RFK Jr. Too Sick to Keep Us Well as HHS Chief
Infected with conspiracy theories that make him unfit for public office
Public service is a sacred trust. The people we elect or appoint to lead must demonstrate integrity, competence, and a commitment to truth. RFK Jr., despite his well-known family name, fails to meet these standards. His nomination to be the next Secretary of Health & Human Services raises serious concerns about his ability to serve the American people effectively and responsibly.
RFK Jr.’s history of promoting dangerous conspiracy theories undermines his credibility as a leader. From spreading misinformation about vaccines to peddling baseless claims that sow distrust in our institutions, he has consistently chosen sensationalism over science and fact. In a time when public trust in leadership is fragile, we cannot afford to have someone in power who has a track record of fueling division and misinformation.
Top 5 Reasons to Oppose RFK Jr. for Secretary of Health & Human Services:
Spreading Misinformation: RFK Jr. has been a vocal proponent of anti-vaccine conspiracy theories, endangering public health and undermining trust in science.
Lack of Credible Leadership Experience: His career has focused more on activism and controversy than on effective governance or problem-solving.
Promoting Division: RFK Jr. often aligns himself with fringe groups and rhetoric that divide rather than unite Americans.
Questionable Judgment: He has admitted to outrageous behavior (perhaps fueled by a 14-year heroin addiction), including mistreatment of animals.
Misplaced Priorities: Instead of focusing on real, pressing issues, RFK Jr. diverts attention to fringe ideas that do little to address the challenges facing everyday Americans.
Leadership isn’t about drawing attention to yourself — it’s about solving problems and serving the public good. RFK Jr.’s focus on fringe ideas distracts from the real challenges we face as a nation. Whether it’s strengthening public health, addressing climate change, or ensuring the integrity of our institutions, America needs leaders who are grounded in reality and ready to take meaningful action.
The challenges we face demand leaders who inspire confidence, act with integrity, and prioritize the well-being of all Americans. RFK Jr. has shown time and again that he is not that leader. His nomination is a risk to public health we cannot take.
We must demand better. Our future depends on it.
