RFK Jr reviewing resumes for top Trump health jobs, sources say
SUMMARY
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., former independent presidential candidate, is reportedly reviewing candidates for top health positions in Donald Trump’s incoming administration, including the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Kennedy, who supported Trump after ending his campaign in August, is expected to play an influential role in shaping the administration’s health agenda. Although some sources say Kennedy won't officially lead HHS, his recommendations are intended to align with Trump’s goals to address chronic illness, particularly among children, with noticeable progress expected within two years. Del Bigtree, a former campaign aide, noted that Kennedy’s stance on health includes advocating for more rigorous vaccine testing and reconsidering fluoride in public water supplies, a claim disputed by mainstream health experts.
