"The Late Show" host discusses how the "antivax, nepo-maniac" is Trump's pick to head up Health and Human Services

According to his 2021 book, The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health, RFK Jr. believes that Fauci and Gates are members of a “vaccine cartel” trying to kill patients by denying them hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin.

One person said having an anti-vaxxer like Kennedy lead the Cabinet department is "like naming a flat-earther to lead NASA."

He wants vaccines subjected to the same scientific rigor as all the other medication,” Pinsky told NewsNation’s “On Balance.”

Democratic Colorado Gov. Jared Polis praised President-elect Trump for nominating RFK Jr. to be the next secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services.

This isn’t the first time Polis, who is seen as a possible 2028 Democratic presidential contender, has shown a willingness to butt heads with his party.

Trump nominated Kennedy for Secretary of Health and Human Services earlier in the day, a move that will likely rattle the public health community given Kennedy's long history of pushing anti-vaccine conspiracy theories and promoting medical treatments whose effectiveness has not been sufficiently proven.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s push to strip processed food out of school lunch and limit food dye marks a shift in how Trump is planning to regulate the nation’s food.

The president-elect says the long-standing vaccine sceptic will "make America healthy again", in his first speech since election night.

Trump chose Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to run Health and Human Services Department, which oversees NIH, CDC and FDA, among other agencies.

Gov. Jared Polis took to social platform X on Thursday to express his excitement that President-elect Donald Trump had tapped Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as his choice for Secretary of Health and Human Services.
