RFK Jr. Defends Trump's Sanity
The exchange with Representative Mark Takano also touched on the potential invocation of the 25th Amendment, which Kennedy dismissed as unnecessary.
Kennedy argued that Trump's aggressive rhetoric regarding Iran was a calculated negotiating tactic rather than a sign of instability.
The hearing also saw Kennedy clash with Representative Lucy McBath over his past comments on autism, which he refused to apologize for.
Despite the controversy, Kennedy remains a key figure in the administration's push for health policy reforms.
