    Healthcare is likely the leading cause of death in the U.S. So it stands to reason the country might be better served with someone other than a doctor at the helm, someone who can wean Americans off healthcare at least to some extent.

    Maybe you're correct since the overwhelming majority of American who pass away are seen by doctors immediately prior to death.

    I had in mine the established third leading cause of death based on medical error, now add deaths due to standards of care. See: 2020.

    Pretty funny that Dems are losing it over RFK when these are the people he's replacing. RFK is a stallion for 70 years old. Do we really want some overweight, sickly looking tg to be making decisions at HHS?

    RFK Jr on abortion:


    "Kennedy has since said that abortion should be legal until a fetus "is viable outside the womb" and supports the codification of Roe v. Wade, which was replaced by the U.S. Supreme Court in the Dobbs decision."

    "If confirmed, RFK, Jr. would be the most pro-abortion Republican appointed secretary of HHS in modern history," Pence wrote."
