Robert F. Kennedy’s famous name, populist stances and loyal following have earned him President Donald Trump’s support, but will that get him the votes he needs from the Republican-controlled Senate to become the nation’s top health official?

If confirmed by the Senate, Kennedy would head the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), which oversees many of the country’s health agencies, from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

In a letter to senators, Caroline Kennedy etches a damning sketch of her cousin, the latest condemnation Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has received from members of his family.

Caroline Kennedy, a member of the famed U.S. political family, urged senators on Tuesday to reject her cousin Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s nomination to lead the top U.S. health agency, calling him a "predator" and his healthcare views "dangerous.

Caroline Kennedy called her cousin, Robert F. Kennedy, a 'predator' ahead of his confirmation hearing for Health and Human Services secretary.

MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell details how Caroline Kennedy’s condemnation of RFK Jr. is the “most important” public statement made about any Trump nominee in which she urged senators to reject him as unfit and argued that her father and uncles “would be unanimously disgusted” by the idea of RFK Jr.

In a video posted on Jan. 28, Caroline Kennedy urged the Senate to reject the nomination of her cousin Robert F. Kennedy to be secretary of Health and Human Services.
