Sen. Bill Cassidy made clear that he doesn’t approve of Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s vaccine policy Thursday by praising the president who nominated him.
“I believe that President Trump deserved a Nobel Prize for Operation Warp Speed,” Cassidy told Kennedy during his hearing before the Senate Finance Committee, referring to the first Trump administration’s initiative that developed a COVID-19 vaccine in record time. “We saved millions of lives.”
Kennedy, in a sign of the limits of his ability to criticize the president, agreed.
