Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. departed from his usual moderate posturing by coming out in favor of reparations.
Kennedy favoring reparations may be a politically strategic move to pull support from President Joe Biden, who has remained silent on the issue. Earlier this year, for instance, the White House refused to provide an answer on the subject, opting to leave it up to Congress.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters:
We understand that there’s a legislation on the Hill currently on this, on the study of reparations and we think Congress is the appropriate venue for consideration on such action. And so, we’re going to leave it there for Congress to decide, to let them go through their process that they’re taking at this moment.
Okay, a dollar a year for life. Taxable.
Well then > He is FINISHED !!!!! BYE BYE NOT Happening !!!!!
NO REPARATIONS
All Slave Owners & Slaves have Looong Been DEAD !!! Too late to make them Pay & WE Shure as Hell NOT
paying SHHHT !!!!!!
Clock’s ticking on his 15 minutes as a viable alternative candidate. He’s always had a wheel in the sand in addition to the usual Kennedy behaviors. Sign of desperation. Even Newson backed away from the idea.
Good bye, Robert!!!
WHITE people deserve the Reparations in AMERICA !!!!! For Affirmative Action ( Reverse Discrimination ) !!!
This was a tactical decision to pull votes away from Biden. Kennedy knows he has no hope of winning, but by announcing this he is setting himself up for a future run, and weakening Biden in the immediate future. To all railing against this, realize it is only a ploy.
