During his endorsement speech for Donald Trump, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. explained that three great causes drove him to enter the presidential race. Donald W. Miller, Jr., MD explains at LewRockwell.com that the reasons were “1) free speech; 2) the war in Ukraine; and 3) the war on our children.” He writes:
Free speech in America is being greatly threatened by the “government’s censorship industrial complex,” as RFK Jr. puts it. For the representatives of the media networks attending his speech, he tells them:
“Your institutions and media made themselves government mouthpieces and stenographers for the organs of power.”
Robert Kennedy and Donald Trump view the war in Ukraine the same way: They see, as RFK Jr. puts it that: “Ukraine is a proxy in a geopolitical struggle initiated by the ambitions of the US neocons for American global hegemony.” And furthermore:
“The reckless neocon project of extending NATO to encircle Russia is a hostile act. The credulous media rarely explain to Americans that we unilaterally walked away from two intermediate nuclear weapons treaties with Russia and then put nuclear missile systems in Romania and Poland.”
He also points out that President Biden has stated that “his objective in the war was regime change in Russia.” Instead, “our moral authority and our economy are in shambles, and the war gave rise to the emergence of BRICS, which now threatens to replace the dollar as a global reserve currency.”
RFK Jr. makes this telling point:
Last summer, it looked like no candidate was willing [1] to negotiate a quick end to the Ukraine war, [2] to tackle the chronic disease epidemic, [3] to protect free speech and our constitutional freedoms, [4] clean corporate influence out of our government, or [5] defy the neocons and their agenda of endless military adventurism. But now one of the two candidates [Harris and Trump] has adopted these issues as his own, to the point where he has asked to enlist me in his administration. I’m speaking, of course, of Donald Trump.
He is not overstating the problem when he says that America’s chronic disease epidemic has become far worse than most Americans realize, as these facts show:
→ The U.S. is 79th in health outcomes, behind even Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Mongolia.
→ Two-thirds of American adults and children now suffer from chronic health issues, whereas 50 years ago that number was less than1 percent.
→Now 74 percent of Americans are overweight or obese, including 50 percent of our children.
→Half of Americans have prediabetes or type two diabetes, and pediatricians find that now 1/3rd of children they see are diabetic or prediabetic.
→The CDC says that autism rates in children is now 1 in 36 (it is 1 in 22 in California!),
whereas the autism rate 70 years ago was 1 in 10,000!
→Now 18 percent of American teens have fatty liver disease, which used to affect only late-stage alcoholics.
→Cancer rates are skyrocketing in both the young and old.
RFK Jr. cites these findings to show how bad America’s chronic disease epidemic has become, findings that Casey Means, M.D. and her brother Colley Means corroborate in their bestselling book Good Energy: The Surprising Connection Between Metabolism and Limitless Health (2024). This book, written by two widely respected food safety advocates and published May 13, 2024, is a best seller. And it turns out that both Donald Trump and Robert Kennedy had each independently sought advice from Collen Means for dealing with America’s chronic disease epidemic before Kennedy and Trump considered forming a political partnership.
So what is causing such widespread suffering? RFK Jr. names two culprits: ultra-processed foods and toxic chemicals in our food, medicines, and the environment, which include Pesticides; food additives; pharmaceutical drugs, like Ozempic–for obesity and costs $1,500 a month, and toxic waste. Speaking for both Donald Trump and him, Kennedy says:
“We’re going to bring healthy food back to school lunches. We’re going to stop subsidizing the worst foods with our agricultural subsidies. We’re going to get toxic chemicals out of our food. We’re going to reform the entire food system. And for that, we need new leadership in Washington. Because unfortunately, both the Democrats and the Republican parties are in cahoots with the big food producers, Big Pharma and Big AG, which are among the DNC’s major donors.”
RJK Jr. has announced that he will be on the campaign trail helping Donald Trump get reelected for a second term as President of the United States.
