RFK Jr. is the Key, Biden says "Woe is Me"; Mayor Wu, a racist, she; and AI Self-Proliferating, Oh Gee
“VOTERS WANT SOMETHING DIFFERENT. IS IT RFK JR?” (Wall Street Journal)
RFK Jr. holds an ace up his sleeve: The key to who wins the White House in 2024.
Who-what-how?
Supposing it is Joe Biden vs. Donald Trump (or Nikki Haley) facing off in the next election. In my view, whoever of the two chooses RFK Jr. to be his/her running mate will be elected due to Bobby’s strong following as an independent candidate.
The most entertaining scenario would be if both contenders try to tap him. If that happens, RFK Jr. would have to choose between them—and become the kingmaker.
The better choice for RFK Jr. would be Biden because a) of the long-standing Kennedy relationship with the Democratic Party and b) there’s a chance Biden will expire in office; if he doesn't, RFK Jr. would still be his heir apparent in 2028.
Trump, meanwhile, should have a greater interest in making RFK Jr. his VP.
Why?
Insider Washington hates/fears RFK Jr. almost as much as they hate/fear Trump. So, RFK Jr. would effectively become Trump’s insurance policy that they don’t knock him off. (They’ve already tried everything else.)
“BIDEN SAID TO BE INCREASINGLY FRUSTRATED BY DISMAL POLL NUMBERS” (The Washington Post)
The descent of Joe’s poll numbers is commensurate with the ascent of prices at the supermarket. James Carville said it best (in 1992) regarding the American voter: “It’s about the economy, stupid.”
You cannot keep borrowing trillions of dollars and printing money out of thin air and giving it away (PPP, illegal immigrant welfare, etc.) without real estate, food and energy prices soaring sky high and leaving the average American in greater debt than ever before (which may actually be their strategy as we evolve into a feudal system of mega-billionaires and serfs).

We tried. We did. You weren’t listening. And you did your very best to gaslight us as “conspiracy theorists.”
“MAYOR WU DEFENDS HOSTING ‘ELECTED OF COLOR HOLIDAY PARTY’” (NBC News)
There has been much disgraceful behavior this past year from the so-called “progressive” politically/socially correct crowd.
But Boston’s Mayor Michelle Wu takes the (Christmas) cake, throwing a holiday party that excluded white people.
Has “equal rights” all along been a kind of secret code for “the new segregation”?
Shame, shame—and more shame.
“WHY ARE CALIFORNIA’S ANIMAL SHELTERS KILLING SO MANY PETS?” (Reason)
“The bureaucrats who run the facility—the largest municipal ‘animal-care’ operation in the West—depict these customer-unfriendly, animal-harming policies as a means to protect the critters from stress and protect the public from animal bites. In reality, it's just the latest instance of government putting the employees' convenience above the public good—like the way public schools and teachers' unions dragged their feet on school re-openings.
“A county grand jury report this year pointed to ‘excessive euthanasia rates, poor leadership, inadequate numbers of animal care attendants, a lack of cooperation between staff departments, the exclusion of kennel staff from euthanasia decisions, the lack of proper assessment of animals chosen for euthanasia, and low morale negatively impacting operation of the shelter.’”
How about euthanizing the bureaucrats instead?
Given the choice between a dog or a brainless bureaucrat barking in my yard, I’d take the dog any day of the week, no contest.
“HERE’S WHAT TO FEAR IN THE NEW YEAR—ACCORDING TO NOSTRADAMUS & BABA VANGA” (New York Post)
Everyone has heard of Nostradamus (Michel de Nostradame), the 16th century French astrologer and seer who forecast the future. His prophecies—published in 1555 as “quatrain” poetry based upon what he called “judicial astrology,” have endured as his predictions played out through the centuries, among them the Great Fire of London, the French Revolution, the rise of Adolf Hitler, the assassination of JFK—and even 9/11.
Pundits are interpreting Nosty’s 2024 predictions as follows:
Nostradamus: “King of the Isles driven out by force.” The suggestion is that King Charles III of Britain will abdicate (or be removed) in favor of “one who has no mark of a king,” interpreted as Prince Harry’s ascension to the throne. This might make “Me-Again” (Meghan) squeal with delight but based on what I was told by absolutely everyone while in London recently, Harry is about as popular in his native land as a rabid Wuhan bat.
Nosty: “The dry earth will grow more parched, and there will be great floods when it is seen.”
The climate is changing and even John Kerry (barf) can’t stop it. Meantime, all the usual carbon-producing suspects—Bill Gates, Al Gore, Prince Albert of Monaco, et al—continue to circle the globe in private jets while lecturing everyone else to leave their cars at home and take the bus.
Meanwhile, Baba Vanga—a Bulgarian mystic who passed in 1996—predicts much woe from artificial intelligence in the coming year.
Which brings us to…
“RESEARCHERS BUILD AI THAT CAN REPLICATE AND ALTER ITSELF” (TechRadar)
Has AI grown its own version of reproductive organs?
Apparently so. It has now learned how to spawn.
In addition to that development (oops!), the day will soon dawn when even TVs, dishwashers and ovens are operated (and controlled) by AI.
Meantime, human discretion no longer exists. Humans are trained not to deviate from what their AI superiors convey to them through computer monitors.
