US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is at it again, this time appearing in a bizarre clip with American musician Kid Rock.
RFK Jr. appeared in a video to promote the Make America Healthy Again initiative, or MAHA, and in the unusual new video for the campaign he jumps into a pool in jeans, raising eyebrows across social media.
In the video, the 72-year-old Health Secretary and the 55-year-old rocker from Detroit are seen working out shirtless and sipping whole milk whilst lounging in a hot tub.
Kennedy shared the video and captioned it “I've teamed up with @KidRock to deliver two simple messages to the American people: GET ACTIVE + EAT REAL FOOD”.
Given its awkward nature, some users on social media were convinced the footage must be AI-generated,
One viewer even remarked: “It's… not … A.I. this time. WOW”.
This isn’t the first time that the controversial health secretary has raised eyebrows as he recently confessed to past drug use and snorting cocaine “off toilet seats”.
The head of US government’s health policy is a controversial figure as for the past 20 years, he has promoted vaccine misinformation and public-health conspiracy theories.
Others include the chemtrail conspiracy theory, HIV/AIDS denialism, and the scientifically disproved claim of a causal link between vaccines and autism.
