RFK Jr Delivers on His Public Health Mandate, Taking on Big Ag and Big Pharma at HHS

RFK Jr. is setting the public health agenda, and his effective maneuvering has the establishment reeling.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has fulfilled the promise of his appointment as Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), wisely and surgically taking measures that prevent Big Ag and Big Pharma from dictating the public health policy in the U.S.

RFK Jr. told the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to stop the recommendation of the COVID-19 vaccine for children and pregnant women last week, a decision that enraged health officials and media talking heads beholden to pharmaceutical corporations.

“Last year, the Biden administration urged healthy children to get yet another COVID shot, despite the lack of any clinical data to support the repeat booster strategy in children,” Kennedy said in a video address of his announcement.

The evidence backs up RFK Jr.’s decision. Pfizer's own clinical trials demonstrated that COVID shots were linked to an increase in preterm births and miscarriages. Pfizer's report on pregnancy and lactation also showed the vaccine adversely affected babies during the nursing process, showing an increase of edema, vomiting, fever and other issues.

COVID shots were pushed onto children despite an extremely low chance of children dying from the disease. Data shows that children are far more likely to suffer from an adverse side effect from the shots such as heart inflammation, blood clots or Guillain-Barre syndrome than die from COVID. Pushing the experimental vaccine on children was always a shameless money grab for Big Pharma clouded in fear pushed by the bought-off medical establishment.

RFK Jr. has also gone after toxic food additives that are banned in many other countries but are regularly found in the food supply throughout the U.S. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) under RFK Jr.'s orders are requesting the removal of Red No. 3 as well as Citrus Red No. 20 and Orange B from the national food supply. They are also moving to ban Red No. 40, Blue No. 1, Blue No. 2, Green No. 3, Yellow No. 5, and Yellow No. 6. by the end of the year.

The FDA states that these petroleum-based food dyes are connected to an increase in many different diseases and health conditions, including diabetes, cancer, obesity, ADHD, and various gastrointestinal disorders. This is a massive change from the years when the FDA was completely regulatory captured by the food industry.

"Why are we taking a gamble?" FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary said. "While America's children are sick and suffering, 41% of children have at least one health condition, and one in five are on medication. The answer is not more Ozempic, more ADHD medication and more antidepressants. There's a role for those medications, but we have to look at underlying root causes."

"I just want to urge all of you, it's not the time to stop; it's the time to redouble your efforts, because we have them on the run now, and we are going to win this battle," Kennedy said during a news conference announcing the food dye ban. "And four years from now, we're going to have most of these products off the market, or you will know about them when you go to the grocery store."

RFK Jr. is also taking aim at biased medical journals that are bought and paid for by Big Pharma. While appearing on a podcast, RFK Jr. pointed to the New England Journal of Medicine, the Journal of the American Medical Association and The Lancet as three corrupt medical journals that have jettisoned their integrity over the years by becoming glorified industry propaganda.

“Unless those journals change dramatically, we are going to stop [National Institutes of Health] scientists from publishing in them and we’re going to create our own journals in-house,” RFK Jr. said.

Under RFK Jr., the White House released a report indicating that the overprescription of medications is likely fueling the sharp increase of chronic disease among children. The report claims that groupthink, influenced by massive corporate spending, has prevented doctors from pursuing alternatives outside of the Big Pharma-driven status quo and hamstrung research into the causes of chronic disease, preferring costly treatments that will run up profit margins at the expense of the patient instead.

“This report brings to the forefront a body of scientific research that has been largely ignored as we have been so busy as doctors in the modern health care system, billing and coding and seeing patients in short visits,” Dr. Makary told reporters about the study.

RFK Jr. is also taking aim at fluoride, the poison that is put into the water supply and into other products under the guise of protecting the teeth of children. The FDA announced a scientific review of supplements that contain fluoride and are marketed to children for the purposes of dental health that will take place by late October.

Dr. Makary noted that these fluoride products can harm gut bacteria, hurt digestion, affect immunity and cause other health problems when ingested. Dr. Markary also pointed to studies showing that fluoride ingestion can lead to lower IQ. States throughout the country are also restricting or banning fluoride in the water supply as it becomes more obvious that the so-called conspiracy theorists were correct about fluoride’s ill-effects from the outset.

The record shows that RFK Jr. has shattered the glass ceiling in Washington D.C. preventing anyone who is not an industry hack from obtaining bureaucratic power, and he is now working methodically to change the culture that has put corporate profit-seeking ahead of the public good.

RFK Jr. is setting the public health agenda, and his effective maneuvering has the establishment reeling.

This may have been the most consequential appointment of President Trump’s second term.
