RFK Jr. held NOTHING back in his first speech as Trump’s HHS Secretary.

🔥“Nothing is gonna be off limits.”

The vaccine schedule will be investigated. SSRIs will be investigated. Electromagnetic radiation will be investigated.

Here is everything RFK pledged for HHS:🧵

RFK Jr. told truths that no public health official has been willing to admit for decades.

For example, a key “reason why our agencies have lost public trust is that they have become too politicized.”

“There's no such thing as Democratic children or Republican children.”

“Science gets politicized when power and profit are involved, and power and profit are blind to compassion.”

“Reducing the influence of money, therefore, goes hand in hand with depoliticizing HHS.”

RFK Jr. reminded Americans that an “overwhelming majority” of our Founding Fathers were “citizen scientists.”

“Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, John Adams, James Madison, Benjamin Franklin, Benjamin Rush, a physician, Julian Bartlett, a physician, Matthew Thornton, a physician, and Oliver Wolcott, a physician.”

“Science and democracy were born together during the enlightenment, and they share the same ideals for openness, for public access, and for transparency.

“No one trusts science that isn't transparent about its research hypothesis, its raw data, or its conflicts of interest.”

“No one trusts a government built on lies, on secrets, on cover ups, and propaganda.”

“That's why my uncle famously observed that the word secrecy is repugnant to a free and open society.”

Millions of American moms, doctors, and young people dreamed of this day for years—or even decades.

But you’re not dreaming.

This is real life.

RFK Jr. said a “fog of narrative warfare” has left Americans with a warped view of his character and beliefs.

“Let’s start a relationship by letting go of any preconceptions that you may have about me.”

“I promise to you now to hold my preconceived answers lightly.”

“I promise to be willing to be wrong.”

“I promise to listen to all the stakeholders, inviting all the parties to the conversation, including the ones with whom I’ve disagreed in the past.”

“I promise to keep an open mind toward every possibility and every contingency.”

“I hope you will all join me in this commitment, because the health of our people is a lot more important than being right or being vindicated.”

RFK Jr. pledged that his “main mission at HHS … is to reverse the chronic disease epidemic in America.”

“We’re gonna work together to launch a new era of radical transparency.”

“We will make our data and our policy process so transparent that people won't even have to file a FOIA request.”

“Only through radical transparency can we provide Americans with genuine informed consent, which is the bedrock and the foundation stone of democracy.”

“I believe that most of you here are not here for the money.”

“My goal as Secretary here at HHS will be to create a culture of competency, of ethics, of openness, of transparency, of caring, and of pride so that individuals who share these ideals can flourish and thrive.”

“This is how the agencies under the HHS umbrella will recover their reputations as unimpeachable sources of scientific information to guide policy making, medical professionals, the public, and the whole world.”

This is not normal.

And it’s not normal that previous public health officials gaslit you into thinking it actually is normal instead of getting to the bottom of it.

Reversing this starts NOW.

RFK Jr. pledged to bring DOGE and Elon Musk into HHS to make Medicare and Medicaid more efficient.

“The same DOGE technology that has uncovered vast amounts of waste and fraud can be used to better serve our fellow citizens who depend on these programs to make sure that no one is left behind and no one is left out.”

“We will aim to set a standard of courtesy, efficiency, professionalism, and integrity that will make HHS again the envy of the world.”

@elonmusk @DOGE

RFK Jr. promised that “nothing is gonna be off-limits” in his investigation of chronic disease.

“The childhood vaccine schedule, electromagnetic radiation, glyphosate, other pesticides, ultra processed foods, artificial food additives, SSRI and other psychiatric drugs, PFAS, PFOAs, microplastics.”

“Some of the possible factors we will investigate were formally taboo or insufficiently scrutinized.”

“Whatever belief or suspicion I have expressed in the past—I’m willing to subject them all to the scrutiny of unbiased science.”

“That is gonna be our template: unbiased science.”

“Let's use protocols that we all agree on in advance and not alter the outcomes of the studies when they're halfway through and that look inconvenient.”

“Let's all depoliticize these issues and reestablish a common ground or action and renew the search for existential truth with no political impediments and no preconceptions.”

MAHA: What is your reaction to RFK Jr.’s first speech as President Trump’s HHS Secretary?
