‘IS TRUMP MENTALLY UNFIT?’ — Takano GRILLS RFK Jr. on Trump, Gets Blunt Rejection

18 Apr 2026
Congressman Mark Takano walked into a congressional hearing with receipts — and what followed was one of the most extraordinary exchanges between a lawmaker and a cabinet official in recent memory. Addressing Health Secretary RFK Jr. as the nation's top health official, Takano laid out a methodical and damning timeline of President Trump's recent public behavior and asked a direct question — does any of this raise concerns about the president's mental health? He started with Trump's Easter Sunday social media post, in which the President used explicit language to threaten Iran, signed off with "Praise be to Allah," and called for strikes on power plants and bridges. He then cited Trump's statement that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again." He referenced Trump posting on Truth Social from 9 p.m. until 5 a.m., including what Takano called an unhinged attack on Pope Leo claiming the pontiff was weak on crime. And he closed with perhaps the most explosive exhibit — an image Trump posted of himself depicted as Jesus Christ, which Takano said millions found deeply offensive and blasphemous. At each turn, RFK Jr. deflected, pivoted, or simply refused to answer. When Takano asked directly whether Trump should undergo a mental fitness assessment — RFK Jr. said "absolutely not." When asked whether he would invoke the 25th Amendment if Trump failed such an assessment — RFK Jr. again refused to commit. Takano, repeatedly reclaiming his time, closed with an accusation that cut to the heart of the entire exchange — RFK Jr. is choosing his loyalty to Donald Trump over his loyalty to the Constitution and the American people. What makes this hearing moment so significant is not just the content — it is the fact that a sitting U.S. congressman is formally and publicly asking the nation's top health official to assess the President's mental fitness. That is not routine congressional oversight. That is a constitutional alarm bell.
