RFK Jr is doing yeoman work. He is exposing the corrupt Oligarchs/Establishment who run the Democrat party - very much against the wishes of many they claim to represent.
A lot of his voters will vote for Trump when the Democrat Party inevitably screws him over just like they did with Bernie.
Im no Biden fan. BUT if RFK Jr was the only dem candidate, we’d be just as if not more concerned than the Times. His only charm to us is he attacks Biden from the left and is antivax. That’s all he brings to the table. For now he’s noise and I guess the game plan is to exploit it.
RFK Jr., like Trump, isn't controlled by the political establishment so he's threat to the political elite.
And, for the millionth time, ALL roads of the corruption we're seeing LEAD TO Ukraine and the money laundering operation there. And, that is what the proxy war we started there is all about.
So, as much as it pains me, I might have to temporarily register as a Democrat here in the People’s Republic of Oregon, just so I can vote for Bobby Jr., (against Joetato). If Bobby would come to Portland and walk the streets, he might be able to get enough homeless to vote for him too.
THEIR “democracy”. It’s their club, we’re not in it.
You don’t even have a functioning republic with the deep state controlling and running America’s future
Biden doesn’t run anything in comparison, he’s just a straw man in honor of what we used to have.
Obama weaponized the old agencies and added a bunch more and installed them so they would meet their objectives irrespective of whoever was in the oval office.
America is just waking up to the shadow government which is Obama’s third term.
You have to hand it to Obama, he exacted a bulletless coup to insure his death to America agenda.
We see it from another perspective in their endless and mindless persuit of President Trump leaving no stone unturned. In this we get to see the bredth and depth of the deep state’s abuses of power and corruption.
Anything that threatens “YOUR” democracy is a good thing.
And all he is doing is showing up and making sense.
We better hope he does not win the primaries- because democrats are stupid enough to think he represents all democrats, talking sense like that
We need to go to ALL the hard core democrat strongholds and encourage people to get out and vote democrat so they can all become gay and make their children trans!
I agree that the original Constitution was written so that we would have a constitutional republic with three federal branches limited in power. However, since the Civil War, that has been incrementally dismantled.
In the twentieth century through progressive legislation we evolved into a more direct democracy when the election of Senators by state legislatures was discontinued and a federal income tax implemented which provided elected officials with access to huge amounts of money for the first time in US history. A professional standing military was organized and an intelligence agency created which has no legal controlling authority over it, except the elected executive.
Now in the twenty-first century, the executive branch has so engulfed the other federal branches through its bureaucracies, that not only do they legislate in spite of Congress, but they are hardly even accountable to the actual “elected” executive who is supposed to be their administrator. The gigantic military/intelligence industrial complex, which has become increasingly aggressive since the world wars, now swallows up more than the income taxes collected annually. Yet Congress’ only solution seems to be to fund ever larger defense budgets and create endless entitlements to keep the taxpayers pacified.
So when the Democrats (and Republicans, too!) scream RFKjr. is a threat to “our democracy” - they mean he is determined to end their dismantling of the US Constitution and cut off their supply of free monies.
Anything the LA Times, or any leftist for that matter, claims is “a threat to our democracy” has my undying support.
Any time you see the term “threat to democracy” used, replace the word “democracy” with “unelected DC Uniparty” and you’ve pretty much got the truth.
I’m pretty sure we became something of a Democracy in 1913 with the seventeenth amendment allowing We The People to directly vote for US senators. It changed the power structure of fedgov overnight as well as take power away from the state governments.
This hostility seems to drive home the point that the Democrat Party has become either Authoritarian and or Marxist.
So, one of the largest, most prominent newspapers in America, itself a CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER TO OUR FREE REPUBLIC, calls RFK Jr. a threat?
LOL!
THE HYPOCRISY IS LAUGHABLE!
LA times is a threat to Civics 101.
It has been observed, by an honorable gentleman, that a pure democracy, if it were practicable, would be the most perfect government. Experience has proved that no position in politics is more false than this. The ancient democracies, in which the people themselves deliberated, never possessed one feature of good government. Their very character was tyranny; their figure, deformity.
-Alexander Hamilton speaking in support of the new US Constitution.
So, as much as it pains me, I might have to temporarily register as a Democrat here in the People’s Republic of Oregon, just so I can vote for Bobby Jr., (against Joetato). If Bobby would come to Portland and walk the streets, he might be able to get enough homeless to vote for him too.
To the extent that the American system has democratic elements in it, it’s not anyone’s property. It’s not “our” democracy or “your” democracy. It doesn’t carry anyone’s brand.
Threat to ‘Our Democracy’
i thought that was Trump???
