It might be time to stop trusting anyone with the name Kennedy on national health matters.
In a bizarre clip on C-SPAN2, Republican Kentucky Senator, John Kennedy, rambled on for over three minutes about how shrimp being shipped into America could be radioactive, and as a result of that radioactivity, the shrimp could turn diners into the alien from the movie ‘Alien.’
Yeah, we thought it was AI at first, too. Then we realized that Kennedy had posted the video from the presentation on his own official Twitter account. Take it in.
If you eat some of the radioactive frozen shrimp that foreign countries are sending to America, you may end up looking like this picture from the movie, “Alien!” pic.twitter.com/cdzWUF3G3v

Truly terrifying stuff. But not for the reasons Senator Kennedy thinks. Here’s how Twitter responded.

In the distant future, people will review this era’s records and wonder if they’re being deceived or if our society was so incompetent that we allowed figures like @SenJohnKennedy to represent us, just to see what would happen and how we’d survive.
