'Bouncing Off Walls': RFK Credits Academic Success On Heroin
The incoming administration is already a shitshow coming to you by you know who, and one of his unqualified picks is RFK, Jr to head theDepartment of Health and Human Services.
Oh, and by the way, while RFK Jr. continues to tout the use of raw milk, California health authorities acted to recall raw milk that had been contaminated with bird flu. Good going there, sport. But he also has thoughts about heroin.
The Daily Beast reports:
Just a few months before Donald Trump nominated Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to oversee U.S. health policy, the former presidential candidate was painting a shocking picture of heroin’s effectiveness as a study aid.
“I was at the bottom of my class,” he said during a podcast appearance on the Shawn Ryan Show. “I started doing heroin, and I went to the top of my class. Suddenly I could sit still, and I could read and I could concentrate. I could listen to what people were saying.”The interview aired in July, during Kennedy’s unsuccessful run for president, but has resurfaced on social media now that the president-elected has nominated him to serve as Secretary of Health and Human Services.
I'll file that under 'things that never happened'; the nepo baby likely got attention because his last name is Kennedy.
