So basically the point of RFK Jr’s video was to promote improved health outcomes by encouraging men to ride a stationary bike in a sauna shirtless in jeans while your male friend does pushups next to you in shorts before you jump into a hot tub together?

Didn’t they dissolve the Dept of Education?

JUST IN: Judge Provinzino in Minnesota has held a Justice Department attorney in civil contempt for violations of her order requiring the return of a released ICE detainee’s ID documents. He must pay $500 a day until the documents are returned.
