- 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.

RFK has a better grasp of whats going on than anyone I have seen.
The fact that he is being grilled this hard, essentially proves that he is exactly the person we need.
what a JOKE!!!! He did not know the difference between MEDICARE and MEDICAID, YESTERDAY!!!!! He is patently, completely UNQUALIFIED!!!!!! He does NOT belong in charge of the health and well-being of ALL citizens of the United States!!! This is FAR TOO IMPORTANT!!!!! Kennedy lies, fear-mongers, spreads conspiracies and doubt!!! He is an ignorant, entitled grifter and former heroin addict that CANNOT BE TRUSTED!!!!
Warped thinking.
100%
Another delusional, uniformed maga!
When people target you for a discovery, that usually means you are on to something.
Am happy that RFK is allowed to respond to questions today. Yesterday was a embarrassing train-wreck. Yesterday's interrogators should be ashamed of themselves and should learn from their peers today.
These senators are showing their true colors
Notice how every democratic senator has the same tactic of interrupting the man in the middle of his sentences! 😒🙄😤
yep. sad that most people have no memory these days. some of us do though :)
yep call them and tell them how you feel...all of them, regardless... they rep ALL of us regardless of state.
@@bloodmooncomix457 Because he won't answer a goddamn question directly.
Go, Bobby!🎉🎉🎉
In my 34 years of life, i have only just started paying attention to politics when RFK Jr got involved. Because he speaks the truth on what really matters.
Me too!!! It’s RFKJr that got me fired up about politics and science
CONFIRM RFK JR. NOW WE AMERICAN'S WANT HIM !!!!!!!! STOP STALLING AND APROVE RFK NOW!!!!!!
Thank you Bobby for being so courageous!! Love what you stand for
Texas, too!!
His nomination should be approved.
Like yesterday
Yeah Polio
@@billdrummingbrainwashed, you are.
He’s a liar
@@sherryharpster3949 no cure for stupid. As head of the HHS he will commit to helping your psychosis.
They think we are all stupid. These people are despicable.
Corrupt politicians deserve the Mario Bros Special.
The money blinds these fools
Completely agree with RFK Jr we should most definitely question it
We the people as a majority want RFK JR as HHS! Just confirm him and move on so we can heal and get our health back as a country!
RFK is qualified and we need him in this role.
There is no candidate better qualified for the role, vote him in please
YOU are so unintelligent and uninformed!! This heroin addict has LONG AGO fried his brain with his drug use!! He is completely UNQUALIFIED. NO business experience, NO healthcare experience, no history of any business success. No government experience!!!
literally a random bypasser is better than him
Have previous nominees ever gone through such arduous questioning and not been allowed time to answer the most egregious accusations?
Those who don't let him answer obviously have the most to hide themselves.
Time constraints are horrible. There shouldn't be any. My opinion. Public is horribly served when there is a time limit on response and each senator only gets 5 minutes. It should be open ended. When the person is trying to respond the senator says RECLAIMING MY TIME. INTERRUPTING THE NOMINEE. Shouldn't happen.
Because they're losing their power and their wealth. Dems became billionaires under Obama as all these bribes came flowing in. These senators don't give a sh it about America'ns health.
Guardisel has destroyed my daughters life and we even lost two of her friends that passed after Receiving it!
Hello
Sorry for your losses
Can I ask what Guardisel is?
Absolutely fantastic person for the job
The bias from some of these senators is clear. Thumbs up if you know that you have the right to question EVERYTHING that affects your body!
This should be an interview but it’s just a time for them to grandstand and argue. RFK is qualified and has a passion to improve the lives of Americans. This is an opportunity to bring back integrity and trust to the health care industry. Confirm him.
Robert Kennedy is brilliant.
RFK's degree of senate drill and his responses show he is needed on this team.
Notice the Senators who agree with RFK JR’s stance to Make America Healthier again appears to be more healthier, cognitive, speak with facts and communicate properly. The ones who don’t agree have these sad stories and want to speak over him. It’s sad!
Confirm RFK JR. Now!!!!
this
Is Sanders going to let him respond or not!?! Wow
Why the heck won't they let him explain himself....
You are a true American RFK
I admire RFK Jr.'s strength to put up with this political meat grinder and his in depth knowledge. Do you want status quo or the opposite. RFK Jr. is the opposite and they should confirm him. The boat needs rocking
How do these clowns get voted in the office what a joke
RIGGING
Rigging and heartless. They don’t mind lying in your face about the health of your family, while making their own families rich! It takes a special kind of evil!
People are d...b
Super pacs, lobbyists, a "donors"
@@chickapeas5646 That’s so true ! Do they think the American people don’t see it? I guess maybe they don’t we have become numb to a lot and bury our faces in our phones.
Sen. Hawley why to go!! Thank you for being a gentleman.
I'm a big advocate FOR science and I don't think most people get the philosophy of science at all. There is no such thing as "settled science". While RFK's rhetoric might be hyperbolic or seem strange or go against the norm; when there are facts that don't fit "settled science", we have more work to do. In fact, in science the work is NEVER done because we NEVER have a theory which will be 100% certain. So, from both an Ethical and a Scientific viewpoint, we should continue to question and research things like causes of Autism and to know WHY there has been such an interesting increase in the statistical numbers.
I couldn’t watch Day 1 because it was infuriating with all the wolves attacking.
The shills and their masters are scared to death. RFK is going to take care of business. This reminds me of how Kavanaugh was treated
“All the wolves attacking???” WTF??? THIS unprepared, Ill-equipped, DRAMATICALLY UNQUALIFIED SWIC MORON, conspiracy spreading, lying, drug addicted, self-aggrandizing, selfish ill-equipped, corrupted POS!! He should no more be in charge of the collective health and well-being of the entirety of American citizens!!! he a a vile, corrupted and lost sole, whose most talented, most-esteemed relative, Ambassador Caroline Kennedy, spoke out emotionally about how DANGEROUS her COUSIN is, and most of all NOT QUALIFIED to do this OVERWHELMING job for the American citizens. Go sit down, little MAGA.
Every Dem took to opportunity to throw a tantrum
@@93NissanAltimajust like the MAGA shrews. Predictable
from the little ive see of today, not much different
This is the number one reason why it’s important to vote locally. These senators are a joke. It’s like they want to hide something from us. Which we can confirm just by watching this. Let’s take our country and health back. We stand with you, RFK. Jr! You are not a puppet and these people are clearly battery operated.
RFK IS OVER ENOUGH QUALIFIED FOR POSITION. Confirm HIM ASAP.
The higher the screeching, the more money you know that screeching politician took. They have to protect their cash cows.
I work pediatric OT and it’s awful!!!! A TON of children. They ALL had awful diets and followed the vax protocols to a tee….some had dx of injuries d/t MMR poke. What a joke!!
How can we trust pharmaceutical companies when they have legal immunity for vaccines? Ever since they were granted that protection, the vaccine schedule has expanded dramatically. Removing this immunity is the first step in a long process to restore public trust and accountability in the industry.
It is time to retire these dinosaurs. Term limits please.
I want a SUPER LIKE button
RFK JR is so important!!! For me, he’s second to Trump!
These people are so frustrating it’s so sad
CONFIRM NOW!!
Heavens continued Blessings and Protection to Robert Kennedy, Jr. & Kash Patel. In the sacred name of Iesus The Christ Almighty.
The cause should be for better healthcare and if vaccine is the way, then it should be encouraged. However, it shouldn't be taken unconditionally that vaccine is safe. Due diligence and transparency for better healthcare and yes to stepping up against Big Pharma to ensure fair pricing.
One thing Kaine does not mention about those studies is who paid for them.
Bernie Sanders please retire
Stupid people trying to rise above the nominee by attempting to stand on RFKs shoulders. People see right through this old page from an old playbook
Go BOBBY go!!! Love RFK
Democrats and Republicans, this is a sad state. It’s nothing but political theatre. Every question asked is a joke. My son has autism for that reason I want rfk jr. To find the cause
Healty food, healty people, no vaccines needed
This is very difficult and upsetting to watch. These individuals are unprofessional and disrespectful. Bunch of crooks.
👱♀"I personally believe that US are unable to do so, because some - people out there... in our nation, don't have maps and I believe that our education - like such as South Africa - and the Iraq... everywhere... like, such as - and I believe that they should - our education over here in the US should help the US or should help South Africa and should help Iraq and the Asian countries... so we would be able to build up our future for…"
Nailed it. 🤦
why are they so against investigating vaccines
Seriously… it makes me really question them
Because the science is there and these vaccines go through rigorous clinical trials. They have already been investigated and kennedy is known to skew data especially against vaccines.
It is scary how uneducated the majority of you guys are on science and how to interpret data
@@lgicyt872 please elaborate since you seem to be so well versed in vaccinations.
They give kids over 70 vaccines - I only had several my whole life!
Who else could do this job? He may not be perfect but he is perfect for the job.
There is so many proud soules in Healthcare that truth is not always wanted and worked with
1:49:20 Mic DROP!!!!!! I'm soooo friggin happy RFK called it out!!!! Bernie is captured. He used to be a humanitarian until he went up against Hillary. Now he has to make his donors happy=big pharma. I love you RFK... Our only hope
Why is it the Senators like Alsobrooks ask questions that are based on their opinions - not facts never allow him to answer questions?
That's what politics is nowadays. Same in Europe
@@lieke9460 So sorry to hear that. Prayers go out to you.
My Chiropractor sees SO MANY PATIENTS with HORRIBLE lifelong injuries from Gardisil!! AND OUR MEDICAL FIELD TRYS GOVING THIS CRAP TO BABIES!!! ABSOLUTELY DISGUSING!!
Rfk hero of the world
RFK is more intelligent and coherent than those questioning him. His family have more than paid the dues. Allow him to pass. If you don't, I want your name published!
Settled science? Isn't that an oxymoron? It isn't science if it can't be questioned.
All these people defending big pharma will not be forgotten.
He cooked Bernie so hard, its unreal.
I think that was a long time coming from Bobby! He had just had enough! Especially Bernie Sanders, the socialist, who sells this country a pipe dream of communism.
Colonel Sanders got fried
Wow some of these senators are so behind on current research.
You’ve got your hands full RFKJ!
Sen Scott is making comments that reflect common sense
How is anyone against RFK Jr. and wanting to get to the bottom of childhood illnesses?? Makes no sense to me… oh wait $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Bernie, calm down.
Please quit stalling and approve all Trump’s nominees!!!
The method used by those on this committee is horrible. Each badger fellow Americans willing to serve the people's office, is outrageous. You should all be ashamed of yourselves... The Americans have spoken. We want RFK Jr. Move on!
1:35:57 its not mr kennedy that we look at, for not taking vaccines, we look at the ingrediënts of vaccines greetings from the netherlands
Yuuuup
Had the Government done its job. There never would have been a. 9/11.
There is no difficulty to feel which senator or senators are on the big pharma payroll.
I find it ridiculous that they listen to tulsi gabbard speak slowly but keep cutting off rfk. I wonder if tulsi is speaking slowly just because they keep cutting off rfk more than anyone else. All this we need diversity, rfk is diverse and has a medical issue. They keep taking advantage of his medical issues.
Hassan is not as informed as she pretends. Subjection that questioning causes research to freeze is foolish. Without questioning we can’t move forward. How will we ever determine the cause of autism without questioning and new research!!!!!
Sen Hassan sometimes it takes going back over data to come up with answers. My daughter was in a program that monitors growth from birth. At 11 months she started showing signs of delay. After early preschool and head start at age 4 she was seen by a school district Dr who suspected Autism. At age 8 she was diagnosed with. Many other parents have similar stories so there is a possibility immunization have something to do with it. When you don’t know what causes Autism how can you say what doesn’t. After the last head of the CDC and the last Administration lies upon lies who would trust the data you claim to uphold. Plus your own parties over exaggerating and lies about recent events about the Medicaid portal.
That’s right! My child has profound Autism. He just totally stopped developing and regressed into his own world. 11 years old, diapers, can’t speak. Our whole life is and will be his care. He has had Genetic testing and that’s not a problem. We need to know what is causing this so that it does not continue to happen to these children. Nothing more important than our children.
@@lgicyt872 Consider this...most of the drugs currently in use are less than 100yrs in production.
Yet with all of these new drugs the age we can expect to live, is declining.
I will grant you that the medical profession can and does save lives. But too much weight is given to big pharma interests and insurance carriers.
Best discussion between Bernie and RFK. CORRUPTION. PAYOFFS. PAY FOR PLAY. Every single official grandstanding up there accepted money for favour. Murkowski gave that vibe the most.
Hopefully citizens are calling their senators telling them how to vote, afterall, this is OUR government, and if WE THE PEOPLE want RFKjr as our Secretary of Health and Human Services we should all have a say THROUGH our representatives. Their job is to listen to WE THE PEOPLE and vote as we choose, NOT for them to decide what is best for us.
@@TNgardentoeat hopefully, people will do that. Also, hopefully, people are paying attention and vote accordingly, in the future.
I know that sugar is added to so many of the things we eat. I read labels on everything I buy. I also go online and reseârch any prescription I am given. I found some of my prescriptions should not be taken together. Im so glad I take responsibility to do these things because it isnt done now . I also know for a fact that it's much more difficult for poor people to eat healthy. Healthy eating ís more expensive period
Not to mention GMO’s and the cancer causing poisons put in our food. You can’t even go to the grocery store and buy healthy vegetables to cook at home. They have zero nutritional value and no other country will even allow American food on their markets. We have huge problems.
they are very obsessed by vaccines. What about the 1000 other health related issues?
This is like heavyweight boxing and we still don’t know who’s gonna win. My money is on RFK.
This hearing has really shown how closed minded these Senators are. Not to mention they seem to think it's a hearing for them to berrate the man instead of asking questions.
I wìsh they'd stop saying "research", or "study", without having to say to everyone where and when the study was done, how thorough/ robust the study was, who financed the study, who published the study, was there any corporate financial interest in the study? And so on.
Anyone can do a study, and make it say anything they like, so long as it doesn't have to stand up to scrutiny.
I heard a very humble and open Bobby Kennedy, who simply wants to follow the science and approach vaccines with scientific due diligence. I heard him say he’d admit to being wrong if scientific outcomes proved that. Congress members need to check their emotions at the door too! Ridiculous to see our representatives getting so emotionally upset 🙄
Never seen Bernie get so flustered. Clearly hit a nerve there...
I know women who have POTS from Gardisall!!!!! Evil!
RFK Jr. all the way! He’s gonna help clean up the swamp.
Shame on these senators grilling him.
Tim Scott - you could have followed up on the Gardisil issue. But as with every Congressional hearing, there is no follow up. And RFKJ is not allowed to respond. But, you had to veer off into political stances on abortaion. I thought the Repubs were about MERIT, not politics.
could government give write offs for gym memberships or potentially prescribe gym memberships? Planet fitness is what, 20$ a month imagine instead of a 240$ drug prescription it was simply a 1 year membership tot he gym.
Bernie Sanders got wrecked
Undermining the vaccine program? Choice of words is important! Ask the vaccine injured what they think!
WE ARE DONE WITH COLLINS MCCONNEL MERKOWSKI AND EVEN ERNST! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!! NO MORE TOLERATING RINOS!!!!
Sen. Hassan is a joke
“Do you have a medical degree?”
LOL you don’t want a medical degree to do medical research, you want a research degree in a medical field, ma’am - a PhD.
Most doctors are 40 years out of date and barely have time to look at research much less parse it.
Not idea what they’re talking about it’s just a charade.
problems are so complexed, so he can not know everything on how or when things will be done without access to information withinn the enviroment and system he will work in/with
FOR THE LAST 40 YEARS IF A CHILD ACTED OUT IN SCHOOL THE TEACHER WOULD TELL THE
PARENT TO TAKE THEM TO THE DOCTOR..MY SON WAS ONE OF THOSE CHILDREN. OUT OF
29 CHILDREN 13 OF THE CHILDREN WERE PUT ON ADDERALL AND I REFUSED TO PUT MY
CHILD ON IT. TEACHERS ARE QUILTY OF THIS .
its systematic, my mom threw out their depression meds given out like candy
AMERICA APPROVES new Health Care OPTIONS! RFK JR for America!
let's not treat science as something sacred
Science and the data it presents is the only form of actual truth that exists in the world. It is shocking how uneducated people can be.
extreemly rude to talk about vaccines like this when so many children has been ruined and lost normal functions, no playing, no work, no marriage.......
Hassan is not as informed as she pretends. Subjection that questioning causes research to freeze is foolish. Without questioning we can’t move forward.
Figure out why the small farmer has to pay to participate and promote their crop to sell. All these USDA fees and farmers market fees are causing us to lose any money we can use to keep our electricity and next seasons crop to be harvested. Selling at wholesale is a loss to the farmer.
Go Bobby
Connecticut has two horrible senators.
The senators accusing him of not knowing things is hilarious. They have no idea what they are talking about and the more they say the more their dearth of understanding is exposed.
Hey Dr. Cassidy, when you were treating liver patients, how many over your career, had damaged livers because of something the government or the medical industry prescribed for them?
