      Ted Cruz Retweeted Kevin M. Kruse

      No, sadly, you’re a Lefty pundit. As a Princeton prof, you should be honest in what you say. Trump’s 1st HHS Sec was a medical doctor. His second was a lawyer...who had worked 5 yrs at HHS & who was US president of Eli Lilly. Will you admit Bacerra has no healthcare experience?https://twitter.com/KevinMKruse/status/1364913323884568583 …

      I *am* just a history professor! But maybe I can help you out here by informing you that almost none of the HHS/HEW secretaries in US history have been scientists or doctors. That includes the last one you happily voted to confirm. He was a lawyer. https://twitter.com/tedcruz/status/1364805629857120258 …

      It is true that Trump's first @HHSGov Secretary was a physician, but he was a doc who belonged to the medical society equivalent of the John Birch Society, @AAPSonline. It's a crank doctors' org that promotes antivaccine and other conspiracy theories.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2016/11/30/the-new-secretary-of-health-and-human-services-is-a-member-of-a-fringe-medical-organization-heres-what-that-means/ …

      Here's an example of the sort of loony antivax disinformation that @AAPSonline was promoting when Dr. Price was being considered for HHS Secretary.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2016/12/22/the-crank-medical-organization-to-which-hhs-nominee-dr-tom-price-belongs-lays-down-a-heaping-helping-of-antivaccine-pseudoscience/ …

      It's an organization that, four years later, was suing for its "right" to spread antivaccine misinformation.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/02/07/aaps-sues/ …

          More recently, @AAPSonline predictably pivoted to spreading #COVID19 misinformation and pseudoscience.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/07/22/aaps-crank-medical-association-promotes-covid-19-disinformation/ …

          So, yes, Sen. Cruz, it is true that President Trump's first nominee for @HHSGov was a doctor, I'm not sure he's the example of the sort of doctor anyone wants in charge of HHS. @KevinMKruse has much more of a point than you do, you arrogant gaslighting fool.
