Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s statement today was dramatic and poignant, but also sad, in calling out the primary rigging, lawfare, and manipulation that forced him out of the Democratic Party and off ballots, and installed Kamala Harris as nominee without any voting process.
Here’s an excerpt:
“It ran a sham primary that was rigged to prevent any serious challenge to President Biden. Then, when a predictably bungled debate performance precipitated the palace coup against President Biden, the same, shadowy DNC operatives appointed his successor also without an election they installed a candidate who was so unpopular with voters that she dropped out in 2020 without winning a single delegate. My uncle and my father both relished debate. They prided themselves on their capacity go toe-to-toe with any opponent in the battle over ideas. They would be astonished to learn of a Democratic party presidential nominee who, like Vice President Harris, has not appeared in a single interview or an unscripted encounter with voters for 35 days. This is profoundly undemocratic.”
And another:
“What most alarms me isn’t how the Democratic Party conducts its internal affairs, or runs it candidates. What alarms me is the resort to censorship and media control, and the weaponization of the federal agencies. When a U.S. President colludes with or outright coerces media companies to censor political speech, it is an attack on our most sacred right of free expression, and that’s the very right upon which all of our other constitutional rights rest.”
Here is my hot take:
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. just gave a blistering speech in which he announced not only that he was backing Donald Trump for the presidency and taking his name off the ballot in 10 crucial swing states, but it was a complete denunciation of a trend in our society that we’ve been talking about at the website for many years. And of course, we’re not the only ones to talk about it, which is the capture of institution, the creeping totalitarianism that has been taking place through lawfare and through deplatforming people and through internet censorship driven by the Democrat Party.It really was a watershed moment, potentially, in how people look at what is happening in our politics and the reality that a lot of us have come to, that there is such a deep corruption that it is almost impossible to have a fair election anymore.And that is what he was talking about, how things are manipulated, social media is censored. He is subject to lawfare just like Donald Trump has been subject to endless lawfare, and there is a loss of faith in the system. So I think that what he was pointing out is something we’ve been talking about, but now it’s out front coming from somebody who really can’t be called right wing or whatever.So this was really sounding the alarm. This was really ripping the mask off the face of our political process. And this was really taking to task the people who are slowly but surely the destroying our democracy. And they’re doing it in the name of what they claim is to preserve democracy. But we know that’s not true.So I don’t know what difference this will make in the election, but at least the issue is out there.And if you want to know how corrupt the media is, I spot checked the press coverage at the mainstream outlets before I recorded this.None of them are really talking about the substance of what he said. None of them are talking about how the process in the Democrat party and primaries was manipulated. None of them are talking about that. They’re all talking about the attacks on him, which have already been launched by family members and others.So this is a wake up call. If we meet the task, that would be great. I’m not convinced it will happen, but nobody can now say they are unaware of the deep corruption in our society, which is being caused by the totalitarian urges of the people who have forced Robert Kennedy Jr. out of the Democratic Party.
