Republicans have generally asked softer questions of Kennedy on subjects such as rural health care, chronic disease and the food supply while Democrats are hammering him on his controversial comments on vaccines and abortion.

GOP Sen. Roger Marshall provided Kennedy an opportunity to simply share his “Make America Healthy Again” during his round of questioning.

“Something is poisoning the American people,” Kennedy claimed as he lamented the rise in chronic diseases.

Kennedy said the country needs to “fix our supply.”

He’s railed against processed foods, artificial dyes, certain oils used to fry food and more. As he answered Marshall’s question, he criticized the ingredients in McDonald’s foods and in Froot Loops.

“We need to get a handle on as because if we don’t, it’s an existential threat,” Kennedy said.
