      News snippet: A prominent healthcare advocacy group is calling for the US health secretary, Robert F Kennedy Jr, to step down from his post after he downplayed Covid risks by saying: “I’m not scared of a germ. I used to snort cocaine off of toilet seats.”

      Kennedy, who was appointed secretary of the federal health and human services (HHS) department despite his avowed anti-vaccine activism, made that remark on the 12 February episode of Theo Von’s podcast This Past Weekend.

      The president of Protect Our Care, Brad Woodhouse, issued a one-word statement on Kennedy’s comments: “Resign.”

      The group added that Kennedy’s comment about cocaine – which as recently as 2023 was involved in nearly 30,000 overdose deaths in a year in the US – “continues to lay bare why he is the most dangerous … person ever to lead such an important federal agency”.

      Kennedy on the podcast mentioned the drug in reference to his continued attendance at in-person recovery meetings during the pandemic. “Like, if I don’t, if I don’t treat it, which means for me going to meetings every day, it’s just bad for my life,” said Kennedy, who has spoken publicly about past struggles with drug addiction.

      That’s like me urging the school bully to stop stealing my lunch money. 🙄 Performative. It won’t happen.

      The entire Trump administration is filled with these quack hacks and they all need to resign or be removed. I can’t believe people voted for this mess a second time.

      If you go bankrupt or embezzle, you never get hired to be a financial planner, but somehow a former drug addict sniffing coke off of a toilet seat can be Senate approved to be the Health secretary for this administration.

      I think the most shocking thing that has come out of this mess is that RFK Jr is implying that he stopped doing cocaine off of toilet seats.

      In any other administration, this comment would’ve gotten someone instantly removed. Not under Trump. He has made such a mockery of the presidency that nothing qualifies for removal anymore… just sick.

      Nah, tell him to share more stories. Ask him the dirtiest place he shot up. Ask him about the most intoxicated he has been and drove. I bet he has lots of good stories.

      No better role model for the war on drugs…”Look at me kids! If I can snort coke off a toilet seat and get this job, so can you.”

      Wait fox news spent weeks talking about a bag of cocaine in Bidens Administration but RFK Jr openly admits to doing cocaine and i haven’t even see a headline.

      I don’t think i will ever understand American politics.

      And of course this isn’t even in the top hundred list of craziest things he’s done.

      The full comment is worse than that. He said he was such a drug addict that going out to meetings is the only thing keeping him sober and that the COVID lockdown would kill him. He didn’t care about anyone else. Said germs didn’t worry him because he did coke off toilet seats. He’s an addict AND selfish as fuck.

      If this was YOUR child’s school principal, you’d better believe parents would be storming the school with pitchforks. Why, for everything that’s good and decent, would he remain in charge of our health and wellbeing?

      That’s their last straw? The Tylenol autism conspiracy theory, the firing of the the highly staff, ending cancer research, those and whole list of this moron’s bad decisions were all reasons to move toward getting rid of the bozo.

      I don’t give a shit about his filthy cocaine habit. It’s his moronic health advice. He’s going to get people killed.

      Listen, I love that shit as much as the next person but rfk is fucking disgusting.

      Also speaks to the hypocrisy of this administration „going after drugs.“ They have to blow up innocent fisherman in the Atlantic in order to stop coke from entering the country but they’re all doing it. Rfk, don jr, Gaetz all of them.

      Again, he told this anecdote in order to say he picked up so many diseases from this practice he gained natural immunity to certain diseases. It was a weird part of his antivax campaign

      He was a known heroin user who got his brother hooked on it, who then died of an overdose. Why is any of this surprising?

    24. 22EnricoPalazzo on

      Dude. I don’t like RFK Jr. But come on. Everybody has skeletons and this one is what it is.

    25. LineElegant3832 on

      Ever since he bugged out on the fainting guy in the Oval, he *wants* to get fired

      I’m still having a hard time reading these things and accepting it is in fact not the onion. I feel like we’re watching a bad movie play out. Maybe more like we’re stuck on that pirate ship boat that swings and just want to get off but they won’t stop the ride. We’re just stuck with constant nausea.

      The FDA recommends all flu shots should now be snorted off of the Walgreens toilet seat to build additional immunity.

      What about everyone screaming how he’s obviously unqualified and directly responsible for harming Americans health and healthcare??? Sure. Coke. He’s an addict. What do you think would happen if we had a pandemic right now. With tariffs right now and definitely not fixing anything about the medical supply system since 2020 right now.

      If this ever… ever happened during any other administration, heads would have rolled.

      Cocaine and toilet seats were how the brain worm spent a lot of Saturday nights.

      God, I remember the huge controversy when Clinton admitted that he once tried pot and didn’t inhale, 1992. It’s amazing how different the surface of the American culture was back then, appalled over minutiae just a few short years before Epstein bought the island.

    37. bitwarrior80 on

      Is this the same RFK Jr who was also weekend paleontologist pals with Epstine? Digging up dinosaurs, snorting coke off the toilet.

    38. ItsTheOtherGuys on

      I miss when a weird shout cost you a political shot, now we have the Sec of Health literally admitting to doing coke in the past and its just another day

    39. purpleWord_spudger on

      The headline wrapped in such a way that I started reading from RFK by mistake and got pretty excited for a second. What a let down
