Donald Trump has selected Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a former Democrat and vocal health advocate, as Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS).
Kennedy, who endorsed Trump in August, vowed to “make America healthy again” and tackle public health challenges like harmful chemicals, pollutants, and corporate control over food and drug industries.
Trump announced the nomination on social media, stating that HHS, under Kennedy’s leadership, will work to safeguard Americans from the “industrial food complex and drug companies” that have contributed to a “health crisis” in the United States.
If confirmed, Kennedy will oversee key agencies, including the CDC, FDA, and NIH. Known for his skepticism towards vaccines and support for organic agriculture, Kennedy has committed to immediate action on issues such as removing processed foods from school lunches, recommending fluoride removal from the water supply, and regulating pesticide use in farming.
This move aligns with Kennedy’s long-standing criticisms of government health institutions and his broader health agenda. Kennedy, who initially launched an independent presidential campaign against Biden before endorsing Trump, has argued that his policies will combat the “chronic disease epidemic” affecting American youth and reinvigorate American public health practices.

Wouldn’t it be good if our government was like this.
Has anyone noticed CNN’s view on Robert F. Kennedy’s appointment to the department of health and human services?
CNN say the appointment can be best explained by a former president grinding as against agencies and institutions. Saying, despite his stances on vaccines that contradict the science-based research of most scientists and medical experts, is likely to ignite a new debate about the potential real-world implications of the second Trump term that will begin in January.
‘An extraordinarily bad choice’. Kennedy does have some views that would find favour in the medical establishment, especially concerning his efforts to address unhealthy diets in the US that cause chronic and non-communicable diseases that could mostly be prevented. He has said he’d “immediately” begin studying vaccine safety and efficacy but promised not to “take vaccines away from anybody.”
CNN – Complete Nonsense Network.
Who own CNN ??
TVNZ3 are very upset, apparently he’s an antivaxer, forewarning the obedient population to put their fingers in their ears whenever Kennedy spills the beans about he whole Covid debarcle. I think some will be doing more than blushing when the truth comes out. Shame we can not hear it from our own health minister.
There’s only one good Kennedy
