Although Means graduated from Stanford School of Medicine, she did not complete her head and neck surgical residency at Oregon Health and Science University, is not board-certified, and does not have an active medical license. Her scientific experience is mainly focused around her work as a wellness influencer, and a leader within the Make America Healthy Again (Maha) space – which has become the key pillar of the Trump administration’s health policy under Robert F Kennedy Jr.
Means declined to give a simple yes-or-no answer when the committee chair, Republican senator Bill Cassidy, pressed her on whether, as surgeon general, she would encourage parents to vaccinate their children with routine shots such as the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine.

This is a huge red flag. She fucked up and killed someone in residency.
Being picked by Trump at all is a red flag
Less of a grilling and more of a light seasoning.
It’s fuckin RAW
Would it kill him to pick an actual, i dunno…DOCTOR?
a what?
edit aren’t those people the people who’s job it is to fake things?
Don’t worry, Maine’s senator will look grumpy and then vote yes, fucking over millions of people and destroying our healthcare system (even more). But Maine will re-elect their Senator anyway because… They love sending their best, I guess?
Maine loves to be moderate about their sanity and empathy, Susan Collins is no exception!
Graham Platner gives me some hope though.

did you see the last clown they appointed?
Another highly qualified individual. At least this one has a degree in the field.
Going through med school but then not completing residency or boards screams silver spoon… I’ve seen a lot of idiots get through school and come out idiots on the other side.
