In the wake of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s decision to suspend his campaign and endorse Donald Trump for President, his siblings issued the above statement.
Evidently they in general and Chris Kennedy in particular have forgotten a few things. In 2010 Chris was involved in getting Bill Ayers denied emeritus status at the University of Illinois, and made this statement at the time:
But in an emotional statement, Kennedy discussed his reasons for voting against Ayers’ request.
“I am guided by my conscience and one which has been formed by a series of experiences, many of which have been shared with the people of our country and mark each of us in a profound way,” Kennedy said.
He said he could not confer the title “to a man whose body of work includes a book dedicated in part to the man who murdered my father.”
Kennedy was referring to a 1974 book co-authored by Ayers, “Prairie Fire,” which was dedicated to a long list of people including Robert Kennedy assassin Sirhan Sirhan and “all political prisoners in the U.S.”
Today the Democrat Party is de facto the party of Bill Ayers, and has been so since Barack Obama rose to prominence. Their tactics–from the way they booted Joe Biden (after years of covering for his decline) and squeezed RFK Jr. himself (and Bernie Sanders, in his case twice) out of the nominating process show a party with a decidedly “politburo” mentality. Their weaponisation of the justice system (which they laughably project on Trump) is of a piece of people who have figured out at last that you can’t control society without the “pigs” (to use the Sixties lingo.)
But those who have caved–even going against your own family–cannot see reality.
