Robert F. Kennedy Jr. decried Democrats who “used to be my friends” until President Donald Trump nominated him to be a part of his administration, arguing that both sides of the aisle need to “unite” to make the U.S. healthier.
BREITBART -- While speaking during his first round of Senate confirmation hearings for Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) secretary on Wednesday, Kennedy stressed the need for “radical transparency” and bipartisanship in the agency:
RFK Jr. called out the Democrats straight to their faces.
"These Democrats used to be my friends... Now they're against me because anything that President Trump does, any decision he makes, has to be lampooned, derided, discredited, marginalized, vilified."
“My approach to HHS, as I said before, Senator, is radical transparency. Democrats and Republicans ought to be able to come in and get information that was generated at taxpayer expense, that is owned by the American taxpayer,” he said to Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI).
“They shouldn’t get redacted documents. Public health agencies should be transparent … If we want Americans to restore trust in the public health agencies, we need transparency,” Kennedy continued, before saying that his 2024 presidential campaign “was about uniting Americans — Democrats and Republicans.”
According to the former Democrat presidential candidate, there is “no issue that should unite us more than this chronic health epidemic,” and there is “no such thing as Republican children or Democratic children.”
