Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s confirmation hearing for the position of Health and Human Services Secretary sparked significant discussion on social media, with numerous conservatives voicing their support. Figures like Charlie Kirk, Amy Kremer, and former Rep. Scott Taylor praised Kennedy's performance, using platforms like X (formerly Twitter) to express their approval and urge for his confirmation.

Kennedy's hearing, held before the Senate Finance Committee, also drew attention for his exchange with Montana Senator Steve Daines, where he pledged to collaborate with farmers before enacting policies that could affect their livelihoods. This commitment resonated with many, further solidifying his support base.

Conservative commentator Benny Johnson highlighted the positive reaction in the hearing room, reporting applause following the conclusion of Kennedy's testimony. Other prominent voices, including former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines, also lauded Kennedy's performance and criticized Democratic senators, accusing them of employing a "dishonest narrative" against him. Gaines further called for Kennedy's confirmation.

During the hearing, Kennedy addressed concerns regarding his stance on vaccines, reiterating that he is not "anti-vaccine" and challenging criticisms based on his past comments. He emphasized that he had clarified his position multiple times on national television. Democratic senators, however, continued to scrutinize his previous remarks about COVID-19 vaccines and other vaccinations.

Kennedy's confirmation process continues with a subsequent hearing scheduled before the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee. This second hearing is primarily procedural, as the final vote on his confirmation rests with the Senate Finance Committee. Given the Republican majority in the Senate, Kennedy's confirmation appears likely unless a significant number of GOP senators vote against him.
