The long-simmering tensions within the Kennedy family have erupted into public view, with Caroline Kennedy launching a sharp rebuke against her cousin, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. In a letter submitted to a Senate subcommittee, the daughter of former President John F. Kennedy reportedly described RFK Jr. as a "predator" who is exploiting the family's legacy for personal gain.
According to reports, the letter accuses RFK Jr. of engaging in manipulative and harmful behavior by promoting anti-vaccine propaganda. The Economic Times details these explosive remarks, noting that Caroline Kennedy’s condemnation came in the context of her cousin's political activities and his nomination for a potential government post. The submission of the letter appears timed with his confirmation hearings, adding a layer of political and familial drama to the proceedings.
This is not the first time Caroline Kennedy has publicly distanced herself from her cousin's controversial stances. Speaking at the National Press Club in Canberra, Australia, the U.S. Ambassador stated that her family is united in its support for the public health sector. During that event, she labeled her cousin's health views as 'dangerous' and contrary to the principles valued by the wider Kennedy family and the majority of Americans, underscoring a clear and unified opposition to his positions.
The public falling-out highlights a fracture that has been growing for years. This division has been palpable even in private family settings. An inside look at the Kennedy family's rift over RFK Jr. and Trump reveals that tensions were evident at family gatherings, where many relatives were reportedly unwilling to engage with him. These deep-seated disagreements have now moved from private disputes to a public schism, challenging the unified image of one of America's most famous political dynasties.
