If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you're illiberal.
If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist.
If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a totalitarian.
If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you're a terrorist.
🚨JUST IN: 🇺🇸President Trump has directed the Presidential Working Group to move forward on a Crypto Strategic Reserve that includes $XRP, $SOL, and $ADA
Breaking: RFK Jr. says Trump has given him a position to help select his next administration:
"I've been asked to go onto the transition team, to help pick the people who will be running the government."
A modern day Team of Rivals is currently being built.
RFK Jr. was previously asked about how it felt to be condemned by his own family.
He told a story about how his father gave him a book just two weeks before he died.
RFK said he read the book multiple times, trying to figure out what lesson his dad wanted to give him.
Here is what he said:
"Camus had written this book called The Plague. My father gave it to me and he told me, with this kind of peculiar intensity, 'I want you to read this'."
"He said this with this directness that after he died, I ended up reading that book about three times, trying to figure out kind of what the message was that he was trying to give me."
Breakdown of the book:
- "The Plague" is set in a North African city hit by an unprecedented plague.
- The city is quarantined, and the story begins with a focus on the doctor's internal conflict.
- The doctor initially considers not helping because there is no treatment the unknown disease.
- Despite the risks, the doctor decides to comfort and serve the people.
- Camus, an existentialist, draws from Stoicism, focusing on duty and service.
- The doctor's actions bring order to the chaos, reflecting Stoic philosophy.
- RFK then discussed Sisyphus, a figure in Stoicism, who is happy despite his eternal, futile task.
- Sisyphus's happiness comes from fulfilling his duty (protecting people from a rolling stone), regardless of the outcome.
"For eternity [he] pushes a rock up a hill. He can never get it over the top. It always rolls back down and on top of him. And then he goes up and does it again," RFK said.
"Sisyphus is a happy man because he put his shoulder to the stone. He was given a duty and he does his duty. And that self-sacrifice that he makes, brings order to a chaotic universe."
"So for me to have kind of a concrete task that I know is right, and I'm open to criticism, I have a critical mind. If somebody shows me where I got it wrong, I'll change. I'm not dug in, I'm not hardheaded in that sense."
"But until somebody shows me that I'm gonna try to help these children and, you know, and I feel like it's a gift. So, and the more people that abuse me, the bigger the gift is in some way."

In the coming days and weeks, you will see gleeful announcements of "RFK JR. DROPS OUT" and "RFK JR. ENDORSES TRUMP" in the headlines.
Typical; with a total lack of nuance.
In reality, RFK Jr. just announced a "Unity Party" with Donald Trump.
Here's how it works:
RFK Jr. has decided to pull out of swing states while staying in the overall Presidential race.
He is doing this to avoid becoming a "spoiler candidate" in states where Harris has a chance of winning.
These states include Pennsylvania, Arizona, Iowa, and others still to be announced.
This "Unity Party" arrangement OPENS doors to more votes, by allowing for Republican voters in blue states to "count" for something.
Now, instead of a wasted vote for Trump, these voters can cast a vote for Kennedy, thereby establishing a 5% vote and creating a new third (and pro-America) party for 2028.
Earning him votes where he would not have gotten them, while ensuring he doesn't "spoil" critical swing states, is the best of both worlds.
Should independents turn out for Kennedy in states where he does have a strong chance at winning, there is the possibility of blocking Trump and Kamala from earning 270 electoral votes - which he only needs 5 states to do.
In this instance, where he wins 5 states, each state gets one vote. Throughout history, the moderate always wins (and Kennedy stands an excellent chance).
The actions taken by Kennedy today are historic and will ensure a robust third-party future for the United States.
We have desperately needed someone brave enough to make this choice.
The corporate stranglehold on the Republican and Democrat parties is obvious to all.
The same donors look to find puppets in both parties. Promises to "drain the swamp" are rarely followed up with, because the parties are the swamp.
This election, we can fix that for future generations.
Kennedy's campaign was the first step in this direction.
Building a strong Unity Party is the second.
Independents are ready to build a new future, and a new party.
Not one that is owned by banks or corporations...
But one reflecting us. We, the People.
It's time to come together. It's time to have unity. We can't live in our own little silos. It doesn't matter if you're a Republican, an independent, a lifelong Democrat. We have to come together to sit around the table to solve these 21st century issues: chronic disease, foreign conflict, securing the border, our education system. So it's time to have a meeting of the minds now more than ever.
MUST WATCH: Bobby Kennedy Breaks Down How to Make America Healthy Again
“We have almost a THOUSAND chemicals in our food that are either outright banned in Europe or actively discouraged”
@RobertKennedyJr
@VIVIPestilenz @mongo_ebooks This is fundamentally untrue. He left the democratic party to run independent several months BEFORE Biden even stepped down.
It's true. If Kennedy goes on the debate stage he will be our next President. The DNC, RNC, Harris, Trump, CBS, Fox, Meta, X, the oligarchy of billionaires backing the parties. They all know Kennedy would win and that is why stopping him is the only thing they agree to. Do you?
This case is an assault on New York voters who signed in record numbers to place me on their ballot. The DNC has become a party that uses lawfare in place of the democratic election process. We will appeal and we will win. 🇺🇸
To the Mainstream Media
Every time you write "roadkill," I will mention dirty C.I.A. regime-change wars and our $35 trillion debt.
Every time you write "barbecued goat," I will invoke normalized government censorship, vanishing topsoil, threatened wilderness, the epidemics of addiction and loneliness, the deaths of despair, and the world’s largest chronic disease burden.
Every time you write "vaccine crank,” I will remind you of an industry with a well-documented track record of putting profits before people, an industry with unreliable regulatory oversight, an industry which is one of the most powerful entities in the world.
Every time you write “fringe,” I will remind you of my pledge to heal the divide and center us in our shared humanity.
Every time you write "brain worm," I will mention our blundering foreign policy, which has helped bring our precious earth to the brink of World War III.
Your opportunistic fidelity to a monstrous status quo has turned you into the Red Herring Machine. The Defamation Industrial Complex. The Abettor of the Social Lie.
We are a beautiful but polarized and ailing nation.
The more you smear me, the more I'll keep speaking.
HAPPENING NOW: KENNEDY TAKES OVER DC! 🇺🇸
Dozens of “Kennedy Beats Trump” trucks are driving through the city and parking outside the Capitol and major new stations.
Billboards, bus stop signs, and screen displays are all over the city.
Rumors are that similar takeovers will soon be hitting New York City and other east coast locations! 👀
@RepMikeCollins That is a deeply offensive comment, Congressman. You should apologize not only to Bobby Kennedy but to every American for so degrading our public discourse.
That would be a great suggestion if you could assure that the industry you were representing wasn’t completely captured by heartless monsters who have a history of some of the biggest criminal fines in human history because their deception has cost hundreds of thousands of people their lives. It would be a great suggestion if the industry you were defending didn’t occasionally look at human beings as an opportunity to generate insane wealth regardless of the tragic consequences. But you can’t do that, so… maybe it would be a good idea to have a fucking debate.
