Add another bizarre chapter to the Robert F. Kennedy Jr. vs. The Animal Kingdom book. The Health and Human Services secretary showed he is also a full-blown snake handler on Tuesday when he posted a video of himself wrangling two black racers from the patio at Dr. Mehmet Oz’s house — as his wife Cheryl Hines anxiously watched.

“You are nuts!” Hines told RFK Jr.

He just smiled and proudly showed off his catches for the camera; it took him 8 seconds to grab both snakes, which were cornered on a patio. The snakes then got restless and started jumping around as he dangled them, and one of the snakes bit him on the finger.

“Honey, honey, let it go,” the “Curb Your Enthusiasm”star pleaded, right as the snake took a bite. “Oh my God!… Bobby, Bobby, please!”. RFK Jr. looked at his finger but didn’t appear to be fazed by it.

1. How are the snakes?

[efhmc]

7. Poor things.

[Jerry2144]

8. I don't think there's an anti-venom that could save the snakes

From his toxicity

[Roy Rolling]

35. Evidence

The thoughts and prayers are working. I like to envision a Supreme Being who has real solutions, is ruthless, and has a sense of humor.

Be careful what you wish for, MAGAts.

[dweller]

2. Bring on

The Mambas


😃



✌🏻

[BaronChocula]

16. Hell, release the Kraken!

That should do the trick.

[The Madcap]

3. Maybe it gets infected.

Or did he put ivermectin on it?

[BootinUp]

4. Lightning fast! lol

[Journeyman]

5. Isn't he supposed to be at a Cabinet meeting, kissing Trump's ginormous ass? . . .

[timms139]

6. Even usually

calm black snakes hate him .

[SpankMe]

9. Schmuck thinks he's Steve Irwin

Wouldn't it just suck if a poisonous snake mismarked as something harmless showed up in his bathroom? I'd love to see a King Cobra shaped like a kitten lay in to the man's sack.

[enough]

10. What an ass.

[Captain Zero]

12. If they bit him in the throat.

Would it fix his fucking voice?

[niyad]

32. He does have a condition called spasmodic dysphonia.

[eppur_se_muova]

11. He's welcome to come down here and try that with a couple of our local water mocassins (cottonmouths).

Or -- what the heck -- copperheads.

[lastlib]

19. Have you got any coral snakes he could try?

Asking for a friend........

[eppur_se_muova]

22. Try FL. nt

[Marcuse]

13. Breaking News: The snakes have been infected with brain worms. Film at 11.

The veterinarians have started. GoFundMe page for the cost of treatment.

[rpannier]

26. I'd donate

[LearnedHand]

14. Hoping the snakes' fangs are extra germy

Given he doesn’t wash his hands this might introduce some nasty stuff.

[lastlib]

18. I'm told that snakes don't brush their teeth very often.......

...or gargle. So they'll be pretty nasty after chowing down on a few mice. Still, I hope they can save the snakes..... No such hope for Dr. Brainworm.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

24. Blessed Mother of Bacterial Infections don't fail us now!

[Maraya1969]

43. He said he doesn't wash his hands???

[Javaman]

15. His brain is broken and half eaten away nt

[Grins]

17. Bit him? That poor snake.

Hope the snake survives…

[cab67]

20. Shame they were black racers.

I can think of other species that could have been more helpful.

[rpannier]

25. Black Mamba comes to mind

[FoxNewsSucks]

21. Why couldn't they have been diamondbacks?????

[rpannier]

23. Pity

Was hoping he'd be a Darwin Winner

[MLAA]

27. I only saw one snake in the video!

[littlemissmartypants]

31. Zing!

[purr-rat beauty]

45. I ssssssssssee what you dd there

[MLAA]

56. Ssssssssoooo nice of you to note-hisssss

[yorkster]

28. Next up - Bobby the K speaks in tongues.

I thought we'd see snakes first with the blonde White House religion lady.

[AverageOldGuy]

29. Did the snakes die from the bites?

[3Hotdogs]

30. I wish they were Garter snakes. When picked up, they wiggle. Then they bite. If that doesn't work,

they piss on you..... and the piss stinks.

[Norrrm]

33. Bring out the snakes

Traveling preacher goes around back country churches picking up a couple of bucks from the collection plate and a meal. After the service, they invite him for supper of course and he gladly accepts. Then they invite him for a little more of their services. In the back room they bring out the snakes. He's not real keen on the snakes so he asks: where's the back door?... Ain't got one... Reckon where they want one?

[niyad]

34. The quick google search that I did said they hate to be handled, and bite,

and exude a foul-smelling musk when agitated.

[IcyPeas]

37. "exude a foul-smelling musk"

First name Elon?

[niyad]

38. That was certainly my first thought.

[NoRethugFriends]

36. Cheryl Hines is as dumb as he is

[Akakoji]

39. They're non-venomous snakes but they eat toads, birds, eggs, rodents

They just dislike being handled. When they are, they shit nasty smelling crap that RFKJr probably didn't even notice.

[Jack Valentino]

40. WHERE's all the good Rattlesnakes when we need one ???

He should stick one or two into Trump's bed,
and tell him they are 13-year-old girls!!!!

[C Moon]

41. He's not afraid snake bites because he's handled them for years for their oil.

[colorado_ufo]

42. Good one!

[C Moon]

44. Thanks! :)

[BumRushDaShow]

46. And this happened at one of Dr. Oz's 9 mansions, Oz being a fellow oil salesman

Probably property #2 in the below -

[hatrack]

47. Jesus . . . .his taste is almost as bad as Trump's . . .

[BumRushDaShow]

50. Birds of a feather...

[jmowreader]

48. Unfortunately, black racers are not venomous

[Vinca]

49. Shame they weren't cobras.

[Bengus81]

51. No Cheryl...you're the one who is nuts

[progressoid]

55. She's lost a lot of friends due to "standing by her man"

[GCG]

52. He should go to Arizona

Find a couple of older Diamond Back rattle snakes...and then try that trick!!!

[Rebl2]

53. He

Thinks it makes him look like “real” man. It does not. It makes him look like a foolish man.

[sakabatou]

54. What? He didn't take essential oils for the bites?
