Summary
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. accused Bernie Sanders of taking millions from Big Pharma during a heated exchange, but Sanders refuted the claim, stating his donations came from workers, not corporate PACs.
Kennedy repeatedly insisted Sanders was the top recipient of pharmaceutical money in 2020, but financial data shows no corporate PAC contributions to Sanders.
Meanwhile, Kennedy has profited from anti-vaccine activism, earning millions from lawsuits and speaking fees.
The debate ended without Kennedy answering whether he would guarantee health care for all as HHS secretary.
Curious, what could he have done without congress, or overturned by trump?
Just off the top of my head: He could have released the whole unredacted Jack Smith Stolen Secrets report. Something far more damning to Trump than anything else. But nope, that got memory holed because of Judge Cannon even though it was no longer her case since she dismissed it and had no standing to sue to stop its release. So he literally already had precedent of the law being broken/ignored to keep it under wraps.
Yes, it would have been illegal. But the Supreme Court gave the President immunity for “official acts.”
As if the stuff Trump is doing right now isn’t way more illegal.
Biden wasn’t willing to sacrifice a sliver of his stupid fuck principles to prevent this.
