Robert Kennedy Jr made a link between the Covid-19 vaccine and autism, positions himself in favor of abortion, had a heroin addiction, fights for the preservation of the environment and ensures that A worm ate part of his skull.
It’s difficult to pin down the personality of the person who should become Donald Trump’s next Minister of Health. Robert Kennedy Jr is the nephew of John Fitzgerald Kennedy (JFK), Democratic president assassinated in 1963. Aged 70, he is a lawyer specializing in the environment and has no scientific training. For Donald Trump, the department “will play a big role in ensuring that everyone is protected from the dangerous chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, pharmaceuticals and food additives that have contributed to the enormous health crisis in this country “, he insists on X.
I am delighted to announce Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as The United States Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). For too long, Americans have been crushed by the industrial food complex and drug companies who have engaged in disappointment, misinformation, and disinformation when it

An admitted conspirator
Robert Kennedy Jr made headlines during the Covid-19 pandemic. He first assured that this disease had been spread voluntarily from the city of Wuhan (China) in order to establish a sort of global totalitarianism, illustrated by the compulsory wearing of masks and compulsory vaccination, reports BFMTV. According to him, the Covid-19 vaccine is linked to cases of autism. He still assured that once at the Ministry of Health, he “would not take away anyone’s vaccines”, which is, in any case, technically impossible. Finally, he assured that Anne Frank was in a better situation when she and her family were hiding from the Nazis than the population forced to be vaccinated against Covid-19 in 2022. It is important to specify that he chairs an organization nonprofit that campaigns against vaccines, according to Free Midday.
As Minister of Health, Robert Kennedy Jr wants to recommend removing fluoride from running water. This measure, which is considered one of the ten greatest health successes of the 20th century by the CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention), would reduce the risk of cavities by more than 25% according to the association. American Dentists. But Robert Kennedy Jr assures that it causes cancer, which is false.
Robert Kennedy Jr saw his personal life marked by two tragedies: the assassination of his uncle, President Kennedy, in 1963, then that of his father, who was a Democratic senator and seeking the nomination, in 1968. According to him, these two assassinations were ordered by the CIA, reports Radio-Canada. This is also the reason why he withdrew his candidacy for the White House against Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, convinced that his security was worth it. He was credited with 5% of the voting intentions when he gave up in favor of Donald Trump, without the support of his family.
His fight against Monsanto
Robert Kennedy Jr is a respected environmental law attorney. He has led several battles, notably against the giant Monsanto and its herbicide Roundup. He is one of the lawyers for Dewayne Lee Johnson, a man who attacked Monsanto in 2018 for hiding the dangerous effects of glyphosate, which caused him to get cancer. He got $289 million from the firm.
His personal health problems
The next US health minister has health problems of his own. First of all, he is a former drug addict. Indeed, he claims to have wanted to “fill a void” with heroin, then still deeply affected by the assassination of his father and uncle. Then he would suffer from a neurological disease. Although we don’t know exactly what illness it is, we notice the consequences with his quavering voice.
Finally, he made several rather delusional statements. As reported by Radio-Canada, he said that a worm had “introduced itself into [son] brain and [avait] ate part” before dying in his skull. Robert Kennedy Jr also recounted, during the American campaign, having abandoned the corpse of a bear cub in Central Park, in New York.
His health struggles
With his blonde sidekick, the one nicknamed “Bobby” intends to promote the MAHA movement, “Make America Healthy Again”, modeled on MAGA, “Make America Great Again”. Contrary to a certain number of his proposals and declarations, the next Minister of Health expresses ideas that hold water. He talks in particular about the fight against obesity, particularly due to poor diet and fast food. Certain anti-diabetes medications could also see their prices decrease. He wants to “clean up public health agencies”, such as the CDC, in charge of health recommendations, the NIH, in charge of research, and the FDA, in charge of drugs.
If his positions on abortion have not always been the same, he is now campaigning for authorization of abortion until the fetus is viable, i.e. around 24 weeks. This is the limit set by Roe v. Wade for fifty years, before it was overturned by the Supreme Court, with a Republican majority, in 2022. Before that, he insisted that women should be able to have an abortion throughout their pregnancy, not having “trust in the government” to exercise power “over bodies”.
