Kerry Kennedy hopped on CNN with Erin Burnett to publicly disown her brother Robert F. Kennedy Jr. — again — because apparently doing it once wasn't dramatic enough. The Health and Human Services Secretary, who committed the unforgivable sin of supporting President Trump, got the full family excommunication treatment on live television. And his response? Absolute perfection.
Imagine hating your own brother so much that you go on national television to announce it. Repeatedly. That's not politics — that's Thanksgiving dinner from hell.
Kerry didn't hold back, telling Burnett she was "outraged and disgusted by my brother's gaudy and obscene embrace of Donald Trump." She then declared, "I completely get out and separate and dissociate myself from Robert Kennedy Jr." Three verbs to say the same thing. When you're that mad, one synonym just won't cut it.
But here's where it gets truly entertaining. Kerry apparently spent part of her CNN appearance recounting some decades-old story about RFK Jr., a snake, and children at a birthday party. Because when you can't win the policy argument, you dig up reptile anecdotes from the Carter administration.
Meanwhile, RFK Jr. — the guy who left the Kennedy plantation, endorsed Trump in 2024, and is now running HHS — responded the way only a man completely unbothered can respond. He posted a photo on Twitter of himself and Kerry as kids with the caption: "With my sister Kerry in 1964 pre TDS."
The man has been dealing with his family's public meltdowns since he left the Democratic Party during his 2024 presidential campaign. When the Kennedys first started their collective tantrum, RFK Jr. said simply, "I understand that they're troubled by my decisions. I love my family." Grace under fire. The establishment Kennedys could learn something.
And let's not forget — this is the same guy who was wrangling black racer snakes on Dr. Mehmet Oz's patio back in late May. The CMS administrator and the HHS Secretary, just casually handling serpents between dismantling the bureaucracy. You literally cannot make this stuff up.
The Kennedy family dynasty used to mean something in Democratic politics. Now it means one brother who's actually doing things in government and a sister who goes on CNN to cry about it. Kerry Kennedy is mad that Bobby left the reservation, and she wants everyone to know it. Every few months. On camera. With feeling.
Here's the thing the establishment Kennedys will never understand: every time Kerry goes on television to trash RFK Jr., his approval with our side goes up another three points. Keep talking, Kerry. You're his best campaign ad, as reported by RedState.
Some families fight over the holidays. The Kennedys do it on CNN. And Bobby keeps winning.
