Earlier this week, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. shook the pillars of the food world. This tremor is likely to morph into an earthquake of continual change for the better, especially regarding the health of children in the U.S. and around the world.
In one critically important way, there is no surprise as to why President Trump chose Kennedy for his Cabinet. Both men embody and personify the revolutionary traits of our Founding Fathers, and this is a subject I know fairly well. Three years ago, I authored a book titled, “The 56: Liberty Lessons from Those Who Risked All to Sign the Declaration of Independence.”
I wrote the book because, about a year earlier, I had become alarmed as voices on the left were increasingly smearing our Founding Fathers, calling for their “cancelation” and even calling for abolishing the Fourth of July. As such, I spent a number of months “living” in the 1776 timeframe.
There were two realities, among many, that I discovered that connect Trump and Kennedy to the mindset of our Founding Fathers. The first was that in 1776, the vast majority of the wealthy either sided with the tyrannical British Crown or stayed on the sidelines so as to not rock the boat and to preserve their privilege and wealth. The second was that there were many highly intelligent and gifted women behind those Founding Fathers. In the book, I refer to them as the “Manufacturing Mothers.”
With regard to the first connection, neither Trump nor Kennedy needed any of this. By “this” I mean positions in the U.S. government. Both had lives of wealth, privilege and power and could have safely spent the rest of their time on earth living comfortably within those bubbles. But they did not. At some point, both men looked upon the nation they loved and felt it was in steep decline or headed to ruin.
Both men likely asked themselves the same two questions our Founding Fathers would have asked themselves: “If not me, who? If not now, when?” And because they did, both have been subjected to the full wrath of some on the left.
Both Kennedy and Trump have had their reputations smeared while dealing with multiple death threats. Trump was shot by a would-be assassin in July last year. Kennedy has had his home broken into, with his wife Cheryl present, and had a heavily armed man intercepted at one of his events. Be it 1776 or today, there will always be those who don’t want the status quo upended by revolutionary minds.
Regarding the second connection, Trump and Kennedy have continually surrounded themselves with highly intelligent and accomplished women. For his second administration, Trump has brought in Tulsi Gabbard as the director of the Office of National Intelligence, Pam Bondi as his attorney general, Kristi Noem as his secretary of Homeland Security, Brooke Rollins as his secretary of Agriculture, Lori Chavez-DeRemer as his secretary of Labor, Linda McMahon as his secretary of Education, Kelly Loeffler as head of the Small Business Administration and Susie Wiles as his chief of staff.
As for Kennedy, he has long partnered with and promoted highly accomplished women in the private sector and is surrounded by them now as part of his leadership team at Health and Human Services. And do you know who knows and appreciates that reality better than most? American moms.
Two months ago I wrote here about how RFK Jr.’s “army of moms” has landed on the political shores of our nation, had burned their boats and are fighting their way forward on behalf of their children and themselves. They are doing so in large part because Kennedy’s revolutionary voice and spirit galvanized them into action.
This past Tuesday, Kennedy announced that the government will phase out all artificial dyes from the food supply by the end of next year. The ban will affect products such as breakfast cereals, candy and snacks.
Kennedy said at the press conference, “For too long, some food producers have been feeding Americans petroleum-based chemicals without their knowledge or consent. These poisonous compounds offer no nutritional benefit and pose real, measurable dangers to our children’s health and development.”
In January, also in large part to Kennedy’s revolutionary mindset and tactics, the FDA banned the dye known as Red 3 from the nation’s food supply as it acknowledged that the dye, also known as “erythrosine,” caused cancer in lab rats.
Just over 60 years ago, Kennedy’s father — Robert F. Kennedy — courageously and heroically revolutionized the office of attorney general. And, by doing so, he literally put his life on the line for his nation.
Today, his son is revolutionizing all that affects the physical and mental wellbeing of the American people. And by doing so, he is going to positively affect the lifespan, weight and mental acuity of potentially millions of Americans.
Amazingly, there are some on the left who seem to be quite disturbed or even outraged by that. Why?
Douglas MacKinnon is a former White House and Pentagon official.
