This is the uncle you want to have a beer with.
According to his sister Kerry Kennedy, back in the day around 2000, during a family birthday party for one of her daughters, a non-venomous snake showed up in the garden.
Naturally, Kerry called her brother, RFK Jr., and he rolled up like a boss, grabbed the snake bare-handed while holding his infant son, showed it off to the wide-eyed kids, tossed it into a pillowcase along with a vole (for effect), and then...
He yeeted the snake straight into the swimming pool packed with children.
This is at least the story that Kerry told.
And why is she telling us this?
Well...
Kerry, who has been critical of her brother's role as Health and Human Services Secretary, said the anecdote shows he is unfit for the position.
'This is somebody who, on the one hand, has a fascination with nature, but on the other hand has, you know, a lack of judgment when it comes to the safety and care of children,' she said.
'Is this the person who you want running HHS who's got this lack of judgment when it comes to health and safety?'
As opposed to our other health officials in recent years? 👇
I'm sorry, but the attempt to make RFK Jr. seem uncool is one of the most hilarious stories I've ever heard. Something only the wildest and most American uncle in the world would do.
If you missed it, RFK Jr. caught a blue racer on Dr. Oz's patio just a few weeks ago:
Just imagine how many times this story has been told:
"Remember that time when Uncle Bobby let that snake into the pool and we all freaked out and Johnny pooped in the pool?"
"That was awesome!"
This wasn't some sterile, helicopter-parented playdate with foam noodles and certified lifeguards. This was life, baby. Real life. A man teaching the next generation that snakes are cool, not something to run screaming from while calling the authorities.
Leftists, you go right ahead and paint this as you'd like. It's Pride Month, so of course you'll be gay on this story.
