RFK Jr. Is Reportedly Considering Anti-Vax Quarterback Aaron Rodgers For His VP—And Oh Brother

The presidential candidate is getting roasted online after it was revealed that his two top picks for his running mate are anti-vax quarterback Aaron Rodgers and former pro wrestler-turned-Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura.

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?

CNN Panelist Epically Rips Conservative Pundit After He Tries To Downplay Epstein Files

Podcast host Leigh McGowan criticized conservative CNN panelist Scott Jennings on Monday over his cavalier attitude about the Justice Department's failure to release the Epstein files, calling his response “insane” and “horrifying.”

The DOJ has released less than 1% of the Epstein files. The department acknowledged that it has released just 12,285 documents—totaling 125,575 pages—related to Epstein, even though federal law required the bulk of those records to be made public by December 19.
