RFK Jr. Is a Feature, Not a Bug

RFK Jr. Is a Feature, Not a Bug

Tapped by Trump for the role of health secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. presents himself as someone willing to say what other politicians won’t. But during his Senate confirmation hearings, both Democrats and Republicans questioned his previous statements about vaccines—and questioned whether he even knows what the job he’s trying to get entails. But his nomination signals that maybe it isn’t about vaccines - it’s about wanting to blow up the whole healthcare establishment.


Guest: Dan Diamond, White House correspondent for The Washington Post
