Brain Worm Revelation: RFK Jr.'s Startling Health Admission Amid Presidential Bid
Discover RFK Jr.'s startling health admission as he continues his bid for presidency. Insights on his brain worm revelation.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an anti-vaccine activist and independent presidential candidate, has revealed that a worm ate part of his brain and then died inside his head. The bizarre admission was made during a deposition held as part of his 2012 divorce proceeding, according to The New York Times.
Kennedy's Health Concerns and Brain Worm Revelation
In 2010, Kennedy began experiencing cognitive problems, including short-term and long-term memory loss, not long after the death of his uncle, Massachusetts Senator Edward Kennedy, from brain cancer. Initially, Kennedy feared he had a brain tumor, and several doctors noticed a dark spot on his brain scans, concluding that he had a tumor.
However, a doctor at New York-Presbyterian Hospital informed Kennedy that the dark spot on his brain scans was actually caused by a worm that had eaten a portion of his brain and then died. Kennedy also testified in the deposition that he has suffered from mercury poisoning, which he attributes to eating too many tuna fish sandwiches, causing neurological issues.
The revelation of Kennedy’s brain being partially eaten by a worm raises questions about his health, especially as the 70-year-old environmental lawyer and presidential hopeful has used his relative youth compared to his rivals, President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, to argue that he is healthier and fitter to run the country.
Kennedy's Campaign and Controversial Views
Kennedy, who initially ran in the Democratic primary before switching to an independent campaign, is known for his conspiracy theories about vaccination, sometimes laced with antisemitic claims about diseases being “ethnically targeted” to spare Jews. He has also praised the January 6 defendants and promoted false claims that none of them were armed during their attack on the Capitol.
Although Kennedy hails from the famous Kennedy dynasty, the rest of his family broadly supports Biden over him. Trump allies had originally hoped Kennedy could be a spoiler to help them win battleground states; however, some are now concerned he could actually pull more votes from Trump than from Biden.
Potential Impact on the Presidential Race
The impact of Kennedy’s candidacy on the presidential race remains unclear. Current polls are inconclusive on which candidate, Biden or Trump, loses more votes to him. As the campaign progresses, it will be important to monitor how Kennedy’s health revelations and controversial views affect his support and influence on the election outcome.
