By waiting so long to end a useless campaign KINO cost NC voters/taxpayers significant time and money:
Ballot reprint to remove RFK Jr. delays mail-in voting
Due to a state Supreme Court ruling related to former presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., mail-in voting is delayed across North Carolina, including Buncombe County.
The state Supreme Court ordered the N.C. State Board of Elections to remove RFK Jr.’s name from the ballot Sept. 9, forcing all 100 counties to reprint millions of absentee ballots that were printed and ready to be mailed starting Sept. 6.
The decision upheld a Sept. 6 state Court of Appeals ruling that overturned a trial judge’s ruling that would have forced Kennedy’s name to stay on the ballot. The move will delay ballots getting to voters by weeks and could cost taxpayers $1 million statewide and more than $58,000 total in Buncombe County, including $28,000 to reprint ballots....

Re: The Wall of Weird
"Dementia Care Home" is an apt name for the US House.

My odds in the pool just got a bump. It helps that KINO's hearings precede the Kash and Tulsi hearings.
Finance? Good reporter, he immediately answered the question raised:What to know about RFK Jr. as he faces Senate confirmation hearings
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President Trump's controversial pick to head the federal Department of Health and Human Services, will appear Wednesday before a Senate panel that is crucial to advance his nomination.
Kennedy is due to appear first at the Senate Committee on Finance, the panel that will ultimately be the committee with the deciding vote on whether his nomination to be the next Secretary of Health and Human Services advances to the full Senate. He must receive a majority of senators to be confirmed to head HHS, which encompasses America's federal health agencies.
The committee's jurisdiction largely focuses on the department's mammoth Medicare and Medicaid health insurance programs for seniors and low-income Americans, which make up the largest share of mandatory spending in the federal budget.
He will head next to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, or HELP, which is scheduled to question Kennedy on Thursday....
Opps. How many are already dying due to KINO's "doubts"? Now for what may be the knockout punch:RFK Jr. has raised doubts about vaccines, but data shows how many lives they've saved
... "If you look at the 10 top childhood illnesses every year, vaccines prevent more than 1 million cases and more than 10,000 deaths" in the U.S., he said. Worldwide, the numbers are even greater, with an estimated 2-3 million lives saved by childhood vaccinations each year....
Caroline Kennedy calls RFK Jr. a "predator" in letter to senators a day before his confirmation hearings
Caroline Kennedy, the cousin of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., sent a blistering letter to senators on Tuesday — a day before his confirmation hearings — that described him as a "predator" whose actions "have cost lives."
In the letter to committee leaders, the former ambassador to Australia urged senators to reject his nomination as health and human services secretary, alleging that he "preys on the desperation of parents and sick children," as well as his own family members.
"It's no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because he himself is a predator," the two-page letter said. "His basement, his garage, and his dorm room were the centers of the action where drugs were available, and he enjoyed showing off how he put baby chickens and mice in the blender to feed his hawks. It was often a perverse scene of despair and violence."


... She also said that while her cousin has discouraged parents from vaccinating their children, he has vaccinated his own.

DonOLD loves murderers."Even before he fills this job, his constant denigration of our health care system and the conspiratorial half-truths he has told about vaccines, including in connection with Samoa's deadly 2019 measles outbreak, have cost lives," Caroline Kennedy wrote.
(more trashing of KINO)
Jack Schlossberg is a writer, political correspondent and "the only grandson of the 35th United States president John F. Kennedy and First Lady Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy":

Ka-ching:
Senator Rips Into RFK Jr. — And Gets Him To Admit He Spread A Conspiracy Theory
Pretty sure Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) won't be supporting Kennedy's nomination. (with video)
... “Out of 330 million Americans,” Bennet reflected, incredulously, “we’re being asked to put somebody in this job who has spent 50 years of his life peddling in half-truths, peddling in false statements, peddling in theories that create doubt about whether or not things we know are safe are unsafe.”
Bennet opened his line of direct questioning with a doozy:
“I’m asking you: Yes or no, did you say that COVID-19 was a genetically engineered bioweapon that targeted Black and white people but spared Jews and Chinese people?”
Kennedy hedged, responding that he didn’t say that, he was just quoting a study that said it....
Bennet then referenced a section in one of Kennedy’s books, asking if he’d written “that African AIDS is an entirely different disease from western AIDS.” When Kennedy demurred with an “I’m not sure,” Bennet offered to provide the book to the committee chair....
“It doesn’t matter what you come here and say that isn’t true, that is not reflective of what you really believe,” he continued. “That you haven’t said over decade after decade after decade, because unlike other jobs we are confirming around this place, this is a job where it is life and death. ... It is too important for the games that you are playing, Mr. Kennedy.”
“I hope my colleagues will say to the president that out of 330 million Americans,” he concluded, “we can do better than this.”

Re: The Wall of Weird
Dark horses Kash and Tulsi may make us all losers:
Trump’s Cabinet nominees face sharpest bipartisan grilling to date and other takeaways from Thursday’s confirmation hearings
It may come down to who gets the first vote. For example:
... While Patel appears on solid ground to win confirmation,

Take your time, then vote NAY!Gabbard and Kennedy could face a more difficult path.
Collins could play a key role if she opposes Gabbard’s nomination, as she sits on the Senate Intelligence Committee, where Republicans have a 9-8 majority, meaning Gabbard’s nomination could fail if Collins joins all Democrats in voting against Gabbard.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune indicated Wednesday to CNN that he didn’t think he could set up a confirmation vote for Gabbard if the committee votes down the nomination.
After she questioned Gabbard, Collins said it was “too early to tell” whether Gabbard would receive enough committee votes to make it to the full Senate. Asked by CNN’s Manu Raju whether the jury was still out on her support for Gabbard, Collins said, “That’s correct.”
“I need to review the entire hearing,” she said. “I want to make a careful decision.”

I may still win the pool:
More than 15,000 doctors urge Senate to reject RFK Jr as health secretary
Physicians call Kennedy ‘dangerous’ and point to harmful conspiracy theories about vaccines and science
![]()
Genius MAGA Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) the johnson, again.Pro-RFK Jr. letter to the Senate includes names of doctors whose licenses were revoked or suspended
A letter submitted to the U.S. Senate that states it was sent by physicians in support of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s nomination as secretary of Health and Human Services includes the names of doctors who have had their licenses revoked, suspended or faced other discipline, The Associated Press has found.
The letter was meant to lend credibility to Kennedy’s nomination, which has faced strenuous opposition from medical experts due to his two decades of anti-vaccine activism. Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, a medical doctor who boasts on his official website of an effort he created to vaccinate 36,000 children against hepatitis B, expressed hesitancy about Kennedy's nomination and is seen as a key vote.
The AP found that in addition to the physicians who had faced disciplinary action, many of the nearly 800 signers are not doctors. The letter with the names of those who signed was provided to the AP by Sen. Ron Johnson’s office after he entered it into the Congressional Record on Wednesday during the first of Kennedy’s two confirmation hearings.
Opps.Among those who signed it were a self-described journalist, a certified public accountant, a firefighter/paramedic, a certified health coach and someone who said they had a bachelor’s degree “with an emphasis on Jungian Psychology.” The signers include at least 75 nurses, as well as physician's assistants. More than 90 did not include any credentials at all.
Over 20 were chiropractors, representing an industry that has funded Kennedy's work. An AP investigation found that donations from a chiropractic group represented one-sixth of the revenues collected by Kennedy's anti-vaccine nonprofit in 2019.
The letter was organized and submitted by MAHA Action, which is run by Del Bigtree, who worked for Kennedy’s presidential campaign and is a longtime anti-vaccine activist. The Washington Post reported Wednesday that Kennedy transferred the trademark for the “MAHA” slogan to an limited liability company run by Bigtree. Kennedy reported that he received $100,000 in income from licensing the slogan and said in his financial disclosures that he had transferred the trademark for “no compensation.”
MAHA stands for “Make America Healthy Again,” a play on President Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again."
Emma Post, a MAHA Action spokesperson, said in an email that the letter was “shared and circulated organically in a grassroots manner with explicit instructions that it was for physicians only to sign on to.” She did not address the AP’s questions about what further steps the group took to verify credentials, if any.
Seems clear to me.... The letter includes the header “ Doctors for Robert F. Kennedy Jr. ” and begins with the words, “We, the undersigned physicians." It says lower down that it “reflects the collective voice of physicians and medical professionals” committed to addressing chronic disease.
DonOLD = Ongoing Legal DeficienciesThe AP’s review found that at least 10 doctors who signed the letter had run into trouble with state medical boards or their board certification body for a variety of alleged misconduct. Sanctions they faced included having their license revoked or suspended, being put on probation, receiving a reprimand or other action. One received a warning letter from the Federal Trade Commission, which said he was unlawfully advertising products as treatments or prevention for COVID-19, including intravenous nutrient therapy and vitamins.
Among the signers was Paul Thomas, an anti-vaccine doctor who voluntarily surrendered his medical license in 2022 after Oregon's medical board found he had engaged in repeated and gross negligence in the practice of medicine.
Thomas did not admit or deny the finding. NBC News reported that Thomas was part of a team assembled by Kennedy who remotely advised an anti-vaccine activist in Samoa during a measles outbreak there on how to treat children with vitamins. A person who responded on behalf of Thomas, DeeDee Hoover, said the information the AP had was inaccurate but did not reply when asked what specifically was wrong.
Other signers included Dr. Simone Gold, who was reprimanded by California’s medical board after she pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor for her conduct at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021....
At least two of the doctors were disciplined, prior to the pandemic, for improperly giving out vaccine waivers, including one who had his license revoked and another who was put on probation. Another doctor's license was revoked for refusing to follow COVID-19 guidelines....
