RFK Jr Slammed For Swimming In Sewage-Filled Rock Creek With Grandchildren

On a Sunday morning, US health secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr decided to take his grandchildren swimming but faced criticism for the choice of waters. For their day out, the former presidential candidate chose Washington's Rock Creek, despite enormous evidence of its water being contaminated with harmful bacteria. The creek, known for its sewage runoff and unsafe water conditions, has been banned for swimming for over 50 years due to high levels of E coli, bacteria, faecal contamination and other pathogens. Mr Kennedy shared photos on social media showing himself and his grandchildren taking dips and swimming in the creek. One image showed him submerged in the water. This tributary receives about 40 million gallons of untreated sewage and stormwater overflow annually, according to the DC Water and Sewer Authority. Mother's Day hike in Dumbarton Oaks Park with Amaryllis, Bobby, Kick, and Jackson, and a swim with my grandchildren, Bobcat and Cassius in Rock Creek. — Robert F. Kennedy Jr (@RobertKennedyJr) May 11, 2025 The US health secretary soon came under fire online. A user wrote on X, "With all due respect, swimming in Rock Creek is prohibited because the water is contaminated with [poop emoji]." With all due respect, swimming in Rock Creek is prohibited because the water is contaminated with ???? — Akio (@realAkioSato) May 11, 2025 "Enjoy the E. coli," a comment read. Enjoy the E. coli! ???? — ???????????????????? ✨????✨ ???????????????????? (@holly__heart) May 12, 2025 Someone asked to call "Child Protection Services." Someone should call Child protection services! If they haven't been dismantled! — Susan Randol (@suzee85144) May 12, 2025 The National Park Service has repeatedly issued warnings against swimming in Rock Creek because of the hazardous water. "Rock Creek has high levels of bacteria and other infectious pathogens that make swimming, wading, and other contact with the water a hazard to human (and pet) health," the agency advisory says. The city's swimming ban extends across all local waterways. City authorities have plans to address the contamination by constructing a tunnel to reduce sewage flow into Piney Branch and Rock Creek. Robert F Kennedy Jr is often known for engaging in risky wildlife adventures. As a young man, he hunted bushmeat and survived tropical diseases during expeditions in South America and Africa. Mr Kennedy once claimed that a parasitic worm entered his brain, ate a portion of it, and then died. He has also handled the carcasses of dead animals, including a baby bear and a whale, earning a reputation for reckless outdoor adventures.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers: How Will Kristen Protect Her Evil Secret?

Curious about how Kristen plans to protect herself and EJ in Days of Our Lives? As tensions rise and secrets threaten to unravel, Kristen finds herself in a dangerous position. With unexpected twists and high-stakes decisions ahead, she must act fast to stay in control. Let's take a closer look at what's at risk, the moves Kristen is preparing to make, and how it could all unfold. Kristen DiMera will take drastic measures to protect herself and EJ DiMera in Days of Our Lives. She will prepare a dangerous concoction designed to cause memory loss. She plans to use it to prevent Rafe Hernandez from revealing her involvement in recent crimes. Meanwhile, Steve Johnson and Brady successfully rescue Ava Vitali from Aremid, leading Kristen to realize she must act quickly. Brady rushes Ava to the hospital while Steve heads to the Salem Police Department for help. Rachel, the 'woman in white,' is brought in for questioning, and Shawn is expected to assist in the investigation. Prior to this, the real Rafe Hernandez had pleaded with Rachel to free him, leading to a conversation between them. Kristen and EJ arrive at Aremid, where Kristen prepares to inject Rafe with her memory-erasing potion. Kristen is also concerned about Child Protection Services investigating her and Brady's custody battle over Rachel.
