John Mulaney is taking on Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The 43-year-old comedian took aim at the 72-year-old U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services during his set at Night of Too Many Stars amid the 2026 Netflix Is A Joke Festival on May 7 at the Hollywood Bowl.
“I know him as ‘Bobby.’ That’s how much he shouldn’t be in the government,” John remarked, adding: “I know him.”
He explained that RFK Jr. is “comedy-adjacent” due to marrying Curb Your Enthusiasm star Cheryl Hines, and reflected on being tasked with performing at RFK Jr.’s Waterkeepers Alliance.
“They were in charge of keeping the Hudson River clean. That’s how good he is at jobs,” John joked, via GQ.
“His old job was keeping the Hudson River, whose native fish is ‘tied-off used condom,’ clean. Stupid f—,” John added, via The Daily Beast.
He also said RFK “cheats on [Hines] like a dog.”
“He’s married to that woman from Curb Your Enthusiasm and cheats on her like a dog, but he likes to be around comedy people. Sorry for the pearl clutch here…sorry to drop that public domain information on the Hollywood Bowl.” – John Mulaney
“My father was a good man, and I’m a very bad man. Look at my Gatorade-green eyes and my skin like a snake? Can I be in charge of the way you feel in your body? Anyway, enough of that s–t. Stop making me political,” John also said while impersonating RFK Jr. at one point, via Daily Beast.
