RFK Jr. says he’s helping Trump pick leaders of FDA, NIH, CDC
by Juliann Ventura - 09/18/24 7:04 PM ET
Former independent presidential candidate and antivaccine advocate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said that former President Trump wants him to choose leaders for key public health agencies if he wins the election in November.
Kennedy told conservative commentator Tucker Carlson that under a second Trump term, he would be responsible for eliminating “corrupt influences” from agencies, Mediaite first reported.
“President Trump has asked me specifically to do two things. One, to help unravel the capture of the agencies by corrupt influence. In other words, to drain the swamp. And, you know, I had to say something about President Trump,” Kennedy told Carlson.
Kennedy named the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as potential agencies during a Tuesday stop in Wisconsin on Carlson’s live tour.
Kennedy and Trump previously talked about conspiracy theories related to the toxicity of childhood vaccines in a video posted to social media earlier this year, The Hill reported.
In a separate interview with Carlson last month, Kennedy said that Trump asked him to serve on his transition team if the former president serves a second term.
Trump campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt called discussions about who will serve in a second Trump administration “premature.”
“President Trump announced a Trump Vance transition leadership group to initiate the process of preparing for what comes after the election. But formal discussions of who will serve in a second Trump Administration is premature. President Trump will choose the best people for his Cabinet to undo all the damage that Kamala Harris has done to our country,” she said.
Democrats and the public health community sounded the alarm earlier this month about the possibility of Kennedy becoming the Health and Human Services secretary in a second Trump term. At the time, The Hill reported that Trump had not said what, if any, Cabinet position he would offer Kennedy.

I still can't dull the upsidemyheadsmack of a Kennedy being
associated with DJT or the current Fascist GOP on any
level, in any way at all.......

It's probable he's simply using Kennedy right now,
promising him the moon..banning vaccines and whatever
he wants to get his voters, then after the election (if
he should win), will dispose of him promptly as soon as
the next pharma company offers him a ton of money.
Everything Trump touches dies.
Do you really think JFK will survive his political
tryst with Trump to realize anything he wants to do for
himself?
JFK is a sad, sad figure all the way around.

Ayep...finding oneself in a DJT camp has to be saddest
evidence ever...whether that's realized or not would be
another story...
And you bet, after winning he'd kick him to the curb with
attitude, and Kennedy's history in a prominent Dem family
would no doubt be utilized there...
Fortunately that and other speculatory thoughts that
entertain the idea of a GOP win are all chimeric and
laughable at this point... ;)
