The possibility of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. becoming Health and Human Services (HHS) secretary if former President Trump wins has rankled Democrats and the public health community as he gains influence within the former president’s transition team. Speculation about Kennedy’s future role has grown after Nicole Shanahan, who was Kennedy’s running mate before he suspended his campaign last month, said recently that he would do “an incredible job” at HHS should Trump win in November.

That’s kind of the point of why we (and President Trump) like RFKJr, isn’t it? Alarm bells from all those who deceived us in the first place.

A cabinet position for Junior is exactly what I suspect and fear. The number of votes that Trump gains from Junior's endorsement is NOT worth it!

The effort to undermine RFK is intense, as RFK has said he intends to hold those responsible for the "vaccines" and mandates accountable.

Nah! RFKjr should be a HHS czar so he doesn't need Senate approval. His focus is narrowed on vaccines/mandates and other such things. RFKjr will prevail where he has many years of expertise. (He does deserve a corner office.)

Are they seriously implying that republicans should be afraid of a democrat? I thought all liberals were geniuses and smarter than any conservative. At least that what democrats always tell us.

I'm OK with RFK Jr. if he shakes up the agency that mandated an endless list of vaccines for children and foisted the barely-tested mRNA vaccines on people hardly at risk for COVID, including very young children. I'm of the generation that got polio, smallpox, tetanus and diptheria vaccines only, and we survived childhood just fine.

Nope, I don't trust him. Never have. Never will. Anyone who runs around begging "Please let me into your group" as this nutcase did with both Trump and Kamalamadingdong deserves to be relegated to the trash heap! He's a LOSER with a capital L (oh, yeah, and he's bought and paid for by the Deep State, too).

If Democrats are "alarmed" then he's likely a good choice. That he wants to "hold those accountable" isn't something that will happen. We've all seen how DC will work overtime to protect themselves. Now, can he shed light on the problems and issues related to the rollout? Sure, but don't expect people to be going to jail or anything like that. But, the record should be set straight so we aren't making the same mistakes in the future and the public knows what truly happened.

Local politicians called for Police Commissioner Edward Caban’s ouster Friday after the feds shockingly raided his home earlier this week. But Mayor Eric Adams appears to be sticking with his handpicked top cop, at least for now, and is considering bringing on a celebrity attorney to represent him should any legal troubles be in the offing, The Post has learned. The attorney — Alex Spiro, of the Los Angeles-based Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan law firm — was once referred to by The New Yorker as the man who “keeps the rich and famous above the law” and has a laundry list of swanky clients,

The House Education and Workforce Committee is yet again doing the job the media won’t, by holding Dem VP hopeful Tim Walz accountable for his atrocious record as Minnesota governor — this time over an infamous, massive episode of COVID fraud. Quick recap: A Minnesota charity, Feeding Our Future, took advantage of pandemic-era rules that let student-meal programs cooperate off school grounds to run as many as 250 utterly fake meal-assistance sites to siphon off close to a cool $250 million in federal aid funds. That was spent not on feeding kids but on things like luxury cars and high-end real estate; per Attorney General Merrick Garland,

Those who applaud Hamas on campus and go so far as to wear their headgear or demand, “Intifada Revolution,” for the most part do not comprehend the depths of moral sickness of those whom they so enthusiastically support.

Hunter Biden just showed the perils of playing the game of chicken with yourself. For months, many of us have marveled at the sight of Hunter careening toward a cliff while declaring publicly that he was prepared to go all the way. The Justice Department was never going over the cliff because they had nothing to gain or lose in open-and-shut cases in Delaware and California. There was never a serious question of convicting Hunter of these crimes, just a will of the Justice Department to secure them. Special Counsel David Weiss inexplicably allowed serious felonies to expire, refused to bring obvious crimes as an unregistered foreign agent,

The 2016 presidential campaign will be long remembered for the false allegation that Donald Trump colluded with the Russians to warp the election. Citing the bogus “Steele dossier,” loser Hillary Clinton and other Democrat grandees claimed that the victorious Trump was an “illegitimate” president. Almost immediately, the left and media then pushed for the appointment of special prosecutor Robert Mueller. He assembled a ‘dream team’ of partisan prosecutors to prove Trump-Russian collusion.

Yellen says that Republican-dominated states like North Carolina are greatly benefiting from tax incentives under the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act and that eliminating them would be a “historic mistake,” according to a draft of a speech she will give Thursday at a community college in Raleigh.

Former Vice President Dick Cheney, a lifelong Republican, will vote for Kamala Harris for president, his daughter Liz Cheney said Friday. (snip) In a campaign ad for Liz Cheney as she sought a fourth term as Wyoming’s lone congressperson, Dick Cheney called Trump a “coward” for trying to “steal the last election using lies and violence to keep himself in power after the voters had rejected him.” The ad did little good for his daughter in a deep-red state that once held the Cheney family dear but is now thoroughly in Trump’s corner. By a 2-to-1 margin, Liz Cheney lost her Republican primary to Trump-endorsed attorney Harriet Hageman.

Perhaps this recent announcement by Liz Cheney and her father, Dick Cheney the former Defense Secretary, will awaken a few more. Go back to the 2016 election and the rise of outsider, then candidate Donald Trump. There was one other genuine outsider in the race, Ben Carson. Who was moved into position as Carson’s campaign manager during that well-documented “splitter strategy” effort to install the Hillary Clinton/Jeb Bush illusion of choice? Answer: Mary Cheney. Yes, the IC has a lot of ways to wrap their tentacles

He’s also been a lifelong Democrat, which has been head-scratching to me. I sometimes wish I could ask, “How can you be a lifelong Democrat—did you hear what you yourself just said?”

Hunter, it seems, just can’t get a break. First, he gets convicted of all three counts on an illegal gun purchase. That doesn’t sound like much but it carries a potential 25-year sentence. Bad luck, that conviction. This week, his trial for tax evasion was to begin. At the last minute, he trotted out a scheme where he pleads guilty without admitting guilt. (It’s a lawyer thing.) The prosecutors were having none of it, and the judge was skeptical. So then, Hunter just entered a straight guilty plea on all nine counts. They carry a potential 17-year sentence. If he were sentenced to the maximum on both the gun and the tax charges,

Merchan had scheduled Trump’s sentencing for Sept. 18, but on Friday, he postponed the date to Nov. 26 “if necessary,” according to his order. Turley, on “America Reports,” claimed that Merchan’s rulings against Trump during his case were advantageous to his reelection bid, suggesting that maintaining the September sentencing date would have further intensified support for the former president.
