What, me worry?
Amid his sexting scandal with New York Magazine writer Olivia Nuzzi, spies said Robert F. Kennedy Jr. “seemed great” when he appeared at a Senate roundtable discussion on nutrition in Washington, DC.
Also on the panel were “The Biggest Loser” star Jillian Michaels and controversial “12 Rules for Life” author and psychologist Dr. Jordan B. Peterson.
Kennedy has been seen wearing his wedding ring publicly after news broke of an alleged sexting affair between the married former presidential candidate, 70, and the New York Magazine writer, 31.

He appeared at discussion called, “American Health and Nutrition: A Second Opinion,” led by US Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.).
But despite all the controversy, a spy said of the Kennedy scion, “He seemed great to me!”
The panel also included “The Genius Life” podcaster Max Lugavere, Truemed co-founder Calley Means, HumanCo CEO Jason Karp, “Food Babe” blogger Vani Hari and more.

Said a healthy source, “It was an incredible day — completely no holds barred, calling out corporate capture of our regulatory food bodies and academic institutions by the food and pharmaceutical industries at the expense of American health.”
Kennedy — who could wind up with a cabinet position if Donald Trump wins the election — has been an outspoken critic of ultra-processed food and toxic chemicals as the roots of poor American health.
Newsweek reported that the former candidate recently said when he suspended his campaign: “One hundred and 20 years ago, when somebody was obese, they were sent to the circus… There were literally case reports done about them. Obesity was almost unknown.”

When Kennedy endorsed Donald Trump after he left the presidential race, he said in a public speech, “Don’t you want a president that’s going to make America healthy again?”
He also told Fox News in a recent interview on the food supply, “You can’t trust what’s on the ingredient label and the reason for that is government corruption… The USDA and the FDA has been captured by the industry they’re supposed to regulate.”

RFK Jr. declined to comment when pushed on his “sexting” affair with Nuzzi on Wednesday — after Fox News host Martha MacCallum asked Kennedy, 70, if he had any “regrets” over the steamy message exchange.
“I don’t make comments on it,” the Kennedy scion said in his first public remarks since Nuzzi was placed on leave last week after her mag learned of their relationship.
“I never comment on those kinds of stories. If you want to talk about health or how to end the war in Ukraine or how to end inflation or censorship, [the] surveillance regime, I’m happy to talk,” he said.
