Trump's new frenemies, WH Press Sec Karoline Leavitt, confirmation for RFK, Jr. and thoughts on healthcare

Today we open with a piece from Victor Davis Hanson regarding President Trump’s speech to the WEF in Davos. The idea of creating a “golden age” for the United States has our European allies realizing it also means a golden age for them.

The new White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt had a phenomenal first outing at the lectern. She opened with a statement about the drones, addressed the pause in some spending, provided examples of wasteful spending that was prevented and addressed the deportation operation taking place in the United States. She also revealed the press briefing room was going to be expanded to allow New Media access to the White House. Fox News Senior White House correspondent Jacqui Heinrich gave Leavitt top marks for her preparedness, her knowledge and the fact that she didn’t need a massive binder or crib notes.

We then spend the rest of the show dealing with the RFK, Jr. confirmation hearing for HHS Secretary. Once again, the Left have no interest in really vetting the candidate. They are only there to get social media sound bites to use to vilify the candidate and, by way of extension, the President.

Since we are talking about the chronic disease epidemic, I provide some additional rabbit trails as it relates to healthcare versus health cost. While I know RFK, Jr.’s positions in the past (and still today) on some subjects are radical and activist in nature, I think we owe Trump the benefit of the doubt that he knows this nomination is what America needs. He isn’t putting RFK, Jr. in charge of energy or the environment. And, I think he will be keeping close tabs to make sure the agenda of making American healthy again is all he is focused on accomplishing.

In the end, we have to come to terms that the status quo isn’t working and hasn’t been for a long time. To cling to it versus trying something new, simply due to fear, is a perfect illustration of Einstein’s definition of insanity.
