President Biden’s nomination of Elliott Abrams to The U.S. Advisory Commission on Public Diplomacy is appalling and should be condemned by any one who believes in diplomacy and democracy.

I support RFK, Jr.
You are the grassroots! Let‘s reclaim American democracy, join Team Kennedy!
RFK Jr.: 35% of Democrats Think He Might Win
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 49% of Likely U.S. Voters have a favorable impression of RFK Jr., including 14% with a Very Favorable opinion. Thirty-eight percent (38%) view Kennedy unfavorably, including 18% with a Very Unfavorable impression, while another 14% are not sure.
Remember when it was shocking when the government lied to you? There was once such a time.
I remember my father telling me sadly, “Politicians lie.” That was in the 1960s, when people expected honesty. By now, we’ve been lied to so many times we automatically discount all political speech and try to decode it for the “message.” Get ready to start expecting the truth again from government agencies when I am President. #Kennedy24
Supporters are sending us screenshots of @YouTube telling users trying to rebroadcast my speech, “Peace and Diplomacy,” that it violates their policy on “medical misinformation.” You can still watch the speech here:
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.‘s Peace and Diplomacy Speech
(June 21, 2023)
Marking the anniversary of President John F. Kennedy‘s 1963 „Peace Speech“ at American University, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announces a fundamentally new direction for American foreign policy. With his election in 2024, our country’s decades-long journey into military imperialism will be over. We will instead become again the exemplar of peace, freedom, and democracy that once inspired the world.
Watch RFK, Jr.‘s June 20 speech that he delivered at Saint Anselm College in the Dana Center-Koonz Theatre in Goffstown, New Hampshire:
Expect Rolling Stone to lead the corporate media’s frantic crusade to vilify me to stop my White House bid. Rolling Stone was once the premier standard-bearer of the counterculture. Now it’s a channel for Establishment propaganda.
#TrollingStone #RollingSmear
Unlike Sanders, Kennedy has real appeal to both sides of the aisle. It’s why he polls favorable at 49%, higher than both Trump and Biden. And 30% unfavorable some 22-23 points lower than Biden and Trump.
Why Robert Kennedy Jr.’s 2024 Bid Is a Headache for Biden
“Mr. Kennedy is the one person who has the qualities that can bring about the unity that most Americans are hungering for,” Mr. Kucinich said. “He speaks a language of conciliation and compassion.”
Besides fund-raising efforts, the Biden campaign has not had much of a public presence since its formal rollout in April. Top officials have spent time in recent days in Wilmington, Del., shopping for office space for a campaign headquarters that is expected to open in July, according to two people familiar with the discussions. The campaign, which has just a few employees on its payroll, is expected to add more staff members once its offices open.

@DavidSacks and I held a fundraiser for @RobertKennedyJr yesterday. The turnout was amazing – pulling in Democrats, Republicans and Independents. I would encourage anyone that has even a small shred of skepticism about the Establishment or mainstream media to find an opportunity to hear RFK speak and come to your own conclusion.
The Establishment and MSM will paint him with all kinds of labels so you don’t give him a chance, but here is what I saw last night:
I saw a really authentic and sensitive person who tells you the truth no matter how awkward it is to hear. He shared some very awkward truths last night: about the climate, about our borders, about our military. At a minimum it will make you second guess what you’ve been told.
I saw a man steeped in American history with a deep sense of what it was, what it’s become and what it can be.
I saw someone who developed his sense of right and wrong by growing up at the feet of two of America’s political and cultural titans: JFK and RFK.
If you have a chance to see him and hear it for yourself, I would really encourage you to do so.
Mainstream news outlets want to end Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s primary challenge
Kennedy’s positions on many other issues also cut against the media grain. His most controversial stance is on the war in Ukraine, where he strongly opposes American involvement (though his son volunteered to serve alongside Ukrainians). Back home, he believes transgender athletes should not participate in female sports; and, at time when the media itself seems to be hiring directly out of Langley, he’s harshly critical of America’s intelligence community, and particularly the CIA, which he believes is responsible for the assassination of his uncle, John F. Kennedy.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Tops Biden And Trump In New Favorability Poll
2024 Democratic presidential contender Robert F. Kennedy Jr.—an environmental lawyer with anti-vaccine views and a strong family dynasty at his back—has higher favorability numbers than either President Joe Biden or former President Donald Trump, according to a new poll by The Economist and YouGov, even as Biden maintains a lead in the 2024 primary.
2C. Favorability of Public Figures — Robert F. Kennedy
Very favorable

Black: 24%
Hispanic: 16%

Somewhat favorable

White: 37%
Black: 38%
Hispanic: 32%
RFK Jr. ranks higher in favorability than other major 2024 candidates: poll
The poll from The Economist and YouGov released Wednesday showed Kennedy was viewed favorably by 49 percent of respondents, giving him the highest net favorability rating of 19 points. He was viewed unfavorably by 30 percent.
President Biden and former President Trump each had the second-highest percentage of respondents viewing them favorably, with 44 percent saying so. But Biden had a minus-9 net favorability rating, while Trump had a minus-10 net favorability rating.
NEW: The share of Democrats who say that Biden is the strongest candidate that their party could nominate for president in 2024 has fallen 17 percentage points since late April, to 34% from 51%.
JP Morgan Chase now owns First Republic‘s sound assets. The FDIC owns its toxic assets. When big banks‘ gambles succeed, they profit. When they fail, we bail them out. Heads they win, tails you lose. #Kennedy24
Ultimately the problem stems from an over-financialized economy. Finance is supposed to serve production, not replace it. We need to reinvest in the productive base: infrastructure, labor, health, social, and natural capital. #Kennedy24
Democrat RFK Jr. details how he differs ‚profoundly‘ with Biden ahead of 2024 election
Kennedy is challenging Biden in the 2024 Democratic primary. While he has known Biden for many years, the challenger said they have differing stances on issues like corporate influence in government, censorship, civil liberties, poverty, corruption and war policy.
„I look forward to engaging him in debates and town hall meetings, in a primary election that is honest, civil, and transparent,“ Kennedy said in a statement. „I invite him into a new era of respectful dialog in these times of division.“
Bill Maher ‚surprised‘ by how well Robert F. Kennedy Jr. polls against Biden
„And I really wish it wasn‘t Robert Kennedy, but the DNC right now is lining up the troops and is going to prevent him from doing any damage,“ Moynihan said. „They‘re not going to have debates. There is going to be no primary debates. He is just going to be pushed aside. He is running as a Democrat. If he decides to then run as a third-party candidate, you have a situation.“
