Is he actually trying to kill everyone?
If his goal was to kill everyone, I can't see what it is that he would do differently.
Does anyone know what RFK's endgame is, or even whether it is thought he has an end game?
Shouldn't we be calling all the senators who confirmed him, and asking them what are they going to do now?

Per a source with knowledge, the entire #HHS Office of #InfectiousDisease & #HIV / #AIDS Policy, or #OIDP, was just fired.
This breaks my heart.
The Trump/Musk regime want to take us back to the days of HIV/AIDS "killing all the right people" with MAGA Republicans cheering on the virus.
U.S. President Donald Trump's foreign aid retreat is gutting funding for HIV treatments, risking lives globally and threatening to unravel decades of progress toward ending AIDS as a public health threat. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/03/27/world/politics/trump-foreign-aid-hiv-globally/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #us #republicans #donaldtrump #hiv #africa #vaccines
Prince Harry said he was "in shock" after quitting as a patron of Sentebale, a British charity he set up to help young people with HIV and AIDS in Lesotho and Botswana, following a conflict between trustees and the chair of the board. @USAToday reports:

Today in Labor History March 24, 1987: 250 ACT UP members protested at Wall Street to demand greater access to experimental AIDS drugs and for a coordinated national policy to fight the disease. Seventeen ACT UP members were arrested.
The Wall Street Journal reported that the U.S. #government is also considering cutting domestic #HIV prevention programs, which threatens to undo twenty years of efforts to fight the virus.
Valeriia feels the familiar tendrils of fear through her body as she walks into the hospital for her routine checkup.
Her #HIV diagnosis is no longer a death sentence – one jar of pills means another month of life-saving medication.
What destroying the literal health of the body politic looks like. Here is a list of the grants canceled by #HHS. They include research on #Cancer, #Covid, #HIV, #Alzheimer's. As @GottaLaff says, #ProLifeMyAss (I think that's how she puts it).

U.S. President Donald Trump's slashing of foreign aid funding is putting South Africa's young HIV patients at risk, with 13% of its population living with the virus. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/03/20/world/science-health/us-cuts-hiv-patients/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #sciencehealth #us #africa #southafrica #medicine #hiv #donaldtrump #poverty
Also he's factually wrong.
He HAS hurt many people!
People are *starving to death* RIGHT NOW because of his #DOGE activities. A generation of #HIV survivors will be dying in a few months to years because he took away their medications. It is likely some of us will die of cancer in the future because he has crippled major research programs, etc. etc.
That said, I do not condone any violence against people or property. That only gives the power back to the oppressors! #Resist, #boycott, bear witness... #VOTE!
#ElonMusk is the worst! Oops, actually he comes in second after the #OrangeMan himself.
