RFK Jr. Shocked At 'Tsunami Of Anger' Over Autism Comments
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appeared confused Tuesday over the “tsunami of anger” caused by a series of offensive comments he made about autism.
Appearing on “Jesse Watters Primetime” on Fox News, Kennedy suggested he was baffled at the “wave of anger” because “I announced that we’re going to find the cause of autism,” sidestepping the fact that it was largely his commentary that caused the backlash.
Kennedy, a vaccine skeptic who has spread widely disproven theories that shots are linked to autism, continued, “We’ll have answers within six months. We’ll have definitive answers within a year, and then we’ll be able to eliminate the exposures. And this kind of tsunami of anger against me for making that announcement was almost incomprehensible to me.”
Doubling down, Kennedy added, “We know it’s an epidemic.”
Earlier this month, Kennedy called the disorder a “preventable disease” and an “epidemic” as he announced his department would by September identify what is causing a surge in cases.
In particular, critics called out Kennedy’s assessment of autistic individuals’ capabilities.
