Fox News host Jesse Watters is coming to the defense of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who was mocked on social media Monday after swimming in the sewage-filled waters of Rock Creek in Washington, D.C., with his grandkids.
Watters claimed during a panel discussion Tuesday on “The Five” that the water “looks clean” in the photos Kennedy shared on social media. His co-hosts agreed.
“RFK Jr. is testing his immunity this weekend by jumping into a sewage-filled creek in Washington, D.C., deemed unsafe due to its high levels of bacteria,” said Marie Harf. “But RFK, who’s allegedly already survived a brain worm, clearly isn’t worried.”
She asked her co-host Katie Pavlich: “Katie, I think he also took his grandkids in with him?”
Pavlich replied, “Hey, it’s good for your immune system. I myself have swam in the Potomac.”
