AI Summary:
Robert F Kennedy Jr has faced a barrage of questions about his history of spreading anti-vaccine conspiracy theories. Kennedy has been picked to lead the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) he spent most of Wednesday’s hearing seeking to dispel the idea that he is “anti-vaccina”. Senator Michael Bennet asked the nominee about his prior assertion that the COVID-19 pandemic was engineered to target white and Black people. Bennet also asked Kennedy about a claim that Lyme disease is "likely a militarily engineered bioweapon" Republicans, who control the 100-seat Senate, have largely supported Kennedy’s nomination. All of Trump’s cabinet picks have been confirmed so far. Kennedy said on Wednesday that he would uphold the Trump administration’s abortion policies. If confirmed, he plans to deliver on a promise to “Make America Healthy Again”.
