Shouting match erupts between RFK Jr and Dem lawmaker over his comments about Black children

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. faced a heated confrontation with Rep. Terri Sewell (D-Ala.) during a budget hearing over his 2024 podcast comments suggesting Black children are overmedicated and need to be 'reparented.' Kennedy denied making the remarks, while Sewell and an aide displayed evidence of his statements, leading to a prolonged exchange. An HHS spokesperson later claimed his comments were 'out of context.'
