The apparat that has been undermining the health of Americans for decades via such things as the pushing of harmful drugs on them, beginning almost immediately after birth. RFK, Jr. appeared to be at odds with this sordid business (just the right word, by the way, as this is like most things chiefly about the money) and that's why he was regarded as a champion by millions who are sick and tired of the federal apparat treating Americans like experimental guinea pigs for the sake of the drug cartels' profits.

Now we are treated to the news that he endorses using the powers of the apparat to push "wearables" on Americans. In case you had not heard, "wearables" are the next best thing to being chipped by the drug pushers. "Wearables" are bracelets that have the ability to monitor your health via various metrics such as your blood pressure and so on and transmit this data to  the drug pushers, so that they can better push drugs on you via their white-coated stooges (i.e., doctors). The latter having been reduced to the status of employees of the drug-pushing cartels and the government, which facilitates and legalizes the pushing.

It raises some really interesting questions. Of a piece with the questions that arise in re Trump, who was not elected by people who pined for REAL ID or a Palantir police state or for regime-changing any regime except the one that lives in Washington, DC. Well, so much for that.

What happened to RFK, Jr? And to Trump? Probably, it is one of two things and perhaps both.

The first is that they are bought. It requires the backing of the big money interests to get elected to anything at the national level and these interests expect to get what they paid for. They usually do. Certain interests spent a great deal of money to see Trump elected and it may well explain his recent actions. Who is he beholden to, after all? You and me and other ordinary Americans? Or Miriam Adelson? To ask the question is to answer it.

Now, it is true that Trump – and RFK, Jr. – both have their own money and plenty of it. But like most rich people, they prefer not to spend their own money when they can spend other people's money. But other people's money always comes with strings and if you look closely, you can often see them.
