Shirtless RFK Jr. delivers a scathing critique of a Twinkie in a strange AI video
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. shared a bizarre AI-generated video of himself shirtless and wrestling a Twinkie — as the Health and Human Services Secretary continues to push his “Make America Healthy Again” movement.
Trump administration officials have a penchant for sharing AI-generated videos to further their agenda, and Kennedy is no exception, posting the video, captioned “MAHAMania: Snack Down,” set to Limp Bizkit’s song “Rollin’,” on X on Sunday.
In the clip, the AI-generated Kennedy is shirtless and wrestling a man in a Twinkie costume who is holding a sign that reads: “I [heart] Junk Food.”
The health secretary repeatedly kicks and slams the Twinkie to the ground before he is declared the victor, with the words “Eat Real Food” playing over the screen.
肯尼迪已经加大了他推广所谓“MAHA”运动的努力,通过各种真正古怪的行为,包括在牛仔裤里锻炼和分享他与音乐家 Kid Rock 一起锻炼的视频。

自从上任以来,肯尼迪还对超加工食品发动了积极的运动,他声称这些食品正在毒害美国人。
However, during his confirmation hearing, Kennedy told lawmakers he wouldn’t be coming after anyone’s Big Macs or Twinkies in the role — he just wants Americans to be aware of what they’re eating.
“We need to … deploy NIH and FDA to doing the research to understand the relationship between these different food additives and chronic disease, so that Americans understand it and make sure that Americans are aware,” he said at the time. “But I don’t want to take food away from anybody. If you like … a McDonald’s cheeseburger, Diet Coke, which my boss loves, you should be able to get them.”
“If you want to eat Hostess Twinkies, you should be able to do that, but you should know what the impacts are on your family and on your health,” he added.

虽然肯尼迪似乎将重点放在美国人的营养上,但其他公共卫生方面似乎有所退化。
截至 2026 年 3 月,在全国 31 个州报告了麻疹,包括在南卡罗来纳州的大规模爆发,在那里报告了超过 1,000 例病例,主要发生在未接种疫苗的儿童中。 这是自疾病控制与预防中心宣布麻疹被根除超过 25 年以来的最大爆发。
随着越来越多的儿童不接种疫苗,包括对疫苗持怀疑态度的肯尼迪,以及其他特朗普政府官员,他们对已建立的疫苗的安全性提出了质疑,并播撒了怀疑。
尽管他持怀疑态度,肯尼迪已支持儿童接种麻疹-风疹-腮腺炎疫苗, 尽管他此前曾发表“误导性”的关于疫苗有效性的说法,据非营利组织FactCheck.org.

Kennedy also said last April that he would be testing unproven treatments for measles, including cod liver oil.
“Good nutrition remains a best defense against most chronic and infectious illnesses,” he said.
Kennedy praised the work of a doctor who had been known for discussing the danger of vaccines. In May, the secretary even claimed that the vaccine was made with “aborted fetus debris.”
The inaccurate and misleading statements about the vaccines, including a false link to autism, spread at the height of a deadly measles outbreak last August, according to a KFF Health poll.
