@Brian:
Nicole Shanahan: "Confirming: We are NOT in talks with Harris. Speaking personally, they are a lost cause. Literally.".
Kennedy: “Yeah that’s fake news. I didn’t ask Kamala Harris for a cabinet position.”
One must be careful. The Washington Post is compromised. You are being lied to repeatedly, and it's clearly not by accident.
@Dave: I relent. Hopefully Mr. Byrne allows it.
Here's a half-dozen of RFK Jr's talking-points off the top of my head that resonate with me. Most importantly, he's got all the little details at the tip of his tongue if you listen to him in long-form podcasts. He is 100x sharper and better informed than either of the other two candidates, in my opinion. He's gotten over 1 million signatures to get on the ballot in all 50 states (despite the Dems suing him repeatedly to kick him off). He has almost 50% of the under 35 vote per Zogby poll with 0.5% error margins. He can win if he could just break through to the boomers, but the MSM won't allow it (e.g. excluded from debates & presidential commission rules by-passed for the first time since the early 80s!).
1) reign in federal debt (now increasing $1 trillion/100 days) before servicing debt swamps all other budget items. He plans to reduce military spending to peak cold-war levels adjusted in 2024 dollars or roughly $500 billion. We have over 800 overseas bases (china+russia have ~3 combined). End forever wars and stop attempting to be a global empire. Also, move away from fiat-currency controlled by the Fed Reserve money-printing machine via bitcoin and move the federal budget onto blockchain for transparency. The notion of the US creating a large bitcoin reserve is actually the only solution to the $32T debt I've hear (other than letting the economy eat it via hyperinflation) and its rather brilliant, because once the world see the US move in that direction, it will drive the cost of bitcoin up and begin reducing our debt. The age of soft money has played out. An informative series of videos (8) on global economics: this.
2) break the CIA apart in counter-intelligence and operations division so that an independent assessment of operations (and specifically unintended blow-back) can be made. Stop doing dirty tricks abroad and restore our moral authority. Reverse the 2015 law that allowed the CIA to now do domestic propaganda and surveillance. Break up the deep-state stranglehold on governance and specifically foreign policy. His father believed the CIA was involved in his uncle's assassination. I believe he has a personal axe to grind (WHICH IS GREAT!) against the intelligence agencies.
3) end the forever wars (Iraq->Afghanistan->Ukraine->Iran?), stop feeding the military-industrial complex, and restore our morale authority around the world. Like JFK with the Peace Corp, he wants the world to think of something other than a soldier when they think of "Americans".
4) use fed resources to find the root causes of chronic disease (solely!) in the US. Huge spike started in 1991 (per EPA report), but we don't know why. Remove the incentive from the 80's for NIH to be a phrama drug factory by undoing the executive order that allows NIH employees to financial benefit from patents & refocus the agency on determining why the US has many times the chronic disease number (food allergies etc.) of Europe and even the 3rd world. I have come to believe a large portion of the US food supply has been subtly poisoned. Big pharma is also 75% of the ad revenue to mainstream news. We are one of only 2 Western countries (with New Zealand) that allows drugs to be advertised---that started (on TV) in the 80s.
5) A strong environmental champion and a focus on regenerative farming techniques. No one else is talking about this.
6) Being the constitutional amendment process in the states to overturn Citizen's United and get dark money out of politics. Makes a great analogy between the Guilded Age robber barons and the law passed in 1909 to prevent their political influence by capping donations --- effectively overturned precisely 100 years later by CU in 2009.
7) Specific plan to break up equity firms rising strangle-hold on the housing market by low-interest loans available solely to single-family first-time home buyers. Home equity is the spring board to small business grow, since that is often the collateral for start-up loans. Restoring the middle-class is a top objective of his.
8) Constitutionalist: Having been censored/de-platformed by Biden admin within 58 hours of their administration's taking office, he is unwavering on his defense for free speech and against regime censorship. Did you realize we are the ONLY country in the world with a free speech constitutional right. Not a single "free" state in Europe! Free speech is the bedrock of all other rights. A free and open internet was thought to be an asset by our State Dept. and a hallmark of the West --- until 2016 when populism became the newly perceived enemy-within (e.g. Brexit/Trump). Mike Benz has studied the rise of western internet censorship. Look him up. See also Kennedy vs. Biden (Missouri) lawsuit. Also Twiitter-gate 1.0 and 2.0.
Kennedy is plugged in and on the leading-edge of these and other issues --- ahead of the Overton window and therefore often painted as a crack-pot by the (snarky) uninformed who hate being caught with their pants down.
