Independent presidential candidate and potential election spoiler Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s anti-vax campaign is heating up, with his top-two running-mate picks having been revealed.

One is former pro wrestler and independent Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura. The other? Fellow anti-vaxxer and QAnon-adjacent NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

Both Rodgers and Kennedy Jr. have basically never met a conspiracy theory they wouldn't immediately glom onto and amplify, and Jesse Ventura has had a show on Russia-backed TV for five years. So it's really hard to know who's the better choice!

But certainly on brand for RFK.

Anyway, Kennedy Jr. told The New York Times he's been talking to Rodgers "constantly" in recent weeks.

He's also been talking to grifting former Democrat-turned-Trumper Tulsi Gabbard, Republican former Senator Rand Paul, and failed presidential candidate Andrew Yang, but they must not have been up to snuff.

The Times reported that a Kennedy-Rodgers website has already been registered and everything.

It really is the perfect match—both men have had their brains cooked by bizarre conspiracy theories about Covid and vaccines, and Rodgers has given his thumbs-up to everything from QAnon to 9/11 truthers to flat-earth theories and, of course, that perennial favorite, claims that the moon landing was faked.

Oh—and he thinks the 2010 Sandy Hook shooting in which 20 children and six adults were slaughtered was faked, too. A real prince of a guy! And of course, both gents are right up Vladimir Putin's alley. Neat!

As you might guess, the prospect of an RFK Jr. and Aaron Rodgers ticket did not spark much enthusiasm among many folks online.












Umm, can 2024 just be over already?

Even MTG Is Demanding That MAGA Admit The Killing Of Alex Pretti Was Completely Unjustified

Former Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene continues to speak out against the MAGA movement that brought her to national prominence, this time calling on Republicans to condemn the killing of Alex Pretti by ICE agents in Minneapolis.

Calls for an investigation have intensified from across the political spectrum after analysis of multiple videos showed ICE officers removing a handgun from Pretti—a weapon that authorities said Pretti was permitted to carry but was not handling at the time—before fatally shooting him.

In an almost 11-minute video, trial attorney Chris Madel condemned the administration of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee in the wake of what he characterized as retaliatory actions by the Trump administration, Kristi Noem's Department of Homeland Security, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Minnesota that resulted in the recent murders of two United States citizens—Renée Good and Alex Pretti.

Jimmy Kimmel Gets Choked Up Talking About Deaths Of Renee Good And Alex Pretti In Poignant Monologue

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel was visibly emotional on his program as he talked about the deaths of ICE shooting victims Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, calling out crimes "committed by this gang of poorly-trained, shamefully-led, mask-wearing goons."

Earlier this month, ICE agent Jonathan Ross killed Good in her car. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin claimed Good “weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them.”
