ROBERT KENNEDY, JR. DENOUNCES FBI TACTICS AGAINST CANDIDATE AND PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP
The following comes from RT, so take with a grain of salt. However, today the FBI refused a subpoena from the Congressional oversight committee about its mishandling of the Hunter Biden laptop and the information it contained about the Biden crime family.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. decries ‘weaponization’ of FBI
US Democrat presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has broken ranks with his party by arguing that the FBI was politicized to take down Donald Trump – both before and after he was elected president in 2016 – making a “mockery” of the US political process.
“This is no partisan skirmish,” Kennedy said on Monday in a Twitter post. “It is about the political weaponization of the FBI to destroy a candidate and then a sitting president. It’s about a matrix of lies so elaborate as to make a mockery of the democratic ideal of an informed citizenry.”
Kennedy made his comments in response to last week’s release of the Durham Report, which concluded that the FBI violated its own standards in starting an investigation into allegations that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia to win the 2016 election.
Special prosecutor John Durham’s four-year probe found that the agency based its case on unverified allegations – leading to the ‘Russiagate’ investigation during Trump’s presidency – and became a funnel for disinformation from Democrat candidate Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
CNN and other US media outlets that touted the Trump-Russia allegations for years downplayed the Durham Report, calling the damning findings about the FBI a “whole big nothing.” Kennedy said the media’s role in the attacks on Trump was “maybe most troubling of all.” He added: “The Durham Report reveals the abject complicity of the mainstream press, which has yet to admit they were taken in by the big lie, propagated it and now continues to permit those lies to stand as truth.”
Kennedy is a nephew of former President John F. Kennedy Jr. and son of 1968 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, both of whom were assassinated. Earlier this month, he claimed that the FBI was behind the 1963 murder of his uncle and was likely involved in the killing of his father. He has a history of anti-establishment viewpoints, such as speaking out on the alleged dangers of some vaccines, calling for the release of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, decrying Washington’s escalation of the Ukraine crisis, and criticizing the US military industrial complex.
Kennedy likened the media’s handling of Russiagate to its support for false allegations by former President George W. Bush’s administration that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction. He called the two narratives “mendacious mythologies,” saying they were “lies, lies and more lies.”

What Elizabeth Inherited at her coronation; and Charles at his
When Elizabeth was crowned in the early 1950s, the British Empire was still about 1/4th of the globe; today it has Falkland Islands, and ? Today the Prime Minister of England is Hindu; of Scotland is a Muslim; of Northern Ireland two women, one representing the orange (Protestants), the other the greens (Roman Catholics. By the way, in India and parts of Asia, dark green is a color for Muslims, orange or saffron the color for Hindus.) And the leader of the Republic of Ireland is a man raised Catholic, half Irish, half Indian, who is an openly gay man. A lot of change in the reign of Elizabeth.
Pres. Candidate Robert Kennedy Jr. on CIA Involvement in Assassinations of JFK and RFK, Sr.

US presidential candidate blames CIA for JFK assassination
The CIA was behind the assassination of US President John F. Kennedy Jr. in 1963 and likely involved in the murder of US Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy in 1968, Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. alleged during an interview with WABC radio host John Catsimatidis on Sunday.
“There is overwhelming evidence that the CIA was involved in [JFK's] murder,” Kennedy declared, describing it as “beyond a reasonable doubt at this point.”
“The evidence is overwhelming that the CIA was involved in the murder, and the coverup,” the candidate continued, describing efforts to discredit this theory as a “60-year coverup.” Kennedy cited the book “JFK and the Unspeakable” by James Douglas as the best compilation of evidence on the subject, though dozens if not hundreds of works have been written about the assassination and the CIA’s alleged role.
The official US government explanation, published as the Warren Commission report the following year, holds that US Marine veteran Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in shooting the president while his motorcade was passing through Dallas on November 22, 1963.
Oswald was famously murdered before he could stand trial, though he managed to tell journalists he was “just a patsy” shortly after his arrest. The alleged lone gunman was shot dead by nightclub owner Jack Ruby (real name Jacob Rubinstein) while being transported from Dallas Police Headquarters to the county jail.
Speaking to Catsimatidis, Kennedy added that there was “very convincing but circumstantial” evidence the CIA was involved in the 1968 assassination of his father, Attorney General and presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, as well. He described the official story of the assassination, which was pinned on Palestinian horse groomer Sirhan Sirhan, as physically impossible, arguing Thane Eugene Cesar, a security guard at the hotel who was concurrently employed by military contractor Lockheed, had actually fired the shots that killed Kennedy.
Four years after JFK’s murder, nearly half of the American public did not believe that Oswald had acted alone. The CIA was concerned enough about this fact that it issued a directive in 1967 on how to discredit the so-called “conspiracy theorists” questioning the conclusions of the Warren Commission. Modern use of the term “conspiracy theorist” as a pejorative is often traced back to this 1967 memo.

Democrat Robert Kennedy on the Ukrainian/Russian conflict
Recently, when Dem. Presidential candidate Robert Kennedy, Jr. was interviewed on ABC television, the hostess interrupted his comments, told the television audience Kennedy was wrong when he spoke about the Covid virus and vaccines, and cut him off the air. On most American major media, if someone disagrees with Dr. Fauci, or other leading medicrats, they will be cut off. Pfizer and other large pharmaceutical corporations are large sponsors on American tv.
Apparently Kennedy has spoken on another "sensitive" topic for American media. This report comes from RT. so take with a grain of salt. However, at least you can see the points Kenndy was making. Hugh Murray
Kennedy shares opinion on key US mistake with Russia
Instead of listening to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s warnings about “red lines,” the US has repeatedly crossed them, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said in an interview published on Wednesday. The Democrat running for US president added that Washington should have either invited Moscow to NATO or dismantled the anti-Russian alliance after the Cold War.
“We should have listened to Putin over many years. We made a commitment to Russia, to Gorbachev, that we would not move NATO one inch to the east. Then we went in, and we lied,” Kennedy told the outlet UnHerd.
Instead of offering to integrate Russia into the West, as many diplomats urged in 1991, the US expanded NATO to its borders. “What is the purpose of NATO other than to oppose Russia? If you’re addressing Russia in a hostile way from the beginning, of course their reaction is going to be hostile back,” Kennedy said.
He described what happened in Kiev in 2014 as “essentially a coup d’etat” supported by the US, recalling the infamous phone call in which Victoria Nuland was “handpicking a new cabinet” hostile to Moscow.
“If Mexico did that and then started killing – they killed 14,000 Russians in Donbass, the Ukrainian government – if Mexico did that to expatriate Americans, we’d invade in a second,” Kennedy said, adding that Putin “repeatedly told us: these are red lines, you’re crossing.”
American leaders should be able to “put yourself in the other guy’s shoes,” just like his uncle John F. Kennedy did during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, stepping back from the brink of nuclear war, which all of his advisers were pushing for.
Kennedy condemned the “barbaric and illegal invasion” of Ukraine and called Putin a ‘gangster’, a ‘thug’ and a ‘bully’, but said the conflict needed to be settled quickly, because the US had already “sacrificed 300,000” Ukrainians in battle. While the White House presented aiding Kiev as a humanitarian mission, “every step that we’ve taken has been to enlarge the conflict and to maximize bloodshed,” he said.
“Let’s be honest: It’s a US war against Russia, to essentially sacrifice the flower of Ukrainian youth in an abattoir of death and destruction for the geopolitical ambition of the neocons” to see regime change in Moscow, Kennedy said. He added that the people who created the problem weren’t capable of settling it.
Asked about his proposed solution, Kennedy said that something like the Minsk accords, agreeing to keep Ukraine out of NATO, and removing nuclear missile launchers from Russia’s borders might work.

REVOLUTIONS - ONE OFTEN REMEMBERED, THE OTHER FORGOTTEN
The following will be a few paragraphs from my forthcoming book. Hugh Murray
Unbeknownst to me, there was another revolution going on beneath the surface that year, 1955-56, occurring in Baton Rouge. Most educators, university and high school coaches in all sports knew various truisms. One was obvious: those who built up large muscles became muscle bound, restricted by their bulk. They were slower than others, less agile, more of a klutz. Keeping up to date with trends in health, in Physical Education classes, instructors discouraged use of weights because the results were loss of steadiness, loss of control. Coaches were aware of these truths also, so don't look for weights around locker rooms. True, some like Charles Atlas advertised weight training and body building as the way for the weakling on the beach to retaliate against the bully who kicked sand on him. But who paid attention to the back page of comic books for tips on health? And those muscles were more for show, or worse, a pose; they did not help the natural athlete. And sports was basically for the natural athlete, the one born with the right body. You either had it or you didn't. Not much an individual could do to change his fate in sports.
One man who had believed this, Alvin Roy, had had some strange experiences after WWII. An officer in the US Army, he was ordered to get some soldiers into shape to partake in the first post-war weightlifting championships in France. He was amazed to see men weightlifting, who were faster than most, extremely agile, and they were stronger too. This was contrary to everything he had ever learned. But now Roy sought to learn from those who were doing this so successfully. In 1952 Roy was the lead trainer for the successful American weightlifting team at the 1952 Olympic Games in Helsinki. He opened a weight training studio in his native Baton Rouge, and though the coach of his alma mater, Istrouma High was not initially interested in experimenting with such outrageous changes, after a less successful season, he hired Roy for training the team. Weights, studying what muscles could be imporved and how, and some of the young athletes on the football team also went to Roy's gym. Istrouma High School in Baton Rouge took the new ideas seriously, and the Istrouma Indian football team, began using weights in training. Among the high schoolers learning these new techniques was Billy Cannon. He was soon breaking school and even state records in track, excelling in basketball, and leading the Indians to a state championship in football in 1955. Istrouma would be Louisiana champs again in 1956, 1957, 1959, 1961, and 1962. Meanwhile, Cannon who graduated, studied at LSU, and worked wonders on the field. LSU would be chosen national champion college team in 1958. In the 1960s Cannon would play in the NFL and AFL, winning many awards. The use of weights in sports training would spread far beyond Istrouma and LSU, as Billy Cannon burst on the scene and shattered the old disdain for such training. It was a revolution in football. And not just football, but the training spread to basketball, tennis, swimming, even golf. It was a revolution in sports that in many ways began in Louisiana in the mid-1950s, but is now so ubiquitous, so universal that we do not even notice what has happend.(See Henry Ball, “Sport's Big Gamechanger,” The Southern Voice, July 13, 2022) Ponder, how we speak of a Civil Rights Revolution of this era, but not of the contemporaneous Sports Revolution. It was a revolution so successful it is forgotten.
In high school I had friends in the debate and speech class, and in other classes too. One was a larger guy, Tex Sanders. Quite friendly, with a number of brothers and sisters and an outgoing mom. Sometimes he and I bowled together. One weekend we doubled-dated to see a film at the Saenger, “Rebel without a Cause” with James Dean, Natalie Wood, and Sal Mineo. When it ended, the large, crowded theater seemed to release a collective breath of relief. Tex's date that night was a sweet student at Easton, Mary Jane. In the various informal conversations, Mary Jane began to worry about me. Talk of race-mixing, changing the schools, the society, this was communist talk. She urged me to speak with her father, who knew a lot about the problem. Her dad was Guy Banister. I did not know it until later, but he had been an FBI official in Chicago, came to NO as acting Superintendent of Police, and then had a detective agency. Many alleged he was connected to the intelligence community. I did not know till later, he also paid young people to keep tabs on young radicals. I did not want to meet him, and suspect he had no interest in meeting with me, but to satisfy Mary Jane, I went to their home, and walked up to him inside as he was sorting mail. I gave a brief introduction, and he barely grunted, as he kept sorting. With no real conversation, I walked away. We both had “formally” filled our obligation to Mary Jane.
