The enthusiastic gloating over a the loss of a candidate whose entire campaign was simply to clean up his hometown is one the most disgusting displays of arrogance and ugliness I’ve ever seen in my life.

This is nothing short of political bullying. It’s abhorrent and it is increasingly why the ideal of American politics being of the people and for the people is being supplanted by professional grifters and communist activists.

Absolutely disgusted.

[Secretary Kennedy @SecKennedy]

Sheryl. Your article exemplifies the biased reporting we have come to expect from you and @nytimes. It was unfair, inimical, and inaccurate. All one needs to refute your argument is to glance at my publicly available calendar and to review my unprecedented list of accomplishments on a wide range of issues, all of which I drove. You evidently never undertook these foundational due diligences. Why let facts obscure a good story?

You fault me for missing a couple of monthly counselor meetings. However, I meet one-on-one with my counselors every day to decide policy and strategy. We schedule the monthly meetings to give the divisions a chance to keep each other informed about HHS-wide policies with which I’m already intimately familiar. Had you read my calendar, you would have seen that I have back-to-back meetings all day, every day, with both career and political staff, with my counselors and with outside stakeholders, interspersed with press conferences and other policy announcements.

I am knowledgeable and active on every issue in every division of my department, and I always make the final decisions. I meet with the principals at FDA, NIH, CDC, and my senior counselor every morning, something, I’m told, is unprecedented in HHS history. I try to get out of the office between 4:30 and 6:00 PM, so that I can spend three hours, in quiet, responding to emails. I normally work until 11 PM every night, mostly on phone calls to staff.

In order to prove your preconceived case for my disengagement, you quote anonymous employees, some of whom I fired or who quit to avoid being fired. You also deceptively quote HHS employees without identifying whether they were among those I fired, thereby depriving your readers of the opportunity to make an independent judgment about their credibility.

I came into this job to change the culture of a broken agency that has presided over the worst decline in public health in American history. Of course I fired people—lots of them! It's an easy task for even the laziest journalist, to comb that flotsam and jetsam for malevolence toward the Trump administration. And of course, this species of journalist will always be able to find disgruntled individuals among the 70,000 employees of the Department from whom to cherry pick "facts" to flesh out a preordained hit piece. All that is required for this brand of journalism is the ethical elasticity that you seem to have in spades. You had a preconceived thesis, and you set out to prove it. This is a widely accepted technique in journalism today, but I grew up in an era when it would not have been tolerated by the New York Times.

Ultimately, God puts us all on this earth to search for existential truths. I've tried to instill this mission at HHS by implementing gold standard research to end the regime of politicized science that COVID exposed to the American public. There was a time that journalists were proud to be the fearless and uncompromising champions of truth. Standards have devolved, and journalism is dead. The Times now employs propagandists. Your capitulation to partisanship further compounds your journalistic challenges; since we all are aware of your predictable bias, we at HHS are unwilling to talk to you about the topics that are important. The fact that you have minimal access to decision makers leaves you covering trivia and relying on your own capacity for invention.

Btw. When I took this job, the building was empty. About 90% of the employees were not coming to work. I changed that, but your newspaper never covers my reforms. Nor did you cover the fact that my predecessor almost never showed up for work here during his four years in office. When we came in, there were still artifacts from the first Trump administration in many of our office drawers because no one showed up for work during the Biden years. Just as Rochelle Walensky spent her entire term as CDC Director in Cambridge, Xavier Becerra reportedly spent most of his term as HHS Secretary in California. (I live in California, but I’ve only been there once in fifteen months).

His only notable accomplishments here were losing 300,000 children, referred to HHS for custody and care, to human traffickers and drug runners, encouraging transgender surgeries, and disabling the entire program-integrity apparatus, allowing hundreds of billions of dollars of theft from my agency. I have set out to find the children Becerra lost. He is now the front-runner for the governor of California. These are not invented stories; they are genuine scandals that the Times will never cover, presumably, because the malefactors are Democrats.

Finally, you criticize me for spending time with the Indian tribes in Alaska. I consider that part of my job. I run the Indian Health Services, and I’ve had unprecedented success in transforming IHS from a backwater to a top priority for this department. I’ve made more trips to Indian country and to Indian health clinics and hospitals than any HHS secretary in history, and I’ve brought Indians into high positions on the sixth floor for the first time in agency history. This is another success story that the Times will never cover.

Murderous migrants beheading innocent people in their home town is what’s making people angry, not “social media”!

[Matt Taibbi @mtaibbi]

People acting like we didn’t institute radical changes to elections in 2020-2022 - it’s infuriating.

@topjibrone @LttleGel @big_business_ @stephenasmith Why are Canadians so obsessed with America? It’s so weird! We don’t even think about you guys or your President. The majority of the time that I see a psychotic angry tweet, it’s by a Canadian! Hahaha the obsession is insane. Nobody cares about Canada

@BearFanDown @DezBryant Lmao you could make the same meme with the dog having CNN, MSNBC, and every other media outlet. Since they all spew liberal propaganda.

[. @robbyr562]

@SaranWrapCubed @BreidenFehoko “One side advocates for social programs” “while the other cuts taxes for billionaires” It’s so funny that you don’t realize the left does the same thing. The left is full of theater people wanting to continue lying and pretending to help you guys so you continue voting for them.

[. @robbyr562]

@BreidenFehoko They cuss out anyone they believe should be in their party. They constantly make up nonsense… like the right are racists, anti-trans, homophobes, etc etc etc and then when there’s a black person or a Hispanic person or a gay person who voted the other way, they demonize them!

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

The reason ID is banned in California (and New York) elections is to enable large-scale fraud.

When you combine no ID and mail-in voting, fraud is de facto legalized.

[Mr Producer @RichSementa]

Even Bill Maher admits California is completely FKED UP:

"In 39 days we will know the winner. Oh no, that's the mayor of LA.... What a fu*ked-up state this is... Eric Swalwell got 19,000 votes. Who are these people?"

California is a national joke.

[Alps @alpaysh]

i still think about this

[Matt Taibbi @mtaibbi]

America routinely taking days/weeks to count ballots now is f’n hilarious. They might as well announce results in Hamburglar costumes

[Nate Silver @NateSilver538]

Like honestly "it's going to take us several weeks to tell you who won the election" is failed state shit and should be much more stigmatized.

[Nate Silver @NateSilver538]

The fact that California elections often can't be resolved for weeks is kind of insane and not common in other electoral systems around the world.

Things you can do as an athlete:

- beat your wife
- abuse your kids
- run from the cops
- do insane amounts of drugs
- go to strip clubs
- bet on games

Things you can’t do as an athlete:

- Support the current President

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Both men said “I can’t breathe”, but only one man’s death was covered relentlessly by the media.

The only conclusion that can be drawn is that the legacy mainstream media is incredibly, hatefully racist against Whites.

[. @robbyr562]

@BreidenFehoko It’s so embarrassing and pathetic that reporters are asking “Did Jaxson say sorry to you?” HAHAHAHA holy sh*t. Because he introduced the President, whom the Country voted fairly on. Beyond pathetic

[Brilyn Hollyhand @BrilynHollyhand]

President Trump hits the nail on the head: "You come from hellhole countries, and all you do is complain and play the victim—America doesn't need people like that. If you're unhappy, get the hell back to your own country and fix it yourselves."
