(LifeSiteNews) — After President Donald Trump announced measures to make in vitro fertilization (IVF) more affordable, Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. congratulated the president and predicted that Trump would “get into heaven” for expanding IVF treatments.
“RFK Jr. just told Trump he’ll ‘get to heaven’ for promoting IVF,” LifeSiteNews co-founder and CEO John-Henry Westen noted on X.
“No, Mr. Kennedy. As a Catholic, you know IVF violates God’s law — and as a man of science, you know it kills millions of embryonic children,” Westen said.
“We pray for your conversion — and for the President’s,” Westen added.

The gravely unethical IVF process entails the conscious creation of scores of “excess” embryonic humans only to be killed and human lives being treated like commodities to be bartered over. It has been estimated that more than a million embryos are frozen in storage in the United States after IVF and that as many as 93 percent of all embryos created through IVF are eventually destroyed. A 2019 NBC News profile of Florida IVF practitioner Craig Sweet acknowledged that his practice has discarded or abandoned approximately a third of the embryos it places in cold storage.
RFK Jr’s assurance to Trump that he has secured future citizenship in heaven comes following the President’s remarks earlier this week, speculating that he probably won’t make it into heaven.

Trump has identified as Christian and touted his respect for the Bible and prayer but had a notoriously salacious personal life in his past as a celebrity businessman. Debates over his character persisted after his migration to Republican politics, through which he established a strongly pro-life first presidential term but a more mixed record on LGBT issues. Since running for his second term, he has stood firm against gender transitions on minors and taxpayer funding of abortion while advocating the GOP become more moderate overall on life and homosexuality.
