The CIA released 1,450 additional pages of documents related to the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy on Thursday, including 54 previously classified documents. The files could shed new light on the motivations of Sirhan Sirhan, the Palestinian-born Jordanian citizen convicted of Kennedy’s murder after the 1968 shooting. One of the handwritten notes includes the lines “Kennedy must fall” and “tonight, tonight.” Other records will disclose details about a trip that RFK took with former Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas to the Soviet Union in 1955, during which the future US attorney general and senator “served the Agency as a...

This week, Chairman of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wisc) held a hearing to reveal the findings of a report titled: Failure to Warn: How Federal Health Agencies Downplayed the Risk of Myocarditis and Other Adverse Events Following COVID-19 Vaccination. He opened the hearing by asking former director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Francis Collins "isn't myocarditis a serious medical condition that can cause death? Once data showed that within the first few months that the COVID vaccine was available adverse events included nearly 3,000 fatalities, nearly half of which occurred within three days of...

In-N-Out Burger has announced a major menu switch, changing the ingredients of a few of its beverages. "As part of our ongoing commitment to providing our customers with the highest-quality ingredients, we have removed artificial coloring from our Strawberry Shakes and Signature Pink Lemonade," Patty Pena, a spokesperson for the California-based burger joint, confirmed to Fox News Digital on Wednesday. "We’re also in the process of transitioning to an upgraded ketchup, which is made with real sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup," Pena said. HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. called out sugar during the agency's announcement on the artificial...

Quoth Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on September 15, 2008 on the Huffington Post in criticism of Governor Sarah Palin: Fascist writer Westbrook Pegler, an avowed racist who Sarah Palin approvingly quoted in her acceptance speech for the moral superiority of small town values, expressed his fervent hope about my father, Robert F. Kennedy, as he contemplated his own run for the presidency in 1965, that “some white patriot of the Southern tier will spatter his spoonful of brains in public premises before the snow flies.” http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robert-f-kennedy-jr/governor-palins-reading-l_b_126478.html?page=32&show_comment_id=15725640#comment_15725640 Yet the same Robert F Kennedy, to my knowledge, hasn't said boo about Bill...

Zombietime post about Ayers’ book Prairie Fire leads to his denial of Emeritus statusDuring Barack Obama’s 2008 run for the presidency, I dug up an extremely rare original edition of Prairie Fire, the forgotten communist manifesto co-written by Obama’s friend and colleague William Ayers, and I published excerpts of the book at zombietime. As I wrote at the time, “This essay only exists to correct and unequivocally debunk claims routinely made by the mainstream media over the last few weeks … that William Ayers wasn’t such a bad guy after all, and that it is no shame to be associated...

Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson Holy smokes. RFK Jr. is going off on Democrat members of Congress: “You say that you've worked for 20 years on getting food dye out..” “I got it out in 100 days. Let's work together and do something we all believe in, which is having healthy kids.” 11:46 AM · May 14, 2025

The Food and Drug Administration and the US Department of Health and Human Services have announced a ban on all petroleum-based synthetic food dyes beginning in 2026. Robert F. Kennedy has warned for years that America’s food supply has been compromised with chemicals that have aided in causing America to be the sickest nation in the developed world. The FDA is taking the following actions: Establishing a national standard and timeline for the food industry to transition from petrochemical-based dyes to natural alternatives. Initiating the process to revoke authorization for two synthetic food colorings—Citrus Red No. 2 and Orange B—within...

The table below displays the file names and links to all of the documents released related to the assassination of Senator Robert F. Kennedy. For records released on April 18, 2025, researchers may encounter a combination of black and white and colored scans. Here’s why: black and white scans were used in order to more efficiently facilitate the prioritized interagency review process. However, some pages were not legible in black and white. When the National Archives encountered unreadable pages, they were replaced with legible color scans.

It seems I’m being “red-pilled” on something new every day now. One more “conspiracy theory” I’d heard about but also rolled my eyes about (the Media is so effective!) appears to be true: Climate or geo engineering–the spraying of chemicals into our skies by aircraft to affect the weather, is not only “a thing,” but from what I am quickly gathering, it is dangerous as hell– something that is rapidly killing our planet and killing us. Last night I watched a recent episode of the Redacted podcast (of which I highly recommend–the hosts discuss the critical issues of our world...

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said in a televised presidential cabinet meeting Thursday that his agency will investigate and identify the cause of rising autism rates in the U.S. by September, though scientists have said a large part of the jump in rates are linked to improvements in autism awareness and diagnoses. Kennedy said the Health and Human Services Department has started a “massive testing and research effort” involving “hundreds of scientists from around the world” that will allow the government to know by September the cause behind the jump in autism rates, adding “we’ll be...

A federal judge will temporarily block President Donald Trump’s administration from cutting billions in federal dollars that support COVID-19 initiatives and public health projects throughout the country. U.S. District Judge Mary McElroy, appointed by Trump in 2019 but first nominated by former President Barack Obama, in Rhode Island said Thursday that she plans to grant the court order sought by 23 states and the District of Columbia.“They make a case, a strong case, for the fact that they will succeed on the merits, so I’m going to grant the temporary restraining order,” said McElroy, who plans to issue a written...

A federal judge granted a temporary restraining order Thursday that stops the Trump administration from pulling back more than $11 billion in public health funding from state and local health departments. Judge Mary McElroy of the federal district court in Rhode Island granted a 14-day restraining order to a group of 23 states and the District of Columbia that filed a lawsuit against the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) earlier this week. “The likelihood of success on the merits is extremely strong,” McElroy said at the conclusion of the brief hearing, noting that “the record is voluminous …...

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stands at a crossroads. After years of pandemic fallout, opioid deaths, and declining public trust, the agency needs bold, decisive leadership. What it doesn’t require is another physician at the helm. In recent years, the CDC has almost exclusively been led by physicians, clinicians whose primary training, instincts, and oath revolve around caring for individual patients. But medicine and public health, though deeply related, are fundamentally different. Medicine treats individuals. Public health protects populations. Leading the CDC is less about diagnosis and more about infrastructure, logistics, and prevention. It is a...

The entire staff of the federal government's Office of Infectious Disease and HIV/AIDS Policy is expected to be laid off, multiple federal health officials told CBS News Friday. The moves are part of a broader restructuring plan ordered by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. that involves cutting 20,000 HHS positions. Much of the government's efforts to buoy lagging childhood vaccination rates nationwide have been run through OIDP, including a new campaign called "Let's Get Real" that had launched in the final months of the Biden administration to provide resources and information to health care providers talking...

The Trump administration withdrew the nomination of former Florida Rep. David Weldon (R) to head the CDC earlier this month, with the former lawmaker saying the reason was the lack of sufficient support among Republicans to secure his confirmation. President Trump chose Susan Monarez, a longtime federal employee and current acting CDC director, as his new pick. Monarez has served as acting CDC director since Jan. 23, 2025. Prior to this, she served as deputy director at the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H). Before entering government work, she was a science and technology policy fellow with the American...

Secretary of Health and Human Services RFK Jr. attempted to calm the MAHA masses after new CDC director nominee Susan Monarez was attacked online for messages tweeted by a previous director. In a Tuesday X post, RFK Jr. urged, “X posts that erroneously attribute Biden-era tweets supporting masks, lockdowns, vaccine mandates, etc. to my @CDCgov Director nominee, Susan Monarez, have understandably provoked agita within the MAHA movement.” “I handpicked Susan for this job because she is a longtime champion of MAHA values, and a caring, compassionate and brilliant microbiologist and a tech wizard who will reorient CDC toward public health...

@btysonmd (Brian Tyson, MD) MAHA is officially over. Talk about being FO by the powers that may be. Lesson learned. Never trust the government for anything!!!! @SecKennedy (@HHSgov Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.) X posts that erroneously attribute Biden-era tweets supporting masks, lockdowns, vaccine mandates, etc. to my @CDCgov Director nominee, Susan Monarez, have understandably provoked agita within the MAHA movement. I handpicked Susan for this job because she is a longtime champion of MAHA values, and a caring, compassionate and brilliant microbiologist and a tech wizard who will reorient CDC toward public health and gold-standard science. I’m so grateful...

President Donald Trump has selected Susan Monarez as his new nominee to head the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Monarez, a scientist whose previous work looked at using artificial intelligence to improve health, has already been serving as acting director. The White House abruptly withdrew Trump's first pick, Dr. Dave Weldon, a Republican former congressman from Florida, just before he was scheduled for a confirmation hearing before the Senate Health, Labor, Education and Pensions Committee three weeks ago.
