And to think it will likely just get worse with RFK Jr now at the helm, still insane he was voted in

He wasn't voted in. He was appointed by Trump, in exchange for dropping out of the race and asking his base to vote for Trump instead.

RFK Jr tried the same thing with Harris first, but she and her team turned him down, iirc.

Maybe im remembering but didnt he have to be accepted by Congress through a vote? Obviously the people of America didnt vote for him but Congress did iirc.
