As a seasoned observer of American politics and culture, I must say that the latest appointment shenanigans have left me quite bewildered. The nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a man whose personal life seems to be a series of headlines, as secretary of health and human services, is nothing short of bizarre.
Jimmy Kimmel responded to Donald Trump’s appointment of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a well-known critic of vaccines, as secretary of health and human services in his “Jimmy Kimmel Live” monologue on Thursday evening, stating that the choice is “very questionable.
Who could be more fitting to oversee health matters than a man who, as RFK Jr. himself revealed, had a part of his brain eaten by a worm?” This is how Kimmel put it, alluding to RFK Jr.’s disclosure that an anomaly found in his brain scan was caused by a worm that invaded his brain and consumed a portion before passing away, as reported by The New York Times in May.
RFK Junior, the offspring of the late U.S. attorney general and senator Robert F. Kennedy, participated in the 2024 presidential race; initially challenging Joe Biden within the Democratic primary, then launching an independent bid, and ultimately backing Trump. Besides his anti-vaccine stance, RFK Junior was also involved in a controversy in September when New York Magazine journalist Olivia Nuzzi disclosed they had a private connection with him.
This fact tells you a lot about our current situation: RFK was discovered having phone sex with a reporter, who was then let go. But what happened to him? He ended up being appointed as Secretary of Health and Human Services. Why not? If Matt Gaetz becomes the Attorney General, why not put Gary Busey in charge of the CIA? Go all out!
During his show on Wednesday, Kimmel expressed anger towards Gaetz, who was under scrutiny due to multiple accusations. Prior to resigning to apply for the attorney general position, Gaetz faced an investigation by the House Ethics Committee regarding claims of sexual misconduct and illicit drug use. Additionally, he has been under federal investigation for allegedly involving himself in sex trafficking with a 17-year-old girl. However, Gaetz denies all these accusations against him.
Kimmel noted that in many professions, having connections to underage sex trafficking would hinder career progression,” he said. “However, in the Trump administration, such an experience could be touted as a unique skill on one’s resume.
