I managed to catch last night's live stream from the Charleston town hall, and really enjoyed RFK's speech (I somehow always learn something new from him). And also interesting to hear the views of some of the guests/would-be voters who turned up to listen.

I have live in Maui for 23 years on north shore an hour away. There would be no way of knowing what happened from here as the wind blows in that direction. Have many personal friends there one who lost his home and biz. There is massive anxiety and worse that is palpable. There is evidence that this was not a natural event but one made far far worse by the raging winds. The truth is emerging. In any case this island will never be the same. Think land grab by oligarchs. First Hawaiian 15 min city all conveniently blamed on Climate Hysteria. The country and world are ablaze and under attack...

The evil doers are dangerous and desperate. It is awful, the fog of war, like no other war.

I'm 85. You folks are looking at a man, RFK Jr. that has already said he would sign gun Legislation that was brought to him. He is just waiting to break his oath. Just like DJT.

Pragmatic persons are willing to compromise their integrity and my freedom, liberty, unalienable rights and due process as Codified in our Founding Documents for their best interests.

All cops know who the bad cops are!!. If you speak up or stand up you get no back up. Therefore they all close ranks with the thin blue line around the bad cops. There are no good cops only those that wished they were good... misprision of felony morphs into accessory after the fact, morphs into misprision of treason which morphs into treason.

Re: "But you are never going to hear that on MSNBC, because it is a nothing more than a mouthpiece of the DNC Machine." It is looonnngg overdue to confront them (and others) with vociferous demonstrations in a prolonged non-violent siege of their corporate offices.

I don’t know what all of you think, but this doesn’t look like a coincidence. Fires on islands, across the world, not mentioned in the mainstream media. Notice that non of the start on the same day. There is enough time in between for someone to travel to and from all these locations to set those fires:

July 18 (Tuesday), Rhodes, Greece

July 23, (Sunday), Corfu, Greece

July 24 (Monday), Sicily, Italy

July 25 (Tuesday), Evia, Greece

August 8 (Tuesday), Maui, Hawaii

August 16 (Tuesday), Tenerife, Spain

Does anyone have access to airline passenger data? If you do a search across all airlines that flew in/out these locations and find one or more passengers that have been arriving/departing these locations matching the dates of the fires. My gut is telling me you will get a hit if scanning the passenger data. This is very unlikely to be a coincidence.

The state I live in isn’t an issue. I want to know RFK Jr’s stance on this.

A little viewership context on MSNBC & it’s audience reach:

According to Nielsen live-plus-same-day data, NBCU’s politics-focused cabler averaged 1.12 million total viewers in primetime, No. 2 overall behind Fox News (flat) and -15% from June. The network also averaged 108,000 A25-54 in primetime (No. 23 on basic cable), which is 25% from June and the steepest month to month decline of cable news “big three.”

That key demographic 25-54 seems pretty weak to me. How many in that cohort are listening to Rogan?

I still haven't heard a good explanation of how Robert Kennedy could've made the comments he did about abortion. Personally, it's not a litmus issue for me, but I am worried about the blowback from this. As we have seen in many State elections since the overturning of Roe versus Wade, this is an issue that you need to be incredibly careful about. Low information voters are only going to read the mainstream media headlines and never see any clarification.

Thinking about how many billions of taxpayer’s Dollars the Biden administration has sent to the Ukraine, his administration’s response to the Maui wildfires is beyond shameful!

I am ashamed to be a citizen of this country. Every day we reach now lows on how badly we treat our own people.

If the “Bidenomics” were as successful as they claim, then there should be plenty of money that could be used to help the people of Maui. Of course that is all a scam. They think they just have to say it often enough and then we’ll believe it. They are notorious liars, do not believe anything they are saying. Do your own research!!

If you want to help Maui fire victims, show the federal and local government how, we the people, do a much better job than they do, and donate directly to them:

So where does he stand on abortion? This is very important to me.

“This is very important to me”

In that case, you need to be keeping your focus on actions by your State Governor and Legislators.

The more I think about this the more upset I am by your comment AG. It feels as though you are suggesting that my focus should not be on what the Presidential candidates believe about this issue - what they plan do to once they get into office. Why wouldn't I be concerned about this?

I am just expressing doubt that much will be done at the federal level now that the overturn of Roe v Wade makes abortion policy a state issue — which is creating new policies across the country. I know it happened in my state.

What I want to see at the national level is constitutional religious protections so that being pro- life is *actionable* and not illegal (or basically relegated to a mere belief.)

And frankly, even that has come under attack by the feds under Biden. There is this little “rat out your pro-life neighbor” initiative called the “Civic Listening Corps.”

So concern is certainly warranted, I think it just needs a new focus post Roe’s overturn.

I hear you. I am pro-choice and I didn't realize that pro-life advocates felt "ratted on". I don't think tho that anyone who doesn't want to have an abortion is being forced into it. What do you mean by pro-life needs to be actionable? Id' like to understand your point of view. In my view, since the overturn of Roe V. Wade, in some states, women who want abortions - or need them in some cases - can't access them. If Kennedy is intending to place a 3 month limit on the period that a woman can access an abortion that will be very disturbing to me. My body, my choice should apply to vaccines, abortions, transgender surgery...anything that an ADULT chooses to do with their body. Don't want an abortion/vaccine/etc? Don't have one. Period.

I really appreciate your civil reply. By actionable I mean being allowed to provide services for pregnant women whether it be counseling or housing or adoption services or other pre & post natal care without legal threats. I also think that silent prayer -- anywhere -- should be an action that is not subject to arrest or law enforcement harassment. Just as I think pro-choice folks should be allowed to have protest marches or other constitutional activities. Unfortunately, I think that there are folks on the left who truly want to portray those who act on their pro-life stance as "domestic terrorists." Hence, the training offered by the Civic Listening Corp uses "your pro-life neighbor" as someone to keep an eye on. I was aware that Kennedy spoke about a 3 month limit, but I think any federal level action on this issue should be instigated by the legislature branch, not the executive branch. The 'setback' for pro-choice movement was, I think, because they did not use the 50 years available to them to write a better law in keeping with the broadest consensus, which now seems to be around limits to abortion that fall around 12-15 weeks. Both "a complete ban" and "late term abortion on demand" seem to be minority views within our democracy.

I would like to ask Kennedy what he'll do about energy since he's an environmentalist and not for oil drilling.
