Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Wtf??
Wtf.... why? Is that what rich people do to pass the time? I could imagine a bunch of drunk college frat dudes doing this, but he was 60 years old when this happened!
Say what you want about Kennedy, like how he is responsible for a bunch of deaths in Samoa because of his anti vax nonsense, how he is a sex addict and has been a serial abuser to his wives, or how he's a fucking lunatic, the dude has a solid sense of humor.
He also loves falconing. He once threatened a cop by telling him he had a falcon under his coat and he'd trained it to kill cops, then he shoved the falcon in the cops face.
He would have one of his brothers lie down behind a car and hit it to make a noise, then shout 'oh God you've killed another Kennedy!'. This was shortly after his father was assassinated.
Hello fellow behind the bastards enjoyer
Ah a man of culture
Yeah I've been listening for a long time and have heard every episode at this point. Show is a real treasure and I'm always recommending it.
I go on benders listening to all the episodes I've missed since the last time I binged a bunch of episodes that made me question humanity.
I didn't make it far down the list this time, the uhh, the post war German pedophile ring thing really fucked me up.
Cop: What's under your jacket, son?
RFK Jr: It's a hawk, and he's trained to kill cops!

Goddamn, you're right about his sense of humor, that's funny (and dark) as fuck.
I suggest watching the Behind the Bastards on this guy. He's weirdly obsessed with death, dead animals, eating bush meat (how he got legitimate brain worms) and rancid rotten meat. Probably all stemming from the death of his dad and his constant abuse of psychedelics and opioids.
Edit: while he was a kid btw, still fucked up, but I'm guessing being part of the Kennedy family isn't the best. If I remember from the BTB episode, he took acid a bunch
Check out the Behind the Bastards episodes about him. Dude spent his teens on acid falconing and shooting rats in a farm death pit.
What's wrong with eating it though? Better than wasting it
Eating undercooked animals is how you get brain worms.
Can't get 'em twice!
You can however, obtain more
I think something like 80% of bear meat contains trichinosis.
I'm surprised I didn't know that, some people definitely eat it in my hick-ass hometown
You can eat it, but it has to be well-done, at least 160F in the center to kill the eggs.
