Dark money group that backed RFK Jr. for president opposes HHS confirmation

The Sixteen Thirty Fund, a left-wing dark money network, has been on both sides of President-elect Donald Trump‘s pick to run the Department of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Protect Our Care, with the help of donations from the Sixteen Thirty Fund and others, is raising $1 million toward its “Stop RFK War Room” campaign. One of its ads cites Kennedy’s long history of being skeptical of vaccines, accusing him of spreading “deadly lies” about them. Kennedy’s skepticism of vaccines also led to Meta removing him from Instagram for months. He also had several segments cut from interviews with traditional news outlets when he discussed vaccines.
