Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appeared on "Fox News Sunday" to talk about his plans to partner with Donald Trump to "Make America Healthy Again," and dropped some big truth bombs about the corruption and perverse incentives within the United States' public health agencies.

RFK Jr. on Fox News: “The most profitable thing today in America is a sick child”

“We need to get the corruption out of FDA, out of NIH, out of CDC”

Host Shannon Bream asked RFK Jr. if he wants to dismantle the federal government agencies (allegedly) related to public health - FDA, NIH, and CDC. In his response, he pointed out some harsh truths about how those agencies function that more Americans need to be aware of: 

"I wouldn't dismantle them. I would change the focus, and I would end the corruption. Right now, 75 percent of FDA’s budget is coming from pharmaceutical companies. That is a perverse incentive.

"In NIH, the - scientists and officials at NIH who work on drug development, incubate drugs for the pharmaceutical company, get to collect lifetime royalties from those products. These are regulators. They’re supposed to be looking for problems in those products.

"We have these agencies that have become sock puppets for the industries they’re supposed to regulate, so they're not really interested in public health.

"The most profitable thing today in America is a sick child. Everybody’s making money - the hospitals are making money, the pharmaceutical companies are making money; even the insurance companies make money.

"We need to end those perverse incentives, we need to get the corruption out of the FDA, out of NIH, out of the CDC, and make them function as they're supposed to function, which is to protect public health and to protect childrens' health.”

On this topic, he is absolutely correct. The "public health" apparatus in this country seeks to keep people obese, sick, and unhappy by putting them on an endless loop of pharmaceuticals, and censoring any information that would lead people to physical health and happiness because there's no money for them in that equation.

Prior to COVID lockdowns and forced vaccinations, there was already a movement of moms and grandmas in this country - and dads and grandpas, too - looking for political leaders who would do the things that RFK Jr. spoke about in this segment, and after what we saw the "public health" officials do during the COVID time frame that movement has only grown. By having RFK Jr. campaign for Trump on these issues, the Trump/Vance ticket can gain a significant segment of these voters, many of whom might not have already been on the Trump train. As Bobby is saying, winning this election (and saving America) is about growing a coalition, and he's really hit the ground running.
