It's not just a Campaign, it's a Civil Response to a Coup d'Etat
After 60 years of prevaricating politicians, are we ready for the truth? The success of RFK Jr.'s run for office is a test of the American people more than anything else.
Something remarkable happened just down the road from me last week. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told a large group of supporters he was running for the office of President in 2024. I didn’t go. I wish I did. That’s a pretty big statement coming from me, a person who strives to live his life without regrets.
I have had several conversations with friends who were there. I’ve also watched the entire event here:
Though not in attendance, I am compelled to write something about it because it is vitally important that as many people as possible become aware of what is happening outside the spotlight of corporate funded media.
My friend, Robert Forte, summed it up insightfully: “This isn’t just a campaign. This is a civil response to a coup d’Etat.”
If that statement seems like an overly polemic critique of what is going on in the world I suggest backing up a bit and checking to make sure you have connected the dots correctly. This requires devoting some of your attention away from legacy media because they are the primary conspirators in a decades-long attack on the public.
I trust that many readers are aware of this, to some degree or another. That’s great. It might be helpful to share this with a friend who believes that if the New York Times tells them that Kennedy’s run for office is no more than a publicity stunt for anti-vax misinformation spreaders then it must be true.
It is vitally important that we begin to have conversations about what Kennedy is trying to tell us. Corporate greed has gone unchecked. They hide (often barely) their machinations through their control of media and governmental officials who do their bidding through bailouts, agency capture and collusion with social media platforms to squelch dissenting opinions.
We can debate who is actually behind this coup, but the mainstream media cannot be exonerated from their role in turning a country founded on the truth that we are endowed with unalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness into a plutocracy. One has to look no further than the last three years to see that these very unalienable rights endowed to us by our creator, as America’s founding fathers professed, could be stripped from us without a hearing or public debate. A free and independent press was supposed to prevent such things from ever happening here.
Nearly overnight, businesses were shut down, travel was restricted, people were confined to their homes waiting for a “vaccine” that was barely tested and irresponsibly authorized while scientists and doctors who were qualified to speak were censored and brutally attacked by a media engine that only granted legitimacy to the medical orthodoxy, a wing of the Pharmaceutical Industrial Complex that has very deep pockets and influential operatives inside our agencies of public health.
How do we make sure this never happens again? Kennedy has an idea. It begins with healing the divides between us. It’s a necessary first step because a system which oppresses the average citizen requires there to be a divided populace to persist. How does he intend to pull this off?
He’s going to tell the truth.
But how will people know what the truth is? I suggest it has a lot to do with intuition.
Kennedy believes the American people will know the truth when they hear it. It’s a radical departure from how our government operates now, using scripted statements to respond only to preselected, soft-ball questions from a press that gets paid handsomely by their sponsors to not do their job of protecting the public from tyranny.
It’s going to be an experiment in truth-telling. The only way we will know if it will work is if we let this man speak. Corporate media will not give him a platform. The DNC has already signaled that if Joe Biden runs for a second term they will not be holding primary debates. Kennedy is asking us to step up and share his message with each other. Ultimately the success of his campaign for POTUS will be as much a test of the American people than anything else.
Other Perspectives
I have come across some insightful essays about what his run for the Oval Office means for this country and yes, for the world. I will share them below with brief excerpts that may encourage you to read further.
Here is an excerpt from an essay, “Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: To Heal the Great Divide” written by Edward Curtin, published a day before RFK Jr. publicly announced his candidacy. Curtin contextualizes the significance of Kennedy’s bid for the presidency and the parallels and differences between today’s America and the one his father addressed 55 years ago. (Emphasis is mine)
“Despite a family actively opposed to his candidacy, despite all the media lies about him, and despite the odds makers giving him little chance, RFK, Jr. is entering the race. It is an act of supreme moral courage.
Like his father in ’68, he is the only candidate who can heal this nation’s great divide.
That he is opposed by a huge array of people who will lie about him because he is a truthteller does not deter him. Those lies immediately started up again as soon as word got out that he might run. It’s an old story.
Trash will be thrown at him. Every blemish of his nearly seventy years will be dredged up to paint him as a villain, a flawed man, a hypocrite – name all the negative terms you can think of and the real hypocrites, in their self-righteous rage, will use them against him. They will bounce off him. He is ready.”
Curtin correctly predicts that the mudslinging will begin immediately, but unlike most candidates running for public office, Kennedy was quick to acknowledge that he hasn’t led an exemplary life by certain people’s standards:
“I got so many skeletons in the closet that if they could vote, I could be king of the world.”
Mainstream media has been condemning Kennedy by citing the fact that some members of his family disagree with him on key points. He once again openly addressed this criticism while pointing out the frivolousness of such an attack. His sarcasm drew much laughter from his audience:
“I'm going to make a confession because I know most American families, they never have any differences with each other. So when that happens with a family, it's really huge news, like everywhere."
Media hit squads are probably beginning to understand the formidable challenge Kennedy presents. How will they defame a highly intelligent and articulate person who has nothing to hide and nothing to lose without sacrificing what little credibility they still have?
These are excerpts from a piece by James Howard Kunstler (emphasis his):
“I think RFK, Jr. sees very clearly the historical moment he represents. He’s keenly aware of the shade thrown over this land by the murders of his father and President Kennedy, and he has said flat-out in so many words that our own CIA was behind the dastardly acts. He’s been in a position to know the animus between JFK and the founding director of the CIA, Allen Dulles, and the reckless blunders of the agency and its partners in the Pentagon who buffaloed President Kennedy into the Bay of Pigs farce and then tried to drag him deeper into the Vietnam quagmire. JFK resisted that, threatened to shred the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter them to the four winds… and Allen Dulles whacked him. He got away with it the same way that today’s Intel “community” got away with RussiaGate and all their subsequent crimes. In short, Bobby Kennedy knows what it looks like when a government is at war against its own people.
Everybody I know is justifiably worried that the Intel spooks might have no qualms about whacking Bobby Jr. He is at least as dangerous to the establishment today as his father and uncle were back in their day. Thus, his bravery in stepping up now, knowing what he knows. At the least, he will drag a set of issues into the political arena that his rivals would prefer to keep out in the cold and dark. He’ll get some assistance from events themselves, which are spooling out fast now.
Most of all, the Democratic Party faces a severe reformation. It’s about to be dragged kicking and screaming out of the diabolical Woke hall-of-mirrors it gamboled into under the Clintons and Barack Obama. How those characters deal with the uncomfortable reality of RFK, Jr. will be something to behold. Finally, there is the news, straight from The New York Times, that “Joe Biden” intends to announce his reelection plans within days. The idea is preposterous, of course, the old grifter visibly oxidizing a little more each day in plain sight of the whole world.
In fact, it’s just another one of their lies, another trip they’re laying on America. The establishment Dems are actually prepping Gavin Newsom to run, another haircut-in-search-of-a-brain, like John Kerry before him. Governor Newsom: the man who almost overnight proudly turned California into a third world shithole. That’s who Bobby Kennedy will be debating, one way or another, in the many months ahead. Whether Americans handle the truth remains to be seen.”
In this clip, independent journalist Kim Iversen gives us her take of Kennedy’s speech in Boston:
Is Kennedy’s rise inevitable?
Are we watching something inevitable unfold in front of us?
Astrologers are warning that we are entering a period of great transformation. Pluto is in the sign of Aquarius. This means that Pluto has returned to the same position it was in 248 years ago. According to Google:
“Pluto represents death and rebirth. Aquarian energy is cutting edge and inventive, pushing us to progress as a whole society. We'll be in a unique position to find unity where it matters most, though there will likely be major pushback and conflict before resolution is found.”
The last time Pluto was where it is now, the world was witness to transformative events that led to the dismantling of authoritarianism at the hands of patriots and populism (both the American and French Revolution occurred then).
Interestingly, that period also saw the birth of vaccinology. In 1796, eight year old James Phipps was injected with material from a cowpox sore and then was shown to be immune to smallpox.
Kennedy may not be the instigator of a political and social movement as much as he is a spokesperson for those who are ignored, injured or unknowingly trapped in a system that is designed to erode our well-being and prosperity, our liberties and our individual self-determination. He didn’t orchestrate this movement. He has emerged at the proper time to lead it.
As the unwavering voice of the unheard, Kennedy ironically suffers from spasmodic dysphonia, a condition where involuntary contractions of the tiny muscles that control his vocal cords result in wavering tonality when he speaks.
Is it an impediment as his critics tell us? It depends. Anybody who wishes to be lulled to sleep by platitudes spoken in rich baritone can find as much as they desire on network programming that serves up a daily buffet of such options. That’s not his audience.
His message is for those who choose content over packaging. In exchange for your attention, Kennedy shows you how a man with a shaky voice and unshakeable convictions can deliver, without notes or a teleprompter, a ninety-minute-long call to action woven into a history lesson—a real history lesson. He speaks to those who are ready to really listen.
What are your thoughts?
If the MSM is against I am for him. He needs to come out early and refute some of the stupid green energy policies being forced down our throats if he truly wants to cross over to both sides.
Thank you for this thoughtful analysis, Madhava. The people of the world will rejoice in the leadership of RFK, Jr. He has passed the truth-telling test by warning about vaccines and fighting for the environment and children's health, while never budging during the tsunami of smears he received. But he is deeply knowledgeable about all the important issues we face today. His truth telling will shake up a lot of people, but he has the capacity to do this in a non-divisive way. The DNC will play its dirty tricks to excoriate him as they did with Bernie Sanders and Tulsi Gabbard, but I am thrilled he is stepping into the ring to rehabilitate our failing republic and our captured agencies.
