RFK Jr.'s sister Kerry Kennedy, who runs the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Center, called her brother's recent comments about the Covid virus 'deplorable.'

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is facing backlash from his own family after his recent public comments about COVID-19.

The Democratic presidential candidate made antisemitic and racist comments, claiming the virus was engineered to favor Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese people while targeting Caucasians and Black people.


RFK Jr.'s sister—Kerry Kennedy—denounced his remarks in her capacity as president of the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights, a non-profit human rights advocacy organization.

In an official statement, she wrote:

"I strongly condemn my brother's deplorable and untruthful remarks last week about Covid being engineered for ethnic targeting."
"His statements do not represent what I believe or what Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights stand for, with our 50+-year track record of protecting rights and standing against racism and all forms of discrimination."

Kennedy also shared her statement of social media.

Kennedy Jr. said at a New York City press event:

"COVID-19. There is an argument that it is ethnically targeted. COVID-19 attacks certain races disproportionately."
"COVID-19 is targeted to attack Caucasians and Black people. The people who are most immune are Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese."

Kennedy later claimed the New York Post misunderstood his words.

People weren't buying it however.











In 2021, Kerry Kennedy responded to her brother's anti-vaxxer rhetoric.

She told AP:

"I love Bobby, I think he's just completely wrong on this issue and very dangerous."
"Failure to take vaccines puts people's lives at risk."
"It not only impacts the person who refuses the jab but imperils the community at large."

Design For New Commemorative Coin Featuring Trump Just Dropped—And People Can't Believe It's Real

On March 19, the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts (CFA), comprising people appointed by MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, unanimously approved a final design concept proposed for a 24-karat gold United States semiquincentennial commemorative coin.

Instead of featuring the Declaration of Independence or some other images central to the foundation of the nation in 1776 or more universally recognized symbols from the last 250 years, the CFA chose a sketch based on a photo of Trump leaning over the Resolute desk in the Oval Office for the coin's obverse or "heads" side.

Gavin Newsom Said What We're All Thinking About Trump's Decision To Deploy ICE To Airports

After President Donald Trump moved to deploy ICE agents to U.S. airports amid a partial government shutdown that has caused exceptionally long delays at TSA lines nationwide, California Governor Gavin Newsom pointed out exactly why the move is so troubling for citizens and non-citizens alike.

ICE agents are still getting paid during the shutdown, unlike TSA agents, who are currently working unpaid and struggling amid the affordability crisis. News outlets have confirmed ICE agents have been deployed in airports that serve Democratic strongholds, particularly John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia Airports (New York), O'Hare International Airport (Chicago), and others.
