My husband has had various skin cancers since he was 23 and he is 73 now. Every 4-6 months he is at the dermatologist and comes home with spots removed everywhere. Sometimes he has much more extensive cancerous sites and has had surgery and radiation. No one in our families ever intentionally lays out in the sun and certainly never goes to a tanning salon. Once again, Congress has abdicated its responsibilities to ensure that critical appointments are given to qualified individuals. We are a very sad nation now. And like all appointments made by the Orange Menace, they all tie back to money. Every single time.
Kennedy, Jr. has shown no real interest in monitoring industry. Follow the money, just like most cabinet members and congressmen. Whose legislature leaves their Capital city during an illegal war with no plan. Who vacations in March and April.They’re at home when the President is contemplating sending American troops into a bloodbath. Meanwhile, Kennedy wages war on the nation’s health, ignoring science. In congressional hearings he looks like a deer in the headlights. He ignores the advice of physicians and has no medical training and no real scientific background. My father was on liberty from the USS Ranger and fell asleep on Waikiki beach in Hawaii. He spent 2 weeks in sickbay. He died from lung cancer at 52 because he ignored another warning and smoked all his life. At least there is public knowledge about the risks and fewer people are smoking. He’s not making America healthy again; MAHA was a ruse.
There is a strong possibility that RFK Jr is on the special peptide(s)+ uV recipe for skin color and cancer. “Melanotan (I and II) are synthetic tanning peptides that stimulate melanin production for a tan. They are largely unregulated, frequently sold online, and administered via injection or nasal spray, often accompanied by UV light exposure. Due to serious risks—including potential melanoma development, nausea, and increased moles—experts warn against their use…”
Between the words ‘crispy orange-toned skin in the game’ and that picture, I laughed so hard, I inhaled my drink and nearly choked to death. I am okay now, but If I had died, who would be responsible? Johnathon for his reporting on an idiot, Hannah for her excellent depiction of an idiot or RFK JR for being that idiot?
Thanks for the clarification of blame, and seriously, for your reporting on this. I know It’s no laughing matter. Thankfully, my blue eyed, redheaded sister caught her skin cancer early. Too many sun burns on a Lake Michigan beach as a kid in the 60s and using Coppertone tanning oil as a teen in the 70s. Back then, who knew?
We had a saying where I grew up, fits rfkJr - "that boy just ain't right." He looks like a guy in a Tales from the Crypt comic, who eventually meets up with a big crowd of all the people who suffered & died from his twisted ideas
i wonder how many deaths RFK Jr is going to be responsible when all is said and done - the vaccine fiasco, this, and how many other things based on his science-free conclusions.
These regime people are selling fake childhood; a fantasy world of no responsibility, no consequences and nobody saying "no." This is just another piece of the same ugly puzzle.
I think Pickled Pete should be the next to go, from a lethality standpoint!! Pickled Pete could be responsible for MORE DEATHS FASTER than RFK, Jr., so him first, with RFK, Jr. A close second, who would be in 3rd??? Thoughts???
I've never used a tanning bed, but I definitely fell for the line that a tan is required to be attractive. In my teens and 20's I spent time in the sun all summer. I remember telling someone that my aim was to be tan as a pecan. I'm lucky that, at least so far, I've only had one small skin cancer.
JFK (RFK Jr.'s uncle) looked tan because he had Addison's disease, which causes increased melanin production. Addison's is not normally hereditary, and it doesn't make the skin leathery like RFK Jr.'s. He's either baking in the sun or using tanning beds.
Oh, these people think sunscreen is what causes cancer rather than ultraviolet radiation. And even if one has concerns about oxybenzone sunscreens (I think there are some legitimate concerns about coral reef damage, not that MAGA would care), sunscreens with zinc oxide and titanium dioxide as the active ingredients are very easy to find. They even come with tinted versions now, like makeup, in several skin tones, so they don't leave a white cast. And as for the "war on sunlight," there's no reason for humans to have to get all of our vitamin D from sun exposure. Absolutely we should go outside sometimes and "touch grass," but we don't need to do it unprotected. Brainworm's favorite thing, supplements, work just fine as long as you get regular blood work to ensure you aren't ODing on vitamin D. This is a case where supplements actually serve a legitimate purpose, and it's the one time he seems to be against them, because he favors something that causes harm instead. Go figure.
Also, UVA rays aren't just a cancer risk. They prematurely age you. All these young women cooking themselves in tanning beds now are going to regret it when their skin looks 75 at age 40. On that note, I will never understand why anyone would consider as a "health guru" someone who looks like Jabba the Hutt.

As someone with a family history of skin cancer (father & sibling), this makes my blood boil.
Don’t even get me started on those promoting that sunscreen is bad for you.
Dude's a freak. And a danger. And needs to be impeached and run out of town.

Whenever I see a picture of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. I think of the old PSA:
“This is your brain. This is your brain on drugs”. The man is a menace.

Glad you’re ok!
And if it was the headline, then credit — er, blame — goes with my editors 😊

I couldn’t care less about the health of RFK, Jr. I care about the health of Americans, which the Republican Party doesn’t.

Trump is Jabba the Hut, RFK JR is, as was said, turkey jerky, all the words apply!
