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?

Community Rallies After GOP Cuts Funding For Pizza Parties They Think Are Turning Kids Trans

After the Ellensburg City Council in Washington voted to cut funding for weekly pizza parties for a school LGBTQ+ program over fears it was encouraging kids to become gay and trans—calling it “a target on minors"—the community quickly stepped up to donate more than enough funds.

Launched in 2023, the program was highlighted in the Ellensburg Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Commission’s year-end report and proposed 2025 budget, which advocated for its continuation. The Pizza Klatch attracted an average of 27 students weekly throughout 2024, offering a safe and supportive classroom environment for LGBTQ+ students and their allies, according to supporters.

Fox Host Drops Truth Bomb About Biden's Economy In Mic Drop Clip

Fox News host Jessica Tarlov eloquently broke down the economic legacy of President Joe Biden in just one minute on Fox, noting that while it will no doubt be "complicated," he "oversaw the best recovery" of the G7 countries, which include Canada, France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, Japan and the U.S.

Tarlov—perhaps the most prominent Democrat on the network—once again went against the grain, discrediting claims many of her co-hosts have made about the effectiveness of Biden's economic policies.
