An evil woman who clearly wants to end gay marriage

Her speech at the event RFK Jr refused to attend

I guess this is a couple of weeks old now, but I missed it when it happened...

 

The short version:

@BillboardChris

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is lying through his teeth.

In this video clip, he denies knowledge of his involvement in accepting an invite to the Moms for Liberty summit, and blames it on a female staffer.

@RobertKennedyJr spoke on the phone with Moms for Liberty co-founder @4TiffanyJustice about his attendance.

His campaign manager, Dennis Kucinich, spoke with her about it twice.

Emails from his team were sent. His campaign sent a picture of RFK Jr. for Moms for Liberty to use in their promotion.

Furthermore, the questioner in this video is also lying. Moms for Liberty does not want to stop gay marriage.

This is an outrageous lie, yet RFK Jr. responds by saying “When I found out that was their position, I declined to go.”

This is pure and simple defamation. Moms for Liberty has never said a thing about taking away gay rights.

A senior member of @Moms4Liberty’s national team is a lesbian.

Jaimee Michell, founder of Gays Against Groomers, is speaking at their summit.

This is yet another despicable attempt to smear an amazing group of mothers who are fighting to stop the indoctrination and harm of our children.

RFK Jr. owes Moms for Liberty a public apology.

Some pragmatism from the main link:

The truth of the matter is that nobody actually believes RFK Jr. has any shot at beating Biden. But just by being Biden’s worst nightmare on issues like vaccines, Covid, free speech, and the war in Ukraine, he is at least serving a useful purpose in our political system. So we’ll keep cheering on RFK Jr. despite the flaws. After all, you can’t agree with everybody on everything.

I agree with the pragmatic take. The chances of him becoming the Dem nominee are nil but it's good to have him out there saying what he's saying; most of it I agree with and it really, really needs to be said.

It's equally unlikely that 3rd party candidate Cornel West will prevail in the election but again, I will support him because of the issues he's running on. Unless they manage to eff up the rules in my state (which I don't put past them), West will be the alternative to Biden. But if they do manage to keep him off the ballot, I'll either skip that line or vote for one of the other non-Dem candidates.

Yeah, I just found it funny given how enamored of him Republicans have been - and still are! I don't think many people know about this, all those cheers at the Turning Point event the other day would suggest not, anyway.

There is a way that this effect could be worked to his advantage. A thing he could be (and should be) saying:

"...something something can find common ground."

There are more things in which we can agree on than a great many people want you to realize. There are many things with which you can find common ground with those on what you have been told is "the other side." The people you have almost, but not quite, been told are "the enemy."

Have you ever considered why people would tell you that? Why they would want to keep you from people that you actually agree with on certain issues? Have you ever considered that maybe it's because the ones telling you this do not agree with you (and not with those people on "the other side" either) on those issues?
