RFK Jr. slams CNNs Dana Bash in fiery shouting match over over vaccines, measles and Covid: You were part of the problem

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F.Kennedy Jr.

got into a fiery clash with CNN host Dana Bash over the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccines, and autism.Tensions began to flare after Bash noted how the Kennedy scion has pinned a lot of the blame for the COVID-19 pandemic fallout on Dr.Anthony Fauci, who repeatedly pleaded the Fifth Amendment during questioning before a Senate panel last week.But after Kennedy started describing his plan to respond to a future pandemic, the two really began taking the gloves off.“We need to protect our constitutional rights.

That is the primary obligation,” Kennedy said during CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday when asked about how he would deal with a pandemic in the future.“One of the mistakes we made in the last time was suppressing those rights so people weren’t being heard.”Bash scoffed at his answer, saying that he was “talking about rights, and I’m asking about a potential public health crisis,” then attempted to move on to the next topic.“Because you were part of the problem,” he fired back.

“It was absolute press malpractice…your job is furious skepticism of authority, and you weren’t doing that.”The CNN anchor stressed that she didn’t want to let Kennedy get away with saying “things that are entirely untrue” and stressed that it is “factually true that the COVID vaccine worked.”“Do you want to sit here and attack me, or do you want to have conversations?” Bashed vented.An angry Kennedy fired back, “You’ve been sitting here and attacking me.”Bash then attempted to pivot to the measles outbreak, but she quickly suggested that the COVID-19 vaccines worked, including on children.

Kennedy demanded she cite one study proving that to be true, and Bash claimed that there was research indicating that vaccine misinformation led to 100,000 to 200,000 more deaths in the US than what otherwise could’ve been.“You are saying nonsense.

You are saying something that you cannot...
