Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. had his first of two hearings Wednesday on President Trump’s nomination to make him Secretary of Health and Human Services.  He appeared before the Senate Finance Committee today, Wednesday, and will appear tomorrow before the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions.

Big Pharma and the failing Public Health establishment, which controls a fifth of U.S. GDP presently, have launched a full scale smear and attack campaign against this nomination, for the obvious reason that RFK, Jr. and the burgeoning Make American Healthy Again movement which he leads, are singularly qualified to break the corrupt complex which is killing Americans.

It seems clear from Wednesday’s hearing that while RFK, Jr. was spectacular,  the bad guys might still win. The three traitorous Republican U.S. Senators, Murkowski, McConnell, and Collins, have been joined by Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana in probable opposition to Kennedy.  Senator Lindsey Graham is another question mark.

He can only afford to lose 3 Republican votes.

Louisiana residents and businesses and Cassidy’s donors need to make it clear that he must confirm RFK, Jr.  The same is true with South Carolina residents and Lindsey Graham. Members of MAHA and supporters of Donald Trump need to contact their Senators, Republicans and Democrats, and demand the same.  The number is 202-224-3121.

While he may pick up Democratic votes, they won’t come from the Senate Finance Committee Democrats based on their uniformly hysterical and banshee- like performance Wednesday.  After all, all of them and Senators Collins and Murkowski voted for the transgender admiral, Rachel Levine, to lead the Public Health Service under Biden.

A Sick Nation Which Kennedy Is Dedicated to Curing

In his opening statement Kennedy spelled out the healthcare crisis the nation now faces.

“Today, Americans’ health is in a grievous condition.  Over 70% of adults and a third of children are overweight and obese. Diabetes is ten times more prevalent than in 1960. Cancer among young people is rising by one or two percent a year.  Autoimmune diseases, neurodevelopmental disorders, asthma, Alzheimer’s, ADHD, depression, addiction, and a host of other physical and mental health conditions are on the rise. . .Today, over half of our countrymen and women are chronically ill .. the first thing I’ve done every morning in past 20 years is pray to God that He will put me in a position where I can end the chronic disease epidemic and bring health back to our children.” 

Otherwise, the story of this hearing is best told in clips from the hearing itself.

Here is the exchange between Senator Ron Johnson and RFK, Jr. discussing the ability of this issue, examined and solved, to unite the nation.

Here is Kennedy’s exchange with Nevada Senator Cortez-Maestro.

Here is Kennedy promising to prioritize finding the hundreds of thousands of missing children from Biden’s open border policies.

Here is Kennedy responding to the canard that he is an anti-science huckster and conspiracy theorist.

There’s a reason Democrats have been repeatedly cutting him off so he can’t give full answers. pic.twitter.com/TrLHsIpIqO

Senator Cassidy’s Sophistry

Despite Kennedy saying he did not particularly want to talk about money, Senator Cassidy set out to stump him about the intricacies and differences between Medicaid and Medicare.  According to the media after the hearing, this blizzard of bs successfully trapped Kennedy.  I didn’t think so but it surfaced Cassidy’s duplicity. Remember, he voted to impeach Trump for “insurrection” with respect to January 6, 2021. Most of his campaign contributions come from Big Pharma and healthcare organizations. The same is true of Elizabeth Warren, who made a fool of herself screaming at Kennedy today like a mad woman.  She has raked in $1.6 million from the same sources.

The mud hurled by the health industrial complex at this challenger to them reached absolutely despicable levels.  Caroline Kennedy, wedded to her Democratic Party sponsors, wrote a letter attacking her cousin as a charismatic predator capable of grinding up live animals in a blender. Former Vice President Mike Pence attacked Kennedy for his pro-choice positions, making lots of money for himself in the process.

Again, the number for the Senate is 202-224-3121.

RFK, Jr. is the one unique individual at this point in time, who could start this population on the road to health again.  President Trump saw this and, after watching this hearing, I too am absolutely convinced.
