“Samudzi is concerned that a Kennedy appointment could result in policies that halt research and dismantle demonstrably proven health interventions.”

I assumed it is already well-known that this is exactly the goal of his nomination.

Sure, it was them who acted tough for the rewards when there were no risks and now are reluctant to actually take those risks. And this is textbook hypocrisy that deserves to be called out.

I’m not a vegan, nor claim or aim to be one. But if I went about loudly proclaiming that I was, using this to justify my actions, and then it became public knowledge that I am in fact not a vegan, then it would be the same hypocrisy. When a group claims to need weapons to quell a threat to democracy, and then proceeds to ignore the threat when it arises, then they are hypocrites. Hope that helped understand the point - let me know if it did 👍
