He is a Christian/catholic and has said he/his wife would never personally have an abortion BUT he recognizes that it's not the government's job to dictate what other people believe in terms of religious views (which is the reason Pro-Life supporters base their anti-abortion stance on). So really, he's a wonderful embodiment of the separation between church and state--separation of personal beliefs from politics is very important in our country.

This lady seems to think we have a short term memory what about all the basement meetings that Democrats had. And literally locked out Republicans.
What RFK Jr said about Anne Frank was not implying what Stacey Plaskett twisted it to sound as if it were implying. My partner is Jewish, his mother was a survivor of the Warsaw ghetto in Poland during the Holocaust. His grandfather escaped to Switzerland as did several of his other relatives. His grandmother and mother got out of the ghetto and survived because they were able to get fake Polish identities/passports, because at that time technology didn't have everybody registered in numerous systems, with digital tracking devices. Had his mother and grandmother not been able to live under these Polish identities they would absolutely have died, as was true for millions of people. What RFK Jr was referring to was that in the past, we didn't have the security to track people at all times. We now have cell phones and all kinds of tracking technology. He was not saying Nazi Europe was worse than Covid America. He was saying the potential for being trapped is higher, without escape. She knows this, this woman is looking for ways to take him down.

There’s one saying I recall from my upbringing in regards to people like “rank” member Plaskett, that is this…..give a guilty person enough rope… And they eventually h@*; themselves…. Of course she would know after facilitating a $300 million dollar tax break in the Virgin Islands for Jeffrey Epstein. Read journalist Lee Fang’s detailed report about Stacey Plaskett’s “career” in the VI. She worked exclusively for one of the best law firms in the VI who were also hired on by…..Jeffrey Epstein. All of this came out just 2 weeks ago during the cross examination of Jamie Dimon CEO for Goldman Sachs who had been known to employ Jeffrey Epstein and later, after his initial arrest in 2014, still continued to do business with Jeffrey Epstein. In fact, there are emails from Plaskett on behalf of her firm, in soliciting DONATIONS from WHO?? Yes, you guessed it Jeffrey Epstein. So, the ZEAL with which this woman is attempting to utilize to DEFAME RFK jr. will eventually become the rope….😮😮😮🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🙏😇💯❤️❤️❤️
