HHS confirmation RFK Jr. Tells Senator Andy Kim (D-N.J.) Wireless Radiation Is Dangerous!
Wireless Radiation, 5G, and the Fight for Scientific Truth: RFK Jr. Confronts the Dangers of RF Exposure
Introduction: A Debate That Can No Longer Be Ignored
The dangers of wireless radiation—from Wi-Fi, 5G, and other electromagnetic fields (EMFs)—are no longer a fringe concern. As technology advances and wireless infrastructure expands, a growing body of scientific evidence suggests that RF radiation is a serious public health risk.
During a Senate hearing, Senator Andy Kim (D-N.J.) questioned Robert F. Kennedy Jr. about his past statements on Wi-Fi radiation, 5G, and electromagnetic radiation’s effects on DNA. Kennedy, known for his activism in environmental and public health issues, stood firm on his position, citing scientific studies linking RF exposure to cancer, DNA damage, and neurological disorders.
The issue is not just about Kennedy’s views—it’s about the mounting evidence and the systemic failures of government agencies to regulate and protect public health from RF radiation.
This article will:
- Break down Kennedy’s statements and the science behind them.
- Examine the legal battle he won against the FCC.
- Explore why regulatory agencies like the FCC and FDA have failed to act.
- Analyze the known health risks of Wi-Fi and 5G radiation.
- Offer a roadmap for action, public awareness, and safer technology.
This is not just about RFK Jr.’s stance—it’s about a global crisis of regulatory negligence and corporate influence over public health policies.
RFK Jr.’s Statements: Breaking Down the Senate Testimony
“Wi-Fi Radiation Does All Kinds of Bad Things, Including Causing Cancer”
When asked whether he still stands by his statement that Wi-Fi radiation is harmful, RFK Jr. responded with an unequivocal yes, pointing out that:
- He won a federal case against the FCC over its failure to update RF safety guidelines.
- There are numerous scientific studies linking RF radiation to DNA damage, cancer, and neurological harm.
“Electromagnetic Radiation Changes DNA”
Kennedy emphasized that RF radiation has been shown to alter DNA, a point long denied by the wireless industry. However, peer-reviewed research—including studies funded by the U.S. government itself—has confirmed:
- Non-ionizing RF radiation can break DNA strands, contrary to the outdated belief that only ionizing radiation (like X-rays) can do so.
- Oxidative stress caused by RF exposure leads to cellular mutations, which can contribute to cancer and other diseases.
“5G is Just as Dangerous”
RFK Jr. extended his concerns to 5G, which introduces higher-frequency radiation, shorter wavelengths, and a denser deployment of small-cell antennas in residential areas.
- 5G operates at higher frequencies than previous technologies, increasing penetration into human tissue.
- The rapid deployment of 5G infrastructure has not been properly studied for long-term biological effects.
Kennedy’s testimony confirms what scientists, public health advocates, and legal experts have been warning for years: we are in the middle of an unregulated health experiment.
RFK Jr. vs. The FCC: How He Won a Landmark Case
The Lawsuit Against the FCC
In 2021, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., along with Children’s Health Defense (CHD) and the Environmental Health Trust (EHT), sued the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for failing to update its RF exposure guidelines.
The Court’s Findings: FCC’s Guidelines Are “Arbitrary and Capricious”
- The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ruled that the FCC had ignored thousands of pages of scientific evidence on RF radiation risks.
- The court found that the FCC had not adequately reviewed research on cancer, DNA damage, neurological effects, and impacts on children.
- The decision labeled the FCC’s stance as “arbitrary and capricious,” meaning it lacked a rational scientific basis.
The FCC’s Outdated Safety Standards
- The FCC’s current RF exposure limits were set in 1996—before smartphones, Wi-Fi, and 5G even existed.
- These limits are based only on thermal effects (tissue heating) and ignore non-thermal biological harm.
- The court ruling forced the FCC to reassess its guidelines, but to this day, no new safety standards have been enacted.
This case proved in court that the FCC has no legitimate scientific basis for its RF safety guidelines—yet nothing has changed.
The Science Behind RF Radiation’s Health Risks
RF Radiation Causes DNA Damage
Contrary to industry claims, numerous studies confirm that non-ionizing radiation from wireless technology can damage DNA.
Key Studies:
- National Toxicology Program (NTP) Study (2018): Found “clear evidence” that RF radiation causes brain and heart tumors in rats.
- Ramazzini Institute Study (2018): Confirmed similar findings in low-level RF exposure, reinforcing that cell towers, Wi-Fi, and smartphones pose cancer risks.
- Henry Lai’s Research (1995, 2004, 2006): Demonstrated that RF radiation caused DNA strand breaks, proving that even non-ionizing radiation can damage genetic material.
Neurological and Developmental Harm
- RF radiation disrupts voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs), causing excessive calcium influx into cells, leading to:
- Neuroinflammation
- Cognitive decline
- ADHD, autism, and behavioral disorders in children
- A Yale study (2012) linked prenatal RF exposure to hyperactivity and memory problems in offspring.
Cancer Risk and Wireless Technology
- The World Health Organization (WHO) classified RF radiation as a Group 2B possible carcinogen in 2011.
- Multiple independent studies have since provided more evidence of cancer risks, especially brain and thyroid tumors.
Why Government Agencies Are Ignoring the Science
The EPA Was Defunded to Stop RF Research
- The EPA originally had the authority to study and regulate RF radiation under Public Law 90-602.
- In the early 1990s, telecom lobbyists pressured Congress to defund the EPA’s non-ionizing radiation research.
- As a result, the FCC took control of RF exposure guidelines, despite having no health expertise.
The FCC Is Controlled by the Telecom Industry
- The FCC operates as a captured agency, run by former telecom executives who prioritize industry profits over public health.
- Former FCC Chair Tom Wheeler was a telecom lobbyist before taking office.
- The FCC relies on outdated industry-funded research to justify its safety standards.
The FDA Is Failing to Follow the Law
- Under Public Law 90-602, the FDA is legally required to study RF radiation risks, yet it has done nothing.
- The National Toxicology Program (NTP) shut down its RF radiation research after confirming cancer risks—another example of industry interference.
What Needs to Happen Next: A Call to Action
Enforce Public Law 90-602
- The law requires continuous RF research—Congress must enforce it.
- Funding must be restored to the EPA or another independent agency to study RF radiation.
Overhaul RF Safety Standards
- The FCC must be stripped of its role in setting health-based exposure limits.
- New safety standards must include non-thermal biological effects, based on independent research.
Repeal Section 704 of the Telecom Act
- Communities must regain the right to reject cell towers based on health concerns.
- The 10th and 1st Amendments must be restored to allow public debate on RF safety.
Public Awareness and Legal Pressure
- Push for more lawsuits challenging the FCC’s inaction.
- Educate policymakers and demand accountability for the telecom industry’s deception.
Final Thoughts: The Truth Can No Longer Be Suppressed
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s testimony is just the latest battle in a long war against industry corruption and government negligence.
The science is clear: RF radiation poses serious health risks, and regulatory agencies have failed to act.
It’s time to demand accountability—not just from the FCC, but from Congress, the FDA, and the telecom industry that has knowingly put public health at risk for profit.
We cannot afford to wait. The time to act is now.
#FollowTheLaw
#RepealSection704
#EnforcePublicLaw90-602
We have the evidence. We have the law. Now, we need the will to demand change.
