RFK Jr isn’t fit to lead the US Department of Health and Human Sciences, according to his cousin and noted Democrat Caroline Kennedy.

The son of the late Robert F. Kennedy is awaiting confirmation as President Donald Trump’s pick for the role.

However, as the hearings begin, she has come in hot with claims of his wild behaviour via a letter. This is a rare appeal from the Kennedy family, who tend to keep their family dynamic private.

Spanning from growing up together along with their 28 cousins and their lives as adults, the daughter of the late President John F. Kennedy’s allegations involve animal cruelty and his family life.

Here are the wildest allegations made by Caroline about her cousin, RFK Jr.

RFK Jr is a ‘predator’

Caroline dubbed her cousin as a “predator” and detailed how he allegedly led his younger siblings and cousins “down the path of drug addiction”.

RFK Jr was the third eldest child of his father and his wife, Ethel Kennedy. In 1984, his brother David died after suffering a drug overdose. The autopsy found three different substances in his system.

He ‘put baby chickens and mice in a blender’

Among her allegations against RFK Jr, Caroline detailed graphic descriptions of animal cruelty. These included how he “enjoyed showing off how he put baby chickens and mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

“It was often a perverse scene of despair and violence,” Caroline wrote.

He vaccinates his own children despite preaching anti-vax opinions

Caroline accused RFK Jr. of preaching an anti-vaccine approach as part of his political programme but insisted that he actually inoculated his own six children.

“Bobby preys on the desperation of parents of sick children, vaccinating his own kids while building a following hypocritically discouraging other parents from vaccinating theirs,” she alleged.

RFK Jr ‘exploits his own painful family tragedies’

Caroline condemned how RFK Jr “continues to grandstand off my father’s assassination, and that of his own father,” before highlighting her concern about his willingness to “exploit” their “painful family tragedies” to get power.

His father and his uncles would be ‘disgusted’ by his political life

On a separate but related note, Caroline speculated that their late family would be appalled by RFK Jr. She referred to their fathers and their late uncle, Ted Kennedy.

Robert began his entry into politics as an independent. Last year, he pulled out of the presidential race after doing a deal with Trump.
