Robert F. Kennedy Jr. did not testify under oath during his September 4, 2025, appearance before the Senate Finance Committee. The committee chairman, Republican Mike Crapo, denied a request from Democratic Senator Ron Wyden to formally swear Kennedy in as a witness.
To be clear, testimony is under oath No oath, no testimony. He was talking, not testifying.
Yep you're right... however, you should try researching the committee chair's decision about RFK, jr ...if you haven't noticed, normal is not now

The richest 100 billionaires in the U.S. have a net worth totaling $3.86 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is collectively worth $4 trillion. Read that back. Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.
In a staggering betrayal of the public trust, the Trump administration failed to protect Americans’ most personal data at the Social Security Administration. Now we’re all exposed. And it’s too late to do a damn thing about it. Op: @jesscraven101.bsky.social
CBS News vs Democracy Docket. I bet you can tell which one bent a knee and paid Trump $16 million and which one stands tall. Support pro-democracy, independent media. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0
Hello everyone! I thought I’d start a 101 on #NOAA for you. It’s a complex agency. To begin, NOAA is in the Department of Commerce. NOAA has six “Line Offices” that have distinct missions. These office are: NWS, OAR, NOS, NESDIS, NMFS, and OMAO. Each line has “programs.”
Thanks to Trump's funding cuts, PBS will lay off 15% of its staff. Trump wants to exert control over the news and information that the public receives – or doesn’t even receive at all. It’s a hallmark of dictatorship.
Welp. Trump is president and the days of Cubans getting favored refugee status are over. They’re being deported.
So, apparently, he did not have to take the oath before his 'testimony' no perjury if you don't swear to tell the truth...

Where are the red Make America Great Again hats out in the fields? You know, the same people who swore immigrants were “taking their jobs.” Keep snatching hard-working folks who are just trying to support their families and don’t be shocked when this becomes the new norm.

Just spoke with my CDC sources. They said RFK Jr. has ordered officials to hide tuberculosis cases, even as three active TB cases were just reported in Maine. He’s also suppressing bird flu reports. Pandemics don’t start with viruses they start with secrecy. RFK Jr. must resign now!
if i had the opportunity to ask a question of anyone in the administration, given this "war in chicago" messaging, i would ask them how many americans the president intends to kill in his war

Trump’s latest move to use military judges in immigration hearings is illegal, of course. But it should wake people up to the fact that the entire process is broken. Trump didn’t break it. He’s just weaponizing what we’ve refused to fix. My latest in @thenation.com
