RFK Jr doesn't care who he tramples in in his anti-vax Qrusade.😡

I got a WTF emoji for the above so I'll explain. It's a reference to Chappaquidick, where Mary Jo Kopechne died due to Ted Kennedy's negligence. A humor magazine of the time, National Lampoon made the fake ad above. Robert Kennedy isn't the first to soil the family name.

Yes, I'm well acquainted with Chappaquidick, tyvm. The context of where the ad came from, however, wasn't at all clear in the posting. My WTF was directed at the source, not the incident. That it came from National Lampoon explains a lot. No one ever accused them of good taste. As burns go, this is definitely 3rd degree.

Not sure I can fully explain why, but suddenly I feel the need for a burnt waffle reaction.

Hiring diversity is racism!
"I can't be the only person who is seeing this," Harris Faulkner says.
Aside from the other swamp dwellers at Faux, yeah, he is.
It's life they can't conceive of any other qualified, capable, women of color besides the few they know the names of. 🙄
