Farce Upon Farce: The Aftermath of My Secret Service Request

... Now I hope we can return to the actual issue here. After using government resources to censor me, and using government resources to attack me in the White House press room, the Biden administration made the unprecedented decision to deny a political opponent Secret Service protection during a campaign. Even worse, this is part of a larger pattern of politicizing and weaponizing government agencies to serve the faction in power. The DOJ, the IRS, and the FBI have all been turned into tools to harass political opponents. The denial of Secret Service protection is just the latest example. The public’s response to that has been clear, and the public’s concern and care will remain my enduring takeaway.

How to Restore America’s Middle Class

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

Causes of middle-class decline

What has happened? It’s not that workers have become less productive. It’s not that technological levels have declined. Here are some of the reasons for the decline of the middle class, and what, therefore, we can do about it.

Up into the 1970s, worker pay increased about as fast as worker productivity. Since 1979, worker productivity has increased 3.7 times faster than worker pay. As a result, millions of workers have dropped out of the middle class.

One simple reason for the stagnation in worker pay is the decline in union membership from over 30% of the workforce in 1950 to barely 10% today. We learned in the 19th century that capitalism cannot work if workers cannot bargain collectively with employers.

Free trade agreements have put American workers in competition with low-wage workers elsewhere in the world. “Free trade” sounds like a good idea, but it means that employers move production to places where environmental regulations are lax and where worker protections are non-existent. Companies in the US have to either offshore or extract concessions from their workers. Up through the 1970s, union bargaining was all about pay increases. When deindustrialization gathered momentum in the 1980s, it became about saving jobs and holding on.

Military spending is at record levels. The official military budget is around $800 billion, but estimates of total national security spending range from $1.2 to $1.5 trillion. Military spending directs productive labor toward “goods and services” that don’t actually benefit anyone. That makes the things people actually need and want comparatively more expensive.

Healthcare costs are out of control, accounting now for more than one-sixth of GDP. That’s compared to one-twentieth in 1960. Per capita, U.S. healthcare spending is more than double that of Japan, France, the UK, Canada, and most other countries.

Corporations have taken over our government, bending laws and regulations to benefit themselves at the expense of the majority of workers.

Tax loopholes allow the super-wealthy to avoid paying the level of taxes necessary to ameliorate wealth inequality.

Solutions for restoring the middle class

The middle class won’t recover overnight, but here are some of the things I’ll do as President to improve the lives of the middle segment of society.

Renegotiate free trade agreements and impose compensatory tariffs on imports from low-wage countries.

Rein in military spending. A family of four’s share of current defense spending is at least $10,000 a year. Imagine if that money was devoted to free childcare or child tax credits.

Cut healthcare costs with Medicare-for-all, restrict pharmaceutical companies’ profiteering, and redirect a portion of medical research toward inexpensive natural, holistic, and alternative therapies.

Implement some form of student debt relief. Allow student debt to be dischargeable in bankruptcy. Cut interest rates on student loans to zero.

Raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour – about the level it was in 1968 – which will raise the floor on all wages and return a share of productivity growth back to workers.

Close loopholes and tighten enforcement against illegal corporate union-busting activity. The NLRB and Department of Justice must take vigorous action to enforce the letter and the spirit of the law.

RFK Jr. Denounces Russiagate as Political Propaganda Against Trump

“We have had a problem from at least the 1960s of the FBI being weaponized against political dissent,” Democratic Presidential Candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Roger Simon in an exclusive interview.

“We saw the FBI legitimizing Russiagate, the propaganda against Trump. And I’m not a fan of Trump’s, but I don’t think that the FBI should be deployed against any presidential candidate, whether I agree with that candidate or not.”

Kennedy also commented on Hunter’s laptop.

“You had [51] CIA agents or high-level officials signing a public letter that said that the Hunter Biden laptop was a fake, was Russian disinformation when they either didn’t know or they knew it was a lie. And that’s something that we should not tolerate.”

Liberals Blast Hollywood Actor Woody Harrelson for Supporting Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

The so-called “inclusive” Democratic Party is slamming Hollywood actor Woody Harrelson simply because he’s not supporting President Joe Biden in 2024. Oh, how inclusive they are — only when you agree with them.

On X, formerly known as Twitter, liberals unleashed a tsunami of attacks directed at Harrelson for supporting Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

The famed Hollywood actor posted a photo of himself wearing a “Kennedy 2024” hat alongside RFK’s wife, Cheryl Hines, who posted the photo on her Instagram. Annoyed liberals began denouncing Harrelson upon seeing the photo.

Some interesting points:

- The "Patriot Act" allowed development of bioweapons by removing all US punishments.
- Development of bioweapons is a hanging offense according to the Geneva Convention, of which the US is a signatory.
- Obama shut down 18 of Fauci's worst bioweapon experiments, so Fauci moved some development to Wuhan, and some to Ukraine.
- ASAID (part of the CIA) is funding these labs.
- The people involved in the Kennedy assassinations were Bill Harvey and David Atlee Philips, part of the Miama CIA office.
- The law required all the assassinations documents be released by 2017, but the US government simply violated that law.
- Operation Mockingbird required that everyone who questioned the "lone gunman" explanation be labelled a "conspiracy theorist" in the corporate press.
- This was enforced with 400 highly placed editors and reporters.
- Mike Pompeo told Kennedy that the entire upper echelon of the CIA does not believe in the Democratic process.
- A lot of the people being delivered over the border by the cartels are from Africa and the Mideast.
- US "Border Security" literally buys illegals plane tickets for anywhere they want to go in the US and told to report to a hearing an average of seven years out.
- They all then work illegally for seven years on average, driving down wages for US citizens.
- TikTok etc tells illegals exactly what they need to do to get cartel assistance to get into the US. It costs $10K to $15K per person.
- The cartels may simply take and sell women and children.
- There have been 7 million illegals coming in during the Bidet administration, but only 3 million legal immigrants.
- Credit card debt is not dischargeable in bankruptcy. (News to me.)

RFK Jr.'s top donor is a far left Socialist.

One of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s top donors is a longtime funder of far-left socialist groups and Communist Party sympathizers, according to records.

Abby Rockefeller, the great-granddaughter of John D. Rockefeller, gave $100,000 to Democratic presidential candidate Kennedy's super PAC, American Values 2024, according to campaign finance records. For decades, Rockefeller and her husband, writer Lee Halprin, have also helped bankroll socialist newspapers, conferences, and the Democratic Socialists of America political party.

While Rockefeller is a major supporter of some mainstream Democratic groups—including the Democratic National Committee—she and her husband also contribute regularly to far-left fringe organizations.

She was one of the top donors to the Democratic Socialists of America’s "Anti-capitalist Capital Campaign" in 2016, according to the group’s newsletter. Between 2015 and 2020, Rockefeller and Halprin donated a combined $38,000 to the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, which backs many members of the DSA, including Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) and Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.), according to Federal Election Commission records.

Rockefeller is also a financial supporter of socialist media outlets and conferences. She gave at least $10,000 to the socialist magazine In These Times in 2022, according to its annual financial report.

She was listed as a donor to the 2015 Left Forum in the "Thanks to our comrades" section of its conference schedule. The socialist forum, hosted at John Jay College, was titled "No Justice No Peace: Confronting the Crises of Capitalism and Democracy" and included panel discussions on "Protest, Power and the Socialist Vision," "Art Against Capitalism," and "How To Teach Marxism."

I don't care. Kennedy is so much better than any other Democrat out there that I'd be very happy if he go in.

He speaks openly about breaking up the CIA and about the harm of the toxxine. Not even Trump does that.

He is fine as a Democrat spoiler and just only recently sobered up on some Conservative issues. Decent summary below about how he finally opened his dumb brain to the disaster at the border. Better late than never I suppose - but does seem very opportunistic as he tries to run to the right of Biden.

But the dude is still a Leftist and virtually all of the declared Republicans currently running (even Pence!) would be better for this country IMO.

You think RFK (and environmental lawyer) is going to appoint Constitutionalists to the Federal and Supreme Courts?

If they lock up Trump, I’m voting DeSantis or Vivek (maybe).
RFK seems very reasonable but he’s a Democrat.
No thanks.

Credit card debt is not dischargeable in bankruptcy. (News to me.)

They changed the law a couple of years ago.

Serial bankruptcies cost the banks too much.

Onvacation says

I don't think it will be so much civil war as revolution. Remember, Biden wasn't elected, and the majority of the population just hates the government and doesn't bother to vote knowing they have no representation.

If the "conservatives" want to win the revolution, they better align themselves with the REAL disenfranchised, that means blue collar workers struggling to make ends meet - not trannies and homosexuals although let the trannies and homosexuals come along. Who cares what they do in their privacy of their own bedroom, there's only a few assholes among them insisting to read to children in libraries, and demanding people to bake cakes for them.

Good statement of the situation by RFK Jr:

American Values advances my lifelong battle against the corrupt merger between state and corporate power that has subverted America’s once exemplary democracy.

It exposes the corporations that poison our children, commoditize our landscape and our people, privatize the commons, and corrupt government officials.

It calls out the governmental regulatory agencies that are supposed to protect us from toxic pollution, theft, and injury, but instead are captured by the very industries they are supposed to regulate.

👀 Robert F. Kennedy Jr on the New Tricks the DNC is Pulling, Says He May Need to ‘Look at Other Alternatives’

“They’ve made rules that if any candidate sets foot in the state of Iowa or sets foot in the state of New Hampshire, then none of the votes that are cast for that candidate will be tallied. In other words any delegate that I win in New Hampshire or Iowa would go instead to the President…If you add up all the super-delegates that they control, and all of the automatic delegates that just go to the party, I would have to win almost 80% of all the states”

@kattitfortat

They made @TulsiGabbard disappear. Bernie Sanders they bought off. Then they appointed a VP NO ONE voted for, wanted, even in true blue democrat heaven CA, to where she had to drop out of the presidential race in embarrassing fashion but then was rewarded to second top job and they called it “democracy”. And we’re still supposed to believe, given how they treat their own DEMOCRAT candidates, that they play fair against a republican candidate and that the “rigging elections game” is their first rodeo? Was the Time magazine article not clear enough when bragging how they “fortified” the 2020 election? I guess they’ll just keep fortifying and fortifying and fortifying until every Republican, candidate or citizen, is doing life in prison. Just a despicable mafia is what they are. A normal old/fashioned mafia at least protects their own and keeps up some semblance of loyalty.

RFK Jr. Telegraphs Threat To Abandon Democrat Party

Kennedy says the system is totally rigged. Even if he won 80% of the popular vote in the primaries, Biden would still be awarded the nomination. In short, RFK Jr. has no chance to secure the nomination.

If he were to bolt and run as an Independent, which he should, it would do so much damage that it might destroy the crooked Democratic Party for years to come.

Never, in all the civics lessons in all the schools in America, did the teacher add “except for in states that the President lost in the previous election.” Never, in all the glorious retellings of our fight for universal voting rights, has any teacher added, “and the decision of the people should be overturned if it doesn't comply with the preference of the ruling elites.” Yet this is exactly the new page in history that the DNC's pending rules propose, casting out New Hampshire’s votes, limiting ballot access in Iowa, and deploying party operatives to water down the popular vote and ensure a controlled victory.

Equally disheartening is the DNC’s refusal to hold debates. The matter of precedent is spurious, as there has been no serious primary challenge to an incumbent in more than 40 years. (Although Al Gore, a sitting vice-president, did debate challengers in 2000.) Voters deserve — and democracy requires — a competitive process by which to determine nominees. It should be a party’s voters who choose a candidate, not party insiders who anoint one.

The DNC and the Joe Biden campaign have essentially merged into one unit, financially and strategically, despite the promise of neutrality in its charter and bylaws. The DNC is not supposed to favor one candidate over another. It is supposed to oversee a fair, democratic selection process, and then support the candidate that its voters choose. ...

To my dear family of fellow public servants and caretakers of democracy, I would like to offer a heartfelt invitation. Please, lead by example and hold the most transparent, equal, accessible, and accountable election that has ever been seen in this country. You have the power to do this. You have the power to restore the faith of the people — faith in the Democratic Party, and faith in democracy itself.

He's talking to the mafia. Not going to work.

https://reportfromplanetearth.substack.com/p/the-struggle-for-democracy

An Economist/YouGov poll provided a stunning revelation about the favorability of presidential contenders and who would likely become president if the electoral process was not encumbered by a divisive process. Among all Americans, regardless of party affiliation, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has the highest ratings above every candidate — surpassing both Donald Trump and Joe Biden.

A subsequent Harvard-Harris poll of registered US voters on the Favorability of Political Figures confirmed similar profound results.

A few news articles reported these meaningful findings, although both surveys have been virtually ignored. Mr. Kennedy’s name was not included in a later Gallup poll of popular newsmakers, confirming a disinterest in acknowledging the preferred candidate of the majority of Americans.

Coverage of the surveys simply twisted words, exposing a desperate attempt by mainstream news to blur the truth. In a bizarre story, Newsweek magazine announced that Robert Kennedy Jr. Would Be Winning 2024 if it Was a Popularity Contest. In an effort to deflect the importance of the data, the article diminishes the relevance of its headline and attempts to reduce the viability of the Kennedy campaign.

The sum of what a candidate presents to the public, including personality and platform, determines the ultimate elements of their popularity. The Economist and Harvard polls present a reality that won’t be disguised or repressed. The numbers clearly indicate a preference for Mr. Kennedy’s leadership; reinforcing the fact that the current electoral process is engineered to betray the will of the people.

https://vigilantnews.com/post/rfk-jr-identifies-the-real-shooter-behind-his-fathers-death

“The real shooter was behind my father,” claimed Kennedy.

“That man is Thane Eugene Cesar.” Cesar “was a security guard who worked for Lockheed [Martin]. He was a CIA operative. He was a vocal, vocal racist who hated the Kennedys. And he had been the one who led my father through the kitchen toward the ambush.”

And no doubt it was the CIA or FBI who arranged for all of this.

Deep State Assassination Plot Thwarted? Heavily Armed Man With U.S. Marshals Badge Tried to Infiltrate RFK Jr’s Detail
by J. D. Rucker

Joe Biden, his regime, and the Deep State puppet masters controlling Washington DC all want primary Democrat rival Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., assassinated. There is no other possible reason why they would leave him out to dry as the only major presidential candidate in history to not be granted Secret Service protection since Kennedy’s own father was assassinated as the frontrunner in 1968.

Biden wants him out of the way. Big Pharma wants him silenced. Ukrainian oligarchs want him to stay away from their gravy train. The DNC wants him to move along. Therefore, the Deep State wants to solve all of their problems by eliminating him forever.

@RobertKennedyJr

I’m very grateful that alert and fast-acting protectors from Gavin de Becker and Associates (GDBA) spotted and detained an armed man who attempted to approach me at my Hispanic Heritage speech at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in Los Angeles tonight. The man, wearing two shoulder holsters with loaded pistols and spare ammunition magazines was carrying a U.S. Marshal badge on a lanyard and beltclip federal ID. He identified himself as a member of my security detail. Armed GDBA team members moved quickly to isolate and detain the man until LAPD arrived to make the arrest. I’m also grateful to LAPD for its rapid response.

I’m still entertaining a hope that President Biden will allow me Secret Service protection. I am the first presidential candidate in history to whom the White House has denied a request for protection.

What a Coincidence – Potential RFK Jr Assassin Had Same Last Name as El Chapo’s Wife, Who Was Released from Federal Prison The Day Before

The potential assassin who was stopped by RFK Jr security has been identified. His name is Adrian Paul Aispuro (44). {link} Keep in mind the incident happened on Thursday Sept 14, and the potential assassin had a U.S. Marshals badge.

One day earlier, Sept 13th, Mexican Cartel Leader El Chapo’s wife was released from federal prison. “We can confirm Emma Coronel Aispuro released from the custody of the Federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP) today, September 13, 2023.” {link}

INTO THE RABBIT HOLE – Now, I’m not saying they are related, and I’m not even saying there were any connections between them. However, think about the way the U.S. govt (CIA) carries out domestic assassinations using unwitting patsies. If RFK Jr had been assassinated, Adrian Paul Aispuro would be the perfect patsy.

Patrick says

Adrian Paul Aispuro would be the perfect patsy.

Prolly MKUltra'd. However, it is rumored that the MKUltra brainwashed gorks can't shoot straight, they just lift and pull the trigger in the whatever direction. The actual assassins, as with RFK, deliver the kill shot during the confusion, then exfiltrate rapidly while the patsy takes all the attention.

I'm learning skeet shooting - I agree. You need really good eye-hand coordination. If you are the least distracted, you fuck up. This is skeet shooting at about 10 yards. I shoot with Korean and 'Nam vets, some of whom were ranger snipers. Rifle at 1000 yards is way more difficult that simply pulling a trigger. Anyone is who is fucked up CANNOT make the shot unless it's million to one dumb luck.
