One year after taking charge of the nation’s health department, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. hasn’t held true to many of the promises he made while appealing to U.S. senators concerned about the longtime anti-vaccine activist’s plans for the nation’s care.
Kennedy squeaked through a narrow Senate vote to be confirmed as head of the Department of Health and Human Services only after making a number of public and private guarantees about how he would handle vaccine funding and recommendations as secretary.
It doesn’t take a fucking court case to prove he made bold faced lies when he said he wouldn’t do the things he had done for decades and then continued to do.
Come on news, he lied. Just fucking say he lied.
Apparently, news organizations are now just allergic to the words: lie, liar, lies, lying, and lied. They must be, because every time I see a Republican speaking, they’re lying about something new and the news is AFRAID to call them out on it. Hard-hitting American journalism is all but dead now.
He didn’t “break promises” — he lied.
Fuck you, NPR.
