RFK Jr. On Casey Means as Surgeon General: The Industries Threatened by Her Nomination Are Mobilizing and Paying Bloggers to Attack Her

RUSH EXCERPT:

KENNEDY JR.: "I’m very, very happy and grateful to President Trump for nominating Casey as the surgeon general. The industries that are threatened by her nomination are mobilizing and paying bloggers, we’ve learned to attack, they are attacking mainly on the critique that she stopped practicing medicine. She was that the top of her Stanford class, president of Stanford class. As a resident she won every award you can get for the kind of surgery she was doing and she realized early on she was not healing patients. They were coming back again and again because the surgeons were treated with assumptions and not the underlying causes. She decided to devote her life to figuring out what those underlying causes were and ending those exposures, she wrote a best-selling book that mobilized the movement. I am grateful to you, the leadership you have shown in telling this story to the public. Casey is an incredible storyteller, she has a touchstone with every mother in this country. How do we take care, how do we make sure their foods are not poisoning them, she can tell that story and I don’t think there’s going to be a more effective surgeon general in our history because the capacity and talents that she has."
