@DemocracyMattersALot The average reader may not have access to any proof or corroborating testimony and consider the case against him unlikely to succeed, and see allegations against public figures as a dime a dozen.

In July 2023 a video surfaced of Kennedy making false claims that Covid-19 was “ethnically targeted” to attack Black people and white people while sparing Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese people, while Kennedy has also claimed that wifi causes “leaky brain”.
