Summary

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Trump’s HHS nominee, expressed belief in the “plandemic” conspiracy, suggesting the COVID pandemic was planned by the government.

He also compared COVID efforts to Nazi experiments and accused the government of using bioterrorism to implement social controls.

Kennedy’s statements raise concerns about his understanding of infectious diseases and his potential impact on pandemic response.

    Kennedy’s statements also raise the remarkable specter that the man who could soon lead the Department of Health and Human Services believes that the department may have carried out a “sinister” scheme to “enslave” its own citizens—and that this scheme was implemented under the leadership of Donald Trump, the very person who has now chosen Kennedy for the HHS post.

    I guess the only problem Kennedy really had with the claim is that he wasn’t in on it.

      That’s true about most of the conspiracy crowd. If you look at their ramblings there’s a thick streak of envy running through them. They don’t want to stop the shadowy individuals they believe run the world, they’re angry that they’re not one of them.

        Shit, I’m angry I wasn’t chosen for Hogwarts or the Jedi Academy. That doesn’t make any of this bullshit real.
