YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was sworn in as head of the US Department of Health and Human Services, launching a new era in health policy after the one-time presidential hopeful openly questioned the safety of widely used vaccines and promised to remove artificial food dyes from America’s food supply.

Kennedy was sworn in by Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch in the Oval Office on Thursday afternoon after winning Senate approval largely along party lines, 52-48.

President Donald Trump called Kennedy “a fierce advocate for the health of our children” before announcing that the US would establish a commission to investigate the increase in chronic illnesses.

Kennedy had faced two tense confirmation hearings in which he was questioned over his flip on abortion policy and the possibility he could dismantle America’s vaccine infrastructure.
