RFK Jr. Shares Workout Photo with Arnold Schwarzenegger at Venice Beach Gym
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services, posted a social media selfie with former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger during a workout session at Gold's Gym in Venice Beach. Kennedy captioned the image "Senior’s Day," highlighting their shared age demographic. The two have maintained a long-standing friendship, previously connected through Kennedy’s cousin Maria Shriver, Schwarzenegger’s ex-wife. This public appearance follows earlier controversy surrounding a video of Kennedy exercising with musician Kid Rock, which drew criticism from Democratic lawmakers for allegedly mixing taxpayer-funded public health initiatives with informal personal activities. Despite political divergences—Schwarzenegger is a moderate Republican who opposed Donald Trump in the 2024 election—he affirmed his personal loyalty to Kennedy. Schwarzenegger stated that while he disagrees with some of Kennedy's policies, he supports him as a person and friend. The incident underscores Kennedy's continued focus on fitness as part of his public persona and his "Make America Healthy Again" initiative, even amidst ongoing political scrutiny regarding his management of the Department of Health and Human Services.
