RFK Jr. Was Right, Biden Is Biggest Threat To Democracy

![CDATA[

ANALYSIS – Robert Francis Kennedy Jr., son of Robert F. Kennedy, and heir to a Democrat political dynasty, created a lot of waves when he argued days ago on CNN that Joe Biden was a greater danger to democracy than Donald Trump.

Liberal democrats were apoplectic, while conservatives simply nodded in agreement with his remarks.

Specifically, Kennedy, who has made protecting freedom of speech central to his bid, and is now running as an independent, said that Trump’s efforts in 2020 to overturn the election results is “clearly a threat to democracy,” (which I would argue it was not) but that Biden poses a greater threat.

Key to RFK’s argument is how deeply Team Biden has colluded with social media platforms to curb whatever the Democrats and left designates as disinformation.

“The question was, who is a worse threat to democracy and what I would say is … I’m not going to answer that question, but I can argue that President Biden is,” RFK, Jr. said.

And he was right, despite his recent backtracking on those comments after the intense Democrat backlash.

Biden is guilty on all counts. And more. (RELATED: Superstar Athlete Under Criminal Investigation For Social Media Posts)

As The Federalist reported:

The biggest threat to “democracy” — if by democracy we still mean the Constitution — is when the powerful ignore limits of the state with impunity. From that perspective, Biden has been a cancer on “democracy.”

It added:

Kennedy contends that Biden “is the first candidate in history, the first president in history that [who] has used the federal agencies to censor political speech or censor his opponent.” One suspects Eugene Debs might quibble with this characterization, though not since the Committee on Public Information has there been a White House that has shown such disdain for free expression and debate.

The outlet added: “Biden is the first president to openly and secretly pressure major communication companies to take direction and work in conjunction with state agencies to censor debate.” (RELATED: Report: Facebook Targeted Tucker Carlson At White House’s Behest)

Meanwhile it noted:

…tech companies also spend tens of millions each year in Washington rent-seeking and lobbying for favorable regulations. They are highly susceptible to state intimidation. When Biden deputizes massive communication companies to act as censors, he’s merely taking a shortcut in the suppression of speech that undercuts, at the very minimum, the spirit and purpose of the First Amendment.

The Federalist continued:

The practical problem with allowing the state to dictate speech is that it will surely abuse the power by tagging inconvenient positions as “disinformation,” as it did with the Hunter Biden laptop story and as it did when pressuring Facebook to ban stories on the Chinese origins of Covid. Even if this were not the case, the state has no business guiding, engaging in, or suggesting any limits on free expression — even when it comes to real misinformation or disinformation. The president swore an oath to the Constitution, not the consensus of “experts.”

Beyond that, Biden’s politicized witch hunts against conservatives and weaponizing the Justice Department against Donald Trump and his supporters only add to Biden’s authoritarian streak and reinforce his contempt for America’s constitutional order.

Yes, Biden is the greatest threat to Democracy. And he must be stopped. While some conservatives worry that RFK, Jr. may take more votes from Trump than Biden, I’m not so sure.

Maybe RFK Jr. can help Trump defeat Biden. Either way, he is right about Biden.

Kennedy, who is polling better than any independent presidential candidate since Ross Perot in 1992, has escalated concerns by Democrats that he could siphon off a lot of votes from Biden in November.

To keep that from happening, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) has launched a major operation to counter Kennedy’s third-party bid.
