Lies RFK Jr Told

August 8, 2026·36 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

A government committee is trying to turn Anthony Fauci's Fifth Amendment into a crime, while RFK Jr. keeps selling vaccine fear with claims that fall apart under basic scrutiny. If you care about public health, scientific honesty, or what happens when politics starts prosecuting doctors, this one will make your blood boil. Dr. Kaveh Hoda reacts to the latest Fauci hearing, where Rand Paul and Senate Republicans push a contempt referral after Fauci refuses a partisan setup and invokes his constitutional rights. Kaveh breaks down how Tulsi Gabbard's lab leak document dump fuels the narrative, why the pardon fight is legally shaky, and why this feels less like oversight and more like a political trap.Then the episode turns to RFK Jr.'s CNN interview with Dana Bash, and the claims get even wilder. You'll hear why his arguments about Lyme disease, RSV, measles, ICU capacity, Tylenol, autism, and vaccine schedules don't hold up, plus a clear explanation of what gain-of-function research actually is and why it keeps getting weaponized in public debate.
