This is the most important 3 minutes you'll watch today about America's health crisis.
RFK explains how ultra processed food, seed oils, pesticides, and food additives are messing up kids.
"We are mass poisoning all of our children."
During my announcement speech more than a year ago, I said that I have so many skeletons in the closet that if they could vote, I would be king of the world. I knew much would be made of my past. I have been around politics. I know of its hazards. I also knew that my vision and policies would inspire resistance in the establishment.
When you declare yourself foe to widespread corporate-government corruption and declare yourself counter-friction to a runaway war machine (a war machine killing innocents and draining our country’s coffers), you will inspire resistance in the establishment. (Put another way, many powerful people want to make sure the gravy train never stops. And I derail gravy trains.)
When you point out the morbidity of our two-party system -- a system that our first president warned us about, a system that is now largely predicated on hating fellow humans -- you will inspire resistance in the establishment.
When you’ve spent much of your life successfully fighting against our biggest corporations and worst polluters; fighting against mining, timber, hydroelectricity, and oil industries on behalf of the voiceless and the indigenous; fighting against agribusiness barons blithely ravaging the lives of small farmers and small towns, you will inspire resistance in the establishment.
When you remind Americans that censorship and other curtailments of our civil liberties always arrive burnished with a moral and patriotic gloss, you will inspire resistance in the establishment.
When you invoke our crisis of meaning, our deaths of despair, the addiction, and the many children lost to screens, ill health, and ennui, you will inspire resistance in the establishment.
When you are wary of reductive partisan ideology and group-think; and when you refuse the common coin of today’s public discourse -- a glib second-rate cruelty delivered via the screen -- you will inspire resistance in the establishment.
When you assert that to better our country we must work toward a politics that heals this divide and affirms our mutual belonging, you will inspire resistance in the establishment.
As you perhaps know, I am used to such resistance -- used to the bile and malign distortions that accompany speaking out on high-stakes issues. And I know that the establishment’s treatment of me -- while challenging -- makes perfect sense.
The dark and elaborately refined arts of partisan politics deployed to end my campaign (the documented censorship and shadowbanning; the out-in-the-open, anti-democratic, and well-funded attempts to keep me off ballots through expensive, complex, time-consuming legal challenges; the thwarting of debate access; the withholding of secret service protection; the paid staged protests; the sundry campaigns of defamation and scandalmongering) are the logical reactions of a threatened -- and very unwell -- status quo.
And underneath all of this -- underneath much of this election cycle, underneath much of this moment in our nation’s politics -- is a sort of destitution. A destitution of heart. It’s no small wonder so many people have withdrawn from civic life and democracy altogether.
A broken bond needs to be reestablished in our country. We need more soul-searching and less partisan warfare. Our work as Americans, whether we like it or not, transcends all labels and all parties. It seems we will recognize this reality and act accordingly; or be broken into it. History is not made occasionally on great stages by the privileged few but made daily in the depths of each human soul.
Ours is a beautiful nation, still. According to the Internet, our country (and our world) founders in chaos. But in post offices, parks, grocery stores our beauty still heartens and shines. We all see it every day.
It is in the name of that beauty that I work.
It is in the name of that beauty that I run to be your next president.
The true power of America is not its comfort, wealth, or military might, but its ideals of liberty, democracy, and
generosity.
This campaign is about honoring and restoring those ideals -- regardless of the defamation, evasion, and trickery. We knew those were coming.
We will not be deterred on this necessary journey.
Most people by now have renounced racial hatred, gender hatred, and class hatred, but political hatred is fair game. Think about that. This hatred is really a society-sponsored bigotry, and it is deranging our nation.
Our division is the most urgent issue of this election, not only because it damages the soul of our nation but it prevents us from effectively addressing all the other issues.
Folks on the left judge me for appreciating folks on the right. Folks on the right judge me for appreciating folks on the left. If there is such a thing as guilt by association, then consider me guilty. Let's all be guilty in this way. Let's appreciate those we disagree with, spend time with them, understand where they are coming from. The people on the "other side" are rarely horrible people.
Big victory in the Kennedy v. Biden censorship case. A live injunction is in place preventing the Biden Administration from coercing or colluding with social media to censor me. You’d think that a President who has sworn to protect the Constitution wouldn’t need a court injunction to respect free speech. But such are the times we live in.
They tried to take away your independent choice for president and I'm not going to let them.
Watch the presidential debate as it is supposed to be and decide for yourself.

My party has lost its way. Here is my open letter to the DNC, urging it to “Please, lead by example and hold the most transparent, equal, accessible, and accountable election that has ever been seen in this country.” #Kennedy24

There are an infinite number of diets.
But there are only 3 basic macronutrients. And that means there are six basic dietary patterns.
We can debate the merits of these forever. But when it comes to body composition, one of these is clearly the worst—and one is the best.

Americans are eating more ultra-processed foods: 18-year study measures increase in industrially manufactured foods that may be contributing to obesity and other diseases -- ScienceDaily https://t.co/TiGMKExjWd
Imposing a top-down diet on all people, as the United Nations is on verge of approving (w/ quasi-vegetarian EAT-Lancet diet), would ultimately extinguish local, indigenous food cultures. EAT is led by a billionaire working with Davos elites + multinationals. Let's not be fooled.
