welcome to the megan kelly show live on sirius xm channel 111 every weekday at noon east hey everyone i'm megan kelly welcome to the megan kelly show coming to you from washington dc this afternoon fireworks on capitol hill today where robert f kennedy jr made the case that he is the man i mean indeed truly like the only man to run the Department of Health and Human Services in 2025 America and implement President Donald Trump's Make America Healthy Again agenda. His opponents didn't get it. Even some of the Republicans didn't get it. But for the most part, they did well, the Republican senators. A couple, which I'll go over, were annoying. But the Democrats once again made fools out of themselves.
They just, they made fools out of themselves. In the same way they keep looking at Trump and saying, hitler nazi fascist convicted felon and everybody's like screw you we have a country to save that's how i felt today watching them go after rfkj they don't get it that audience was filled with parents moms with infants with little kids with them trying to send a message to these senators they're done playing these ridiculous games half these senators are on the take with with big pharma or big ad for that matter, and doing big pharma's bidding live in the hearing. They don't want RFKJ. They don't want somebody who's been suing big pharma his entire career. That's who pays their reelection bills. And it was very obvious as you watch them today, they were smearing him.
I mean, left and right, those in the press, those who are on the left-hand side of the aisle in this hearing. And, you know, They weren't even trying to hide it, basically. They just wanted to make... If half this stuff had been said outside of the U.S. Senate, they could all be sued for defamation. I mean... It was amazing. Look, I will say this. They didn't go hard personal on him like they did with Pete Hegseth. They could have brought it up. You know, obviously, Bobby Kennedy is a recovering heroin addict. He said he's been sober for 42 years. They could have brought up the personal behavior with women. It's not exactly stellar on the history there. They steer clear of that, which was good.
But they, man, are obsessed with his stance on vaccines. Obsessed. And like either unwilling or unable to see what he really feels about them. I mean, look, he's not a huge proponent. I think that's fair. But they just want to paint him as somebody who wants to ban all vaccines. And he doesn't talk about banning at all. He's very against vaccine mandates. And in some cases, he wants more research being done before we push these vaccines on kids and has joined as a lawyer in some lawsuits against the manufacturers. Look. Here's here's one of the lowlights of the day. It was actually very funny. So I enjoyed the moment. But this is what we instead of talking about what he's going to do to try to get the chemicals out of our food supply, try to work with farmers and ranchers to help them avoid these toxic pesticides. in the way that they're using them now and to the measure that they're using them now.
Instead of talking about that and exactly how he plans to get all of these ultra-processed foods out of our food supply or make them just a minor offering as opposed to the dominant thing you see on yourselves and at your school lunches, instead of spending time on that, the Democrats... wanted to talk about baby clothes like Bernie Sanders, who decided to bring up this onesie, which you're putting on the screen now, put out by RFKJ's nonprofit Children's Health Defense Fund, which he's now had to leave because of this appointment. And Bernie Sanders was really upset that there's a baby onesie that reads unvaxxed and unafraid. Watch this.
You're coming before this committee and you say you're pro-vaccine. Just want to ask some questions. And yet your organization is making money selling a child's product to parents for 26 bucks, which casts fundamental doubt on the usefulness of vaccines. Can you tell us now that you will, now that you are pro-vaccine, that you're going to have your organization take these products off the market.
