What’s left to say? After episodes about vaccines and just general science. Jessica has been thinking about what she could add to the RFK Jr. conversation and realized there’s something that hasn’t been quite clear. As dangerous as Kennedy’s anti-science stance is, he is also incredibly basic. 

Today Jessica is joined by Dr. Natalie Ingraham to review both the Senate Finance Committee and Senate HELP Committee hearings and recent developments along the path to HHS Secretary. The two talk about how he was caught in his lies, his grilling by Senator Warren, and his quote about Black people needing a different vaccine schedule.

RFK Jr. was recommended Tuesday to the full Senate for a vote to become Secretary of HHS. 

Discussed:

Onesies

Angela Alsobrooks

Denying he said what he said

Quote on abortion
