What Tucker points out about Bobby Kennedy is what I have noticed especially since the "pandemic" - we must trust our brains, our senses, and what used to be known as the COMMON sense. In other words, if you see a "pandemic" and no one you know is dead, something is not right. If you see a society where allergies you rarely if ever saw as a kid (peanut allergies come to mind) become common, something is not right. If you look at photos of people from 1950 and they all look like stick figures compared to the corpulent masses you see today (personal note: Guilty but really trying to fix my diet), something is not right.
Especially when the Regime tells you everything is fine, you MUST trust your senses. God put them there for a reason. And you are far more equipped to chart your course than any bureaucrat or "expert" ever will be. Do not surrender to them.
The lies are apparent, but we refuse to take the time to weigh the evidence ourselves. COVID is the perfect example. It wasn't a secret that highly place physicians were dieing in 2019 from an odd virus. That caught my attention (30 yr career in hospital admin), and when the virus was finally announced as a thing, by May of 2020 it was clear from various European and Israeli data bases that it was a very contagious, but weak virus. That wasn't picked up by media, only those of us who were accessing raw data. It was clear, if you actually were doing your own research, that the 2020 messaging on this was to create panic, and remove Trump from office.
That same manipulation was used successfully in Russiagate, Jan 6, both impeachments, and countless other times to prove that our own government has taken control, and is beholden to the party that they rely on for their power. Our FBI, CIA. IRS, FDA, CDC and pretty much every other agency are now working for what's in the best interest of the DNC, and whatever global elites they are aligned with.
I have never believed in conspiracies, and would have never believed that our government wasn't doing what was best for the Republic.

Thank you for the William Blum quote. I had the honor of meeting and sharing a meal with him when he agreed to speak on our little campus in Titusville, Pa. What a wonderful human being and kind soul.
In nearly all cases, these were very sick individuals who are extremely vulnerable to flu as a final straw on the camel's back. Almost NO individuals died from COVID without significant other diseases, and many died from other problems (cancer/heart/trauma) but were counted as COVID if the virus was detected. The actual deaths caused solely by COVID was a fraction of what was reported.
Half of those deaths were "with COVID," not "from COVID." The CDC directed hospitals to count as a COVID death any death where the person had a positive COVID test, even if they came into the hospital from an auto accident. Children who died of leukemia were listed as COVID deaths, etc. This is not a conspiracy; it was a CDC directive, and hospitals were paid for every death counted as COVID, up to $250,000 a patient. Furthermore, the COVID tests were not tests of disease, but tests to determine if you had a few cells of a respiratory virus in your nose--it had nothing to do with illness. The US also had the poorest COVID outcomes in the world, because of the FDA/CDC directives on how the disease was to be treated: no care until you became really sick; no cheap anti-virals or anti-inflammatories; no treatment for bacterial pneumonia; ridiculous over-use of ventilators; elderly people left to die with no treatment whatever; and finally, the deadly remdesivir, which destroys the kidneys and liver. Even so, the vast majority of people who got COVID recovered just fine, so that the death toll worldwide was .15%, or a 99.85% survival rate. Because of media coverage, we were left with the impression that there had been a deadly pandemic, when the death toll was no higher than a bad flu season. The only difference was that we got relentless media coverage and fear mongering.
For the first several months of the outbreak in 2020, and before testing was developed, every respiratory death was coded/counted as COVID and the hospitals received increased funding for coding it that way.
I'm a retired hospital exec an that was verified by many of my (former) peers.
Because of your position, you probably can also confirm that hospitals received increased funding for hooking patients to ventilators, which caused numerous deaths, all of them recorded as deaths from Covid. To put it bluntly, they are responsible for loss of life while their mission was treating and helping patients. I am sure it was not intentional, but was murder nevertheless.
While hospitals may be induced to classify hospital stays to maximize revenue, since the States and Federal government make them provide so much free care, I can state, emphatically, that they would never do anything that was not in the best interest of the patient,
They would never have needlessly intubated a patient, because that's not consistent with their mission, nor in their financial best interest.
And there is debate among real scientists as to the validity of the PCR test for covid.
You may find this of interest:
The federal government is classifying the deaths of patients infected with the coronavirus as COVID-19 deaths, regardless of any underlying health issues that could have contributed to the loss of someone's life.
Dr. Deborah Birx, the response coordinator for the White House coronavirus task force, said the federal government is continuing to count the suspected COVID-19 deaths, despite other nations doing the opposite.
"There are other countries that if you had a pre-existing condition, and let's say the virus caused you to go to the ICU [intensive care unit] and then have a heart or kidney problem," she said during a Tuesday news briefing at the White House. "Some countries are recording that as a heart issue or a kidney issue and not a COVID-19 death.
"The intent is ... if someone dies with COVID-19 we are counting that," she added.
The fact is, most "Covid deaths" were among people who were already on their last legs and it pushed them over the edge. This is why it was dangerous for the elderly but not for younger people.
I recall Dr. Deborah Birx saying in the spring of 2020 "if someone dies with COVID-19 we are counting that as a COVID-19 death." We still don't have a proper way of testing for covid since the test is under EUO too just like the so called vaccine. Nobody called her out on that. The deaths from covid are bullshit just like the cases of covid since that has been proven you cannot get covid from someone who has no symptoms. They pushed a garbage vaccine that the CDC changed the definition of by using fear the oldest scam in the book and if you try to ask questions you are screamed at any called all sorts of names and blocked. That is science today
So even if those 1 million were all due only to Covid that really isn't a major increase. Even if that isn't much consolation to the dead.
No doubt Covid can be a lethal disease -- depending on "comorbidities" -- but it also seems clear that a great many "mistakes were made" by Faucci, the CDC, and other "usual suspects".
Birtha, they died of being fat, diabetic, old or immunodeficient - then caught a nasty flu and body failed. A lot of old people pass over from pneumonia for example, but that was just the straw that broke camel back of another underlying condition. This isn’t hard to understand and I think you know that
Teenagers getting the jab, kids getting the jab -- just terrible, Unnecessary. Also, they lost all credibility when they said nothing about COVID during the summer of 2020.
The leaders of two controversial pandemic simulations that took place just months before the Coronavirus crisis – Event 201 and Crimson Contagion – share a common history, the 2001 biowarfare simulation Dark Winter. Dark Winter not only predicted the 2001 anthrax attacks, but some of its participants had clear foreknowledge of those attacks.
Yeah it’s sort of unknowable because the decree came down to count anyone who tested positive for virus and died, as death from covid. I think there were even extreme cases of car crashes, victims died as result of injuries but tested positive to Covid so count as covid death. That’s an extreme example of course just to make the point. There was a government led agenda in full effect to call all deaths ‘due to Covid’ whenever possible. That fed the control and get a jab $ machine. It also for us more conspiracy minded individuals, allowed an election to be ‘controlled’ and deny Orange Man a 2nd term. What is also now unknowable is how many deaths occurred (or will occur) due to undiagnosed conditions (cancer, etc) that developed and were untreated due to lack of hospital access/visits during this time of manufactured, mass hysteria
Didn't people ever notice that Italy and Iran, two countries with heavy smoking populations had excess mortality to a respiratory virus. The same is true in the states. Heavy smokers (of tobacco and weed, both) went down hard - but nobody pointed this out at the time, because we needed to keep 4 year old Johnny behind a mask and away from his lazy teacher.
Don’t you find it interesting that there was basically no flu while Covid was such a diagnosed disease. When Covid stopped being the focus, flu came back. There was no focus put on being healthy to avoid Covid. My husband and I both dosed up on Zinc, Vitamin D, and Vitamin C. We were not into the mask thing and we did not stay home. Neither of us had Covid. I knew people that had Covid and even some that died. Those that died were overweight and had diabetes. Sadly public health has been destroyed because of all the lies they told. I used to trust the CDC and now I don’t believe anything they told us.
I play basketball to get in my cardio, 2 to 3 times per week. I played with a group of guys outdoors (while indoor gyms were closed) all throughout the scamdemic. We’re older guys, 10 to 15 of us. The court was crowded, sweaty and we breathed all over each other in close quarters constantly - and loved every minute of it. Sometimes we rented private gym and played indoors too. Some of us got jabs (I got 2) to placate my wife, some of my Persian bb friends got none at all. Only a few of us caught covid in the 2+ years of this play while regular gyms were closed. When someone got sick that person sat out a few weeks until they felt better, then they were back. Used the common sense we all know and practiced in every other facet of our lives (school, work, etc.)
The pandemic was fake, and I recall how we all laughed/bemoaned how fake it was every week when our group met on court to clear our minds and get a workout
They've admitted they just made up the 6 feet apart social distance. No basis in science. Multiple studies have concluded masking had minute to no effect on Covid spread. It's an airborne virus so washing hands, and not touching face have no effect on transmission. And, a lot of evidence mounting that the shots were ineffective at best and possibly side effects were worse in some people. Basically, a new strain of flu was overblown (highly contagious, but survivable to 99.75% if you didn't have comorbidities and/or advanced age) and seized upon by the deep state to influence an election.
No doubt that a great many "mistakes were made" by Fauci, the CDC, and other "usual suspects" during the Covid pandemic. Though it was hardly the worst we've faced:
RFK is winning because, like Tucker, he is telling the truth, and that is what people are hungry for. Sure, the MSM can spew its propaganda 24/7 and have it echoed in the social media platforms and halls of power, but good people have a built-in bullshit meter that is now pegging in the red zone and when they hear RFK speak they know he is sincere, knowledgeable and truly patriotic.
As Joe Rogan said before he interviewed RFK, his entire perception of him had been shaped by the constant drumbeat of lies and smears heaped upon him by the MSM. I am heartened by how many people have been in the same boat and had their preconceived notions of RFK changed when they actually listen to him.
I urge you to listen to him and decide for yourself.
For me, he is the only hope to turn this steaming pile of warmongering woke BS around and return America to its proper path. He is the once in a generation leader we so desperately need.
I agree with much of what RFK Jr is saying. My biggest issue is his stance on climate change. Unlike the vaccines he seems to be embracing the man made climate change hoax. Also inexpensive energy is the key to literally everything.
90% read headlines and blindly follow party lines. LOL. 100% of people who are deceived thought they wouldn’t be until they were. You can always doubt what people say but not what they do.
'corporate death' Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says he supports free speech, but he once advocated for dissolving companies that do not share his views on climate change. Perhaps his position has changed. There are receipts.
Jim, I agree with you on RFK's unreasonable position on climate change but most of his other positions I agree with; vaccines, entrenched deep state bureaucrats, anti-war, etc. There's no one I agree with 100% (except maybe Thomas Sowell) but I've learned to vote for the person I agree with the most. RFK is high on my list. So is Vivek.
I do like Vivek. He is honest and intelligent. But, as you say, there's no one any of us can agree with 100%. The main problem with Vivek is that he does not have the deep generational knowledge that RFK has in how the power structure works, nor the expertise in holding it accountable, as RFK has in court.
I do think he would be a great addition to an RFK administration. Perhaps as the Sec of Commerce?
I see your point on Vivek, he's young with utopian visions. (38 is young in my world) A president can only do so much; congress would need to act to balance the budget, rescind the war powers act, end the FED, shut down the various Departments, etc. But maybe someone young with fresh visions is what we need? We should stop electing 70-80 year old people whose priorities are based on 1970's ideology. Thanks for your thoughts.
He can help turn the steaming pile into something good, but he would have to appoint mostly democrats to the administration, and I believe the dems need to be demolished and have new leadership start over. Until that happens, I would love to see him in a DeSantis administration. There are many good options: EPA, FBI, DOJ, CIA. Heads would explode.
"he would have to appoint mostly democrats to the administration"
Says who?
He is already well liked by many republicans and independents.
I think, like JFK, he would surround himself with "the best and the brightest", irrespective of party. He is running as someone who wants to unify America, not further divide it. There is no doubt he will get resistance from those who profit by the current mess, but he has a lifetime of understanding how the power structure works and a career as a lawyer knowing how to hold it accountable.
Another Trump or Biden presidency only guarantees irrevocably splitting the country down the middle.
Says the way political parties work, and he's running to be the democrat nominee. There're only a handful of democrats who've bucked the party lunacy. I don't think an RFK admin will be an option anyway as the loons are still running the show and will not let their base nominate RFK. As far as splitting the country, that's a choice. Biden has endlessly attacked half the voters, yet I can never remember Trump, even in his most infantile tantrum, ever attacking democrat voters. Biden chose to split the country, but many democrats chose to split themselves from the half the country. I didn't care that they voiced displeasure over Trump winning, but those that followed their Comrade Leader and attacked and continue to attack half their fellow countrymen can rot as far as I'm concerned.
He's running as a democrat because he's the son of RFK and the nephew of JFK and wants to return the party to its traditional liberal values. Obviously, it is the modern dem party that is really bucking him, not the republicans or independents. So he is already well liked by non-democrats and, again, if he can run the gauntlet and make it to the presidency, no one is going to tell him who he can surround himself with or appoint.
I said it in main comments, I’ll repeat it for you, I am unwilling to return to the days when polio legitimately isolated people and disfigured children. That’s what you will have if you demonize all vaccines. If science has failed in one area or another, then find a way to de-politicize it. Without vaccines for smallpox and the like, most of us would not even be here.
Here is what is beyond fixing: The entire Democratic party. I’m not at all sure the Republican party can be fixed, either. But ss long as it is either-or, no Democrat will ever for any reason or set of reasons, get my vote.
"He still wants people imprisoned for exercising their right to free speech"
This has been cherry picked all over the web. It's a smear.
RFK Jr was talking about the relationship between corporations and government regulatory agencies. The corporate capture of these agencies is criminal because the agencies are created to look out for the interests of the American people. When the EPA is staffed by people who were CEOs of chemical companies and they do not enforce regulations, it is criminal. He is speaking to the corruption in D.C. and the harm done to citizens by regulatory capture.
Sasha please keep these coming for a while. I’m told signing up on Tucker’s website will result in forwarding to One’s email. so far that is not happening. You are far more reliable👌
Thanks Sasha! I don't hang out on Youtube much, so it's helpful when you post these.
I listened to the Joe Rogan interview, and RFK is not by any means 'anti-vax', but comes across to me as rightfully skeptical that there are some bad practices out there that should be reigned in. Unfortunately, Pharma now controls the FDA and CDC, The MIC controls our Military, Soros heavily influences local AGs, the Chamber of Commerce controls our immigration policy and China/Ukraine control the executive branch.
And the media, including Fox, look the other way.
Our government is no longer accountable to the people.
I like RFK but the one who fascinates me is Vivek Ramaswamy. He is so fiercely intelligent, articulate, knowledgeable in so many areas, so fearless and hits so hard that I think he is by far the one who will do them the most damage, win or lose. The question is though, is America still governable or even still a country?
Recently at a Townhall meeting he was asked what he would do on his first day as president. He said he would issue an Executive Order banning race based affirmative action. That’s exactly the opposite of what Biden did on his first day in office which was to issue an Executive Order to replace meritocracy wherever it can be found with Equity aka Equal Outcomes. Why though do Woke white leftists want to replace meritocracy with Equity? Actions speak louder than their Woke words and their actions say they don’t believe blacks are as intelligent as others races so the only way we can attain a society where all groups are equal is to get rid of meritocracy and replace it with Equity aka Equal Outcomes. In other words, on this most basic of issues, what if Sleepy Joe is right and super smart Vivek is simply wrong? What then?
What I would really love is RFK as head of the NIH. I don't agree with RFK on everything, but I'm not afraid if evidence based reviews, and their grant system has turned into a fiefdom which does not reward new research making discoveries for the best interest of the country.
I do like Vivek. He is definitely a smart cookie and honest. But he'd be tossed into the mother of all shark tanks in D.C. and that takes someone like RFK who has a deep, generational understanding of how the power structure works and how to hold it accountable, as he has successfully demonstrated in court.
Vivek was a very successful businessman and has a very good understanding of management, the law, he has a law degree from Harvard, history, the Constitution, the deep state and Woke ideology which he wrote a book on. He understands what he’s up against but I wonder if he understands that it was affirmative action that created the black middle class. What would happen without it?
He would be a very good press secretary but he seems to want far more than that. He wants a sane and functional society but I don’t see that as possible in a society with a ruling class supported by many that’s committed to Woke ideology which is the exact opposite of sane and functional. This is just not working at all.
He has to get in the game one way or another and raise his profile. At this point, few know who, or how good, he is. It will take a lot of work from him and those that support him. He has good energy and a good attitude and the election is 15 months off. Politics are incredibly volatile - lots can and will happen that we can't imagine.
He’s very active and very intelligent. Whenever I see video of him I check the comments and most are quite impressed with him. It’ll be interesting to see how the media deals with him. He hits very hard and can easily demolish any of them in a debate. What I wonder though is if America is even still governable or even still a country. What we have here is a severely fragmented society that seems to become more so by the day.
Sasha Stone. I happened across this excellent piece posted by an independent economist named Armstrong (link below). It is truly worthy of your subscriber's valuable time. It dovetails perfectly with what Tucker is warning America:
I would never vote for him, being an (Evil) Conservative Republican, BUT if the New York Times a former newspaper doesn't like you, you MUST be doing something right.
I agree. There is much of his platform that does not line up with my conservative views, so I can’t vote for him either but I love seeing him take on Biden.
So good. Yeah it's sad to watch what sheep people are. I was on Reddit the other day listening to someone authoritatively lecture me on how crazy and anti science RFK is. And it's just nuts, because all they did was imbibe what they were told by sources they trust. I don't know if RFK is right or not but I know that science is not advanced by avoiding debate and shutting down dissent, as we've sadly seen too much of recently.
+ the authoritative voices have been wrong on so many important issues yet they persist in insisting they know what’s best. It’s really amazing. Starting with russiagate and through the pandemic and onto Ukraine and so on. At least RFK has some humility and when he speaks he just says what he believes. He’s not being given talking points.
Yeah it is amazing indeed. It does make me think about how apt the red pill analogy is. It does take something like that to wake them up from the unquestioning stupor they're in. I voted for Obama twice but shifted after hearing Ben Shapiro on Rogans show. Before that voted Dem tho did read the Wall Street Journal and liked their editorials.
Bret Weinstein, PhD in biology, says in his interview with Coleman Hughes that he believes the IQ difference between blacks and whites is based on software (culture) rather than hardware (genes) and therefore can be fixed. We have totally failed to fix it though after 50 years, vast sums of money and so much social engineering that America is now a society that judges people on the basis of their group identity rather than as individuals. Is this supposed to be progress?
If it’s just a cultural difference why have we ended up like this and if the left really believed the IQ difference is culture rather than genes why have they given up on trying to improve the schools and instead focused on replacing meritocracy with Equity wherever it can be found? Doesn’t their commitment to Equal Outcomes look a lot like a belief that blacks can’t compete without dumbed down and rigged standards or even totally eliminated standards? And where is the black outrage about being classified as unable to compete with other races?
What Tucker points out about Bobby Kennedy is what I have noticed especially since the "pandemic" - we must trust our brains, our senses, and what used to be known as the COMMON sense. In other words, if you see a "pandemic" and no one you know is dead, something is not right.

So in the 3 1/2 years of Covid -- according to Wikipedia -- there would have been about 10 million dead under normal circumstances:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic
So even if those 1 million were all due only to Covid that really isn't a major increase. Even if that isn't much consolation to the dead.
No doubt Covid can be a lethal disease -- depending on "comorbidities" -- but it also seems clear that a great many "mistakes were made" by Faucci, the CDC, and other "usual suspects".
Birtha, they died of being fat, diabetic, old or immunodeficient - then caught a nasty flu and body failed. A lot of old people pass over from pneumonia for example, but that was just the straw that broke camel back of another underlying condition. This isn’t hard to understand and I think you know that
Teenagers getting the jab, kids getting the jab -- just terrible, Unnecessary. Also, they lost all credibility when they said nothing about COVID during the summer of 2020.
All Roads Lead to Dark Winter
The leaders of two controversial pandemic simulations that took place just months before the Coronavirus crisis – Event 201 and Crimson Contagion – share a common history, the 2001 biowarfare simulation Dark Winter. Dark Winter not only predicted the 2001 anthrax attacks, but some of its participants had clear foreknowledge of those attacks.

Yeah it’s sort of unknowable because the decree came down to count anyone who tested positive for virus and died, as death from covid. I think there were even extreme cases of car crashes, victims died as result of injuries but tested positive to Covid so count as covid death. That’s an extreme example of course just to make the point. There was a government led agenda in full effect to call all deaths ‘due to Covid’ whenever possible. That fed the control and get a jab $ machine. It also for us more conspiracy minded individuals, allowed an election to be ‘controlled’ and deny Orange Man a 2nd term. What is also now unknowable is how many deaths occurred (or will occur) due to undiagnosed conditions (cancer, etc) that developed and were untreated due to lack of hospital access/visits during this time of manufactured, mass hysteria
Didn't people ever notice that Italy and Iran, two countries with heavy smoking populations had excess mortality to a respiratory virus. The same is true in the states. Heavy smokers (of tobacco and weed, both) went down hard - but nobody pointed this out at the time, because we needed to keep 4 year old Johnny behind a mask and away from his lazy teacher.
Don’t you find it interesting that there was basically no flu while Covid was such a diagnosed disease. When Covid stopped being the focus, flu came back. There was no focus put on being healthy to avoid Covid. My husband and I both dosed up on Zinc, Vitamin D, and Vitamin C. We were not into the mask thing and we did not stay home. Neither of us had Covid. I knew people that had Covid and even some that died. Those that died were overweight and had diabetes. Sadly public health has been destroyed because of all the lies they told. I used to trust the CDC and now I don’t believe anything they told us.
I play basketball to get in my cardio, 2 to 3 times per week. I played with a group of guys outdoors (while indoor gyms were closed) all throughout the scamdemic. We’re older guys, 10 to 15 of us. The court was crowded, sweaty and we breathed all over each other in close quarters constantly - and loved every minute of it. Sometimes we rented private gym and played indoors too. Some of us got jabs (I got 2) to placate my wife, some of my Persian bb friends got none at all. Only a few of us caught covid in the 2+ years of this play while regular gyms were closed. When someone got sick that person sat out a few weeks until they felt better, then they were back. Used the common sense we all know and practiced in every other facet of our lives (school, work, etc.)
The pandemic was fake, and I recall how we all laughed/bemoaned how fake it was every week when our group met on court to clear our minds and get a workout
They've admitted they just made up the 6 feet apart social distance. No basis in science. Multiple studies have concluded masking had minute to no effect on Covid spread. It's an airborne virus so washing hands, and not touching face have no effect on transmission. And, a lot of evidence mounting that the shots were ineffective at best and possibly side effects were worse in some people. Basically, a new strain of flu was overblown (highly contagious, but survivable to 99.75% if you didn't have comorbidities and/or advanced age) and seized upon by the deep state to influence an election.
"got vaccinated incl booster to aid themselves and all of society"
The vaccines were worthless and the CDC knew it. They pushed the mandates anyway.

No doubt that a great many "mistakes were made" by Fauci, the CDC, and other "usual suspects" during the Covid pandemic. Though it was hardly the worst we've faced:

But kinda think RFK Jr. is blowing smoke out of his arse in peddling the autism-vaccine "link":

Sasha,
Keep posting Tucker!
Thank you so much.
Also because they get some good conversations going in the comment thread.
RFK is winning because, like Tucker, he is telling the truth, and that is what people are hungry for. Sure, the MSM can spew its propaganda 24/7 and have it echoed in the social media platforms and halls of power, but good people have a built-in bullshit meter that is now pegging in the red zone and when they hear RFK speak they know he is sincere, knowledgeable and truly patriotic.
As Joe Rogan said before he interviewed RFK, his entire perception of him had been shaped by the constant drumbeat of lies and smears heaped upon him by the MSM. I am heartened by how many people have been in the same boat and had their preconceived notions of RFK changed when they actually listen to him.
I urge you to listen to him and decide for yourself.
For me, he is the only hope to turn this steaming pile of warmongering woke BS around and return America to its proper path. He is the once in a generation leader we so desperately need.
I agree with much of what RFK Jr is saying. My biggest issue is his stance on climate change. Unlike the vaccines he seems to be embracing the man made climate change hoax. Also inexpensive energy is the key to literally everything.
Are you sure you're listening to him and not what others are saying about him?
RFK Jr.: Climate Change Being Exploited to Push Totalitarianism
https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/rfkjr-joe-biden-2024/2023/06/12/id/1123342/
Excellent point. 90% of our citizens read headlines and blindly follow talking heads or party lines. RFK came across very well and credible on Rogan.
90% read headlines and blindly follow party lines. LOL. 100% of people who are deceived thought they wouldn’t be until they were. You can always doubt what people say but not what they do.
FLASHBACK: Robert F.
Kennedy.
Jr. once called for
Koch Industries and ExxonMobil to be put to
'corporate death' Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says he supports free speech, but he once advocated for dissolving companies that do not share his views on climate change. Perhaps his position has changed. There are receipts.
This has been cherry picked all over the web. Better do some research.
https://youtu.be/qcm1gmPL50s
So a 13 year-old youtube clip from a much longer video (that is not referenced) is it?
All I can say is listen to the man now. Make up your mind based upon what he is saying in 2023, not some snippet from 2010.
Hell, have any of us maybe rethought what we thought in 2010? You know, updated our views as new information became available?
That is one thing I like about RFK. He has a willingness to learn and take in new information.
Try it sometime.
Jim, I agree with you on RFK's unreasonable position on climate change but most of his other positions I agree with; vaccines, entrenched deep state bureaucrats, anti-war, etc. There's no one I agree with 100% (except maybe Thomas Sowell) but I've learned to vote for the person I agree with the most. RFK is high on my list. So is Vivek.
I do like Vivek. He is honest and intelligent. But, as you say, there's no one any of us can agree with 100%. The main problem with Vivek is that he does not have the deep generational knowledge that RFK has in how the power structure works, nor the expertise in holding it accountable, as RFK has in court.
I do think he would be a great addition to an RFK administration. Perhaps as the Sec of Commerce?
I see your point on Vivek, he's young with utopian visions. (38 is young in my world) A president can only do so much; congress would need to act to balance the budget, rescind the war powers act, end the FED, shut down the various Departments, etc. But maybe someone young with fresh visions is what we need? We should stop electing 70-80 year old people whose priorities are based on 1970's ideology. Thanks for your thoughts.
I'm as old as RFK and our priorities are based upon 1776 ideology. ☺
He can help turn the steaming pile into something good, but he would have to appoint mostly democrats to the administration, and I believe the dems need to be demolished and have new leadership start over. Until that happens, I would love to see him in a DeSantis administration. There are many good options: EPA, FBI, DOJ, CIA. Heads would explode.
"he would have to appoint mostly democrats to the administration"
Says who?
He is already well liked by many republicans and independents.
I think, like JFK, he would surround himself with "the best and the brightest", irrespective of party. He is running as someone who wants to unify America, not further divide it. There is no doubt he will get resistance from those who profit by the current mess, but he has a lifetime of understanding how the power structure works and a career as a lawyer knowing how to hold it accountable.
Another Trump or Biden presidency only guarantees irrevocably splitting the country down the middle.
Says the way political parties work, and he's running to be the democrat nominee. There're only a handful of democrats who've bucked the party lunacy. I don't think an RFK admin will be an option anyway as the loons are still running the show and will not let their base nominate RFK. As far as splitting the country, that's a choice. Biden has endlessly attacked half the voters, yet I can never remember Trump, even in his most infantile tantrum, ever attacking democrat voters. Biden chose to split the country, but many democrats chose to split themselves from the half the country. I didn't care that they voiced displeasure over Trump winning, but those that followed their Comrade Leader and attacked and continue to attack half their fellow countrymen can rot as far as I'm concerned.
He's running as a democrat because he's the son of RFK and the nephew of JFK and wants to return the party to its traditional liberal values. Obviously, it is the modern dem party that is really bucking him, not the republicans or independents. So he is already well liked by non-democrats and, again, if he can run the gauntlet and make it to the presidency, no one is going to tell him who he can surround himself with or appoint.
"When you're own family is alarmed at you..."
This is irrelevant. But it seems to be all that the MSM/DNC can spew, along with the "anti-vaxxer" crap, as they refuse to let him debate Biden.
Now, list Biden's accomplishments as POTUS.
They refuse to let Biden debate anyone. Biden does what he’s told.
No Democrat, no one from the party of the WEF, is the “only hope.” He still wants people imprisoned for exercising their right to free speech
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/sep/23/robert-kennedy-jr-we-need-laws-punish-global-warmi/
I said it in main comments, I’ll repeat it for you, I am unwilling to return to the days when polio legitimately isolated people and disfigured children. That’s what you will have if you demonize all vaccines. If science has failed in one area or another, then find a way to de-politicize it. Without vaccines for smallpox and the like, most of us would not even be here.
Here is what is beyond fixing: The entire Democratic party. I’m not at all sure the Republican party can be fixed, either. But ss long as it is either-or, no Democrat will ever for any reason or set of reasons, get my vote.
"He still wants people imprisoned for exercising their right to free speech"
This has been cherry picked all over the web. It's a smear.
RFK Jr was talking about the relationship between corporations and government regulatory agencies. The corporate capture of these agencies is criminal because the agencies are created to look out for the interests of the American people. When the EPA is staffed by people who were CEOs of chemical companies and they do not enforce regulations, it is criminal. He is speaking to the corruption in D.C. and the harm done to citizens by regulatory capture.
It’s meaningful to have full family support. Works especially well when they are all receiving payments from the grift.
Don’t stop. I really appreciate seeing it come up in my email. Thank you.
That they hate RFK, Jr. this much makes me like him even more - I’m ready for his fresh voice and exciting views.
Sasha please keep these coming for a while. I’m told signing up on Tucker’s website will result in forwarding to One’s email. so far that is not happening. You are far more reliable👌
Same!
Thanks Sasha! I don't hang out on Youtube much, so it's helpful when you post these.
I listened to the Joe Rogan interview, and RFK is not by any means 'anti-vax', but comes across to me as rightfully skeptical that there are some bad practices out there that should be reigned in. Unfortunately, Pharma now controls the FDA and CDC, The MIC controls our Military, Soros heavily influences local AGs, the Chamber of Commerce controls our immigration policy and China/Ukraine control the executive branch.
And the media, including Fox, look the other way.
Our government is no longer accountable to the people.
Thank you for posting it. Usually my sister sends them to me, but she missed this one.
And he is right. Bobby Kennedy is winning.
I like RFK but the one who fascinates me is Vivek Ramaswamy. He is so fiercely intelligent, articulate, knowledgeable in so many areas, so fearless and hits so hard that I think he is by far the one who will do them the most damage, win or lose. The question is though, is America still governable or even still a country?
Recently at a Townhall meeting he was asked what he would do on his first day as president. He said he would issue an Executive Order banning race based affirmative action. That’s exactly the opposite of what Biden did on his first day in office which was to issue an Executive Order to replace meritocracy wherever it can be found with Equity aka Equal Outcomes. Why though do Woke white leftists want to replace meritocracy with Equity? Actions speak louder than their Woke words and their actions say they don’t believe blacks are as intelligent as others races so the only way we can attain a society where all groups are equal is to get rid of meritocracy and replace it with Equity aka Equal Outcomes. In other words, on this most basic of issues, what if Sleepy Joe is right and super smart Vivek is simply wrong? What then?
Sec of Commerce for RFK?
What I would really love is RFK as head of the NIH. I don't agree with RFK on everything, but I'm not afraid if evidence based reviews, and their grant system has turned into a fiefdom which does not reward new research making discoveries for the best interest of the country.
Too smart.
I do like Vivek. He is definitely a smart cookie and honest. But he'd be tossed into the mother of all shark tanks in D.C. and that takes someone like RFK who has a deep, generational understanding of how the power structure works and how to hold it accountable, as he has successfully demonstrated in court.
Vivek was a very successful businessman and has a very good understanding of management, the law, he has a law degree from Harvard, history, the Constitution, the deep state and Woke ideology which he wrote a book on. He understands what he’s up against but I wonder if he understands that it was affirmative action that created the black middle class. What would happen without it?
VP for RFK?
Too smart to play second fiddle.
True but he's young and might look at it a way to get some experience and hone his chops. He'd also make a great press secretary.
He would be a very good press secretary but he seems to want far more than that. He wants a sane and functional society but I don’t see that as possible in a society with a ruling class supported by many that’s committed to Woke ideology which is the exact opposite of sane and functional. This is just not working at all.
He has to get in the game one way or another and raise his profile. At this point, few know who, or how good, he is. It will take a lot of work from him and those that support him. He has good energy and a good attitude and the election is 15 months off. Politics are incredibly volatile - lots can and will happen that we can't imagine.
He’s very active and very intelligent. Whenever I see video of him I check the comments and most are quite impressed with him. It’ll be interesting to see how the media deals with him. He hits very hard and can easily demolish any of them in a debate. What I wonder though is if America is even still governable or even still a country. What we have here is a severely fragmented society that seems to become more so by the day.
Thank you Sasha... keep ‘em coming!
Sasha,
Thank You for posting Tucker. Most appreciated. Very Respectfully, Phil
As long as you’re posting them, I’m here for it!
Sasha Stone. I happened across this excellent piece posted by an independent economist named Armstrong (link below). It is truly worthy of your subscriber's valuable time. It dovetails perfectly with what Tucker is warning America:
https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/behavioral-economics/mass-psychosis-and-totalitarianism/
I would never vote for him, being an (Evil) Conservative Republican, BUT if the New York Times a former newspaper doesn't like you, you MUST be doing something right.
I agree. There is much of his platform that does not line up with my conservative views, so I can’t vote for him either but I love seeing him take on Biden.
Gosh, you don't suppose That's the reason he is taking such heat?
NAH, That's just crazy talk! :-)
So good. Yeah it's sad to watch what sheep people are. I was on Reddit the other day listening to someone authoritatively lecture me on how crazy and anti science RFK is. And it's just nuts, because all they did was imbibe what they were told by sources they trust. I don't know if RFK is right or not but I know that science is not advanced by avoiding debate and shutting down dissent, as we've sadly seen too much of recently.
+ the authoritative voices have been wrong on so many important issues yet they persist in insisting they know what’s best. It’s really amazing. Starting with russiagate and through the pandemic and onto Ukraine and so on. At least RFK has some humility and when he speaks he just says what he believes. He’s not being given talking points.
Our government and alphabet bureaucratic agencies are now literally - ‘the boy who cried wolf’
Yeah it is amazing indeed. It does make me think about how apt the red pill analogy is. It does take something like that to wake them up from the unquestioning stupor they're in. I voted for Obama twice but shifted after hearing Ben Shapiro on Rogans show. Before that voted Dem tho did read the Wall Street Journal and liked their editorials.
Bret Weinstein, PhD in biology, says in his interview with Coleman Hughes that he believes the IQ difference between blacks and whites is based on software (culture) rather than hardware (genes) and therefore can be fixed. We have totally failed to fix it though after 50 years, vast sums of money and so much social engineering that America is now a society that judges people on the basis of their group identity rather than as individuals. Is this supposed to be progress?
If it’s just a cultural difference why have we ended up like this and if the left really believed the IQ difference is culture rather than genes why have they given up on trying to improve the schools and instead focused on replacing meritocracy with Equity wherever it can be found? Doesn’t their commitment to Equal Outcomes look a lot like a belief that blacks can’t compete without dumbed down and rigged standards or even totally eliminated standards? And where is the black outrage about being classified as unable to compete with other races?
