US health secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr, , who once likened gender-affirming care to 'mutilation,' is currently undergoing... gender-affirming care. The 71-year-old Republican is reportedly taking hormone replacement therapy medication despite his repeated criticism of the medical treatment, which is an often life-saving way to affirm trans people's gender identity. Since becoming US health secretary in February, Kennedy has falsely framed gender-affirming care as a form of "chemical and surgical mutilation" while enacting policies pressuring major healthcare providers to cease trans healthcare services.

The good news for Trump is that his administration has a new sex scandal that for once has nothing to do with him, said Kimmel during his monologue on Jimmy Kimmel Live. After explaining Kennedy's alleged digital affair with Nuzzi, which was further detailed by Nuzzi's ex-fiance Ryan Lizza in an article last week, Kimmel then proceeded to read out several of the poems Kennedy allegedly sent Nuzzi while she was engaged.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. somehow knew, even as a little boy, that fate can lead a person to terrible places. "I always had the feeling that we were all involved in some great crusade," Kennedy once wrote, "that the world was a battleground for good and evil, and that our lives would be consumed in that conflict." He was 9 years old when his uncle was assassinated and 14 when his father suffered the same fate.

First was a copy of the book We're Not Broken: Changing the Autism Conversation. In response to Kennedy's scientifically-unsupported claims that autism is a preventable disease caused by "environmental toxins"- including Tylenol -the Paynes displayed six copies in their window, along with a sign announcing a live book signing by author Eric Garcia. "Twenty people showed up," says Jim, not without pride.

"Of all the specific initiatives that you guys have worked on effectively, the most important thing is that your team is willing to ask questions that people in government haven't been asking in a long time,"

Bill Gates played a key role in keeping Robert F. Kennedy, Jr out of President Donald Trump's first administration, a new book says. When Kennedy met with the president-elect at Trump Tower in early 2017, he told reporters afterward that Trump had asked him to chair a "commission on vaccine safety and scientific integrity." Spokespeople for Trump later put out a statement saying that no decision had been made, and Kennedy ultimately never joined his first administration.

Robert F Kennedy Jr is the father of six children. He's also the US health secretary. Two facts that might lead a reasonable person to assume he possesses a basic understanding of how foetuses develop. In a shocking development, however, it seems that Kennedy an anti-vaxxer who says his brain was partly eaten by a parasitic worm may not know what he's talking about.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. drew criticism Thursday after suggesting his department is working to "make the proof" linking Tylenol use during pregnancy to autism.

Before this year, U.S. health officials following recommendations by infectious disease experts recommended annual COVID-19 boosters for all Americans ages 6 months and older. The idea was to update protection against the coronavirus as it continues to evolve. As the COVID-19 pandemic waned, experts increasingly discussed the possibility of focusing vaccination efforts on people 65 and older who are among those most at risk for death and hospitalization.

Amid a flurry of disinformation and non-science-based medical advisories from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), a Democratic lawmaker has indicated she is readying articles of impeachment against HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Kennedy has peddled myriad falsehoods about vaccination over the years, including errant statements regarding their efficacy and safety and wrongly claiming that vaccines are linked to autism.

According to the poll, just 42% of adults approved of Kennedy's performance compared to 55% who disapprove. Among registered voters, the gap widens slightly to 42 and 57, respectively. Predictably, those numbers saw extreme variations among party lines. Among Democrats, just 13% approved compared to a staggering 86% who disapproved. Of the 86% who disapproved, 71% said they strongly disapproved of Kennedy's job thus far.

In mid-February, on the day that the Senate confirmed Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., as Secretary of Health and Human Services, Del Bigtree, an anti-vaccine activist who had served as the communications director of Kennedy's Presidential campaign, hosted an event at the National Press Club, in Washington, D.C. Bigtree was now the C.E.O. of the advocacy group MAHA Action, and the National Press Club event, where members of the media gathered in a modest room with a small stage, was a celebration of sorts.

After I told him I worked for the local congressman, Austin Murphy, he called me "Austin's boy," and that earned me a few freebies of his famously potent drinks. His "frog" voice was legendary, and it came, I assume, from cigarettes, and while it may have been rough around the edges, it was attached to a benevolent, gregarious man. Froggy died way too young, at 62, of emphysema.

Senator Bill Cassidy (R-LA), Senator John Barrasso (R-WY), Senator John Kennedy (R-LA), Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC), all Republicans who voted to confirm [Kennedy], are saying we are denying people vaccines, said Tarlov. Watters then asked, What vaccines has he denied someone? Tarlov cited conservative radio personality Erick Erickson's wife, who was recently denied the Covid-19 vaccine under RFK's policies, before asking Watters, Why don't you ever prepare?!

In the combative three-hour hearing, Kennedy defended his dramatic firing of the CDC director last week, less than a month after her confirmation, which he effusively supported. Today, he repeatedly called her a liar and made the extraordinary claim that she openly confessed to him that she cannot be trusted. Kennedy went on to reiterate the dangerous claim that the CDC is corrupt.

Kennedy noted accurately that America is home to 4.2% of the world's population and had 20% of its covid deaths, without reference to rampant misinformation leading to public resistance to vaccine use that was not present elsewhere. We literally did worse than any country in the world, and the people at CDC who oversaw that process, who put masks on our children, who closed our schools, are the people who will be leaving.

In the past week, however, the efforts escalated: Kennedy, who rose to fame in part owing to his conspiracy theories about vaccinations, pushed to fire Susan Monarez, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which is part of H.H.S. This came after Monarez refused to follow the lead of Kennedy's advisers, who have tried to restrict vaccine access.
