RFK Jr. & The Battle Against Evil
Two children are dead, Harper Moyski, 10, and Fletcher Merkel, 8, their parents and community shattered. Others are still in the hospital, including a 10-year-old boy who shielded a kindergarten child during the attack, taking a shotgun blast to his back as gunfire shattered the church’s windows.
The shooter, Robert Westman, is also dead, by self-inflicted gunshot. He is a transgender who called himself Robin. Democrats rushed to shield this identity. The police chief, and the New York Times, called his motive a mystery. And propagandists in the mainstream media ignored his trans identity entirely. CNN, the Times and USA Today, all published stories about the shooter without mentioning his trans identity. NBC issued an apology for inadvertantly referring to the shooter as “he.”
The 23-year-old Robert Westman’s anti-Catholic, anti-children manifesto — he declared the Shady Hook massacre his favorite — was translated by the New York Post. “I am tired of being trans, I wish I never brain-washed myself,’ Westman said in posts encrypted in a code of Russian Cyrillic script and English words. In a suicide note, he wrote, “I am not well. I am not right. I am a sad person, haunted by these thoughts that do not go away. I know this is wrong, but I can’t seem to stop myself.”
Shockingly, Democrats responded by attacking “thoughts and prayers” offered to the families. Jen Psaki, Biden White House press pecretary and MSNBC host, wrote on X, “Prayer is not freaking enough. Prayers does not end school shootings, prayers do not make parents feel safe sending their kids to school. Prayer does not bring these kids back. Enough with the thoughts and prayers.” She blamed President Trump. “When kids are getting shot in their pews at a catholic school mass and your crime plan is to have national guard put mulch down around DC maybe rethink your strategy.”
It’s hard to imagine anything less sensitive, even for atheists, than telling Catholic parents who have just lost their children, or are tending their kids in hospital, not to pray. Unless it’s blaming Trump for the actions of a shooter who was brainwashed into transgendering himself and pumped with sex change hormones by a dangerous leftwing gender ideology that is the heartbeat of today’s Democrat Party. As The Federalist put it, “Violence is the logical and desired outcome of leftists’ trans victim narrative.” Maybe, as Mark Hemingway put it, “giving already mentally unstable people large quantities of exogenous cross sex hormones makes them homicidal.”
Democrats immediately called for gun control. But Minneapolis has strict gun laws, and conservatives countered by calling for gun control for transgenders. It’s not like this the first time a transgender individual hyped on hormone drugs took gun in hand and shot children, perhaps out of anger at being robbed of his or her own childhood.
HHS Secretary RFK Jr. launched a full investigation into what drugs Robert Westman was taking. Dismissing calls for gun control, this son of an assassinated US senator and nephew of an assassinated president noted there was never been a time in America of such a high level mass shootings. “Something changed,” he said, “dramatically changed human behavior. One of the culprits we need to examine is the fact that we are the most over-medicated nation in the world, a lot of those are psychiatric drugs that have black box warnings” of suicidal and homicidal behavior.
Pushback was immediate. “All the data suggest SSRIs are not the problem,” Ragy R. Girgis, a professor of clinical psychiatry at the Columbia University Department of Psychiatry and New York State Psychiatric Institute, told The Washington Post. In a blistering post on X, Minnesota Sen. Tina Smith wrote, “I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do. Just shut up. Stop peddling b-------. You should be fired.”
This is the kind of vicious attack Kennedy gets whenever he investigates a problem where the solution may rob Big Pharma of their ill-gotten profits. And this from a Democrat Party that claimed all through the pandemic it stood for science.
Consider:
This week, Kennedy dismissed CDC Director Susan Monarez. When she refused to leave, Trump fired her. Other staffers left with her, including Demetre Daskalakis, the gay “activist physician” who used terms like “pregnant people” and showed up in public in bondage gear. MAGA was thrilled. As @esoryelsnya wrote, “I’m so unbelievably sad that the CDC is losing all the folks who told me if I follow the arrows on the floor at the grocery store then I won’t get COVID.”
This summer, RFK Jr. canceled 22 mRNA vaccine contracts—cutting nearly $500M from Big Pharma. He warned these shots likely prolonged the pandemic by driving dangerous mutations. He also removed the COVID shot from the childhood vaccine schedule, withdrew emergency use authorization for COVID shots, and repealed federal health rules offering financial incentives for doctors who prescribe certain drugs.
Targeting junk foods and ultra processed foods known to be unhealthy, he has convinced major food companies to drop their dyes. Then he targeted SNAP (food stamp) programs for allowing recipients to buy sugar-loaded soda and candy, which spike insulin, inflame organs, wreck metabolic systems, and set kids on a path toward diabetes, obesity, and lifelong illness. Welfare mothers complained.
All of this comes at a price. This week a secret trade-association memo was leaked plotting Kennedy’s removal, said Dr. Robert Malone, a stalwart voice against the COVID vax. The memo, he said, “reads like a coup attempt against regulatory reform—spending millions to make sure Kennedy is out of office by September.” The nation’s leading pharma trade group — whose membership includes Pfizer, Merck, Novavax, Vaxcyte, and hundreds of other biotech firms —is launching this mass lobbying campaign on Capitol Hill to engineer RJK’s firing after Labor Day.
Let us pray. Not for outcome, but for God to give us the faith to keep up the fight.
