Who knows you better than the family you grew up with? You might not remember the letter Caroline Kennedy wrote to the US Senate in January about Robert F. Kennedy Jr.or Bobby, as she called him. But it was vitally important then, and it remains so nowbecause she was speaking not as a political actor but as RFK Jr.s cousin, someone she grew up with and has known all her life. Heres Caroline Kennedys stark conclusion:
Earlier in her letter, Kennedy said, I have known Bobby my whole life; we grew up together. Its no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets, because he himself is a predator. These words are shocking; all the more so because this is one family member rendering this judgment about another family member. Imagine what it would take to talk like this, so publicly, about someone you have known forever.
We cant say we werent warnedand the truth of Caroline Kennedys words rings louder with each passing day. Last week at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, we saw this predator in action. Over the past few months, RFK Jr. has brought the internationally renowned agency to its knees.
He has proposed cutting the agencys budget by close to 50 percent, destroyed programs responsible for monitoring maternal health and lead poisoning of children in the US at CDC, disbanded the Center for Forecasting and Outbreak Analytics and the Division of Environmental Health Science and Practice within the National Center for Environmental Health, which is meant to keep our water safe to drink and address environmental causes of childhood asthma. In an article in April, reporters at Wired documented the thousands of CDC employees who had been laid off, endangering these programs and others serving millions of Americans.

I guess she must have been on location filming her latest short subject; "Why the F**k Did I Tank What Shiity Career I Had Left For This Cankle Lover?"

Quite apropos, and I plan to use it. He doesn't deserve to be associated with his father's name.

The billionaires want the population culled. Babies, children, elderly and homeless first. The medical advances are almost to the point of a lot longer lifespan. Reverse aging. Transplants for the wealthy. Using crypto currency of course so no record of transactions.
