FULL: RFK Jr. Senate confirmation hearing

RFK Senate confirmation hearing LIVE: Today the Senate will hold a hearing to consider the nomination of Robert F Kennedy Jr., of California, to be Secretary of Health and Human Services.

RFK Jr. (son of Robert F Kennedy who was assassinated in 1968 while running for president) has made headlines with controversial stances on vaccines and other health opinions seen in contrast to "Big Pharma" and the medical and scientific establishment.

RFK Jr. has been a Democratic for most of his career, but switched to being more conservative and Republican minded in recent years. He entered into the 2024 presidential race, being on several states ballots, though ultimately withdrawing and claiming he was not running. He gave his support to President Donald Trump, and encouraged his supporters to go with the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement, even using the phrase Make America Healthy Again in response.

Every single one of these senators should have to declare and state verbally before asking any questions of RFK jr if they currently or have ever received financial benefits or otherwise from big pharma, under the threat of perjury

I just want to stop my food, water and environment from being poisoned. It's crazy that there's so much contention over this

[SMRMAGAZINE]

Rfk sure held it together while being yelled at and talked over.

[johnnyblaze]

Crazy to believe these are the people who represent us, chill with the attitude and let the man speak

[jedediahjenk]

Why are these senators taking him out of context? It’s crazy they won’t let him speak.

[jamesvickery]

If his cousin Caroline Kennedy hates him, Bobby Jr is a right fit for the job.

[joshuapreston]

Yelling at a Nominee is incredibly unprofessional.

[tomcaron]

Confirm this guy and let him loose! I feel healthier already!

[TidalRaiden]

talking smack to RFK Jr about his 2 mil while she's sitting on 73 mil! who's corrupt again???

[bekind]

Thank you RFK for all you are doing for us. For really caring and fight for our health and better future! It’s not an easy job with so many obstacles but I’m sure you will do it amazingly.

The evil swamp monsters are running scared

[DominicG-]

I sat through the whole thing, came into this more or less blind. What I can say is that I trust RFK Jr. more than every single person on that committee. He seems genuinely passionate about the average American, which is what I think America DESERVES. Confirm the man already.

[lPlague.]

Anyone on the committee that is pushing against MAHA tells me everything that I need to know about them

[ArronP]

RFK Sr. would be so proud, go jr.
he's tough that's for sure and smart

[CarolPierce-tm]

Confirm this articulate, smart, sensible man...MAHA!!

[stephaniecurtis]

This was far more telling of those on the panel than definitely know who does and doesnt have the health of Americans as a priority and its not the people on the panel.

Why is it so difficult for these Libs to understand that every human being has a right and duty to change their values and opinions when a change-of-heart occurs. I've known many people whose position on abortion has changed dramatically over the years. As new information becomes available, it is only natural that one's opinion may change.

[clinteastwood]

From California, make America healthy again and confirm RFK Jr.!

[kayyr.]

Fully support RFK Jr. He provides insight into the meaning of a vaccine or a shot.
Have been following him since 2020.
He has done great things.
He will MAKE AMERICA HEALTHY AGAIN!

Every time I hear “0n both sides of the aisle” it reminds me of what’s wrong with this country
