RFK Jr. already 'bitterly warring' with other Trump allies: report

Raw Story  

Conspiracy theorist and former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was rewarded by Donald Trump for campaigning alongside him with a nomination to head up the Department of Health and Human Services. In particular, reported Meredith Lee Hill and Adam Cancryn, Kennedy's demands for how Trump staff the U.S. Department of Agriculture have gone ignored and he has been "bitterly warring" with Trump allies over the appointments. Instead, the president-elect made a wild-card pick — a former White House aide with little formal experience in agriculture policy and no record on the public health concerns driving Kennedy’s agenda. Trump’s choice of Brooke Rollins, who co-founded the Trump-aligned think tank America First Policy Institute, to lead the Agriculture Department represents something of a victory for the entrenched agriculture interests that view Kennedy as a foe." Trump and Kennedy were brought together on the campaign trail largely due to their shared courting of conspiracy theorists on vaccines; while Trump oversaw development of the first COVID-19 immunizations through Operation Warp Speed, he publicly became outspoken against the vaccine mandates necessary to bring the pandemic under control.
