    Since he went all in on antivax and conspiracy stuff, Dems have known he’s a weird/crazy dude. Which is a damn shame, as pre-brain worms, he was a kick-ass environmental lawyer. Dude is clearly not all there and hasn’t been for decades.

      He attended the vaccination safety events Robert De Niro… who the Biden campaign then enlisted. I’m not saying he’s right by any means. I think it is fine to question vaccine safety, especially when big pharma has so much influence in politics, but obviously he’s made statements that were far too extreme without supporting medical evidence.

      Regardless… Christians believing in make believe stuff that would normally be considered mental illness is as conspiracy-based to me as RFK Jr, so by all means if you think that saying crazy shit means you can never be an ally… then I guess you’ve never ran for state government.

          And it’s apparently ableism to say that the brain worms make him someone who maybe shouldn’t be listened to.

            He said his brainwork was affecting his ability to make money to pay his x wife alimony.

            I’d think that would make running the United States pretty difficult too, but maybe it’s easier than everyone thinks.

          Does that mean you’re pro-genocide? Why the hyperbole? Why so offended when someone speaks truth?
