Circumcision ‘Highly Likely” Linked to Autism According to RFK Jr – Here’s Why


Circumcision is linked to rising rates of Autism?

That’s the shocking story lighting up social media ever since the Cabinet-level meeting in the White House this morning.

During that meeting chaired by President Trump, RFK Jr. stirred the proverbial pot — something he’s well accustomed to doing.

As a proud pot-stirrer myself, I can’t help but feel a special sort of kinship with my fellow audacious rebels.

At one point during the televised meeting RFK Jr. was called upon by the President to speak on the issue of Autism, and specifically the Administration’s push to finally get to the bottom of what FACTUALLY causes it.

That’s when the Health and Human Services Secretary brought up the alleged ‘link’ between circumcision and Autism.

On the surface, the announcement seems to be way out of left field and admittedly a little ridiculous — hence… my earlier pot-stirring reference.

But the fact is, he didn’t say that circumcision CAUSES Autism, as most of the mainstream media and plenty of social media haters are falsely reporting.

Here’s a short clip of the interaction put out by Newsweek on YouTube so you can hear for yourself exactly what he said — before judging it either way:

As you could hear, what he actually said was there are two studies with data that seem to draw a possible CORRELATION — not a proof of causation — between Autism rates and circumcision.

The second part of this story is in regard to the “highly likely” link that RFK Jr. touted from these studies, which isn’t really a brand new revelation.

It was based on his previous statements examining the possible — but unproven — link between Tylenol and Autism.

Here’s another full-screen version of that meeting with slightly better audio, for backup and convenience:

Despite the media’s selective use of quotes, in the very same breath he said clearly that those studies were not “dispositive”.

I actually had to look that word up — it means “relating to or bringing about the settlement of an issue” according to a quick Google search.

So right out of the gate he prefaced his “highly likely” comment by stating very clearly that the jury is still out!

So much for truth in mainstream media reporting!

But as much as that may clear up the misinformation being thrown around right now on what he actually said this morning…

It doesn’t dispel the controversy surrounding the possible link that ‘Bobby’ and President Trump have noted between Tylenol and those skyrocketing Autism rates.

The two studies he brought up this morning emphasize a ‘double rate of autism’ in circumcised versus uncircumcised children.

But the HHS Secretary used the phrase ‘highly likely’ based on the prevalent use of Tylenol as a pain reliever for children.

He didn’t say it was obviously causative.  He actually said plainly that it was NOT proven to be causative — yet.

And rightly so, because neither of those two studies actually tracked in the cases studied whether Tylenol was given, according to this report covering today’s comment by USA Today:

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. expanded his crusade against using Tylenol with a cutting-edge warning: boys who were circumcised were twice as likely to be diagnosed with autism later.”There are two studies that show children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism,” Kennedy said Oct. 9 at President Donald Trump’s Cabinet meeting. “It’s highly likely because they’re given Tylenol.”

Kennedy and Trump set off a political firestorm Sept. 22 when they urged pregnant women not to take Tylenol because of the unproven risk that its active ingredient acetaminophen increases the risk of autism.

The recommendation remains contentious. Tylenol’s manufacturer, Kenvue, said it continues to evaluate scientific studies but that studies found “no causal link between acetaminophen use during pregnancy and fetal developmental issues.”

But Trump called on Kennedy during a Cabinet meeting focused on peace negotiations in the Middle East and the lingering government shutdown to reinforce their warnings against Tylenol.

“I would say don’t take Tylenol if you’re pregnant,” Trump said. “And when the baby is born, don’t give it Tylenol.”

Kennedy acknowledged that studies haven’t proven that acetaminophen causes autism, but that correlations with its use are so strong that it would be irresponsible to ignore.

“It’s not dispositive that it causes autism,” Kennedy said. “It’s so suggestive that anybody who takes the stuff during pregnancy is irresponsible.”

Whether your agree or disagree with his thesis…

The mere fact that there’s a noticeable link of some sort in the scientific literature between the use of Tylenol and Autism ought to raise enough concern to warrant a second, third, and fourth look.

Has the modern western medical version of circumcision played a role in those exponentially increased Autism rates?

I don’t know the answer to that — but I can see the “highly likely” possible link that RFK Jr. is pointing to IF IN FACT it is proven out that Tylenol turns out to be one of the top culprits.

The jury is definitely still out on that, though the Trump-hating media would have you believe otherwise.

But have you ever checked out some of what RFK Jr has to say on the issue in general?

I’ll share a couple of clips that you MUST SEE which completely blew my mind, in just a moment.

But check out this one case of a mother who took RFK Jr’s warnings about Tylenol seriously, and put things to the test, in the case of her nonverbal autistic son:

Is that a fluke?  A false-positive that only seems to support RFK Jr’s thesis about a Tylenol/Autism link?

Maybe.  But it’s too big of a coincidence for me to dismiss out of hand — that’s for sure.

Meanwhile, a discerning eye can detect the dismissal of common sense in much of the left-leaning media’s current reporting on this story, even while attacking RFK Jr’s thesis based on those unconfirmed ‘facts’.

I don’t mean to say that RFK Jr is claiming that his thesis HAS been proven by those unconfirmed ‘facts’…

But that those attacking his admittedly unconfirmed thesis are doing so while leaning on those same unconfirmed ‘facts’ by which to do so — the same ones they are pointing to, claiming he’s using as ‘proof’ — something he has been very careful not to do!

Just check out this short excerpt referencing the studies he mentioned, and see if that hypocritical use of ‘facts’ shows up in this thinly-veiled coverage by Newsweek:

At a Cabinet meeting Thursday, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. repeated a claim linking the use of Tylenol in infants to autism. Kennedy also said children circumcised shortly after birth have twice the rate of autism because they are given Tylenol for pain relief following the procedure.

His assertion appears to reference a 2015 study in the Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine that examined ritual circumcision and the risk of autism spectrum disorder in Danish boys under 10. The study found a higher rate of autism among circumcised boys but did not establish a cause.

Researchers in that study suggested pain from the procedure might play a role but noted they had no data on what painkillers were used, making it impossible to assess any connection to Tylenol. Other scientists have since emphasized that the Danish research showed only a correlation, not causation, and that broader studies have found no credible evidence linking Tylenol or circumcision to autism.

All that wordage could have been summed up by simply pointing out — as RFK Jr. himself said — that all of that is not “dispositive”.

For anyone that hasn’t actually heard RFK Jr’s take on this stuff, I want to offer up a couple of the videos I mentioned earlier before I close this story out.

Check out this clip of his explanation of a 30-year-old link previously known (yet not discussed) that he brings to light while sitting on a Turning Point stage next to the late great Charlie Kirk… whose knee you can see in the bottom left of the screen:

The part I think all of us can probably agree on, wherever we land on the issue of a supposed Tylenol link, is when he said he could see that “somebody is lying”.

The part that isn’t questionable, in my mind, is whether or not we’re being lied to about the specifics of Autism — or 99% of everything the government ‘authorities’ and ‘professionals’ have told us for decades about health in general.

And on that note, here’s one more video for those interested in THAT issue in particular.

We’re being lied to… and here’s a study that WOULD HAVE PROVEN THAT POINT — had it been published along with the destroyed data — as told by the HHS Secretary.

The case he shares here doesn’t have to do with Tylenol, but rather the issue of MRNA vaccines… and an INCREDIBLY elevated statistical chance of developing Autism:

Those statistics alone are FRIGHTENING from the internal CDC data he referenced.

But what might be even more terrifying is his testimony that the ‘chief scientist’ — the TOP CDC safety scientist — ordered damning evidence about a link between MRNA vaccines and Autism DESTROYED.

And according to RFK Jr. — they did just that!

And the findings — still published… without mentioning the alarming data.

I don’t know whether these things are causative or not — as RFK Jr. himself has said… these things so far are not “dispositive”.

But I don’t need a study to tell me that he’s right on one thing.

“They”… are still lying to us.

And that guy who has made it his mission in life to get to the bottom of those lies, and hold people accountable for deceitfully harming the American people?

As long as he stays that course — I’m with him.
