Environmental lawyer and politician Robert Francis Kennedy Jr. is the nephew of former US president John F. Kennedy. After announcing his plans to earn the Democratic nomination for the presidency, his popularity skyrocketed. In a recent video post on Twitter, RFK Jr. went viral for his jacked physique while performing pushups shirtless at the iconic Gold’s Gym in Venice Beach, CA.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was admitted to the New York Bar in 1985 after he got promoted to senior attorney at Riverkeeper. He specializes in environmental law and has been a part of several high-profile cases. He promotes environmental justice and protection through lobbying and public activism.
Kennedy joined forces with environmental lawyer Kevin Madonna to found a law firm, called Kennedy & Madonna, LLP, for helping plaintiffs against polluters in 2005. The firm rose to prominence for litigating on behalf of the Ramapough Mountain Indian Tribe against the Ford Motor Company, which was featured in the HBO documentary Mann v. Ford in 2010.
Having worked together on the case against SoCalGas company after the Aliso Canyon gas leak, RFK Jr. teamed up with Morgan & Morgan law firm in 2016. The group sued Monsanto on behalf of plaintiffs affected by exposure to the company’s glyphosate-based herbicide called Roundup. They followed up with a class action lawsuit against Monsanto and another against Columbia Gas of Massachusetts in Sep. 2018.
Over the last two years, Kennedy became notorious for his contrarian views. He emerged as a leading force against public health regulation policies that arose after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. He’s criticized vaccine mandates and called for a reform in the pharmaceutical industry.
RFK Jr. hinted at a potential run for president in 2024 three months ago. He revealed his wife was no longer against the idea and filed his candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination a month later. His appearance on the massively popular Joe Rogan Experience podcast sparked a heated debate about the effectiveness of COVID vaccines. Pediatrician Peter Hotez, who designed a COVID-19 vaccine, dismissed Kennedy’s views as dangerous. Then, Kennedy’s social media presence expanded after he was seen looking jacked while performing bench presses shirtless in the sun.
