America to decide the next President of the United States today
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has indicated that former President Donald Trump plans to give him “control” over the Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
Kennedy indicated that Trump “promised” him “control” over “public health agencies, which are HHS and its sub-agencies, CDC, FDA, NIH, and a few others,” plus the USDA.
He made the comments in a video clip that has been circulating online.
The New York Times reported that Kennedy noted via text that the video was a recording from an internal talk with campaign workers regarding get-out-the-vote efforts for Trump.
“I stand ready to help him rid the public health agencies of their pervasive conflicts and corruption and restore their tradition of gold-standard, evidence-based science,” Kennedy said in a statement, according to the outlet.
The HHS secretary and USDA secretary posts are both cabinet-level positions.
“No formal decisions about Cabinet and personnel have been made, however, President Trump has said he will work alongside passionate voices like RFK Jr. to Make America Healthy Again by providing families with safe food and ending the chronic disease epidemic plaguing our children,” Trump campaign national press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.
“President Trump will also establish a special Presidential Commission of independent minds and will charge them with investigating what is causing the decades-long increase in chronic illnesses,” she added.
