Creek recently. There are places along the creek where one does get the whiff of sewage, and much longer stretches where one doesn't.

- cafard 1y agoRFK Jr. is old enough and in theory intelligent and educated enough to know better. The only reason that his frolic in Rock Creek did not lower him in my estimation is that it was pretty low to begin with. I posted my remark because "swimming in raw sewage" gives a pretty lurid picture, as of Oliver St. John Gogarty's escape through the Liffey--"not really swimming, just going through the movements."

Expose people directly to the deadly pathogens instead of using vaccines/inoculations), without getting anywhere close to a national consensus. He is surrounding himself with sycophants of his strange pseudo-scientific beliefs. He claims to believe in science and testing, but the choices he has made as a political leader at the head of the HHS have been top-down dictates and fabricated + sock puppets “research” he is too scared to have peer reviewed in public by de-anonymized reviewers.
