Sen. John Kennedy just OBLITERATED the Democrats’ narrative on HHS budget cuts with nothing but a few simple questions.
RFK Jr. was under heavy fire.
Then Sen. Kennedy stepped in—and hit a grand slam.
This exchange flipped the whole hearing on its head.
You have to see it.
🧵 THREAD
HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. went head-to-head with Senate Democrats today over major proposed budget cuts, including $18 billion slashed from the NIH and $3.6 billion from the CDC.
But for many Democrats, you’d think it was the end of the world.
Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) led the charge, slamming Kennedy for a $3 billion drop in federally funded biomedical research compared to last year.
Kennedy stood his ground.
“We’re cutting waste, we’re cutting duplicative programs,” he said.
Still, Baldwin wouldn’t let up. She framed the loss of “3,200 fewer grants” as an attack on “life-saving programs.”
Kennedy hit back with a devastating stat.
“We spend 70% of the world’s biomedical research out of NIH. 70%. And we’re the sickest country in the world,” he said.
“We’ve had a 38% increase in our agency growth over the past four years,” he added. “That money has not been well spent.”
The exchange summed up a broader dynamic: Democrats trying to paint RFK Jr. as a villain, slashing life-saving science, while Kennedy pointed out that America’s health is declining because of how this money is being spent, not despite it.
Then came Senator John Kennedy, and he dismantled the entire narrative with a few simple questions.
Before I break it down, you should really watch the full exchange for yourself. It’s nothing short of glorious.
The first line of questioning pointed out that HHS staff went from 82,000 to 62,000, the same level it was at before COVID in 2019.
Sen. Kennedy sarcastically asked, “Is this the first time that an institution in America has ever downsized?”
“I don't think so,” RFK Jr. replied.
Sen. Kennedy kept ramming this point home.
“Microsoft just announced that they were going to reduce their workforce by 6,000 people. You think that’ll be the end of Microsoft?”
“I don’t think so,” RFK Jr. answered.
Sen. Kennedy kept going.
“Meta—I still call them Facebook—just announced they’re going to reduce their workforce by 3,000 people. You think that’ll be the end of Meta?”
“I imagine it will not,” RFK Jr. said.
“Yeah. Think maybe the people at Meta know what they’re doing?” Sen. Kennedy asked.
“I think that they do,” RFK Jr. responded. “They make a lot of money.”
“Do you hate NIH?” Senator Kennedy asked.
“I love NIH,” RFK Jr. said earnestly. “I grew up with NIH. I visited when I was a boy. I loved science, and those were my favorite afternoons visiting the labs.”
Then, the gloves came off.
Senator Kennedy argued the best way to increase medical research funding was to “stop the stealing.” He explained how universities misuse taxpayer dollars:
“Let’s suppose NIH gives a university $100 million for medical research. That university takes $30 million of it, doesn’t spend it on the research, and uses it to subsidize the rest of their university. Does that show a commitment to medical research?” he asked facetiously.
Kennedy pointed to a real-life case, citing Stanford as an example.
He said they were taking 78% in indirect costs, and no one really knew where the money was going.
“That’s theft, isn’t it?” he asked, adding, “In Louisiana… we call that STEALING.”
Sen. Kennedy asked RFK Jr. point-blank:
“Is there any doubt in your mind that a lot of universities are taking this NIH money, which is supposed to be spent on medical research, and using it to fund other parts of their university? Is there any doubt in your mind, Bobby?”
RFK Jr. explained that while private grantmakers like the Gates Foundation or Rockefeller Foundation pay just 10%–15% in indirect costs (overhead expenses that universities charge on top of research grants), the NIH has been paying 50%, 60%, even 70%.
This means taxpayer-funded grant money meant for medical research is being misused and spent far more loosely than it would be under private grantmakers.
With his last question, Sen. Kennedy asked RFK Jr., “ Why do we allow highly processed foods in America?”
“That’s a complicated question,” RFK Jr. replied, “but it’s driven by profits to a food industry that is making money by poisoning American kids.”
He added, “And they don’t do it abroad. They make the same products for Canada and for Europe that do not contain many of those chemicals.”
Before wrapping up, Senator Kennedy took one last shot at the partisan drama:
“You understand, Mr. Secretary, there’s nothing you can do that’s going to make many of my Democratic colleagues happy. You get that, don’t you?”
“I do understand,” RFK Jr. replied. “I’m coming to understand that, Senator. Yes.”
And just like that, Sen John Kennedy not only put a smile on Kennedy’s face, but also torched the “budget cuts kill people” narrative and exposed how bloated spending has failed the very people it’s meant to help.
From that moment on, the Democratic outrage fell apart. The narrative had already been flipped, and everyone in the room knew it.

Looking for something else to read? Bernie Sanders just backstabbed Democrats in his most brutally honest interview yet. This was a shocker.
A little bit about me: I spent over a decade working as a licensed healthcare professional. But when the Biden administration rolled out its vaccine mandates, I couldn’t stay silent. My conscience simply wouldn’t let me.
That’s when I started this page.
Since then, I’ve shared thousands of clips featuring doctors and scientists who were brave enough to question the official COVID narrative.
Along the way, we’ve reached billions of views and helped millions of people understand the other side of the COVID story that the government didn’t want out.
If you’re looking for clear, honest information without corporate spin, you’re in the right place. Follow me for straight-to-the-point clips and threads that challenge the narrative.
There’s a reason doctors love pushing vaccines. The more they inject, the more money they make.
The foot traffic alone brings in big money, but there’s another perverse incentive, and once you hear it, it will make you angry.
RFK Jr. explains: “Pediatricians who vaccinate 80-85% of the kids in their office, get these giant bonuses... And that's why they throw you out of the office if you fight back…You'll lose them their bonuses.”
Sadly, these perverse financial incentives aren’t limited to vaccines but across many areas of medicine.
Dig a little deeper, and another disturbing pattern appears. Once you see it, you’re left gobsmacked by just how far the corruption runs beyond money. 🧵
The video below is haunting—not because the doctor in it is malicious, but because she genuinely believes she’s helping.
She’s an MD with a Master’s in Public Health, a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics, and a former leader at Georgetown. Her language is warm. Her intentions seem pure.
Yet this interview perfectly captures how public health has lost its way.
After conquering most deadly contagious diseases, it turned toward chronic illness—and failed.
Instead of questioning why children are getting sicker, it doubled down on vaccinating more, earlier, and without dissent, often dismissing safety concerns as heresy.
Watch this video. Then ask yourself what matters more in modern medicine: children’s outcomes—or institutional certainty.
A lawsuit filed several years ago exposed something far more disturbing than a single act of medical misconduct.
It revealed how, during COVID, core medical ethics quietly collapsed—how consent became optional, coercion was reframed as care, and vulnerable people were treated as obstacles rather than patients.
This isn’t about ideology. It’s about what happens when fear, authority, and institutional pressure override conscience.
The real cause of heart disease has been buried for decades in favor of the lie about cholesterol.
40 million Americans take statins to lower their cholesterol, thinking it’s the best way to protect their hearts.
But what doctors never tell them is that statins interfere with the body’s natural repair system, weakening the very cells that rely on cholesterol to function.
In trying to prevent disease, they’re paradoxically fueling it.
This report exposes what really happens to the body when you take a statin every day.
For years, doctors have been taught that high cholesterol causes heart attacks. They’ve passed the warning along to their patients, and most of us have believed them.
But that idea came from one man: Ancel Keys.
Keys cherry-picked data to make fat and cholesterol look deadly while ignoring the real culprit: sugar.
John Yudkin tried to warn the world that sugar—not fat—was driving heart disease. But no one listened. He was ridiculed, silenced, and erased from history.
In 2015, Scott Adams made a “crazy” prediction that most people thought was impossible.
He said Trump had a 98% chance of becoming president, and he made that call on a single observation.
The winning attribute that made Scott confident in Trump’s victory was his one-of-a-kind persuasion skills.
While political betting markets dismissed Trump’s chances, Adams argued—using his background in persuasion and hypnosis—that Trump was the most psychologically effective candidate in the race and therefore favored to win.
He built a massive following by showing how persuasion, not policy, drives political outcomes.
That insight proved correct. But it also revealed something darker. 🧵
After Trump’s victory, Adams pivoted to punditry—and during COVID, even he struggled to see the truth.
Scott strongly endorsed the vaccines, vaccinated himself, and publicly belittled followers who refused. Many later derisively called him “Clot Adams.”
In January 2023, Adams admitted—on video—that he’d been wrong and that the anti-vaxxers were correct. But he framed it as luck: the right people just happened to distrust the government, while “all the data” supposedly pointed intelligent analysts toward vaccination.
That framing matters. It reveals how even skilled observers of persuasion can mistake marketing consensus for truth—and how the same system that manufactures medical certainty also hides the limits of medicine, until reality forces a reckoning.
Last May, Scott told the world something most people never say out loud until it’s unavoidable: he had terminal, metastatic prostate cancer.
He openly stated he planned to use California’s medically assisted dying to reduce suffering.
He also shut down speculation—saying he had already tried fenbendazole and ivermectin and had no interest in continuing them.
The reaction was explosive.
People weren’t just debating treatment choices—they were watching, in real time, what a protracted, modern death actually looks like.
For many, it shattered comforting abstractions about both cancer and mortality.
He was the only mainstream journalist who dared to investigate Pizzagate.
They mocked him. Smeared him. Erased him from corporate media.
Now, the Epstein Files are out—and every horrifying detail is falling into place.
@BenSwann_ was right all along.
Today, he joins @zeeemedia to connect the dots between Epstein and Pizzagate—and expose how the media helped cover it all up. 🧵
At first, @BenSwann_ brushed off the Pizzagate story as too outrageous to take seriously.
Claims about Hillary Clinton eating children in a pizza shop basement didn’t just sound insane—they sounded like intentional disinformation. But when the story hit national headlines and a man stormed a pizza parlor with a rifle, Swann decided to investigate.
What he uncovered changed everything.
He traced the story back to a trove of leaked emails from John Podesta—real messages published by WikiLeaks. That’s when the pattern began to emerge. The repeated use of odd terms like “pizza,” “hot dog,” and “cheese pizza” matched code words the FBI had previously flagged as part of known (the P word) communication.
The most shocking part? Swann said it wasn’t journalists or watchdogs who picked up on it first—but self-proclaimed (the P word)s on 4chan. They were the ones asking, “Does anyone else see this? These are the same words we use.”
“There’s no evidence that John Podesta is a (the P word)” Swann clarified. But what disturbed him most was the lack of any investigation at all.
“The problem… wasn’t that I found something huge. I didn’t. I just said it on TV. And because I did, the backlash was huge.”

Why was Epstein planning pandemic simulations with Bill Gates?
Newly uncovered emails reveal he wasn’t just trafficking children—he was also involved in pandemic war games, gene editing discussions, and biotech agendas years before COVID.
He had no medical background. Just deep ties to global power and plans to “improve” the human race.
And many of those same elites are still pulling strings today.
Now, a breaking study raises even more disturbing questions about what those plans may have set in motion.
Researchers have confirmed that vaccine mRNA, plasmid DNA, and spike protein can persist in the human body for more than 3.5 years after COVID-19 injection.
But it gets worse.
The findings suggest the injected population could be shedding onto the uninjected population, years after their injection—with absolutely no end in sight.
This case documents the longest-known persistence of mRNA vaccine components, independently verified across multiple labs, samples, and time points.
Epidemiologist @NicHulscher—one of the study’s authors—joins us to break it all down, including explosive revelations about Bill Gates, Epstein, and how it all ties together. 🧵
Hulscher opened with a bombshell.
He revealed that mRNA, plasmid DNA, and spike protein were still present in the body of a vaccinated patient more than 3.5 years after receiving Pfizer injections.
And this wasn’t guesswork—it was confirmed by over 200 medical tests, 40 emergency room visits, and evaluations from 18 different specialists.
While the public was told vaccine components would disappear within days, this study found the exact opposite. Those materials remained embedded in the patient’s skin and continued circulating in his bloodstream.
Even more damning, it wasn’t caused by COVID. As Hulscher made clear: “only the spike protein” was found—“not the nucleocapsid.”
“We were lied to,” he said. “I expect lawsuits to begin to flood in.”
