There is a scene is an old movie about Cromwell (Richard Harris) in which Cromwell points his finger a member of Parliament and says, “You have enriched yourself through your office, Sir!”

And the Parliamentarian looks startled and says, “Why, of course! Why else would I be in politics?”

The Biden Crime Family is not even in it for ideological reasons. They readily switch their “belief system” to whichever serves their purposes of the moment. It is the money alone that comes along with a total lack of morality.

The Kennedy family differed in that their wealth was accrued through bootlegging, not politics, and Joe the Senior moved into politics once the wealth was built up. The Kennedys could afford to keep an ideology they already had developed, but since they were essentially outsiders, the Deep State that existed then had to wipe them out once they got into positions of leadership. JFK and RFK Senior were both assassinated under circumstances never fully revealed.

Perhaps the same implicit threat is hanging over RFK Junior, which is part of the reason his campaign is still running in the shadows.
