POLONCARZ, SCHINZEL VISIT NEW INCLUSIVE PLAYGROUND AT CHESTNUT RIDGE PARK

Comedy legend Larry David ridiculed Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in a hysterical sketch delivering laughs online.

David, who was formerly a personal friend of Kennedy's and even played the husband of Kennedy's real-life wife, actress Cheryl Hines, on the popular show "Curb Your Enthusiasm," made it clear what he thought about the Trump official. He appeared to tell his character in the spoof to "drop dead" in one segment of his new HBO series, "Life, Larry, and the Pursuit of Unhappiness: An Almost History of America."

In the sketch, David casts himself as the mother of Jonas Salk — an American virologist and biomedical scientist who developed one of the first successful polio vaccines — who gets into a fighting match with neighbor "Bobby," who has a similar-sounding voice and tan as the health secretary.

The internet reacted to the brutal burn.

"Holy s---, Larry David absolutely COOKED RFK Jr's stupid a--, playing Dr. Jonas Salk's mom, saying it would be a 'dark day for humanity' if some idiot ever put HIM in charge of health. This is HILARIOUS!" The X account BrooklynDad_Defiant!, which has more than 1.3 million followers, wrote.

"The bear part is by far the best SICKO!" Journalist Meghan McCarthy wrote on X.

"Larry David is a flat out genius," Eric Land, a political commentator with nearly 10,000 followers, wrote on X.

"Larry David casting himself as Salk's mom is the kind of absurdly precise satire that makes the point better than any actual policy debate could. It's the only way to fight that level of chaos," author Hüseyin Örskaya wrote on X.

Joe Kent, the former senior intelligence official who resigned from the Trump administration in protest of the Iran war, made a stunning claim Monday that “something” happened to President Donald Trump that “changed” him from that point forward.

“Something in the late spring, early summer time frame happened – I don’t know what happened,” Kent said during an appearance on the “Julian Dorey Podcast” published on Monday.

“I can’t tell you why his mentality changed, but it went from, ‘we’re gonna create the most space we can for [Iran] negotiations and we’re not interested in the war,’ to, ‘okay, we’re gonna support the Israelis, do Midnight Hammer and we’re gonna continue to entertain this.’”

A key pledge of Trump during his 2024 campaign was that he would not send Americans “to fight and die in stupid foreign wars that never end,” reiterating that promise during his victory speech: “I’m not going to start a war,” he said.

And yet, in late February, Trump launched Operation Epic Fury with a large-scale attack on Iran that months later now risks sparking a broader war.

Kent, who's long championed Trump's anti-interventionist rhetoric, said he was confused by the president's apparent shift, and while he could narrow down roughly when it happened, he still couldn't say what caused it.

“I don’t know what happened. And so for me, when something like that happens, from an intelligence background, you do have to step back and look at what else could be influencing the president,” Kent said.

“Did he just change his mind? For him to go through with [launching the Iran war], ultimately, I do think there’s potentially other factors there: so what could those other factors be? Why would a president make decisions that he doesn’t agree with?”

Other conservative figures have speculated as to why Trump launched a war against Iran despite his frequent anti-war rhetoric, including prominent conservative figure Tucker Carlson, who in April floated a disturbing theory that a “blackmail” operation perpetrated by the Israeli government could potentially have forced the president’s hand.
