GET ME REWRITE: Cod liver oil salesman Robert Kennedy Jr. conducts a master class in hubris during Texas visit

 

Paging Bill Cassidy, M.D.  Your monster is on the loose!

Headline:  PBS, 4/6/2025

Devi Shastri and Amanda Seitz report for the AP:

Kennedy said in a social media post that he was working to “control the outbreak” and went to Gaines County to comfort the families who have buried two young children. He was seen late Sunday afternoon outside of a Mennonite church where the funeral services were held, but he did not attend a nearby news conference held by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention about the outbreak.
