LIVE l Robert F. Kennedy Jr. faces Senate confirmation hearing

Kennedy will appear Wednesday first before the Finance Committee, one of two committees with jurisdiction over HHS, and again on Thursday before the Health Committee. Kennedy's confirmation is far from certain in the Senate, where he is expected to face pointed questioning from both Republicans and Democrats on the chamber's health and finance committees.

Bring back mom and pop farms and be done with corporate farms that are killing us

Our health care system needs an overhaul big time. And the cost of healthcare needs to go down. Big time.

[katiesioux]

He had spent many, many years fighting for Americans and denying that is ignorant and ridiculous

[michaelbonit]

The animosity he is facing only further implies the great number of corrupt politicians who fear him.

Senator Warner sounds so obnoxious and rude. Won’t even let Kennedy answer any questions!

RFK Jr is such a good, brave man. Grateful for him.

I ABSOLUTELY support RFK Jr for this position, I'm a 68 year old female who suffered from autoimmune issues of which the current system told me there was no Cure, so I did my Own research and through Diet and Lifestyle choices I completely Reversed my autoimmune disease.. our current food companies and the health care system IS The Problem.. when the food and chemical problems are addressed there will no longer be a need for Health Insurance..

[cheririley]

This is so painful to watch...please please confirm him.

[topherwakefield]

I thought they were supposed to ask RFJ Jr, questions, not rambling, ad hominem smears, half-truths, and outright lies.

[maryhirsch]

Look how unruly they are! Looks more like a circus than a Congress!

[freddykagin]

RFK jr knows what he’s doing and what and people need to stop undermining him. President Trump Has His back. And many of we the people do too. Stop fighting with Him. It only shows who you are.

[rhymeez]

Can the dems make themselves look any worse at this point?

[freddykagin]

Thank you RFK jr for what you are doing and what you are saying. We need you now.

[airrik]

Bernie and Warren: keep lecturing and screaming for 5 minutes, then ask: "Yes or no"...😂 Pathetic!

[rodtaylor]

my IQ has dropped 4 points listening to the Democratic Senators

[katiesioux]

He can't be intimidated or bought or scammed. RFK Jr is hardcore and we need him!!!!
I bet he is very cool to sit and chat with, he has a lot to teach us!

We need Drs to not manage disease with drugs only. Root causes take time, lab work, radiology, ect, but patients usually do not qualify for necessary tests … i.e. Patients get sicker before insurance will cover tests…. Or ties Drs best practices… quite frankly insurance runs the doctors … a$$ backward isn’t it ?

[KarolM]

Those Democrats were so nasty and rude to him! They disgusting people, and all they did was grandstand. Shame on them.

Pharmaceuticals should be tested for at least twenty five years to know long term outcomes and dsmages before they are released on the public
