Another case of #theFeloniousPOTUS being swayed by the last person to talk to him before he acts. One thing is for certain. This persecution of Chairman Powell will come back to bite Donnie and his enforcers “AG” Bondi and Ms Pirro on the tuchus sooner than later.

Robert Kennedy Jr is the same quack he was a year ago. Anyone who listened to him last year could have guessed what he would do as HHS Secretary. Senator Cassidy voted to confirm him. He is directly responsible for what is happening now. He should be working to remove Kennedy.

We don't spend more time on Vance because Vance is basically irrelevant. He's not going to be president. Not only down to his own lack of talent, but because he lives in a bag of rats. None of them like each other but they don't like him most of all.
i have written this a few times now but the reason JD Vance spends all day posting is that they barely tolerate his presence in the white house and have locked him out of every decision of consequence. he is basically unemployed
