Summary

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. accused Bernie Sanders of taking millions from Big Pharma during a heated exchange, but Sanders refuted the claim, stating his donations came from workers, not corporate PACs.

Kennedy repeatedly insisted Sanders was the top recipient of pharmaceutical money in 2020, but financial data shows no corporate PAC contributions to Sanders.

Meanwhile, Kennedy has profited from anti-vaccine activism, earning millions from lawsuits and speaking fees.

The debate ended without Kennedy answering whether he would guarantee health care for all as HHS secretary.

    Must be an interesting corner of Lemmy you found to have seen people who had enthusiasm for Kamala.

    Most here we’re as enthused as a kid taking that old school bitter liquid antibiotic.

      enthusiasm for Kamala

      For me its more like: Magats hate Black Women, so having a Black Woman as president is gonna piss them off so much. (I mean, there are other PoC Women that are much better in terms of policies, but still… love Maga tears)

      Okay, maybe not outright enthusiasm. More like relief in the hope we weren’t getting Trump.
