Aaron Rodgers sends RFK Jr. warning to US Senate ahead of Trump cabinet confirmation hearing

Aaron Rodgers sends RFK Jr. warning to US Senate ahead of Trump cabinet confirmation hearing

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers has issued something of a ‘heads-up’ to Congress ahead of a confirmation hearing for one of his friends, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Kennedy has been nominated by President-elect Trump to be the Secretary of Health and Human Services.

This is one of the cabinet positions where the candidate nominated by the President-elect must pᴀss a confirmation hearing and a vote in order to ᴀssume their office.

Rodgers, who reportedly considered an offer from Kennedy to be his running-mate back when RFK Jr. was running for President, said on ‘The Pat McAfee Show’ that he was looking forward to watching the hearings to ‘just see who tried to f*** with him.’

‘Like, please, somebody try and get after him and just watch him absolutely mop the floor with any of these senators,’ Rodgers said. 

‘You better come ready senators, come ready and try and see if you can pull one over on my boy, Bobby, because Bobby’s f—— smart, dude.

‘And no notes, off the cuff, can handle his own pretty well, so excited for him to – and honestly so should everybody.’

Kennedy has promoted a number of health takes considered controversial by members of both major political parties – such as plans to de-fluorinate the water supply, spreading misinformation about multiple vaccines and touting the benefits of raw milk. It’s part of his so-called initiative to ‘Make America Healthy Again’. 

Rodgers touched on that, especially on the backs of a plan from the Food and Drug Administration to ban red food dye due to its potential cancer risks: ‘Like, if you spend a minute researching ingredients in products in the states compared to overseas, it’s disgusting,’ the star quarterback said. 

‘It’s disgusting what they allow here, the levels that they allow here, products that are terrible for you, products they know are carcinogenic. 

‘So it’s going to [be] as he’s doing a service to everybody if you just let him and get the hell out of the way and stop trying to label him as whatever the f— they want to label him these days.

‘He just wants to make sure that everything that’s being given to our kids is safe, everything that we’re ingesting on a day-to-day basis is safe, and he’s going to ‘Make America Healthy Again’ or is going to freaking die trying.’

No confirmation hearing for Kennedy has been set yet as Congress prepares to begin a second Trump presidency.

Rodgers finished his first full season with the Jets weeks ago. He started every game and New York finished 5-12, missing out on the playoffs yet again.
