The RFK Jr playbook is clear:

Cherry pick “medical data” + layer in his preconceived notions = announce a ridiculous statement.

Since some will unwittingly believe him, we corrected the record, as we will always do, now and moving forward.

Michigan Republican seems to be screening his constituents for a tele-town hall.

Friendly reminder to use your library card. Even if you don’t have time to read, rent a free audio book to keep them going. If you don’t already have one, get a library card. 😊
