Robert F. Kennedy, President Donald Trump's nominee for Health and Human Services secretary, survives two heated confirmation hearings but still faces crucial Senate votes
Testifying in front of the Senate Finance Committee on Wednesday and the Health Committee on Thursday, the vaccine skeptic and environmental crusader who ran for the White House in 2024 before ending his bid and endorsing Trump faced plenty of verbal fireworks over past controversial comments.
And while most of the tough questions and sparring over his stances on vaccines, abortion, Medicaid and other issues, came from Democrats on the two committees, Thursday's hearing ended with the top Republican on the Health panel saying he was "struggling" with Kennedy's nomination.
