Rep. Mark Takano (D-CA) pressed Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on whether President Trump's recent controversial Truth Social posts threatening aggressive action against Iran raised questions about the president's mental fitness. "Will you insist that President Trump undergo an assessment of his mental fitness and emotional stability?" the California Democrat asked at a Friday hearing. "Absolutely not," Secretary Kennedy responded, adding that the president was "very sane." Rep. Takano criticized the secretary's response, saying it ignored Americans' concerns: "You are choosing your loyalty to President Trump over your loyalty to the American people," he said
