Last Thursday, Donald Trump announced that he’d picked Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. as his Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). This is a yuuuge appointment. If Bobby Junior winds up overseeing HHS, he will be in charge of the federal agency with the largest budget of them all. It’s bigger than the Department of the Treasury and the Department of Defense. It gobbles up nearly a quarter of the national budget.

In thanking Trump, RFK Jr. wrote on X:

I’m committed to advancing your vision to Make America Healthy Again.

We have a generational opportunity to bring together the greatest minds in science, medicine, industry, and government to put an end to the chronic disease epidemic. I look forward to working with the more than 80,000 employees at HHS to free the agencies from the smothering cloud of corporate capture so they can pursue their mission to make Americans once again the healthiest people on Earth.

Together we will clean up corruption, stop the revolving door between industry and government, and return our health agencies to their rich tradition of gold-standard, evidence-based science.

The current Assistant Secretary for Health is a grotesque man-goblin who calls himself Rachel Levine. Looking at Levine and RFK Jr. side by side, who seems healthier? Levine was allowed to flourish in a media climate so mentally polluted that even his Wikipedia page is careful not to mention the fact that he is a biological male who was born Richard Levine.

But though RFK Jr. walks and talks like a renegade, outsider, and someone who “speaks truth to power,” he comes from one of America’s most legendary political dynasties.

He is one of four Kennedys to run for president. His father was shot and killed while campaigning in 1968. His uncle John had his brains blown out—or so they say—in history’s most controversial presidential assassination. His uncle Ted ran an unsuccessful presidential campaign in 1980. Although no one ever tried to blow out Teddy Kennedy’s brains, he did die of a brain tumor in 2008. To my knowledge, no one tried to assassinate RFK Jr. during his campaign, although he once claimed a worm had entered his brain and died.

In December 1960, president-elect John F. Kennedy wrote an article for Sports Illustrated called “The Soft American.” It bemoaned how young Americans were showing a “consistent decline” in physical fitness and how “our growing softness, our increasing lack of physical fitness, is a menace to our security.”

Sixty-four years later, America is physically softer than ever. It’s a nation of wheezing, out-of-shape, junk-food-addled flab-monsters and chemically modified biological freaks who would have appalled JFK.

Rushing in like a superhero to save the day, trim the fat, and leach the poisons comes the hyper-muscular RFK Jr. with his cartoonishly masculine bench-pressing and back-flipping. He is a master falconer. He is a licensed raptor propagator. (I don’t even know what that is, but it sounds macho.) He isn’t “toxically masculine”; he’s a masculine man who’s against toxins.

He once said of himself, “I am not a church boy. I had a very, very rambunctious youth…. I have so many skeletons in my closet that if they could all vote, I could run for king of the world.” Like Trump, RFK Jr. is a convicted felon. In 1984, he pleaded guilty to felony possession of heroin. The charges scared him straight after what he claimed was 14 years of heroin use. He’s a reputed womanizer whose philandering may have played a role in his second wife’s suicide. Not counting Trump, he is one of four Trump picks who “have sexual misconduct allegations in their past.” Although women frequently lodge false sexual-misconduct complaints against public figures, it’s based on the premise that people would believe the accused was at least masculine enough to be interested in having sex with a woman.

On matters of race, he’s predictably and depressingly woke. He edited the magazine Indian Country Today back in the 1990s and showed up in Nevada earlier this year wearing a colored poncho at some gathering of “Large Tribes.” During Black History Month this year, he “joined a panel on the state of Black [sic] America, speaking on issues of environmental racism, medical discrimination and other issues affecting the Black [sic] community.” He’s a rabid, foaming, frothing, vehement, virulent Zionist and is pals with diminutive dildo salesman Rabbi Shmuley Boteach. He has repeatedly compared vaccine mandates to Nazi Germany, with the obvious implication being that the Nazis were bad. This has led to Jewish publications accusing him of being anti-Semitic. I’m unaware of him ever saying anything positive about white people as a group. Ah, well. Guess he can’t love everyone.

He focuses most of his hate for corporate and pharmaceutical malpractice. He’s against Big Pharma. Big Ag. Big Telecom. He’d ban most pesticides. He’d take the fluoride out of drinking water so it ceases to calcify our pineal glands and compromise our precious bodily fluids. He’s been a bulldog fighting against forced COVID-19 mandates. He’s heckled Anthony Fauci to the point that Fauci called him “a very disturbed individual.”

In 2023, he suggested to Jordan “I’m in Pain” Peterson that gender dysphoria in children could be caused by atrazine in the water supply, citing a study that says it causes feminization in frogs.

What’s most intriguing, hilarious, entertaining, and encouraging is that RFK Jr. seems impossible to politically pigeonhole. Without changing a single opinion, he’s found common ideological ground with Alex Jones, Robert de Niro, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ted Kaczynski, and the John Birch Society.

Throughout most of my life, caring about the environment has been classified as a far-left, hippy-dippy political position. Then again, I wasn’t alive yet when the Nazis invented modern environmentalism. Nor was I aware that “green conservatives” cared about conserving the land.

When Obama was first elected, his backers reportedly considered RFK Jr. to lead the Environmental Protection agency, but his policy positions and past statements were considered too “liberal” and “left wing” for Obama. Now, since RFK Jr. threw his weight behind Trump—again, without changing a single opinion except for some negative things he’s said about Trump in the past—he’s a dangerous right-wing fascist conspiracy theorist.

He hasn’t changed. The world around him got dumber. And sicker. And fatter. Detoxifying America’s bloodstream will be RFK Jr.’s version of draining the swamp.

For now, RFK forges ahead at age 70 as the Undead Kennedy. Whether another Kennedy is now on the national stage to unmask the Deep State—or whether he’s just a Deep State puppet anointed to give people false hope that the Deep State is finally being unveiled—is yet to be determined. If he’s for real, the biggest danger he faces is a hitman from Big Pharma putting a bullet in his head.
