Whoo boy, did we have a doozy of a senate hearing yesterday. Perpetually congested Secretary of Health, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., took center stage to spew as much misinformation he could spit out of his phlegm-filled throat.
We became the sickest country in the world.

It was not pleasant for anybody.
We had RFK Jr. yelling at Senators:
Still thinking about this mind-boggling exchange regarding the former CDC director today
RFK JR: I told her that she had to resign because I asked her, “are you a trustworthy person?” and she said “no.”
WARREN: What? pic.twitter.com/cVg5ZxKBb5

Senators yelling at RFK Jr.:
Sen. Cantwell looked RFK Jr. dead in the eye and said:
“You’re a charlatan. That’s what you are.”
No euphemisms. No soft landing. Just the raw truth: RFK Jr. built his empire on snake oil and is now trying to run public health with the same con. pic.twitter.com/Crw6BiL2bP

We had arguments over easily Googled information:
WARNER: Do you accept the fact that 1 million Americans died from covid?
RFK Jr: I don’t know how many died
WARNER: You’re the secretary of health and human services. You don’t have any idea how many Americans died from covid?
RFK Jr: I don’t think anybody knows that because… pic.twitter.com/C4Zj9xXD0r

We saw RFK Jr. ensnared in a web of his own bullshit:
truly incredible exchange just now
Cassidy: “Do you agree with me that President Trump deserves a Nobel Prize for Operation Warp Speed?”
RFK: “Absolutely.”
Cassidy: “But you just told Sen. Bennet that the Covid vaccine killed more people than Covid?”

We had breathing exercises:
LMAO — an aide seemingly tells RFK Jr to mute his mic and stop breathing like a total freak pic.twitter.com/rkJubIhtmU

Even TV doctor, Dr. Oz, came up:
Bernie; So the entire medical and scientific community disagrees with you, who are your sources that agree with you?
He actually said Dr. Oz with a straight face‼️ pic.twitter.com/R0weSrhLc8

All of which is to say, it went exactly as we all expected. At least we have Twitter. The responses online were spectacular.
1.
RFK is probably the unhelathiest looking man I’ve ever seen in a suit.
He looks like the claymation California raisins. The snorting and grunting when he breathes. The red faced sweat of anger. Weird twitches and glitches in his face when he thinks.
It’s very unsettling.

Why is RFK Jr breathing like Darth Vader during this entire hearing and twitching, fidgeting and shaking constantly? https://t.co/IraFO43KZC

I’m waiting for the point where RFK Jr. demands restaurants take down all the “Employees Must Wash Hands” signs and the dumbest people on Earth then saying, “Thank you sir for going against the medical and food safety establishment”

Big dilemma for this Senate hearing:
I can’t stand listening to RFK Jr’s voice but if I hit mute his captions look like: pic.twitter.com/CBwLRaDG0E— Dan Przygoda (@dprzygoda) September 4, 2025
