1/ If accurate, this is almost certainly a conflict with the Posse Comitatus Act, which prohibits the use of the military for domestic law enforcement, including the National Guard if they are federalized.

For our kids, I’ll be voting NO on his confirmation.

Not only is this not accurate—many autistic people do all those things every day—it’s utterly dehumanizing.

He’s basically calling people useless eaters. I really don’t like making direct comparisons to Nazism, but this feels hard to separate this from the rhetoric behind T4.
The full quote from RFK, Jr. is truly disgusting and this is 100% him calling for institutionalization of autistic people. This is horrifying.

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.
