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.

          Imagine thinking healthcare workers didn’t have enough money in 2020 of all years.

          What they didn’t have was rest if anything.

          Maybe you should do like RFK Jr and check for brain worms, since you forgot the damn pandemic.

          Oh my god, imagine being you, thinking you’ve got it all figured out and smugly laying it out in the most laughable way against maybe the most lefty, grassroots senator in Congress. It reads as so mind numbingly dumb. It’s exhausting just to read it.

          You “ain’t got no” reasonable perspective here my friend. I don’t know what I would expect from someone who typos their own username though. Whatever that expectation should be, you came up short.
