President-elect Donald Trump will reportedly nominate campaign surrogate and former Democrat Robert Kennedy Jr. as Health and Human Services Secretary.
"I am thrilled to announce Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as The United States Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). For too long, Americans have been crushed by the industrial food complex and drug companies who have engaged in deception, misinformation, and disinformation when it comes to Public Health. The Safety and Health of all Americans is the most important role of any Administration, and HHS will play a big role in helping ensure that everybody will be protected from harmful chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, pharmaceutical products, and food additives that have contributed to the overwhelming Health Crisis in this Country," Trump released in a statement Thursday. "Mr. Kennedy will restore these Agencies to the traditions of Gold Standard Scientific Research, and beacons of Transparency, to end the Chronic Disease epidemic, and to Make America Great and Healthy Again!"
Donald Trump Jr. also confirmed the news on X.
Robert F Kennedy Jr will be The Secretary of Health and Human Services!

During his own presidential campaign against President Joe Biden earlier this year and as a backer of former President Donald Trump, Kennedy has vowed to take on Big Pharma and corruption fueling the health crisis in America.
From The Hill:
One of the most remarkable aspects of the populist alliance between Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Donald Trump is that it puts the incoming Republican administration at loggerheads with the very Big Pharma, Big Food and Big Agricultural interests that have been traditional bastions of Republican support.
President-elect Trump’s pledge to “let Bobby go wild” on his Make America Healthy Again agenda has corporate lobbyists in these industries convening emergency conference calls and burning the midnight oil to stop Kennedy in his tracks.
I will get the corruption out of our government agencies and Make America Healthy Again. This is what I've been doing for 40 years. pic.twitter.com/1cjNC5cu2G— Robert F. Kennedy Jr (@RobertKennedyJr) November 7, 2024

I have to believe lobbyists with big mortgage payments are gulping.

I’m still skeptical about RFK Jr.
Here in NY 8 years ago, RFK Jr., via his “Riverkeeper” NGO, convinced Andrew “nipple rings” Cuomo to shut down the Indian Point nuclear plant (which closed in 2021) on the Hudson River
It supplied 30% of baseload electricity for NY City. It had been operating without problem since the early 1960s, was fully depreciated and produced electrical power for under 3 cents KWH (while most residents of NYC pay 30 cents KWH!)
In the case of HHS though, I won’t mind if he turns his radical views on the bloated bureaucracy there.

Personally, I suspect Kennedy is half right and half nuts. But I’ll take it just to get back at the Covid Cartel!
