Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is once again attacking President Donald Trump — this time demanding that Trump fire Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The uproar comes after Kennedy removed CDC Director Susan Monarez, triggering a wave of resignations and even protests outside CDC headquarters in Atlanta.
Schumer Escalates War on Trump and RFK Jr.
In a heated statement, Schumer blasted the president’s choice:
“Donald Trump knew Robert F. Kennedy Jr. would be a disastrous pick to lead health care in America and he nominated him anyway. Donald Trump made this mistake and now he must fire RFK Jr. immediately.”
Democrats opposed Kennedy’s confirmation from the start, but Trump pushed ahead, putting Kennedy in place to challenge the entrenched health bureaucracy.
Democrats Fear the End of Big Pharma’s Grip
Schumer accused Kennedy of spreading “conspiracy-based attacks on science,” claiming Americans are “in greater danger every day” he remains in office.
But Kennedy’s real “crime” in the eyes of Democrats is his willingness to confront Big Pharma and the CDC establishment. He clashed with Monarez over COVID-19 vaccine approvals — a fight that exposed deep divisions inside the agency.
Monarez’s lawyers allege she was fired for refusing to follow “reckless directives,” while Kennedy insists the CDC is broken and needs bold reforms.
“The agency is in trouble, and we need to fix it,” Kennedy said on Fox News. “Some people simply should not be working there anymore.”
Schumer Plays Politics With Public Health
Schumer even blamed Kennedy for the worst measles outbreak in 30 years, ignoring decades of CDC failures and misplaced priorities.
Instead of fixing what’s broken, Democrats are more interested in shielding unelected bureaucrats and attacking Trump’s reform agenda.
Trump and RFK Jr. Take On the Health Bureaucracy
While Schumer calls for firings, President Trump and RFK Jr. are working to bring accountability, transparency, and health freedom back to the American people.
For decades, Washington insiders and career bureaucrats have mismanaged public health. Trump and Kennedy are now pulling back the curtain — and the political class is terrified.
Bottom Line
This fight isn’t about “science.” It’s about who controls America’s health system: unelected elites in Washington or leaders willing to stand up to the establishment.
Schumer’s demand is just the latest example of Democrats putting politics ahead of the people. But President Trump and RFK Jr. aren’t backing down.
❓ Do you support Trump and RFK Jr. taking on the health bureaucracy — or do you side with Schumer and the Democrats protecting the failed CDC system?
