Senator Cory Booker Publishes Video Consistent with HHS Secretary-appointee Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s Take on Our Poisoned Food Supply

As the Trump Administration is beginning to take shape, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who helped coin the phrase “Make America Healthy Again,” was recently appointed to head the Health and Human Services by President Trump.

RFK Jr has promised to clean up our food, water, and reign in the ‘Medical Industrial Complex’ while trimming the ‘fat’ and waste from regulatory agencies.

In September, The Gateway Pundit reported on a video released by RFK Jr that shed light on the chemicals and poisons added to our food supply, often times chemicals and ingredients that are banned in almost every developed nation throughout the world.

The video is well worth the watch to understand how out of control our food and medical industry has become:

Additionally, RFK Jr. posted to X that “on January 20th, the Trump White House will advise all U.S. water systems to remove fluoride from public water.”  He cited fluoride as an “industrial waste associated with arthritis, bone fractures, bone cancer, IQ loss, neurodevelopmental disorders, and thyroid disease.”

While RFK Jr. has generally been labeled a “conspiracy theorists,” among other things, for his positions on vaccines and the negative effect it is having on our children, he has gained an unsuspecting ally in his fight to clean up the ingredients in our foods: Democrat Senator Cory Booker.

“Food in America is making us sick,” states Sen. Booker (D-NJ) in a video posted to X this morning.

“It’s driving the highest levels of disease and suffering in our nation’s history!” Booker continues.

“And our food system is putting our farmers in an economic crisis, with most American farmers having to work a job off the farm to make ends meet.  Why?  Because giant, consolidated, multinational food corporations make massive profits off this broken system.”

Sen. Booker continued to expose the system’s design to “support and subsidize ultra-processed junk foods” rather than foods doctors promote for healthy living.

Booker then explains that “more than 90% of federal food subsidies go to the foods that can make us sick.”

Booker points out that the leading cause of death in America right now is poor diet and that nearly half of Americans now are diabetic or pre-diabetic.

“Cheap, ultra-processed, subsidized foods, subsidized by our tax dollars, now make up about 73% of the foods in our grocery stores,” states Sen. Booker.

The New Jersey Senator goes on to bring awareness on chemicals and ingredients in our foods “that should not be there” and are linked to cancers and hormone disruptions and are already banned in many other countries.

For years I have been raising the alarm of the dangers of our current food system. We’re prioritizing corporations feeding us unhealthy products instead of family farmers growing fresh, healthy foods – and we let too many dangerous chemicals flood our food system.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. responded to Sen. Booker on X, stating:

Thanks Senator Cory Booker for your long history of leadership on this issue. You have been a champion, particularly against the systematic poisoning of Black and Hispanic Americans with processed and chemically laden foods through the SNAP and school lunch programs. Let’s work together to end this.

The overall health of Americans and the mishandling of our food supply by our government for decades should be a non-partisan issue.

It is an inspirational moment to see Senator Booker bring awareness to an issue that President Trump and RFK Jr. have highlighted on the campaign trail in the run up to, and following the 2024 President Election.

All partisan squabble aside, this is a refreshing ‘olive branch’ to help secure healthy, safe foods for the American population.

RFK Jr: “I’m going to be deeply involved in helping to choose the people who run FDA, NIH, and CDC.

I’ll bring in people to run those agencies like Calley Means, Casey Means.”

Tucker Carlson: “They have nightmares about that.”

RFK: “Yeah, they should.” pic.twitter.com/bcCUUFL6qM
