Free Republic

Democrats so enjoyed forcing Americans to do silly things during COVID, like starving their children of oxygen and letting Grandma die alone, that they leapt right back to their hectoring at the Senate hearing this week with Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Blithely unaware that public health authorities have become objects of seething hatred throughout the land, Democrats -- and a few Republicans -- harangued Kennedy for not trusting "science" and "experts." Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., began the idiot-fest by accusing RFK of prevaricating during his confirmation hearing when he claimed to be "pro-safety and pro-science."...

"I understand that there are differing views about ending the sentence of this killer, including within my own family. But emotions and opinions do not change facts or history," former congressman Joseph P. Kennedy II said. "The prisoner killed my father because of his support of Israel," Kennedy wrote in a separate statement. "The man was tried, convicted, and sentenced to death. Yet he now may walk free, no doubt to the cheers of those who...

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced Wednesday he has fired all 17 members of the CDC’s vaccine advisory panel and replaced them with a new slate of experts — many of whom are known skeptics of the COVID-19 vaccine narrative that dominated the federal government for years. .... Snip.... The sweeping overhaul targets the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP)—a behind-the-scenes body that decides which shots Americans (and their children) are told to get and when. For decades, ACIP has quietly rubber-stamped every Big Pharma product shoved in front of it, often with zero transparency, zero...

A pair of farmers go up against bird flu hysteria and government overreach. MAHA Man to the rescue? Hundreds of healthy ostriches owned by a small family farm in Canada are marked for death — unless U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. can win them a stay of execution. Karen Espersen and Dave Bilinski's Universal Ostrich Farms in the Kootenay region of British Columbia has become an international touchstone for hysteria over avian flu, government overreach, and the property rights of farmers. Cull me, maybe On Dec. 19, 2024, the couple noticed that one of their...

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...

U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Martin Makary announced a new policy directive limiting employees of companies the agency regulates, such as pharmaceutical companies, from serving as official members of FDA advisory committees. “While the FDA should be partnering with industry to ensure a user-friendly review process, the scientific evaluation of new products should be independent,” Makary said. “Industry employees are welcome to attend FDA advisory committee meetings, along with the rest of the American public, but having industry employees serve as official members of FDA advisory committee members represents a cozy relationship that is concerning to many Americans,”...

The U.S. is still reeling from the COVID-19 pandemic with more and more long COVID cases emerging. Bird flu is a growing threat. Measles outbreaks have been occurring. Antibiotic-resistant organisms continue to spread in healthcare settings. So what do you do next if you are in charge of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, which is supposed to protect the health of humans in the U.S.? How about lay off the entire staff of the U.S. government’s Office of Infectious Disease and HIV/AIDS Policy?

An Israeli biotech firm says it is nearing human trials for a breakthrough drug that could extend human lifespan by up to 30 percent by targeting the age-regulating protein SIRT-6, which the company says would also improve brain function, organ health, and overall vitality.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., now serving as Secretary of Health and Human Services under President Trump, made waves on Monday when he joined Sean Hannity for an interview at a Florida Steak ‘n Shake location. The two conservative powerhouses dug into burgers and fries while discussing the real health crisis gripping America—one caused by decades of government-endorsed junk science that pushed seed oils and ultra-processed foods on the public. Earlier this year, Steak ‘n Shake announced that by February 2025, all its locations will transition away from vegetable oil—a product long criticized for its links to inflammation, obesity, and chronic...
