Robert F. Kennedy Jr. literally used tax payer dollars to film a shirtless, milk-chugging hot-tub video with Kid Rock instead of using his position to promote real, evidence-based health measures like vaccines and preventative care.
This is MAGA ‘bro culture’ as public policy: performative stunts.

Over the past 20 years, Seattle lost the Sonics thanks to the stewardship of Howard Schultz, saw dozens of stores close while the company engaged in apparent union-busting, and steadily reduced its local headcount.
