KNOWLEDGE: Our health and future is in the hands of a dangerous and deceitful conspiracy theorist
Our health and future is in the hands of a dangerous and deceitful conspiracy theorist
Rick Wilson put RFK Jr's lunacy into stark terms in his Substack post...
"RFJ, Jr Is A Serial Killer
And the death toll will be unimaginable"
https://therickwilson.substack.com/p/rfj-jr-is-a-serial-killer
Some call RFK. Jr a serial killer
"Call [August 27th, 2025] Black Wednesday for American health."
"RFK, Jr., heroin addict, sex addict, anti-vaccination lunatic and aspiring architect of millions of deaths purged the CDC last night. He gutted the world’s premiere public-health agency in his endless quest to destroy vaccine science and plunge this nation into the Middle Ages."
ACTION: PLEASE Call your senators and protest that they voted to confirm him. Then insist on an investigation of Kennedy and an ouster. Kennedy is dismantling our health system.

Remember the pandemic. This artist visualized the tolls when there were 0.6 Million dead.
The total DEAD in USA stands at ~1.2 million form COVID pandemic.
Future pandemics could be much worse and Kennedy has been allowed to dismantle our safety net by MAGA and GOP in Congress.

A deadline with teeth in gerrymandering ruling
Having covered Utah politics for more than a quarter century, I’m usually as confident as Macbeth that Birnam Wood won’t budge—until once in a while, the trees move and I have to rewrite the act.
What I did not anticipate was the extremely clever maneuver by Judge Dianna Gibson that could keep the legislature from dodging new maps.
In her ruling, Gibson gave lawmakers until Sept. 24 to draw new congressional maps that follow Proposition 4’s guardrails: no use of partisan data and no splitting municipalities and counties when it can be avoided.
That's just 29 days from now, which is a very aggressive timeline. But it’s aggressive for a reason. During litigation, the lieutenant governor’s office argued that any new maps must be in place by early November for logistical reasons and so candidates can prepare their campaigns.
Here's the clever part.
If the GOP-controlled legislature balks or submits maps that flout Prop. 4, the court takes over. In that case, the plaintiffs or a third party can submit map proposals, and the court will implement one. That renders moot any attempt to “run out the clock.”
Lawmakers still have the right to appeal Gibson's ruling. However, now there's a legitimate question about which maps will govern the 2026 midterms while those appeals unfold. Unless they secure a stay that blocks Gibson’s order, those new court-compliant boundaries are likely to be in place for the midterms.
Yesterday I argued that time was on the legislature's side. If lawmakers could delay until December, they could keep the current lines in place.
Gibson's ruling flips that scenario on its head, turning delay tactics from an asset into a liability.
Time used to be the legislature’s ally. Judge Gibson just turned it into a referee.
