Good morning, everyone. Welcome to the Don Lemon show. This is our hot topic segment, and we're so glad that you're here this morning.

And there you see you're looking at from now the Senate. They are about to hold the first confirmation

hearing for RFK Jr. And you see the folks getting ready there. He arrived this morning to this

hearing with applause from the floor.

And so we're going to be going through it live here on Hot Topics.

It is our hot topic of the day.

A couple of different feeds for you here.

We came on just a little bit early, so bear with us because he got there right on time or a little bit early, but there

they are taking photographs of the hearing of the nomination of RFK Jr. of California to be

the Secretary of Health and Human Services. The United States Senate Committee hearing, and that's

the channel right there. Committee on Finance is where he is.

That's a different committee. That's the one that he's on now. Okay, so we're going to be

paying attention to the hearing. The question is, is he going to be approved or not as we continue?

I think we need to look at the photographs of him there if we can, just continue to look at it. Yeah.

Is he going to be approved or not there's been

some controversy around him obviously surrounding vaccinations apparent anti-vax stance um

even his own niece yesterday just yesterday releasing a letter or reading of writing a letter and then reading it in front of a camera and posting it on social media, saying that he was not qualified.

Basically, Caroline Kennedy, who is a daughter of John Kennedy, John F. Kennedy, saying that he's a predator.

Those are her words, not mine.

And so today, the son of Robert Kennedy,

the great Robert Kennedy, is facing off in the Senate. He's on the hot seat. And we'll see what happens. I think this is going to be a pretty contentious one.

And that's why we're bringing it to you.
