Default Trump picks Anti-vaxxer to Chair committee on Vaccine Safety

So far he's got an climate-change denialist, a creationist, and an anti-vaxxer. All he needs is an anti-GMO guy and he's got the complete collection.

That truly sucks.

I also loathe Sessions as the AG pick.

What a freaking circus. None of this should be at all surprising unfortunately. Hasn't even officially started and I'm already wondering if he even makes it through 4 years.

It hasn't really yet since the election. I hope the GOP congress has the courage to stand up to the clown in the oval office.
