Former US Ambassador to Australia Caroline Kennedy has urged the US Senate to reject the nomination of her cousin, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., as Donald Trump's health secretary, describing him as a "predator" addicted to power.
In a letter to senators and a video posted online, she criticised his controversial views on vaccines, calling them disqualifying.
She also shared personal experiences from their childhood, alleging that his basement and dorm were centres of drug use.
This plea comes as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is scheduled to appear before the Senate Finance Committee on Wednesday in a bid to have his Health Secretary position confirmed.
