Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey and others are praising presidential candidate

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says childhood vaccines are linked to autism and that the Central Intelligence Agency killed his uncle. He has wondered out loud whether Wi-Fi exposure leads to cancer. Some of tech’s big stars are praising his campaign for president.

Silicon Valley loves a contrarian, which is why some tech luminaries threw their support to Republican Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020. This time around, Kennedy, a Democrat, is the one getting the antiestablishment buzz in the tech world.

He has a neurological issue that causes it to sound like that.

I didn’t think Biden was even going to be on the ballot until SC. In any case, Kennedy should take away both those states easily. He is already ahead by 35-40 points in New Hampshire.

his claim that he had sex with 31 women in one year while still married.

Yes, those Kennedy's have spread their seed. This might have had something to do with his wife committing suicide.

"Wasn’t RFK involved in Marilyn Monroe’s death?"

I had not heard that before, but it sure makes sense. This article about the Netflix documentary sheds a lot of light on that...

Was Robert Kennedy Responsible for Marilyn Monroe’s Death?
By Fletcher Peters
April 25, 2022

There is a slew of shocking revelations in Netflix’s explosive new doc The Mystery of Marilyn Monroe: The Unheard Tapes. Like, for example, Marilyn Monroe had a sexual obsession with her absent father. Seriously. More than anything in the world, one of her close friends says in the film, Monroe consistently revealed a strong desire to sleep with her dad.

“She said she’d want to put on a black wig, pick up her father at a bar, have him make love to her,” her friend Henry Rosenfeld recalls near the beginning of the film. “And then she’d say, ‘Well, how does it feel now to have a daughter that you’ve made love to?’”

It’s bizarre, but it’s not the most gut-wrenching story The Unheard Tapes digs up on the late movie star. The doc features unheard interviews with those who knew her best, piecing them together with research that covers Monroe’s entire life and stardom. It homes in on her death, pruning the biggest conspiracy theories—the Kennedys’ involvement, the Communist party, etc.—in order to find the truth of what happened.

Unlike many conspiracy theorists, Anthony Summers (author of Goddess, the Secret Lives of Marilyn Monroe) comes to a clear conclusion based on his findings, and the result is shocking. Based on his interview, the film insinuates that the Kennedys were involved with the superstar’s death.

After breezing past her relationship with Joe DiMaggio, The Unheard Tapes connects Monroe with both Robert and John F. Kennedy. Hildi and Joan Greenson—the wife and daughter of Monroe’s psychiatrist—describe “girly talk” with Monroe, in which the icon gossiped about a new man she was seeing called “The General.”

This was Attorney General Robert Kennedy, the start of her affairs with the famed political family. Actor and socialite Peter Lawford dedicated his time to “pimping for both Kennedys,” he says, which resulted in the connection between Monroe and the pair of brothers.

“You don’t think the brothers were sharing a lady?” Summers asks Jeanne Martin, Dean Martin’s wife, who used to attend Kennedy parties. “I do,” she responds, without any hesitation.

This brotherly love—try not to shudder at the thought—was only the start. Because of feuds between union leader Jimmy Hoffa and the Kennedys, the film alleges there were “numerous tapes” made of Monroe and JFK “in the act of lovemaking,” and even more featuring Robert. On the tapes, the film contends, Monroe is captured doing “cuddly talk,” “taking off her clothes,” and “the sex act in the bed.”

This seems to have been an open secret in Hollywood. Still, tensions continued to grow as Monroe’s suspected ties with the Communist Party started to be whispered about. In fear of Monroe exposing their political chats, the Kennedys cut all ties with the star.

“That’s what killed her,” longtime friend Arthur James hauntingly says. “I don’t care what anyone else says. It was the beginning of the last day, if you will.”

The Unheard Tapes then dives into the details of Monroe’s death. Was Monroe on her side? Her back? When was the call to 911 made? It leads up to a major revelation: Robert Kennedy was allegedly there, with Monroe, at the time of her death.

The doc goes step-by-step through the entire evening that Monroe died. The public version of her death doesn’t align with other accounts. Her housekeeper, for example, has given one version of the story, but investigators have poked holes in details like Monroe’s final resting position, whether or not she went to the hospital, and where, exactly, she died.

According to the film, the FBI was working to scrub Monroe’s death clean of any controversy. “My husband fudged everything off,” the widow of Monroe’s PR rep says, remembering the night her husband was whisked away from the Hollywood Bowl to deal with Monroe’s death. “Don’t forget, that was his business, to keep the press at bay. He kept everyone in abeyance.” The FBI “knew that they didn’t want Bobby Kennedy’s name brought into this.” According to law enforcement informant Harry Hall, Monroe’s death then became a “hush-hush” operation.

The most damning segment of the doc comes from Monroe’s housekeeper, Eunice Murray. After confirming the “important part” the Kennedys played in Monroe’s life, Murray alleges that Robert Kennedy was visiting the actress on the day of her death. “Oh, sure,” she says. “And it became so sticky that the protectors of Robert Kennedy, you know, had to step in there and protect him.”

The Unheard Tapes provides evidence proving Robert Kennedy was in Los Angeles on the night of her death. And Summers is convincing in his interview: “What the evidence suggests is that [her death] was covered up because of her connection with the Kennedy brothers.”


There's that FBI again, doing their usual dirty work to protect Democrats. Would they swing into action again to protect RFK Jr?

And, damn, there's Actor and socialite Peter Lawford acting as an early procurer for the rich and famous, just like Ghislaine Maxwell.

I think that you mean RFK, but to answer your question, that would be dependent on how malleable and money hungry RFK is. He has never spoken out the influence of the big money men, the globalists, on the future of our country.

I have never had much confidence in RFK’s intelligence, I never believed that vaccines caused autism. …but then autism is really undefinable. The Covid pandemic proved that the globalists are trying to use vaccines against the population, not to save it.

The GOP lost Silicon Valley forever back in the 90’s when Clinton took credit for the .com boom.
Silicon Valley engineers think the GOP is full of tech morons.
And they are correct.

Trump does, though, and that is what is important. The president even spoke out on the connection himself at least 3 times (according to RFK) during the last campaign.

Trump doesn’t expect people to take what he says literally. That is a big problem. The Covid vaccine is dangerous, but all vaccines are not comparably dangerous. RFK opposes ALL VACCINES.

It is dangerous to make rash generalizations either in support of someone or against someone because you will be held to those opinions. Trump does that too often.

Both RFK and Trump are bulls in a the china shop, randomly smashing things. Neither is under the control of anyone, or is interested listening to anyone. Loose cannons, for good and ill.

He’s anti-vax, and 1960s style ‘blue-dog’ Democrat. It’s going to be hard to find someone who fits into his values (no one in the Senate fits). Would not shock me if it were a non-politician.

“1960s style ‘blue-dog’ Democrat.”

I don’t remember the blue-dog democrats being autocratic global-warming ambulance-chasing nutters.

He has talked several times already about wanting safety tested vaccines (when asked) not doing away with them entirely and no one is freaking out but the media. I don’t see it as a make or break issue at this point. You can quibble with the spin Kennedy puts on a particularly study but at least he does make an effort to cite relevant work from PubMed or the National Library of Medicine.
