Articles of Impeachment Filed Against RFK Jr. Over Alleged Abuse of Power
On Wednesday, Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.) initiated impeachment proceedings against Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., citing abuse of power and a threat to public health due to the spread of misinformation. Stevens, along with numerous medical and public health organizations, accuse Kennedy of undermining scientific consensus and endangering lives. While the impeachment is unlikely to succeed in the Republican-controlled Congress, it highlights growing concerns within the scientific community regarding Kennedy’s actions. These groups, including the American College of Physicians and the Infectious Disease Society of America, have independently called for his removal.
