January 1, NYT Tries to Put a Wedge Between RFK Jr. and His Wife

In the whirlwind circus of Hollywood and politics, actress Cheryl Hines has strapped on her boots and saddled up, supporting her husband, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., in his daring bid for the presidency.

The New York Times recently ran a piece on this, pontificating about Hines’ risk of “normalizing” her husband’s so-called “dangerous ideas.”

This NYT article on RFK Jr's wife, the popular actress Cheryl Hines, is so revealing.

It's essentially saying: of course we must expel RFK from all precincts of decent liberal society: he's opposing Joe Biden! But is there a way we can let her remain?https://t.co/uarS7AwL1e

Isn’t that rich coming from the Times, that old hound of hypocrisy that pushed the false Russia collusion narrative for years? Talk about kettle calling the pot black!

Hines, known best for her role in “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” is a beacon of light in the grim political world her husband now navigates.

Though she’s spent decades away from the political fray, she now stands shoulder to shoulder with Kennedy, whose campaign, though a long shot, seemingly poses a threat to the establishment.

The Times article paints Kennedy as a maverick, spinning tales of vaccine skepticism and accusations that billionaire Bill Gates promotes vaccines for personal financial gain.

But who are they, the Times, to point a finger when they’ve spun tall tales themselves?

Seems to me, they’re more intent on finding monsters under the bed than addressing the real issues that plague our country.

Here’s the kicker: despite their skewed portrayal of Kennedy, the American public still yearns for a fair fight.

A recent poll suggests that eight in ten Democratic primary voters want to see President Biden step into the ring and debate his challengers, Kennedy included.

So maybe, just maybe, the people want more than the usual lip service. They want answers, they want accountability, and most importantly, they want truth.

Hines’ support for her husband, far from being seen as a tacit approval of “dangerous ideas,” could be viewed as an affirmation of the diversity of thought that makes our nation truly great.

Now, whether you agree with Kennedy’s views or not, that’s not the point here. The point is that we live in a country where ideas, even controversial ones, should be given a platform, be they on a Hollywood stage or a political one.

While the New York Times might be content with spinning webs of deceit, we, the hardworking folks of this country, prefer to hear all sides, chew on the facts, and make up our own minds.

So let them spin their tales, and let’s watch as Hines, the shining Hollywood star, illuminates the path for her underdog husband in his quest for the presidency. In the end, may truth and democracy prevail.
