Political News in April of 2026.
Robert Kennedy Jr. has a contentious health hearing. He had a rare rebuke from a Republican lawmaker. Robert Kennedy Jr. defended Trump's handling of the agency. Robert Kennedy Jr. is the Health and Human Services Secretary. He testified to the House Ways and Means Committee on Capitol Hill on April 16, 2026. Trump and RFK Jr. made the false claim that autism was caused by women taking Tylenol while pregnant. Trump has cut the HHS budget, and RFK Jr. have had a massively chaotic leadership. Robert Kennedy Jr. defended his gutting of HHS agencies including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This comes after the massive DOGE cuts to legitimate health programs and staff. This goes on while we have an epidemic of measles outbreaks all across America. The hatred of legitimate vaccinations is also fueling the measles outbreaks too. Kennedy Jr. wants to end pro-vaccine campaigns. Robert Kennedy Jr. made the racist remark that black boys who take antidepressants must be send to wellness farms where they could be "reparented." RFK Jr. wants to limit the recommendation of the hepatitis B vaccine for newborns. He falsely claims that the disease posed no threat to babies whose mothers were not infected (and lied saying that the vaccines had not been tested for safety). Robert Kennedy Jr. is not his father. His father fought for civil rights, but Robert Kennedy Jr. supports Trump who wants to end DEI programs and whitewash black museums. His father supported investments in vaccination, but he wants skepticism to reign supreme. His father opposed the Vietnam War, but he supports Trump who promotes unjust wars. We need health protections and environmental justice in our society.
There are many news today. New York state Attorney General Letitia James secured $250,000 from a Brooklyn furniture store for cheating consumers. She wants to sue the Trump administration over voting rights issues. Democratic Representative Sherman from California wants a ban of an exports of oil and gasoline. This has banned from 1975 to 2015. Yet, Trump rejects a ban, because he wants his Big Oil supporters to ship crude to highest price markets overseas. The continued blockade of the Strait of Hormuz will cause more economic harm to Americans. Trump made a choice to attack Iran, and that attack has increased the price of gas prices. Now, Americans are paying money for this war. When Trump is out of office by January 2029, we have to promote policies to rebuild America. Hungary's incoming Prime Minister Peter Magyar said that it will drop its opposition to the EU's 90 million euros loan to Ukraine. We reject the concept of an oligarchy that uses financial globalization and parasitical speculation. We must have a regulated and dirigistic economy that has worked wonders for American society.
There has been people thinking about Trump's mental and emotional state. Many in the media aren't reporting on this issue. Trump said that drug prices will go down 400% or 600% as prices can't go down more than 100% as math doesn't work like that. Many psychologists and scholars found his statements. Trump claiming that the Epstein files was a hoax when these files were extremely real. Epstein was Trump's close friend. There is a video of him not knowing who Hakeem Jeffries is after having a meeting with him. Trump's White House website has deleted some of Trump's statements. The loss of impulse control, unnecessary anger, paranoia, and other symptoms are symptoms of dementia. His behavior is part of his second term. Trump has pressured TV networks members who use comedy against him. His cabinet can invoke the 25th Amendment to remove Trump from office. This reality is sad, but we have to show the truth regardless.
The Justice Department wants to toss conspiracy convictions for the January 6th terrorists. This act is not only wrong. It's treason. The DOJ involved in this action are traitors to America, because the January 6th terrorists not only invaded the U.S. Capitol like a group of unhinged thugs. Their goal was to overthrow the American government using violence, lies, racism, and bigotry. Many of these terrorists were members of the reactionary Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys. These groups are known for violence against protesters and supporting Trump in a disturbing fashion. The Justice Department wanted a federal appeals court to throw out hte seditious conspiracy convictions of the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers, who were sentenced to prison terms for leading terrorists to attack officers and tried to attack Congressional leaders. Trump commuted hte prison sentences of many several Proud Boys and Oath Keepers. The previous Biden administration upheld convictions of these thuggish criminals. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro is a disgrace to whitewash the real history of January 6th, because she follows conservativism unconditionally instead of morality and justice for all. January 6th, 2021, was a date that will live in infamy when MAGA terrorists waved neo-Nazi and Confederate flags on Capitol grounds, stole property, destroyed windows, tried to hang former Vice President Mike Pence, and called black officers the n word. God doesn't condone the acts of cowardly insurrectionists and traitors to America. Former Metropolitan Police Officer Michael Fanone, who was dragged the January 6th cowards told the truth that, "I would remind Americans that these were traitors to our country...They planed, indited, and carried out an insurrection."
It is very important to recognize how Ancestry.com helped many human beings to find their family tree. Their website helped me to find out how people related to the Claud family (like Israel Claud, Gwendolyn Gurley, Kyle Claud, Rosa Barnes, etc.) are related to me genetically. Their DNA results prove that I'm related to many people of the Claud family, the Beech family, the Spencer family, the Tillery family, and other families genetically and genealogically. This reality shows many lessons about life. One lesson is to take risks in life. Life will never be all comfortable all of the time. Taking risk and being able to overcome challenges strengthens our emotions, builds our minds, and grows our empathy. We know about the valuable lesson of treating people right. History and experience dictate to us that being humble, having strength (real strength is not about embracing nefarious brutality but competent determination, establishing boundaries, standing up for yourself and others legitimately, and having real principles embraced), and following the truth cause manifold blessings in anyone's life. Another lesson is that the value of family is priceless. We are all a product for of the miracle of fertilization and being born. We are born with trillions of cells and tons of organs filled with nutrients, amino acids, and other powerful chemicals that fire up our imagination. That is a product of the miracle of life.
