The senate confirmation hearings into Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (D) to be our next Health and Human Services (HHS) Director got tense this week. Kennedy, a lifelong Democrat who recently flipped for Trump. Trump promised RFK Jr. he would appoint him to be his HHS Director to Make America Healthy Again (MAHA). This week he has gotten verbally ripped by those of his own former party as well as family. This not only infuriated MAGA (Trump) Americans but also many life-long Democrat voters as well. What was most interesting, to me, was this came on the heels of an article I just wrote.
“Democrats are Digging Their Own Hole” – The Thinking Conservative
The outrage and anger directed at some of RFK Jr.’s worst attackers began in real-time on social media platforms when people in the know revealed some of these rabid attackers are the same ones in bed with Big Pharma to the tune of millions of dollars. This made sense since it seemed like his attackers were obsessed by his stance on vaccines.

Another hot button issue between this handful of Democrats and Republicans grilling “Bobby” mercilessly was the fact that these same Senators approved of the Joe Biden trans-woman Richard Leland Levine as a highly qualified candidate for this same office!
There was also some very interesting behind the scenes banter occurring relative to RFK Jr.’s appointment this week.
First, we had Cousin Caroline Kennedy come out and attack RFK Jr. publicly in an embarrassing (for her, not him) video.
“Caroline Kennedy attacks ‘predator’ RFK Jr. in scathing letter ahead of confirmation hearing” – New York Post
Then we had former RFK Jr.’s vice presidential running mate against Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, Billionaire Nicole Shanahan, vow to fund primary challengers of 13 specific U.S. Senators who don’t support RFK Jr’s confirmation and called them out by name.
“I will make it my personal mission that you lose your seats in the Senate if you vote against the future health of America’s children.
To senators Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins, Bill Cassidy, Thom Tillis, James Lankford, Cory Booker, John Fetterman, Bernie Sanders, and Catherine Cortez Masto…
This is a bipartisan message and it comes directly from me. While Bobby may be willing to play nice, I won’t if you vote against him.
I will personally fund challengers to primary you in your next election, and I will enlist hundreds of thousands to join me.”
As the old adage goes, “You can pick your nose but you can’t pick your relatives.”
For Bobby Kennedy Jr. he might well be saying, “You can pick your political running mates but you can’t pick your relatives.”
Two other old adages instantly came to mind after these two women presented themselves:
- “Blood is thicker than water.” An old English proverb meaning family bonds are more important than other relationships. Caroline violated that.
- “Money talks and bullsh*t walks!” Caroline Kennedy has an estimated net worth of around $100M while Nicole Shanahan is worth around $1B.
When Shanahan threatens 13 specific Senators she is going to make it rain for them in their next election, they would do well to heed her warning. But one of the ways we are all equal is by our American right to vote with ballots cast. This factor is looking particularly bad for the Democrats in particular.
One poster on social media by the name of Toby Rogers posted:
“I’m a LIFELONG straight party ticket Democrat. And after watching this hearing today I can never vote for any of them ever again. I’m appalled and disgusted by what this Party has become.”
CONCLUSION:
The only thing worthwhile to ever come out of COVID-19 Pandemic Response Team Leader’s Dr. Anthony Fauci’s mouth was when he told us all, “We must follow the science.” These words are a truism which means they are not open for debate.
RFK Jr. has followed the science for many years and has called out Anthony Fauci for who he really is in a best-selling book he wrote, “The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health”. The reason why this book is so good is it is truthful. As RFK Jr. wrote it, he followed the truth and not the mockingbird narrative.
RFK Jr. stores a treasure trove of information in his own mind and often in public speaking factoids about American’s health comes out:
- The rate of autism is at an all-time high and going up.
- Obesity is at an all-time high and going up.
- Depression is at an all-time high and going up.
- Diabetes and pre-diabetes is at an all-time high and going up.
- Heart disease is now the number one killer of Americans and going up.
I have a very personal reason I want to see RFK Jr. confirmed. It has to do with the use of red dyes.
From Google AI today:
“Red dye #2, also known as amaranth, is a red food dye that was commonly used in foods and cosmetics until the 1970s. It was removed from the market after Soviet scientists found it had a link to cancer.”
From NBC News last month:
Whether you like RFK Jr. or not, whether you have Big Pharma money in your back pocket or not, this man is working to protect all Americans. The Democrats roasting him in these hearings should be ashamed of themselves for their conduct related to this American hero!
RFK Jr. knows what it means to “follow the science”. When people like Anthony Fauci and his career Democrat shills change what the definition of the word “vaccine” as well as the term “safe and effective”, we know they are not interested in following the science!
