Bernie Sanders, in a NYT op-ed:

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the secretary of health and human services,is endangering the health of the American people now and into thefuture. He must resign.

Mr. Kennedy and the rest of the Trump administration tell us, overand over, that they want to Make America Healthy Again. That’s agreat slogan. I agree with it. The problem is that since cominginto office President Trump and Mr. Kennedy have done exactly theopposite.

Powerful and to the point. Sanders, unlike the nine former CDC directors whose joint op-ed ran the next day, doesn’t pull punches. But there’s no point demanding Kennedy resign, because he won’t. Sanders, and the rest of us, should call on Trump to fire him. The buck stops with Trump. Trump fires his appointees all the time. Almost no one lasted long in the Trump 1.0 administration, and it’s unlikely anyone will last long in the Trump 2.0 administration. (Including, perhaps, Trump himself, who is clearly unwell.) Kennedy ought to be the first to go.

Trump smells it too, hence this “both sides” post on his blog this morning. Public opinion is strongly against this abject vaccine quackery.
