I’ve covered a lot on RFK Jr. and his policies. In an effort to better understand him I wrote an article on his childhood and how his family trauma may or may not inform him and his policies and in that process I discussed briefly some of his controversial past, but it was never a focus per se on his qualifications. I share this to say I know about the guy. In the distant past, as a lover and recreational user of the Hudson River, I admired him. But even with this knowledge, I was shocked last week as learned more and more about his personal behaviors and was gob smacked to learn he settled a sexual harassment suit for close to a million dollars. This is my 4th installment on the personal lives of Trump’s cabinet members and so far it is a 4 out of 4, with each member so far riddled with scandals of bribes, sex abuse and six figure settlements.
