‘Are You Pro-Choice?’ Fox News Reporter Peppers RFK Jr. With Tough Questions Ahead of Capitol Hill Meetings

Fox News national correspondent Aishah Hasnie and other reporters peppered Robert F Kennedy Jr. with tough questions as he arrived on Capitol Hill this week to meet with senators ahead of his confirmation hearing to become secretary of Health and Human Services.

“You can see a live look right there. RFK Jr has just walked in and he is walking through the mags right now and getting a security sweeping before he heads inside the Hart Senate Office Building to meet with Senator Rick Scott,” Hasnie began Monday.

“Again, a lot of questions that Republicans have some conservative Republicans about abortion stances and also his views on farming. We’re going to try to throw a question at him right now. Mr. Kennedy. Mr. Kennedy, do you want to revoke any vaccines? Mr. Kennedy, do you want to revoke any vaccines? What do you how do you feel about the vaccines?” Hasnie shouted as other reporters joined in asking questions:

Are you all for the polio vaccine?

Mr. Kennedy, what is your view on abortion?

Do you still believe that childhood autism…

Mr. Kennedy, are you pro-choice?

Mr. Kennedy, what’s your views on American farming? What would you like to change?

Mr. Kennedy, what’s your priority for the first couple of days?

Do you think autism is linked to vaccines? Do you support school mandates for vaccines?

Mr. Kennedy. Are you going to revoke any vaccine?

“Okay, So, Martha, he just. Sorry. I didn’t realize we were so with you. So he. He got a lot of questions from a bunch of us,” Hasnie then said to anchor Martha MacCallum.

“Yeah, exactly. And you know what? I think all of your questions are exactly the questions that are on the minds of these senators. So that was a good warm-up for him to hear what is on everyone’s mind,” MacCallum replied, adding:

And clearly, they made a decision not to answer any questions on the way in, but a good effort because no doubt these senators are going to is going to drill him exactly on that, whether or not he supports the polio vaccine, what he thinks about abortion, I think those are probably the two biggest areas that he may get some pushback on.

“Sounded like, yeah, we’ll have to roll back the tape and watch again. But it sounded like Martha. He said he was all for it when somebody asked him, ‘Are you for the polio vaccine?’ So we might have got an answer already on the polio vaccine,” Hasnie added.

“Yeah, I mean, he has been on the record as saying that what he wants to do is to evaluate vaccines, to really stress test them and make sure that we know all the implications for different children and adults that could exist for some of these vaccines. And to make perhaps, you know, one of the questions I would have is, would you be open? Do you want to make them optional rather than required for children, for schools? And there will be pushback on that as well. But no doubt this is going to be a big focus of the questions of those senators,” MacCallum concluded.
