Yesterday (Nov 14) Donald Trump announced that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. would be the new Secretary of Health and Human Service (HHS). This came as no surprise, since Trump had all but promised the role to RFK Jr. after Kennedy pulled out of the presidential race and joined team Trump.
Democrat politicians and their propaganda wing, the mainstream media, are up in arms about the HHS appointment and have begun to recycle some of the accusations they aimed at RFK Jr. when he was running as a democratic candidate.
Geoff Duncan, a CNN panellist, called RFK Jr. a "nut" when asked why he thought Kennedy was unqualified for the HHS position. A reporter from the New York Times appeared on MSNBC to discuss, at length, the dead worm found in his brain. And one of the hosts of The View mocked RFK Jr.'s appointment saying, "RFK Jr. ate some pork, and now he has a brain worm, is he the person that should be in charge of that, our food."
The media has long since smeared RFK Jr. as a "conspiracy crackpot" for his stances on childhood vaccinations, COVID origins, and allegedly spreading blood libel – an accusation that has resurfaced after his new HHS appointment.
The accusation was first levelled by congresswoman, Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) in a congressional hearing on social media and alleged censorship last year (Jul 20, 2023). Full video below.
"Are you aware that for centuries that Jews have been scapegoated and blamed for causing illnesses like the black plague and more recently COVID?" Asked Wasserman Schultz.
Kennedy responded, "I have, those are known as blood liable, and they are one of the worst, most disturbing parts of human history."
"Last week you floated a baseless conspiracy theory that the Coronavirus was bioengineered to target Caucasians and black people but to spare Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese people." She continued, "Mr Kennedy, your bizarre unproven claim echos that same historic slander of labelling Jews and Chinese people as a race and that Jews and, in this case, Chinese people somehow managed to avoid a deadly illness that targets other groups for death. You do see that, yes or no?" asked Wasserman Schultz.
"I was describing an NIH funded study by Cleveland Clinic Science –" said Kennedy before being cut off by the congresswoman.
The congresswoman from Florida was referencing a video that was released by The New York Post days earlier in which RFK Jr. was secretly recorded speaking at a private gathering about COVID, at one point he says, "Covid-19. There is an argument that it is ethnically targeted. Covid-19 attacks certain races disproportionately.”
"Covid-19 is targeted to attack Caucasians and Black people. The people who are most immune are Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese.” He went on to clarify, "We don't know that it was deliberately targeted."
The media was quick to attack Kennedy for his remarks, Jonathan Weisman from the New York Times wrote, "Asian Americans suffered through a brutal spate of assaults at the beginning of the Covid pandemic by people who blamed the Chinese for intentionally releasing the virus on the world. And Mr. Kennedy’s remarks about Ashkenazi Jews hit antisemitic tropes on multiple levels."
Interestingly, the pushback was not against the claim that some races were more susceptible than others, but the idea that Covid-19 could have been targeted against certain races. It is, in fact, true that certain races were more susceptible than others, you can read the full study RFK Jr. was referencing on the NIH website which confirms Kennedy's claims.
Kennedy never accused Ashkenazi Jews or the Chinese of bio-warfare, as many would have you to believe. He simply presented an argument that Covid might have been a bioweapon, given his belief that it was engineered in a laboratory and the fact that countries are known to be testing genetic bioweapons in labs around the world.
The accusation of RFK Jr. spreading "blood libel" is clearly imaginary (as always) and obviously a tactic to smear the new HHS appointee as a conspiracy theorist. Debbie Wasserman Schultz and her colleagues would rather see an overweight transgender as Health Secretary than a man who has been fighting for a healthier America his entire life.
