Piers Morgan Interrogates RFK Jr. About the Worm Found in His Brain: ‘There Is No Remaining Worm in Your Brain?’
Piers Morgan interrogated independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy about the worm found in his brain on Thursday.
During an interview with Kennedy on Piers Morgan Uncensored, Morgan asked, “You got everyone going with this extraordinary revelation about the worm in your brain. Did you expect the reaction that you got to that? And what is the lasting consequence of that health issue you had?”
Kennedy replied, “Well, first of all, Piers, are you under the impression that I announced that to the world?”
“I don’t think you did explicitly, no,” answered Morgan.
“No, I didn’t,” said Kennedy. “It was a short discussion in a deposition almost fifteen years ago in my divorce, and the New York Times dug that up and, you know, announced it as if it was recent news.”
He continued:
It was something I discovered. It’s interesting. It had no impact on my cognitive capacity. I did have at that time– I was having brain fog and I was having some memory retrieval issues that I noticed, nobody else noticed, and I ended up getting treated for that, and that was one of the things they discovered in the course of my treatment, but it wasn’t something that was any kind of a threat to me.
Kennedy added that he had since learned “that a billion people in the world have that particular parasite,” prompting Morgan to reply, “Really?!”
“Yeah, it’s very widespread,” said Kennedy:
My doctor said there is two places I could have gotten it. One was in India, where I traveled extensively, and the other was in the hog industry, because I had been litigating against factory farms in North Carolina and Utah around the country and apparently this parasite is very, very common among people who are in that industry. So I don’t know where it came from but, you know, whatever it was, the one that was inside of my brain died on its own, thank God.
Morgan pressed, “So, to reassure potential voters, there is no remaining worm in your brain?”
Kennedy laughed before replying, “Yeah, thank you very much, Piers, and I’ve said I’m very, very happy to take cognitive tests along with President Trump and President Biden.”
Kennedy claimed in a 2012 deposition that doctors had found a worm in his brain after it “ate a portion of it and then died.”
The story came back to haunt Kennedy last month after it resurfaced, resulting in concern, ridicule, and a sketch on Saturday Night Live.
