Dear John,

Have you ever wondered how Robert F. Kennedy Jr., chairman on leave from Children’s Health Defense (CHD), got involved in America’s public health crisis, and in particular, the epidemic of chronic disease afflicting this country’s children?

In his soon-to-be-released book — “The Real RFK Jr: Trials of a Truth Warrior” — Dick Russell provides an in-depth account of Kennedy’s journey. Based on dozens of interviews with Kennedy and his colleagues, the book, available on June 20, details how Kennedy’s remarkable life changed after mothers of children with neurodevelopmental disorders approached him multiple times at speaking engagements and urged him to look into vaccine-induced mercury toxicity.

Unable to ignore these dedicated and anguished mothers, Kennedy undertook a comprehensive study of relevant peer-reviewed science — and what he found was evidence of a shocking cover-up by the pharmaceutical industry: The science clearly indicated that thimerosal, a mercury-based vaccine preservative, was causing an unprecedented epidemic of neuroimmune damage to children nationwide. These injuries occurred after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) added numerous mercury-containing vaccines to the childhood vaccination schedule — and the agency began adding those vaccines after Congress, in 1986, passed a law granting vaccine manufacturers immunity from liability for injuries and deaths from their products.

The number of children diagnosed with autism began to explode. The rise, which coincided with the number of vaccines added to the schedule, continues unabated — going from one in 10,000 in RFK Jr’s generation to one in every 36 children in 2023.

“The Real RFK Jr.” explains how Kennedy’s commitment to calling out corruption among industry and public health officials intensified throughout the decade before the COVID-19 pandemic descended upon the world.

His experiences uniquely qualified him to delineate the disastrous consequences of industry and government collusion in his 2021 book, “The Real Anthony Fauci.” Readers of Russell’s new book will get a behind-the-scenes look at how, despite a total media blackout, Kennedy’s Fauci exposé came to sell over a million copies worldwide.

Dick Russell has written the most enlightening portrait ever published about the man who has moved beyond being a champion of the environment to the country’s most fearless advocate for salvaging American democracy. It contains excerpts from Kennedy’s private journals reflecting on the years of anguish he experienced after the assassinations of his uncle and his father, revealing how he managed not only to survive but to become a man of immense conviction, compassion, and courage.

Order your copy today, and help us spread the word to friends, family members and colleagues about this groundbreaking look at the man who founded CHD, helped galvanize the health freedom movement and is, to many, the staunchest defender of democracy in modern history.

With thanks,

The Team at Children’s Health Defense
