Trump plans to kill Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to nominate as his Secretary of Health and Human Services, Bombshell reports
President-elect Donald Trump is expected to announce that he will nominate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has chosen to lead the Department of Health and Human Services.
That announcement will send shockwaves through the public health sector, as Kennedy is a prominent anti-vaxxer and has pushed conspiracy theories on a number of health-related topics.
DailyMail.com previously reported that Dr. Ben Carson – a respected surgeon who became a presidential candidate in 2016 – was in the mix. Carson was also almost elected vice president.
But Kennedy boosted Trump’s 2024 election campaign by suspending his independent presidential campaign the day after the Democratic National Convention concluded in August and telling his supporters to support Republicans in key swing states.
Kennedy later embraced Trump even more – telling his supporters in the US to support Trump – arguing they had a vision to “make America whole again.”

Kennedy launched his presidential bid in March 2023 as a Democrat.
He is the son of the late Senator Robert F. Kennedy and the nephew of the late President John F. Kennedy, both of whom were assassinated in the 1960s.
RFK Jr. contacted Trump about a possible endorsement after his own confrontation with the death of a gunman in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13.
Kennedy then traveled to Milwaukee as the Republican National Convention took place in the days after the July shooting, but canceled planned counter-programming for his own presidential run as he initiated a dialogue about joining Trump’s team.
