Ambassador Caroline Kennedy’s statement to the US Senate on RFKJr’s nomination for HHS Secretary
This is a reading of a letter she just sent to Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions
I’m so proud of my courageous mother, who’s lived a life of dignity,…

Caroline Kennedy begins her letter by pointing out that she did not comment on her cousin during her presidential campaign because she was then an ambassador of the United States in Australia and for how united her generation of 28 cousins is. “But now that Bobby has been nominated by President Trump to be Secretary of Health and Human Services, a position that would be in charge of the health of the US people, I feel the obligation to speak,” he says.
JFK’s daughter points out that her cousin is not qualified for office. “It lacks any relevant experience in financial, government or medicine management. These facts alone should be disqualifiers, but it has personal qualities related to this work that, for me, raise even greater concern, ”he says.
“I know Bobby of a lifetime. We grew together. It is not surprising that he has raptors as pets, because Bobby himself is a predator. He has always been charismatic, able to attract others by the force of his personality, his willingness to assume risks and break the rules. I saw his little brothers and his cousins follow him on the path of drug addiction. His basement, his garage, his bedroom were always the center of the action where drugs were achieved, and he enjoyed showing how chickens and mice put in a blender to feed their hawks. It was often a perverse scene of despair and violence, ”he says.
“Half conspiracy truths”
Caroline Kennedy values that her cousin was able to overcome her drug addiction, but points out that “the brothers and cousins whom Bobby encouraged to follow the path of substance abuse suffered addiction, illness and death.” “Bobby has continued to misrepresent, lying and cheating on his way for current life. While he can encourage a younger generation to attend alcoholics anonymous meetings, Bobby is addicted to attention and power. Bobby takes advantage of the despair of parents of sick children: vaccine to their own children while gaining followers by hypocritically discouragement to other parents so that they do not empty their own, ”he attacks.
The premium of the candidate for Secretary of Health also criticizes “the half conspiracy truths” that she has said about vaccines “, in relation to Mortal Samoa A measles outbreak of 2019, which, he says,” have cost lives. “
Caroline Kennedy points out her cousin’s decision to maintain a financial participation in the dispute against Merck, which manufactures a vaccine against the human papillomavirus (HPV) that is administered to protect against cervical cancer. “Bobby is willing to benefit and enrich himself denying access to a vaccine that can prevent almost all forms of cervical cancer, and that has already been safely administered to millions of boys and girls,” he says.
“We are a united family. None of that is easy to say. Nor was it easy to remain silent last year when Bobby expropriated the image of my father and distorted President Kennedy’s legacy to boost his own failed presidential campaign and then crawl to Donald Trump to get a position. Bobby continues to flaunt my father’s murder and that of his own father. I find it incomprehensible that someone who is willing to exploit their own painful family tragedies to obtain advertising is put in charge of the life or death situations of the United States ”continues.
He is sure that his father, President John F. Kennedy; His uncle Robert F. Kennedy, father of Trump’s ally, and his uncle Ted Kennedy, who had a long career as a senator, would feel very disgusted with the idea that Robert F. Kennedy Jr would be in charge of US health .
The members of the health community, they conclude, deserve a well -informed leader and committed to evidence and excellence. ” “They deserve a secretary committed to the advance of avant -garde medicine, to save lives, not to reject the progress that we have already achieved. They deserve a stable, moral and ethical person to the helm of this crucial agency. They deserve something better than Bobby Kennedy, and also the rest of us. I urge the Senate to reject his appointment, ”he ends.
Republicans have a majority of 53 to 47 votes in the Senate. A maximum of three defctions can be allowed in their ranks, because that would allow the vice president, JD Vance, to cast a favorable tiebreaker vote. Trump and his allies have been thoroughly used to press Republican senators to accept their appointments. Robert Kennedy Jr. not only bothers some Republican senators for their positions on vaccines, but also because in the past he has been a defender of the right to abortion. “Ra member of the Democratic Party until he decided to run as an independent candidate in the presidential campaign last year. On your responses on Wednesday’s audience about vaccines, abortion and your personal life can depend on which side the balance is over.
