Showing Original Post only (View all)RFK Jr. Lashes Out at Rolling Stone After Article Shows GOP Link to Presidential Run: 'Establishment [View all]
PropagandaFollowing Rolling Stones publication of an article linking a super PAC backing Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to Republican representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene and George Santos, the anti-vaccine activist lashed out at the publication on Twitter, calling it a channel for Establishment propaganda.
Expect Rolling Stone to lead the corporate medias frantic crusade to vilify me to stop my White House bid, Kennedy Jr. wrote. Rolling Stone was once the premier standard-bearer of the counterculture. Now its a channel for Establishment propaganda. #TrollingStone #RollingSmear
The article, released Friday, pointed to filings viewed by Rolling Stone that tied the creators of the pro-Kennedy Jr. Super PAC Heal the Divide to pro-Donald Trump officials like Greene, Santos and Hershel Walker. Rolling Stone deemed it abnormal that Kennedy Jr. is running as a Democrat despite being backed by Republican-affiliated donors.
The article also cites unnamed Fox News employees who told Rolling Stone that higher-ups at the right-wing news network have considered featuring Kennedy Jr.s candidacy more prominently in an attempt to make President Joe Biden look weak.

I guess he'll need to meet with Steve Bannon and Michael Flynn to get more guidance.

You're right, I guess that they all now follow tRUMP's script, to garner the voters like tRUMP did.

The fact that Republicans are backing him says all you need to know about their motives.

"Heal the Divide"... sounds like unity but he doesn't want his GOP backers known?

Guess there's one flake in every family. What a shame - JFK and RFK Sr. were so great.

Thank you, Rolling Stone, for exposing RFK Jr's run as a Trump World financed sham.
