Carville: RFK Jr. ‘is going to kill more people than any Cabinet secretary, maybe in history'
Longtime Democratic strategist James Carville criticized Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s vaccine approach, warning the secretary's policies could have fatal consequences for the country. 'Bobby Kennedy is going to kill more people than any Cabinet secretary, maybe in history, with his idiotic vaccine policy,' Carville said Wednesday in an interview on Fox News Channel's 'The Will Cain Show.' Carville added that vaccines are 'the greatest public health intervention in the history of the world,' and blasted Kennedy for what he characterized as sowing distrust in vaccines. 'He has expressed vaccine skepticism at every point,' Carville said. 'Every notable public health person thinks that vaccines are the greatest public health innovation in the history of the world.' 'What he's doing is going to kill people' Carville said of Kennedy. Kennedy has faced criticism for his recent decision to fire all 17 experts on the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) vaccine panel and replace them with eight of his own picks. The move marked a significant downsizing for the independent, expert panel that provides guidance on vaccine recommendations. Some new advisers have been accused of spreading misinformation about vaccines, but Kennedy has lauded the new team as capable. 'The slate includes highly credentialed scientists, leading public-health experts, and some of America's most accomplished physicians. All of these individuals are committed to evidence-based medicine, gold-standard science, and common sense,' he wrote in a post on X. The new members are set to meet June 25 to review safety and efficacy data for the current immunization schedule. The Hill has reached out to HHS for comment.

Simone Biles accused of bullying as MyKayla Skinner reignites Olympics feud after Riley Gaines spat
MyKayla Skinner has entered the chat. The retired Olympic gymnast, 28, has accused former teammate Simone Biles of bullying, days after the 11-time Olympic medalist apologized to Riley Gaines for comments made during a heated social media debate over transgender athletes. Speaking recently on 'The Will Cain Show,' Skinner reiterated sentiments made in a statement Friday to One America News that alleged she 'endured being belittled, dismissed, and ostracized behind the scenes by Simone.' 7 MyKayla Skinner and Simone Biles in 2021. Getty Images 7 The former Olympic gymnast accused her ex-teammate of bullying. YouTube/Fox News 'Well, throughout my career, there's been many times where I have been belittled and bullied by Simone and have wanted to keep quiet for the other athletes,' Skinner said on Fox News. 'And there's just been many times through my Olympic journey and through camps, training, everything that we have gone through, have been multiple times where she has come and belittled all of us, and I've wanted to stay silent through this because she has a huge platform.' Skinner's comments to Cain come days after she spoke out in support of Gaines, who engaged in a fiery back-and-forth with Biles earlier this month. 7 MyKayla Skinner won silver at the Summer Games in Tokyo. AP 'As an athlete who has dedicated years to a sport, I've always believed that true competition should elevate us—not diminish others. That's why it's deeply troubling to see @Simone_Biles publicly label a fellow female athlete a 'sore loser'—simply for expressing valid concerns about fairness in women's sports,' Skinner said in a statement Friday. 'I commend and appreciate @Riley_Gaines_ for having the courage to speak up. Women like her are not only standing for fairness, but for the future of female athletics itself. She deserves support—not ridicule. 'Throughout my own career, I endured being belittled, dismissed, and ostracized behind the scenes by Simone. The pressure to stay silent was immense. I kept quiet out of respect—for the sport, for my teammates, and for the ideal of unity among athletes.' Reps at Octagon, which counts Biles as part of its roster of talent, did not immediately respond to The Post's request for comment. 7 Simone Biles sparked headlines in June 2025 after she and Riley Gaines got into a fiery social media exchange about transgender athletes. Xavier Collin/Image Press Agency / Former teammates at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, Skinner and Biles, 28, became entangled in a war of words last July on the eve of the Summer Games in Paris. Skinner, an Olympic silver medalist, criticized the 'work ethic' of the 2024 gymnastics squad. Biles, who won gold in Paris alongside Suni Lee, Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles and Hezly Rivera, appeared to shade Skinner with the Instagram caption, 'Lack of talent, lazy, olympic champions.' Skinner, who apologized for the remarks, later made an emotional plea to Biles over 'death threats' she and her loved ones received in the fallout. 7 Riley Gaines responded to comments made by Simone Biles on X in June 2025. Getty Images She concluded her statement Friday by stressing the importance of 'lifting each other up — not tearing one another down for speaking hard truths.' The heated social media debate between Gaines and Biles first sparked headlines after the Outkick contributor responded to an early June post about a Minnesota high school softball team that won a state championship with a transgender pitcher on its roster. 'Comments off lol,' Gaines wrote. 'To be expected when your star player is a boy.' Biles later called Gaines, 25, 'truly sick' for the comments. 7 Simone Biles during the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. Getty Images 'You should be uplifting the trans community and perhaps finding a way to make sports inclusive OR creating a new avenue where trans feel safe in sports. Maybe a transgender category IN ALL sports!!' Biles exclaimed. 'But instead … You bully them…' In a follow-up message, Biles wrote, 'Bully someone your own size, which would ironically be a male.' Days after the fiery back-and-forth, Biles expanded on her 'fair competition' stance in a lengthy message on X, where she issued an apology to Gaines. 7 Simone Biles addressed the comments she made to Riley Gaines in a recent post on X. FilmMagic 'I wanted to follow up from my last tweets. I've always believed competitive equity & inclusivity are both essential in sport. The current system doesn't adequately balance these important principles, which often leads to frustration and heated exchanges, and it didn't help for me to get personal with Riley, which I apologize for,' Biles wrote last week. 'These are sensitive, complicated issues that I truly don't have the answers or solutions to, but I believe it starts with empathy and respect.' Gaines said she accepted Biles' apology in a statement on X. 'I welcome you to the fight to support fair sports and a future for female athletes. Little girls deserve the same shot to achieve that you had,' she said.

Kevin Costner won't retire
Kevin Costner won't retire. The 70-year-old actor insisted giving up work isn't something he will even think about doing because he is always curious to find something else to do. He told People magazine: "I don't even think about retiring, because I'll just move to the next thing that captures my imagination. "Imagination is what determines what I do, not a boss. I think we're all different and we have different things happening for us. "I've felt really lucky in my life. I'd like to think that I worked for all of it, but not everybody can live by the same blueprint." But the former Yellowstone star doesn't have a "bucket list" for what he wants to do in his career, but simply looks for projects that will "satisfy" him and give pleasure to other people. He said: "I don't have those things. I have that list, [but] I don't refer to it that way. But certainly my eyes and my enthusiasms are wide open and very big. "I've so enjoyed life and imagining what I can do, what can I be about and what makes a difference. Not only to me, but to other people. What just satisfies me? "I go through that whole idea, and you realise it's about time. It's a rush to get to all of them." The Bodyguard actor recently explained he is attracted to scripts that steer away from obvious "notions of heroism" often seen in movies. Speaking on The Will Cain Show he said: "The notion of heroism when no-one's looking. I think when you're a child or young man or young woman and you see that, you realise, you know, the heroism of a woman who works three jobs, you see her four in the morning, every morning at a bus stop. "And by the end of the evening, when she gets home so tired and makes a meal for her kids, she's gone to three different places to work in movies. We can sometimes depict that and we lay music to it, and suddenly we know who's important. "Suddenly we know who is powerful, who is a hero, a hero in her own family, that she would work that way to make life better for her children."

Riley Gaines says Simone Biles 'sold out' young female athletes in heated debate over transgender sports
Former 12-time NCAA all-American swimmer Riley Gaines is speaking out about her 'X' feud with Olympic gymnast Simone Biles over transgender athletes competing in women's sports. The social media argument began on Friday after Gaines called out a Minnesota high school, whose softball team won a state championship after playing with a transgender pitcher. Gaines, who noted that she was not surprised comments were turned off on the high school's post, said, "to be expected when your star player is a boy." Simone Biles rebuked Gaines, saying she was "truly sick" and a "sore loser" for her comment, suggesting she should be "uplifting" transgender athletes. Biles also said Gaines should "bully someone (her) own size, which would ironically be a male." Simone Biles Doesn't Realize What She's Admitting About Trans Women In Her Posts, Riley Gaines Says "Friday afternoon, I get a notification on my phone," Gaines told "The Will Cain Show" on Monday. "It says, 'Simone Biles tagged you in something on X.' I was overwhelmed with excitement. Like, this is someone I've looked up to. She's a role model for me. [I] was so excited about this until I clicked on the notification and, of course, I had to read it like five times... make sure it wasn't a fake profile. ... It has been the talk of X, really all social platforms, TikTok, Instagram, every article that has been posted. … I believe she truthfully incinerated her legacy with just two tweets this past weekend." The swimmer says that while Biles' comments on her appearance did not hurt her feelings, she felt heartbroken thinking of young gymnasts, like her teen sister, who has looked up to the Olympic champion. Read On The Fox News App "That's the people who look up to Simone. That's the platform that she's built and curated and developed. Those people love her," she said. "They admire her and suddenly, again, in one tweet, and I would imagine an aim to be virtuous and inclusive and kind and compassionate, she sold out people like my younger sister. That's how I felt. That's what made me feel heartbroken." Several of Simone Biles' teammates have reached out to Gaines amid the 'X' debate to share their personal support for the swimmer's stance, she shared with Fox News. "They believe the intention behind this is that Simone has a new docu-series coming out on Netflix," Gaines told Fox News. "They believe it's an attempt to put her name, her profile, her face, her image back in the public sphere, but again, I think this ultimately backfired on her." Ultimately, Gaines says standing up for women's sports is not a divisive issue among everyday Americans. "This isn't a polarizing issue if you can remove yourself from the opinions of the elite. The people who are on the private jets, if you remove yourself from the opinion of Hollywood or elected representation, this truthfully is not a polarizing, divisive issue. It's a unifying issue."Original article source: Riley Gaines says Simone Biles 'sold out' young female athletes in heated debate over transgender sports
