Watch RFK Jr. lose it when senator calls him out for 'making things up' [View all]
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appeared before a Senate committee Thursday to answer for the ongoing upheaval at the Centers for Disease Control. Things got heated between Kennedy and Sen. Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire when she demanded evidence for his decision to remove the CDC’s recommendation that healthy children and pregnant women receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
“People who want to exercise their freedom of choice are being denied that because, you know, because you are citing data that you won't produce to the public,” Hassan said.
“You're making things up to scare people, and that's a lie,” Kennedy interjected.
“With respect, I do not think I'm the one making things up,” Hassan replied.
