Of course he does. This mush mouthed brain dead stack of rotten shoe leather is a COMPLETE disgrace to the Kennedy name. The only thing keeping this sorry sack of shit out of a white jacket and a rubber room is his family's legacy AND MONEY.

I'm curios, does anyone know an ex heroin junky that went straight edge and didn't substitute heroin with another addiction? Because I don't
In conjunction with this, we are also getting rid of epi-pens in EMS vehicles, planes, and hospitals because this goes beyond a having allergies problem.
Daily reminder not to feed into bullshit talking points about fentanyl from the borders. Nothing this administration does is about fentanyl, fentanyl is just the new marijuana or crack - a justification for exploitation and abuse. For blaming minorities and foreigners.
Don't get me wrong - fentanyl is fucked. There is a real crisis out there.
But this administration doesn't give a shit about that crisis. They never have, they never will. Here is exhibit A.
"This administration is so unpredictable!"
Is it though? It seems pretty simple:
Does it help people and not directly benefit the ultra wealthy? Kill it.
Does it hurt people we don't like or boost the oppressive power of the state? Boost it!
That seems to be the Trump administration in a nutshell.
What was his uncle and father think of the man he has grown to become? What a evil horrible nan.
"This administration is so unpredictable!"

Yes, they're way too reliably wrong for it to be accidental.
[RFK voice] I killed my brother by forcing hard drugs on him that he'd get addicted to and ultimately overdose. All I'm doing now is killing the American people that are addicted to drugs. What's not to understand about that?
Critics warn that cutting Narcan funding could reverse life-saving progress, especially as fentanyl-related overdoses persist.
Isn't that the idea?
Yup, there's an alleged epidemic of fentanyl pouring through our borders, and we have resources to save lives. But that isn't their goal.
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
Everything good must be backed up with "We'll fight you over this if we have to."
Protests used to be the warning before the fight.
Too bad some people are anti-gun and love saying how your constitution talks just about national guard in that second amendment. Or love laughing about sovcits. I mean, sovcits are mostly inventing explanations why they shouldn't pay debts, or so I've heard.
You don't think there's any good perspective in "the fight" without being always prepared, do you?
I find it funny, I've just seen a post how all of USSR's history was an attempt at a shortcut to becoming a second USA. Because, well, from Russia of 1917 that didn't seem plausible via slow evolution, they chose revolutionary, destructive, centralized approaches, ignoring all those ethics and small things and nuance. So somehow after USSR's collapse more and more Americans, apparently, started thinking it was a good idea.
Probably because when USSR still existed, it was just another country on the map. Strange regime, strange laws, strange life. Poverty. But it existed and was real and not too weird, still inhabited by humans after all, and Americans would see a very different mechanism giving some kind of perspective. Like teaching something about physics and engineering they show borderline cases - one extreme, the opposite extreme, a few points of the characteristic function between them. Now they don't.
I've taken to the approach of simply asking "are you willing to die for these beliefs?"
... And the honest answer is why we are here. In general when people are wordy about something bad, it means they've decided not to fight, but prefer to cover it with indignation.
56 million to drop the OD death rate by nearly a quarter? This is exactly the sort of thing I want to see my taxes doing, directly improving people's lives, and the cost is a drop in the bucket for federal budgets.
And his reasoning is bullshit, you can work to address the deeper cause while mitigating the symptoms, it isn't an either/or
Doubly infuriating is that they have NO intention of "addressing the deeper cause". This asshole drug addict is just "personal responsibility"-ing drug addiction.
"Why don't you just have your family send you to the best treatment centers available like I did?!"
He should check if he's still addicted once he gets rid of the narcan
We NEED to send the Military to the Border to STOP FENTANYL DEATHS!
-The SAME people Stopping this CHEAPER Program that ACTUALLY stops FENTANYL Deaths!
We NEED to send the military to Washington DC to STOP THIS ADMINISTRATION AND STOP FENTANYL DEATHS!
Death cult
People act like RFK Jr. is such a bad guy. They forget it's not him. It's the worms.
The worm is just another of RFK's victims.
It died of starvation.
Why would his brain slug do this??
Republicans fully committed to their platform of spite and hate.
He is a danger to us all. The whole starting tariffs to punish Canada and Mexico for fentanyl making its way into the country was obviously a farce. They don’t give one single fuck about anybody but themselves!
This sucks. I worked in EMS through the peak of the opioid epidemic, and once Narcan became commonplace and widely available, our OD calls dropped noticably.
I was at a music festival and a group of people were saying their friend stopped breathing. We confirmed and i supplied the narcan from a donation program and a friend who has administered it before brought him back while we called for paramedics who came within a few minutes and took over. The guy survived. RFKjerk wants that guy to have died. He has zero place in health or the government
He has zero place on planet earth.
I honestly have no words... This one is hitting me in ways that I cannot describe. What these people have done to my generation through the creation of this epidemic is inhumane, and this step back has made me have a full blown cry. Hug the ones you love, you never know who is suffering. If you are reading this and you are suffering as well, know that you are loved too.
