The least worthy eulogist at Ethel Kennedy's funeral
American Thinker ^ | 10/17/2024 | John F. Di Leo

The most shocking news story of the year won’t be identified as such on any major news network.

It wasn’t the blockbuster announcement of drug and pedophilia allegations around music mogul Sean “P. Diddy” Combs; you expect such things from the rap crowd.

It wasn’t the announcement that the powerful longshoremen’s union, run by Harold “I Will Cripple You!” Daggett decided to postpone their multi-coastal port strike -- after just three days -- until after the election; you expect union bosses and Democrat politicians to do favors for each other, they’ve been partners in crime for a century.

No. The most shocking news story of the year was that Pretender-in-Chief Joe Biden gave one of the eulogies at the public memorial service of Ethel Skakel Kennedy, at the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle in Washington D.C.

To those who follow the Kennedy clan, this shouldn’t have been a shock. The Kennedy family has been Democrat party royalty for more than 70 years now. As a family that produced ambassadors, a president, and a few senators, and congressmembers, it makes sense that its matriarch’s funeral would attract the shining lights of the party.

But there’s a problem this year.

Ethel Skakel Kennedy and the late Sen. Robert F. Kennedy had eleven children, one of whom – the second oldest male, named for his father, has himself been in the news quite a bit this year.

Her son, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., ran for president in 2024.

First, he attempted to run in the Democrat primaries, in keeping with the family’s long tradition of staying with the party no matter what. But the party didn’t take kindly to RFK Jr.’s audacity in challenging their doddering incumbent, so he was forced to switch to an independent campaign.

Challenging Joe Biden made him persona non grata to the official Democrat party hierarchy, despite his lifetime of loyalty and service.

Throughout the process, again and again, the Biden-Harris administration refused every RFK Jr. campaign request for the proper Secret Service protection appropriate for a major presidential candidate, until tardily shamed into it by the attempted assassination of President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania.

When RFK Jr. suspended his campaign and began the process of surgically deciding in which states he would remain on the ballot, and in which states he would be removed, both he and his running mate, Nicole Shanahan, made it clear that the vindictive, tyrannical behavior of the Biden White House was a major driver in their choices, both to drop out and to do whatever they could to help the Trump ticket win.

Prayers for RFK Jr. and the redemption and healing of the Kennedy legacy of both public and private life.

“despite his lifetime of loyalty and service”

Who knows how many times biden was on the dispensing end of stabbing someone in the back politically.....
Now he’s on the receiving end.

I don’t believe in karma but I do believe life can have a way of catching up to a person and paying ‘em back for misdeeds.

As far as I’m concerned he’s getting exactly what he deserves.

When Biden, Obama and the Clintons leave this earth it will be glorious. May they suffer painfully in the meantime.

RFKjr’s own family isn’t speaking to him since he endorsed Trump, so the point of this article is moot.
