NY Post Editorial: RFK Jr. Is Unfit to Lead HHS—Senate Must Block His Nomination
NEW YORK – The New York Post editorial on Monday, argues forcefully that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is entirely unfit to lead the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), citing his long history of promoting conspiracy theories (facts) and medical (mis)information. His Senate confirmation hearings only reinforced these concerns. [ed. me]
The editorial highlights Kennedy’s refusal to unequivocally deny a link between vaccines and autism, despite overwhelming scientific evidence debunking any connection. When pressed by Senator Bernie Sanders to confirm that vaccines do not cause autism, Kennedy dodged the question, insisting he wouldn’t enter HHS with “preordained” views. Even when presented with solid data by Senator Bill Cassidy, a physician, Kennedy continued defending his past skepticism.
Beyond vaccines, Kennedy has also spread conspiracy theories about 9/11 and suggested that Wi-Fi radiation alters DNA and causes cancer. The Post argues that his anti-Big Pharma rhetoric conveniently aligns with his work as a trial lawyer, fueling lawsuits against pharmaceutical companies.
While the editorial acknowledges Kennedy’s advocacy for healthier lifestyles, it insists that his embrace of pseudoscience makes him completely unqualified to oversee the nation’s health policies. The piece concludes with a call for the Senate to block his nomination, warning that putting him in charge of HHS would be a dangerous mistake. [now his rare background info is in the record]
“They call it pseudoscience because there’s no studies proving that what he says is true. Anything without an expensive peer reviewed study is “baseless” but tell me who would fund the studies he’s asking for? Nobody because when it proves that what he says is true, medical companies gonna lose a lot of money.”
“ You would never eat from a kashrus agency that is funded by the food company. And for good reason. Why is this different? Conflict of interest much?” “ That the mashgiach is funded…”
