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."

Nothing seems to get conservatives' goats quite like celebrities having political opinions—well, liberal and leftist celebrities, anyway.

They seem to love it when weird right-wing celebs like Kevin Sorbo get on the internet and say bizarre, usually counterfactual nonsense, or when JK Rowling does her darnedest to make her legacy not about Harry Potter but about her weird obsession with trans people.

Far-right provocateur Ann Coulter is facing fierce criticism after she made a genocidal remark in a now-deleted post on X in response to University of Minnesota professor and Navajo Nation member Melanie Yazzie's speech about colonization.

Yazzie, in a speech at last year's annual Socialism Conference, said "decolonization is the only thing that is going to save us as a species" during a panel hosted by Red Nation, a Native American nonprofit that advocates for Palestinian and Native American rights. She also said that the United States is the "greatest predator empire that has ever existed" and said it should be dismantled.
