destroy countries for profit and then rebuild them for profit with that profit coming from the taxpayers in the middle class. Sure feels like it. No I don't know how much of that is intentional but this is one of those cases and I usually don't say this. I usually say that we just got here because the variables turned the way they did. I usually don't go for the conspiracy theory.

But it's hard for me to look at Iraq and Afghanistan and Ukraine and imagine that this isn't true. It looks exactly like what's happening. It looks like the intelligence agencies start a war that didn't need to be started and then the military contractors clean up. They destroy the country and then when you're done another group of bastards make money from the taxpayers to clean it up.

Yeah so could RFK Jr. actually change that situation? Probably not without getting assassinated. You know I didn't want to go there but he is really on — he's on the hottest third rail of all third rails. There is no third rail that's hotter than this one and he's standing on it with both feet and shouting. He's basically saying shoot me. And the balls on these Kennedys.

I saw Bill Maher try to bait RFK Jr. into talking about Bill's theory that the Kennedys do risky things. They do dangerous stuff you know both for entertainment and in their professional lives. Well I mean RFK Jr. is the perfect example of that. His entire career before now was doing really dangerous stuff going up against big pharma. How dangerous is it to go up against big pharma? Well he found out. He got canceled as a canceled person could be. And he went from canceled to running for president.

So instead of running away he ran at it like the pillbox is tearing them apart and he's running at the pillbox where they had grenades saying we'll see how this ends. Basically to me it looks like it's me or you. He's not saying these words but RFK Jr. to me he says it looks like he said I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die doing this. I think he just offered his life and seriously I think he seriously offered his life. And I think that if he got assassinated doing this he would die happy if it meant that we understood the problem and then maybe did something about it.

I don't know. This is the kind of patriotism I don't think I have ever seen. I'm trying to see if this is the highest level of pure patriotism I've ever witnessed. Now I would say that Trump is up there too. You know Trump may have some other things going on but I think Trump is a patriot and I think that his possibly maybe his co-biggest incentive other than you might want to be president I think his co-biggest incentive is that he's a patriot and he took on enormous risk.

I mean the size of the risk that Trump took on to enter politics at that level you've got to appreciate the risk he took. That's the patriot's that's the real thing. So to have two of those in the race, two people who I would say literally put their life on the line to make America better. Literally put their life on the line.

Now I think Vivek is a patriot at the highest level as well. He doesn't have the same risk that these two had but boy does he have a risk. You know he's lucky that he already cashed down his company so he got rid of his company risk but his reputational risk is extreme. Extreme. So these are people who are really putting they're laying it down for the country.

Somebody said on Twitter today that I'm too pessimistic and I think maybe on Twitter it looks that way because the things I tweet tend to be about problems. But I'm not that way. I'm actually very optimistic. I think there are things happening right now in the world that are tremendous and this is right at the top of the list. This is the best field of candidates in my lifetime. I'm not saying there wasn't you know maybe you like Reagan or something but for a field of candidates this is really impressive.

All right, new way of making fake news. This is also an RFK Jr. story that ties to method. If you want to smear somebody you say they have ties to something unsavory. So this is what — who did this to RFK Jr.? This was some illegitimate publication. Some investigative journalists. I forget who it was. Was it Rolling Stone? Somebody will tell me. Look at the comments. But anyway.

So RFK Jr. was accused of having ties to the ultra mega Republicans. Having ties to them because I would smear him because he has ties to the bad guys. Do you know what the ties were? Do you have any idea what those close ties were? Looks like in some contexts they use the same accounting firm. They used the same accounting firm. That was the close tie.

So whenever you hear this somebody has ties to something your antenna should go up and go oh well that's fake news. That's fake news. Now if they had said he's working with and he's making policy with maybe you know who knows. But if they say his organization has ties to this unsavory group fake news should be your first instinct and then the article better work prett
