Caroline Kennedy says RFK JR cheated through life, the senators urge not to confirm

Caroline Kennedy, the only surviving child of President John F. Kennedy and a former US ambassador, sent a letter to lawmakers who urged them not to confirm her cousin Robert F. Kennedy Jr., whom she referred to as a “predator” and said was “unqualified” both professionally and personally to be the next secretary of health and human services (HHS).

RFK Jr. is ready to sit for two Senate Committee on Wednesday and Thursday this week, where legislators will have a chance to investigate him on different questions related to his nomination as health and human service secretary. At the forefront of these hearings, Caroline sent a letter to senators who will vote on her cousin’s confirmation and explained why she thinks he should not be allowed to run the federal government’s main agency.

“Over the past year, people have asked for my thoughts about my cousin Robert F. Kennedy JR and his presidential campaign. I commented not only because I served in a government position as US ambassador to Australia, but because I never wanted to speak in public about my family members and their challenges, ”Caroline said in one Video Posted online about her who read the letter. “But now that Bobby has been nominated by President Trump to be secretary of health and human services, a position that would put him responsible for the health of the American people, I feel a commitment to speak.”

In addition to arguing that her cousin was missing the relevant government, financial management and medical experience to fill the role of HHS secretary, Caroline said her cousin’s personal qualities were also a disqualifying factor. In the letter, Caroline called his cousin a “predator”, arguing that he has tried to exploit his family’s tragedies for advertising and brought his siblings and cousins ​​down an addiction path.

“It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator,” she said. “I saw his younger brothers and cousins ​​follow him down the path to drug addiction. His basement, his garage, his dorm room was always the center of the action – where drugs were available and he enjoyed showing how he put baby chickens and mice in a Blender to feed to his hawk.

Caroline admitted that such moments were “long ago” and that she admired her cousin to find his way out of his addiction. “I admire the discipline that took,” she said. “But siblings and cousins ​​that Bobby encouraged down the path of drug abuse, suffered addiction, illness and death, while Bobby has moved on to wrongly represent, lie and cheat through life.”

Caroline added to the letter that her cousin was “dependent on attention and power”, and also accused him of having magnificent “for my father’s assault and his own father.”

“It is incomprehensible to me that a person who is willing to exploit their own painful family tragedies for advertising would be held accountable for America’s life and death situations.”

She also shot at her cousin’s view of vaccines in the letter and called them “dangerous and intentionally wrongly informed.” In the past, Kennedy has put theories that vaccines are causing autism, claimed that they are not safe for young children, and accused them of an increase in chronic illness throughout the United States.

“Bobby Preys about desperation of parents of sick children who vaccinate their own children while building a subsequent hypocritical deterrent of other parents from vaccinating theirs,” she said. “Monitoring FDA, NIH, CDC and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services -Agencies accused of protecting the most vulnerable among us is a huge responsibility and one that Bobby is unqualified to fill.”

RFK Jr.’s confirmation remains uncertain as both Republicans and Democrats have questioned his attitude to vaccines and other public health issues. Legislators from several rural areas have also raised concerns about the potential of RFK Jr. could seriously disrupt the agricultural sector as a result of his shocking views on healthy eating.

He faces questions from both the Senate Committee for Funding and the Senate Committee for Health, Education, Workers and Pensions this week. However, only the Finance Committee will eventually vote on whether RFK Jr.’s nomination should promote a full floor vote.
