Sean bienvenidos a un nuevo Spaces en directo desde Twitter. Esta será una entradilla corta para hablar sobre los orígenes del poder de la familia Kennedy, para ello voy a utilizar un artículo de la web vigilant citizen,ciudadano vigilante, una especie de técnico preocupado pero de USA. Dice así: “Los Kennedy fueron considerados, en su momento, la Familia Real de Estados Unidos: una poderosa dinastía que además era querida y admirada por el público. Sin embargo, la asombrosa "Maldición Kennedy" impactó profundamente a la familia, ya que numerosos miembros perdieron la vida a temprana edad y en extrañas circunstancias. Esta serie de artículos revelará datos menos conocidos sobre los Kennedy y explicará cómo el destino de la familia se relaciona con el gobierno en la sombra que gobierna Estados Unidos. Joseph Patrick Kennedy Sr. fue quien orquestó el ascenso de la familia al poder. Fue una figura destacada del Partido Demócrata y de la comunidad católica irlandesa de Estados Unidos. También fue un exitoso hombre de negocios, pues amasó una fortuna comprando y fusionando varios estudios cinematográficos de Hollywood e importando y distribuyendo bebidas alcohólicas en Estados Unidos después de la Ley Seca. Durante su carrera política, Kennedy se convirtió en un asesor cercano del presidente Franklin D. Roosevelt y fue nombrado presidente inaugural de la Comisión de Bolsa y Valores de Estados Unidos (SEC). En 1938, fue nombrado embajador de Estados Unidos en el Reino Unido, un prestigioso cargo donde estableció vínculos con la nobleza británica y presenció los inicios de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Trató con personas pertenecientes a los "linajes Illuminati" (según la definición de Fritz Springmeier), como los Rothschild, los Astor y los Sassoon. Mantuvo una estrecha relación con el magnate periodístico y figura destacada de los Illuminati, William Randolph Hearst, quien posteriormente contribuyó al despegue de la carrera de JFK. Durante la carrera política de Kennedy Sr., asesoró a Roosevelt, masón de grado 33 y primer Gran Maestro Honorario de la Orden de DeMolay. Roosevelt, quien también fue asesorado por los notables ocultistas Manly P. Hall y Nicholas Roerich, ordenó la colocación del Sello de los Estados Unidos (el símbolo Illuminati de la pirámide con el ojo que todo lo ve) en el billete de dólar. Joe Kennedy Sr. también formó parte de varias órdenes de élite, como los Caballeros de Malta y la Sociedad de Peregrinos, un grupo altamente secreto que incluía entre sus miembros a los Rockefeller, los Vanderbilt, JP Morgan, miembros de la realeza británica, varios líderes de la Sociedad Skull and Bones, masones, Caballeros Templarios y presidentes de la Reserva Federal, así como ejecutivos de importantes empresas y medios de comunicación. De hecho, la Sociedad de Peregrinos es probablemente el grupo de élite más influyente que existe. En 1944, Kathleen, hija de Joe Kennedy, se casó con William Cavendish, duque de Devonshire (un cargo muy prestigioso dentro de la nobleza británica). El duque de Devonshire era Gran Maestro de la Gran Logia Unida de Inglaterra, el órgano rector de la mayoría de los masones en Inglaterra, Gales, Estados Unidos y la Commonwealth. Tras el fallecimiento prematuro de su hija, Joseph Kennedy declaró: Si Kathleen y su esposo vivieran, yo sería el padre de la duquesa de Devonshire (primera dama de compañía de la reina) y el suegro del líder de todos los masones del mundo. Por lo tanto, Joseph Kennedy estaba muy bien conectado con la élite oculta y los linajes Illuminati de Estados Unidos y Gran Bretaña. Si bien albergaba la esperanza de convertirse en candidato presidencial, su oportunidad se cerró cuando, ante la amenaza de una invasión nazi, declaró que «la democracia en Gran Bretaña ha terminado», añadiendo que «la batalla por Gran Bretaña no se trata de democracia, eso son puras tonterías». A puerta cerrada, Kennedy también fue descubierto simpatizando con Hitler y el movimiento nazi. También se le citó profiriendo diversas declaraciones antisemitas en conversaciones con los Astor. Consciente de que la indignación que causaba le impediría llegar a la presidencia, Kennedy padre actuó entre bastidores y se concentró en «colocar» a sus hijos en puestos de poder. Tenía la riqueza y, aún más importante, los contactos con la élite necesarios para que sus planes se hicieran realidad.” Robert F. Kennedy Jr., nacido el 17 de enero de 1954 en Washington D.C., es un abogado, activista ambiental y figura pública estadounidense, y su reciente papel como Secretario de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS) desde febrero de 2025, lo que ha generado controversia, especialmente por sus políticas sobre vacunas. Conocido por ser parte de la influyente familia Kennedy. Hijo de Robert F. Kennedy, exfiscal general y senador, y sobrino del presidente John F. Kennedy, ha forjado su propio camino, centrándose principalmente en el activismo ambiental y, más recientemente, en posturas controvertidas sobre la salud pública. Como presidente de la Waterkeeper Alliance (Alianza para la protección del agua), una organización dedicada a la protección de los recursos hídricos, Kennedy ha liderado esfuerzos para combatir la contaminación y promover esa palabreja tan manida por los de la agenda 2030, la sostenibilidad, ganándose reconocimiento por su trabajo en defensa del medio ambiente. Su trayectoria como abogado ambientalista incluye casos destacados contra grandes corporaciones por daños ecológicos, aunque si rascamos un poco vemos que la asociación Riverkeeper, la organización fundadora del movimiento fue la que logro la recuperación del rio Hudson por mas de mil millones de dólares. Ambas organizaciones fueron pioneras en reclamar la "restauración" de los ríos, un eufemismo que en realidad significa la destrucción de presas y otras infraestructuras hidráulicas y energéticas. Modelo que se ha replicado en todo el mundo golpeando especialmente a España. Los otros litigios han sido muy mediáticos pero en realidad hablamos de poco dinero y poca afectación para las multinacionales que contaminan el planeta de verdad. Kennedy comenzó su carrera profesional como asistente de distrito en Manhattan y, en la década de 1980, se unió a organizaciones como Riverkeeper y el Consejo de Defensa de Recursos Naturales (NRDC), enfocándose en la protección ambiental. En 1986, se convirtió en profesor adjunto de derecho ambiental en la Universidad Pace y, en 1987, fundó la Clínica de Litigios Ambientales de Pace. En 1999, fundó Waterkeeper Alliance, de la cual fue presidente durante 21 años, liderando esfuerzos globales para proteger los recursos hídricos. Su trabajo incluyó demandas exitosas contra municipios y corporaciones por violaciones de la Ley del Agua Limpia, consolidándolo como una voz prominente en la defensa del medio ambiente. Recibió reconocimientos como "Héroe del Planeta" de la revista TIME y el Premio Sartisky a la Paz, reflejando su impacto en este ámbito. Nosotros sabemos que Roma no premia a traidores, ergo, el no ha traicionado a Roma. Su carrera inicial se centró en la conservación de ecosistemas y la lucha contra la contaminación, especialmente en el impacto de estas en la salud humana. En 2014, co-fundó Children's Health Defense, una organización dedicada a abordar el aumento de condiciones crónicas infantiles, como el autismo, lo que marcó su transición hacia temas de salud pública. Children’s Health Defense (CHD), fundada por Robert F. Kennedy Jr., mantiene una postura crítica hacia la vacuna triple vírica (MMR, contra sarampión, paperas y rubéola), centrada en cuestionar su seguridad, eficacia y obligatoriedad. Esta afirmación se basa en el estudio de Andrew Wakefield de 1998, que relacionaba la MMR con el autismo. Dicho estudio fue retractado por supuestos fraudes científicos aunque si investigamos veremos que se trata de una argucia legal. A través de su sitio web, redes sociales y documentales como Vaxxed (coproducido por CHD), la organización difunde mensajes que cuestionan la MMR, alegando que los riesgos no se divulgan adecuadamente. Esta organización y sus posturas han sido criticadas por promover teorías conspirativas, como la idea de que la enfermedad de Lyme es un arma biológica, una afirmación que revivió en una audiencia del Senado el 5 de febrero de 2025. En los últimos años, Kennedy se ha posicionado como un crítico vocal de las políticas de vacunación, cuestionando el consenso científico y promoviendo escepticismo hacia las vacunas. Esto ha generado una polarización significativa, con seguidores que ven en él un defensor de la libertad individual y críticos que lo acusan de difundir desinformación. Sus libros, como “Timerosal: Que hable la ciencia” (2014), reflejan su enfoque en los supuestos riesgos de los conservantes en vacunas. Kennedy es un charlatán que solo está redefiniendo el negocio de los laboratorios mientras engaña, esperanza e ilusiona a los ingenuos. En unas recientes declaraciones dijo sobre las vacunas covid que “no superan los beneficios supuestos”, además de mencionar la “falta de datos de alta calidad que demuestren la seguridad de las vacunas de ARNm durante el embarazo” y la incertidumbre en cuanto a los beneficios para las madres gestantes y sus bebés”. Pero como podemos ver en la web del CDC, Notas del calendario de vacunación infantil, se sigue vacunando a bebes a partir de los 6 meses contra una enfermedad imaginaria como es el covid, con vacunas que se ha visto que presentan muchas reacciones adversas. Independientemente de las palabras de Kennedy al final las mujeres embarazadas son "personas de riesgo" para el CDC y por tanto se las recomienda vacunarse del covid. La administración bajo el mandato de Kennedy ha dicho que «todas las nuevas vacunas se someterán a pruebas de seguridad en ensayos controlados con placebo antes de su autorización», sin embargo la FDA acaba de aprobar una nueva inyección de Moderna sin un solo ensayo controlado con placebo. Los estudios con placebo empezarían a finales de este año y concluirían en 2027, pero la vacuna mNexspike de baja dosis ya esta en el mercado para personas de 65 años o mas o entre los 12 y 64 con al menos uno o más factores de riesgo subyacentes. Es más, Kennedy está permitiendo que siga la investigación para encontrar vacunas a la carta. Al respecto dijo: ”Un impulso para sustituir las vacunas de talla única por vacunas genéticamente personalizadas que sean seguras y eficaces para todos”. Leemos en una nota de prensa del Departamento de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS) del pasado 1 de mayo lo siguiente: “Washington, D.C. - Departamento de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS) y los Institutos Nacionales de Salud (NIH) anunciaron hoy el desarrollo de la plataforma de vacunas universales de próxima generación, Generation Gold Standard, utilizando una plataforma de beta-propioctona (BPL) activada por todovirus. Esta iniciativa representa un cambio decisivo hacia la transparencia, la eficacia y la preparación integral, financiando el desarrollo interno de vacunas universales contra la gripe y el coronavirus de los NIH, incluidos los candidatos BPL-1357 y BPL-24910. Estas vacunas tienen como objetivo proporcionar una protección de amplio espectro contra múltiples cepas de virus propensos a pandemias como la gripe aviar H5N1 y los coronavirus como SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV-1, y MERS-CoV. Nuestro compromiso es claro: toda innovación en el desarrollo de vacunas debe basarse en la ciencia y la transparencia del patrón oro, y sometida a los más altos estándares de pruebas de seguridad y eficacia, dijo el secretario del HHS, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.” Nos están hablando no solo del covid, si no de la gripe aviar y el virus MERS… En abril de 2024, Kennedy lanzó una campaña para la nominación presidencial del Partido Demócrata, pero en octubre de ese año anunció que correría como independiente, rompiendo con el partido al que su familia ha estado históricamente vinculada. Su campaña se centró en temas como la libertad individual, la transparencia gubernamental y la reforma del sistema de salud, pero enfrentó desafíos en términos de apoyo y cobertura mediática. El 23 de agosto de 2024, suspendió su campaña y respaldó a Donald Trump en un mitin en Arizona, con la intención de mantener su presencia en la boleta en estados no competitivos. Este movimiento fue visto como una estrategia para influir en la política nacional, especialmente en temas de salud. El 14 de noviembre de 2024, Donald Trump lo nominó para el cargo de Secretario de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS), un puesto que asumió el 13 de febrero de 2025, tras una confirmación ajustada en el Senado con un voto de 52 a 48, donde Mitch McConnell fue el único republicano en votar en contra. Este nombramiento marcó un hito, ya que Kennedy se convirtió en el primer candidato presidencial independiente en ocupar un puesto de gabinete después de postularse para la presidencia. Su confirmación enfrentó oposición, con más de 17,000 médicos firmando una carta en enero de 2025 instando al Senado a rechazar su nominación, reflejando las preocupaciones sobre sus posturas en salud pública. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., al asumir el cargo de secretario de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS), poseía una cartera de inversión considerable que incluía acciones en empresas que, en teoría, debería regular en su rol. Según una carta de información presentada el 21 de enero de 2025, a pocos días de asumir su cargo, ante la Oficina de Ética Gubernamental de Estados Unidos, RFK Jr. se comprometió a desinvertir en varias compañías, incluidas las biotecnológicas CRISPR Therapeutics y Dragonfly Therapeutics, en un plazo de 90 días si era confirmado para el puesto. El invertía en empresas de terapias genéticas tales como CRISPR Therapeutics y Dragonfly mientras advertía de los riesgos de esas mismas terapias a través de su Fundación Children's Health Defens, en lo que consideramos una acción hipócrita. Un documento separado detalla un extenso listado de relaciones económicas, que incluye inversiones en empresas destacadas como Amazon, Apple, Vanguard, Citibank, Deutsche Bank, Rockefeller Access Fund, Disney, Warner Bros, entre otras, evidenciando la magnitud de su portafolio. Desde su toma de posesión, Kennedy ha implementado una serie de políticas controvertidas. El 13 de febrero de 2025, firmó la Orden Ejecutiva 14211, creando la Comisión "Make America Healthy Again" (MAHA), que preside, con el objetivo de investigar las enfermedades crónicas infantiles y evaluar las amenazas de los medicamentos con receta. El 22 de mayo de 2025, lanzó el informe MAHA, que posteriormente fue criticado por contener citas a estudios inexistentes, con la Casa Blanca atribuyendo los errores a problemas de formato. El 29 de mayo de 2025, se informó que su equipo agregó nuevos errores al informe, empeorando la situación. Otras acciones incluyen el despido de aproximadamente 5,200 trabajadores federales de salud recién contratados de agencias como los CDC y el NIH el 14 de febrero de 2025, y la eliminación de la mayoría del personal del Instituto Nacional para la Seguridad y Salud Ocupacional en abril de 2025, cancelando programas como las aprobaciones de equipos de seguridad para el lugar de trabajo y la investigación sobre la salud de los bomberos. El 9 de junio de 2025, removió a los 17 miembros del Comité Asesor sobre Prácticas de Inmunización (ACIP) de los CDC y los reemplazó con nuevos miembros, una decisión que generó críticas por potenciales conflictos de interés. El 20 de febrero de 2025, instruyó a los CDC a suspender las campañas publicitarias de vacunación contra la gripe durante una temporada de influenza severa, enfocándose en el "consentimiento informado". Durante un brote de sarampión en el suroeste de los Estados Unidos en 2025, que reportó 146 casos, 20 hospitalizaciones y 1 muerte en Texas a finales de febrero, Kennedy hizo comentarios públicos el 26 de febrero de 2025, afirmando falsamente que hubo dos muertes y cuatro brotes ese año (16 en 2024), y sugirió que la cuarentena fue la principal razón de las hospitalizaciones, lo cual fue refutado. Promovió tratamientos marginales como el aceite de hígado de bacalao y la vitamina A, y escribió un artículo de opinión en Fox News el 2 de marzo de 2025, calificando a las vacunas de "elección personal" y recomendando vitaminas, lo que llevó a informes de toxicidad por vitamina A en niños infectados. El 28 de marzo de 2025, enfrentó más críticas por promover tratamientos no convencionales, como vitaminas, lo que generó alarma entre los profesionales de la salud. El 25 de marzo de 2025, su desinformación llevó a la renuncia del principal encargado de la comunicación de salud pública de los CDC, y el 3 de marzo de 2025, el principal portavoz de HHS también renunció, citando "desinformación y mentiras". El 28 de marzo de 2025, el principal oficial de vacunas de la FDA también renunció por razones similares. En julio de 2025, Kennedy enfrenta demandas legales significativas. El 7 de julio de 2025, la Academia Americana de Pediatría, la Asociación Americana de Salud Pública y otras organizaciones médicas demandaron a HHS y a Kennedy por cambios unilaterales en las recomendaciones de vacunas, específicamente por eliminar las recomendaciones de vacunas contra el COVID-19, argumentando que estas acciones son ilegales. Estas demandas reflejan la creciente oposición de la comunidad médica a sus políticas. Además, el 25 de junio de 2025, acusó a Gavi, una agencia global de vacunas, de ignorar la ciencia en la inmunización de niños, una afirmación que ha sido controvertida y criticada por expertos. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. elogió recientemente la Operación Warp Speed, (lanzada en mayo de 2020, bajo la administración de Donald Trump, con el objetivo de acelerar el desarrollo, la producción y la distribución de vacunas, tratamientos y diagnósticos para la COVID-19), calificándola de "logro extraordinario" y "demostración de liderazgo" del expresidente Donald Trump. Esta declaración supone un cambio notable para Kennedy, que anteriormente había criticado la iniciativa. Sus comentarios se realizaron durante una audiencia en el Senado, destacando las complejidades de la lealtad política y la evolución de las narrativas que rodean el despliegue de la vacuna COVID-19 de la administración Trump. Las acciones de Kennedy como Secretario de HHS han generado un debate intenso sobre el equilibrio entre la libertad individual y la responsabilidad pública en salud. Su promoción de la iniciativa MAHA, incluyendo giras por estados como Oklahoma y Louisiana en julio de 2025, busca revolucionar el sistema de salud, pero muchos lo ven como una fuente de temor por su enfoque en teorías marginales y su rechazo al consenso científico. Su legado como activista ambiental sigue siendo notable, como dijimos fue miembro y directivo del grupo ambientalista Riverkeeper. El bagaje de esta ONG inspiró un libro cuyo prologo fue escrito por el también promotor de los créditos de carbono Al Gore. Robert Kennedy es un calentólogo que dio un discurso durante el concierto de la misma temática catastrofista llamado Live Earth que organizó David Rothschild y Al Gore entre otros. Robert F. Kennedy Jr durante “la Marcha Popular por el Clima” en Nueva York que se llevó a cabo el domingo 21 de septiembre de 2014 dijo: “que es lamentable que no existan leyes para reducir el escepticismo sobre el cambio climático entre los legisladores” y “"Ojalá existiera una ley que los castigara”. ¿No tiene ojos en la cara el señor Kennedy para ver que la geoingeneria está detrás del supuesto cambio climático? El ayuntamiento de Adeje, en la isla de Tenerife, le pago una visita para hablar sobre el cambio climático. Un ayuntamiento de un pueblo de 50.000 habitantes trae a una superestrella como el señor Kennedy para que les cuente una milonga que solo han visto unas 100 personas en Youtube. Les pondremos la charla en la descripción del podcast. Y es que hay mucho dinero para este tipo de campañas que en realidad promueven la Agenda 2030 al igual que otras supuestas luchas como la libertad sexual. RFK Jr. ha sido un luchador por la comunidad LGBT y el "matrimonio igualitario". En 2011 se unió a su Campaña de Derechos Humanos en Nueva York junto a Mike Bloomberg, Fren Drescher, Kevin Bacon, Whoopi Goldberg y otros. Es una marioneta mas del poder al igual que lo fue su tio o cualquier otro miembro de la familia Kennedy. El New York Post lo relacionó presuntamente con Epstein y el Lolita express, en un largo y documentado artículo publicado en diciembre de 2023. No solo muestra una fotografía de RFK Jr. y su amante durante una fiesta que ofreció Epstein en 1994 si no que recoge declaraciones del propio Kennedy reconociendo que viajo por lo menos dos veces en el avión del pederasta en compañía de niños. Su amante por aquel entonces que luego terminaría siendo su esposa, Mary Richardson Kennedy, se suicidó en 2012 dos años después de divorciarse de Kennedy. Por aquel entonces estaban empezando a salir a la luz los escándalos de Epstein. En el New York Post podemos leer: “Kennedy era tan cercano a Epstein que el multimillonario tenía una larga entrada para “Kennedy, Bobby y Mary” en su “pequeña libreta negra”, que incluía contactos de personas de la alta sociedad y políticos, así como de las jóvenes a las que agredió sexualmente.” Christina Oxenberg miembro de la depuesta familia real serbia (el príncipe Andrés de Gran Bretaña es primo segundo), es una vieja amiga de la familia Kennedy y escribió un libro en 2021 donde habla de esa relación: “Esos viajes tuvieron lugar hace aproximadamente 30 años, mucho antes de que la conducta criminal del Sr. Epstein fuera de conocimiento público”. “En junio de 1989, el magnate de la prensa británica Robert Maxwell organizó una fiesta en el Lady Ghislaine, a orillas del Potomac, en Washington, D. C. Entre los invitados se encontraban el reverendo Jesse Jackson, exsecretario de Defensa, el director de la CIA y dos Kennedy.” Robert Maxwell era el padre de la compinche de Epstein, la supuesta madame, que atraía y manejaba a las chicas jóvenes con las que Epstein chantajeaba a la flor y nata mundial. Una Doctora que huyó a México estuvo denunciando a este particular Kennedy de que le estaba enviando acoso mafioso organizado e intentos de asesinato con tipos de la C I A. Esto durante la plandemia, antes de ingresar como miembro del "gobierno" actual de USA. Por supuesto este tipo de noticias son tildadas de bulo por las agencias verificadoras. Pero conozcamos un poco de dónde vienen estas agencias. Y es que la CIA, las agencia de verificación y los Kennedy son como uña y carne como se puede ver en documentos desclasificados de la propia CIA. Desde 1985 la CIA planeó como introducir sus ideas en el público. Para ello se infiltró junto al FBI en varias universidades como la Escuela de Gobierno Kennedy de Harvard. Desde allí se empezaron a crear las primeras agencias de fact checking como Crosscheck y otras bajo agencias como First Draft...agencia cuya supervisión recae en la propia CIA. Para Maldita.es la verdad brota de estas fuentes. Como os digo la propia CIA dio una conferencia en 1987 para dejar claro que las mentes más privilegiadas debían compartir pupitre con algunos de sus agentes. Esto es ya es duro de por si...pero aún no es nada para lo que esconden estas agencias de verificación. Una pequeña búsqueda os arrojará quién está detrás de la financiación de las principales. Incluyendo las españolas maldito bulo y otras. Las Fundaciones Avina y Ashoka son sus principales garantes. Nuestros amigos de Desmontando a Babylon nos lo contaron en varias ocasiones como en BdlV - dab radio temporada 7.0 Episodio 03 No somos m ashokas Clara Jiménez Cruz, la cofundadora y CEO de Maldito Bulo fue elegida Ashoka Fellow (una changemaker) en 2019. ¿Qué es eso de Ashoka y de que va ese tema de los changemakers, los hacedores del cambio o emprendedores sociales? Básicamente hablamos de unas cuantas familias poderosas, entre ellas la suiza Schmidheiny y la belga Emsens y De Cartier, todas ellas propietarias de las multinacionales que explotaron el amianto, creando y financiando estas agencias de verificación con la complicidad, como no, de los Estados Unidos. Así que ya veis, las multinacionales que contaminaron con amianto todo el mundo occidental y que han provocado cientos de miles de muertes por cáncer están detrás de las agencias que verifican si la información es real. De esto no oiréis hablar nunca al flamante RFK Jr. Estamos ante un político que habla sin dejar clara su postura en muchos puntos importantes, por ejemplo, durante su comparecencia en la audiencia del 29 de enero de 2025 para considerar su nominación como Secretario de Salud y Servicios Humanos le hicieron esta pregunta sobre la IA: “La inteligencia artificial está transformando la investigación, el desarrollo y la prestación de servicios sanitarios. Tiene el potencial de mejorar la atención al paciente, los resultados sanitarios y la eficiencia. La IA también podría ser utilizada por los pagadores para limitar el acceso de los pacientes y crear obstáculos adicionales. ¿Qué papel cree que desempeñará el HHS en la gobernanza de esta tecnología transformadora?" Y esta fue su respuesta: “La inteligencia artificial tiene el potencial de cambiar fundamentalmente la forma en que se prestan los servicios sanitarios y los servicios humanos. Teniendo esto en cuenta, es posible que sea necesario considerar nuevas políticas y enfoques en toda la industria y el gobierno. El HHS puede apoyar mejor a los pacientes ofreciendo un entorno regulatorio claro y estable, cuando sea apropiado, con respecto a la seguridad, la eficacia y la transparencia, al tiempo que crea un amplio espacio para que el sector privado innove y amplíe la competitividad de Estados Unidos.” Le preguntaron sobre la transparencia. “Sr. Kennedy, la primera administración Trump tomó medidas importantes para mejorar la transparencia en la atención médica. Los programas y requisitos de transparencia en la atención médica, si se amplían, podrían ofrecer una oportunidad única para ayudar de manera significativa a reducir los costos de la atención médica y mejorar la calidad de los resultados. Si se confirma su nombramiento, ¿seguirá apoyando estos esfuerzos mediante la implementación de programas piloto de transparencia adicionales y políticas del HHS para ampliar aún más el trabajo que el gobierno federal ya ha comenzado en materia de transparencia?” Respuesta: R: “Si se confirma mi nombramiento, me comprometo a instaurar la transparencia en todos los programas y actividades del HHS, para que los estadounidenses puedan recuperar la confianza en el sistema sanitario. Además, espero con interés trabajar con el Congreso para presentar reformas legislativas que proporcionen a los estadounidenses una transparencia sin precedentes en su sistema sanitario.” Le preguntaron por la pandemia de Covid y se limito a contestar como lo haría un político. “La pandemia de COVID-19 puso de relieve el papel fundamental de la telesalud, que permite a los pacientes mantenerse en contacto con sus equipos de atención médica mientras permanecen seguros en sus hogares. Pero más allá de la pandemia, la telesalud sigue ofreciendo esperanza e innovación, desde el apoyo a los servicios de salud mental hasta la gestión de enfermedades crónicas, la mejora de la atención materna e incluso la solución de la escasez de personal en el sector sanitario. Presenté la Ley de Modernización de la Telesalud, un proyecto de ley bipartidista para hacer permanentes las flexibilidades de telesalud promulgadas durante la pandemia de COVID-19, con el fin de garantizar la cobertura continua y el acceso a la atención médica para los estadounidenses. Si se confirma, ¿cómo planea el HHS trabajar con el Congreso para garantizar que millones de beneficiarios de Medicare no pierdan el acceso a los servicios de telesalud y caigan abruptamente en el «precipicio de la telesalud»?” Respuesta: “La telesalud es una herramienta importante para proporcionar acceso a una gama de servicios de atención médica cruciales, especialmente para quienes viven en zonas rurales y en áreas con escasez de proveedores. Si se confirma mi nombramiento, espero trabajar con el Congreso para garantizar que los modos innovadores de prestación de atención médica, como la telesalud, maximicen la calidad y el acceso a la atención para los beneficiarios de Medicare.” Y es que durante el Covid se gano mucho dinero sometiendo a la población a medidas tan absurdas como usar un bozal que no servia para nada. Tenemos un escándalo en España que relaciona a la oficina de la Fundación Human Rights que dirige Kennedy con este tema de las mascarillas. El hijo de Nati Abascal se compró entre otras cosas un yate de 13 metros de eslora con sus comisiones. Encima bautizó a la embarcación como Feria en honor al titulo nobiliario que ostenta la familia, el del famoso pederasta Duque de Feria. Fue la presidenta de la universidad americana CIS, María Díaz de la Cebosa que es a la vez la persona que lleva en España la fundación Human Rights que preside Kennedy la que le facilitó al imputado Luis Medina el teléfono de Carlos Martínez-Almeida, el primo del alcalde de Madrid, José Luis Martínez-Almeida. Los dos empresarios imputados se llevaron 6 millones de euros de un contrato para la compra de material sanitario. El hijo de Naty Abascal y su exsocio, absueltos de estafar al Ayuntamiento de Madrid, todo quedo en agua de borrajas. Le preguntan sobre el SIDA y responde esto: “El presupuesto anual del Instituto Nacional de Alergias y Enfermedades Infecciosas impulsa investigaciones fundamentales; entre los ejemplos se incluyen el desarrollo exitoso de nuevas vacunas contra el VRS, un fármaco aprobado por la FDA que retrasa la aparición de la diabetes tipo 1, una vacuna de ARNm contra el VIH y mucho más. Explique por qué planea detener este trabajo y a quién beneficiará.” Respuesta: “Si se confirma mi nombramiento, espero evaluar todas las agencias y programas para asegurarme de que están cumpliendo la misión de devolver la salud a los estadounidenses.” Las agencias de verificación son un invento, como hemos visto antes, de las grandes multinacionales y estas mismas empresas siguen trabajando sin cortapisas bajo la administración de este supuesto antivacunas que no lo es tal. Estas agencias no nos contaran la verdad jamas y no hablaran de la relación de este Kennedy con los grupos antivacunas que promocionan en verdad la Agenda 2030 y la Nueva era. Ni de esto ni de la La trágica historia de Rosemary, la hermana de J.F. Kennedy a quien su padre mandó a lobotomizar. Yo no me fiaría mucho de una familia que es capaz de realizarle una lobotomía a una pobre joven con problemas derivados de su nacimiento. En el parto no pudo respirar por no dejar que saliera de forma natural esperando casi dos horas por un médico que no llegaba. Una criada mantuvo las piernas cerradas de la madre… Hablamos de una joven con pequeños trastornos de aprendizaje que llegó a socializar con la realeza británica. Fue expulsada de Inglaterra por las declaraciones de su padre que afirmaba “que Reino Unido no podía ganar la guerra y que la democracia había terminado”. Regreso a USA y al final fue recluida en un convento...era incontrolable y una Kennedy incontrolable es un problema de estado. En un articulo de BBC news leemos: “Encerrada en un convento, se volvió desafiante a las restricciones. Las monjas no pudieron controlarla. "Muchas noches", recordó la prima de Rosemary, Ann Gargan, "la escuela llamaba a decir que había desaparecido y la encontraban vagando por las calles a las 2 a.m.". Pronto se supo que Rosemary se estaba escapando, según un compañero paciente que compartió muchos años del confinamiento posterior de Rosemary, para ir a tabernas y encontrarse con hombres en busca de atención, consuelo y sexo, escribió Elizabeth Koehler-Pentacoff en The Missing Kennedy.” Su padre tenía aspiraciones políticas para sus hijos y Rosemary era un peligro así que decidió someterla a una lobotomía con solo 23 años. Seguimos leyendo en BBC news: “Tras perforar agujeros en el cráneo de Rosemary, Freeman insertó un cuchillo y comenzó a cortar los lóbulos frontales de su cerebro. Atada a la mesa, ella estaba despierta y aterrorizada durante el procedimiento. De repente, se quedó en silencio y cayó en la inconsciencia. La operación había sido un catastrófico fracaso. Rosemary quedó sin poder caminar ni hablar. Incluso después de años de terapia, no podía pronunciar más que unas pocas palabras y nunca recuperó completamente el uso de sus extremidades.” Murió en 2005, a los 86 años tras pasar 63 largos años aislada, recluida en centros de internamiento privados sin recibir visitas. Si son capaces de hacer eso con uno de los suyos, que no serán capaces de hacer con un extraño. A continuación se presenta una lista de los principales eventos considerados parte de la «Maldición Kennedy». Si bien es improbable que todos estos eventos fueran resultado de una conspiración contra la familia, es difícil ignorar el fuerte patrón de sincronicidad, también conocido como «coincidencias significativas», asociado con los Kennedy. 1941—Se creía a menudo que Rosemary Kennedy padecía problemas mentales. Algunas fuentes afirmaban que padecía enfermedades mentales, como depresión y esquizofrenia. Debido a sus cambios de humor cada vez más violentos y severos, su padre, Joe Sr., organizó en secreto que se sometiera a una lobotomía. La lobotomía, en cambio, deterioró aún más sus capacidades cognitivas y, como resultado, Rosemary permaneció internada hasta su fallecimiento en 2005. 12 de agosto de 1944—Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr. murió cuando su avión explotó sobre East Suffolk, Inglaterra, como parte del Proyecto Anvil. 13 de mayo de 1948—Kathleen Cavendish, marquesa de Hartington, murió en un accidente aéreo en Francia. 23 de agosto de 1956: Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy dio a luz a una hija muerta, Arabella. (Aunque está enterrada en el Cementerio Nacional de Arlington junto a sus padres con una placa que dice "Hija", sus padres tenían la intención de llamarla Arabella). 9 de agosto de 1963—Patrick Bouvier Kennedy murió dos días después de su nacimiento prematuro. 22 de noviembre de 1963—El presidente estadounidense John F. Kennedy fue asesinado en Dallas, Texas. Lee Harvey Oswald fue acusado del crimen, pero Jack Ruby lo mató a tiros dos días después, antes de que pudiera celebrarse el juicio. El FBI y la Comisión Warren concluyeron oficialmente que Oswald fue el único asesino. Sin embargo, el Comité Selecto de la Cámara de Representantes de Estados Unidos sobre Asesinatos (HSCA) concluyó que dichas investigaciones presentaban graves deficiencias y que Kennedy probablemente fue asesinado como resultado de una conspiración. 19 de junio de 1964—El senador estadounidense Edward M. “Ted” Kennedy sufrió un accidente aéreo en el que fallecieron uno de sus asesores y el piloto. Fue rescatado de los restos por su colega senador Birch E. Bayh II y pasó semanas hospitalizado recuperándose de una fractura de espalda, un pulmón perforado, costillas rotas y una hemorragia interna. 5 de junio de 1968—El senador estadounidense Robert F.

Washington, D.C. - Departamento de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS) y los Institutos Nacionales de Salud (NIH) anunciaron hoy el desarrollo de la plataforma de vacunas universales de próxima generación, Generation Gold Standard, utilizando una plataforma de beta-propioctona (BPL) activada por todovirus. Esta iniciativa representa un cambio decisivo hacia la transparencia, la eficacia y la preparación integral, financiando el desarrollo interno de vacunas universales contra la gripe y el coronavirus de los NIH, incluidos los candidatos BPL-1357 y BPL-24910. Estas vacunas tienen como objetivo proporcionar una protección de amplio espectro contra múltiples cepas de virus propensos a pandemias como la gripe aviar H5N1 y los coronavirus como SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV-1, y MERS-CoV. Nuestro compromiso es claro: toda innovación en el desarrollo de vacunas debe basarse en la ciencia y la transparencia del patrón oro, y sometida a los más altos estándares de pruebas de seguridad y eficacia, dijo el secretario del HHS, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. https://www.hhs.gov/press-room/hhs-nih-announces-generation-gold-standard.html Noticia de 11 de abril de 2025. La FDA aprueba vacuna de ARN mensajero contra la "gripe aviar". La FDA concedió la designación de vía rápida a una vacuna candidata de ARNm autoamplificante (ARCT-2304) para inmunización activa con el fin de proteger contra el subtipo H5N1 de la gripe A, también conocida como gripe aviar. La designación responde a la necesidad no cubierta de prevención del subtipo H5N1, que sigue siendo un riesgo sanitario mundial, y en noviembre de 2024 se inició un ensayo de fase 1 (NCT06602531) de la vacuna. https://www.drugtopics.com/view/fda-grants-fast-track-designation-for-potential-bird-flu-vaccine Robert Kennedy Jr invirtió en varias empresas de terapias genéticas tales como CRISPR Therapeutics y Dragonfly por un lado, mientras advertía de los riesgos esas mismas terapias a través de su Fundación Children's Health Defens por el otro. Dejo de participar en dichas empresas por los conflictos políticos que suponía su cargo sanitario en la Administración Trump no por conflictos éticos por su discurso contradictorio en Children's Health Defense. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/rfk-jr-will-divest-interests-crispr-tx-dragonfly-if-hhs-role-confirmed-letter Robert Kennedy es un calentólogo que dio un discurso durante el concierto de la misma temática catastrofista llamado Live Earth que organizó David Rothschild y Al Gore entre otros. https://youtube.com/watch?v=KG5zckBejK0&t=26s Robert F. Kennedy Jr. elogió recientemente la Operación Warp Speed, calificándola de "logro extraordinario" y "demostración de liderazgo" del expresidente Donald Trump. Esta declaración supone un cambio notable para Kennedy, que anteriormente había criticado la iniciativa. Sus comentarios se realizaron durante una audiencia en el Senado, destacando las complejidades de la lealtad política y la evolución de las narrativas que rodean el despliegue de la vacuna COVID-19 de la administración Trump. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xxOhOAXfjZw Robert F. Kennedy Jr: Los negacionistas del cambio climático deben ser castigados por ley Septiembre de 2014 https://www.al.com/news/2014/09/robert_f_kennedy_jr_climate-ch.html Robert Kennedy Jr presidió Waterkeeper, grupo ambientalista que acabó fusionándose con RiverKepper de la que también fue abogado. Ambas organizaciones fueron pioneras en reclamar la "restauración" de los ríos, un eufemismo que en realidad significa la destrucción de presas y otras infraestructuras hidráulicas y energéticas. Modelo que se ha replicado en todo el mundo golpeando especialmente a España. https://es.waterkeeper.org/revistas/volumen-14-n%C3%BAmero-2/deja-que-nuestros-r%C3%ADos-corran-libres/ Robert Kennedy Jr fue miembro y directivo del grupo ambientalista Riverkeeper.

Kennedy Jr. retirará sus inversiones en dos biotecnológicas si es confirmado para dirigir el Departamento de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS). Como secretario de Sanidad, RFK Jr. dijo que desinvertiría en varias empresas -incluidas CRISPR Therapeutics y Dragonfly Therapeutics- en un plazo de 90 días, según una carta de información presentada el 21 de enero ante la Oficina de Ética Gubernamental de Estados Unidos.

“History is written by the winners.” This aphorism is catchy and it makes an important point that a lot of what we know about history was written with an agenda, not for the purposes of informing us. Unfortunately, it isn’t true. There are many times that the so-called “losers” wrote the histories remembered today. After the American Civil War, Southern historians like Edward Pollard crafted "Lost Cause" narratives, romanticizing the Confederacy despite their defeat. Similarly, Chinese and Persian accounts of the Mongol invasions, such as those by Zhao Hong and Ata-Malik Juvayni, detailed Mongol brutality and cultural impacts from the perspective of the subjugated, challenging the victors' dominance. But this statement still gets to a fundament question: What if the history you learned was deliberately shaped by people with their own agendas? This question drives today’s guest, Richard Cohen, in his book “Making History: The Storytellers Who Shaped The Past.” We explore how historians and storytellers, from ancient Greece to the modern era, shape our understanding of history through their biases and agendas, featuring figures like Herodotus, who blended fact and fable, Edward Gibbon, whose Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire reflected his personal perspective, and William Randolph Hearst, whose yellow journalism distorted historical narratives. No history is truly objective, as personal, cultural, and political influences inevitably color the accounts of chroniclers like Thucydides, Tacitus, Voltaire, but we can still construct an understanding of the past that brings us closer to the truth.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
What do a 19th-century newspaper tycoon, a 1970s bank-robbing heiress, and your local Dallas headlines have in common?In this riveting episode of The Ben and Skin Show, hosts Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray peel back the curtain on the surprising sale of the Dallas Morning News to Hearst Media—and the tangled web of media empires, family dynasties, and sensational headlines that got us here.The crew dives into the recent acquisition of the Dallas Morning News by Hearst Media, unpacking what it means for local journalism and why it's more than just a business deal.Skin takes us on a wild ride through American media history—from the Stockholm-syndrome-sparking kidnapping of Patty Hearst to the yellow journalism battles between William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer.With the Morning News selling for a fraction of its former value, the crew reflects on the decline of print and the rise of digital dominance.

What a CreepSeason 29, Episode 4William Randolph HearstWilliam Randolph Hearst was a newspaper publisher, media mogul, and politician. He all but created yellow journalism (also known as tabloid journalism), focusing on sensationalism over facts to sell more newspapers. He made the blueprint for sensationalized, politicized, and profit-driven media. He owned 28 major newspapers, 18 magazines, radio stations, and film companies. Hearst was one of the first media moguls to become a public figure. Now we have Elon Musk, Rupert Murdoch, and others who are part of the news and control it. In other words, we probably wouldn't have Fox News without Hearst. Gee, thanks, you creep.

From Emperor Shen Nung to Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" campaign, Michael Regilio unpacks 5,000 years of cannabis history on this Skeptical Sunday!Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we're joined by skeptic, comedian, and podcaster Michael Regilio!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1142On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:The modern war on cannabis has deeply racist roots, beginning with targeted efforts against Mexican immigrants in the early 20th century. Officials like Harry Anslinger, the first commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, pushed explicitly racist propaganda against cannabis users, helping transform what was once widely accepted medicine into a demonized drug.Cannabis prohibition was also driven by powerful business interests. Companies like DuPont (developing petroleum-based products like nylon and cellophane) saw hemp as a competitive threat, while William Randolph Hearst wanted to protect his paper mill investments. These business moguls leveraged political connections to criminalize cannabis despite scientific evidence of its relative safety.The Nixon administration weaponized cannabis laws against political opponents. Nixon's domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman later admitted: "We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin ... we could disrupt those communities. ... Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."Cannabis interacts with our bodies through the endocannabinoid system, a biological network that helps regulate mood, energy, balance, and appetite. Our bodies naturally produce cannabinoids, but plant-derived versions like THC are approximately a thousand times more powerful. Importantly, cannabis use during pregnancy or adolescence can be harmful to developing brains, with studies linking early use to depression, anxiety, and even psychosis.The good news? If you're over 25, moderate cannabis use appears relatively safe (unless you're predisposed to mental health issues). Today, cannabis legalization is creating positive social impacts through tax revenue funding education, environmental cleanup, and drug prevention programs, while simultaneously reducing spending on enforcement and incarceration — turning a historically problematic policy into community benefits.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

fWotD Episode 2880: Gertie the Dinosaur Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Monday, 24 March 2025 is Gertie the Dinosaur.Gertie the Dinosaur is a 1914 animated short film by American cartoonist and animator Winsor McCay. It is the first animated film to feature a dinosaur. McCay initially presented the film before live audiences as an interactive part of his vaudeville act; the frisky, childlike Gertie performed tricks at her master's command. McCay's employer William Randolph Hearst curtailed his vaudeville activities, prompting McCay to add a live-action introductory sequence to the film for its theatrical release, which was renamed Winsor McCay, the Famous Cartoonist, and Gertie. McCay abandoned a sequel, Gertie on Tour (c. 1921), after producing about a minute of footage.Although Gertie is popularly thought to be the earliest animated film, McCay had previously made Little Nemo (1911) and How a Mosquito Operates (1912). The American J. Stuart Blackton and the French Émile Cohl had experimented with animation even earlier. Gertie being a character with an appealing personality distinguished McCay's film from these earlier "trick films". Gertie was the first film to employ several animation techniques, like keyframes, registration marks, tracing paper, the Mutoscope action viewer, and animation loops. It influenced the next generation of animators, including the Fleischer brothers, Otto Messmer, Paul Terry, Walter Lantz, and Walt Disney. John Randolph Bray unsuccessfully tried to patent many of McCay's animation techniques and is said to have been behind a plagiarized version of Gertie that appeared a year or two after the original. Gertie is the best preserved of McCay's films—some of which have been lost or survive only in fragments—and has been preserved in the U. S. Library of Congress' National Film Registry as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" since 1991.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:47 UTC on Monday, 24 March 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Gertie the Dinosaur on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Olivia.
EARLIER POTUS CONFRONTING THE COURTS: 8/8: Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal by David Pietrusza (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Roosevelt-Sweeps-Nation-Landslide-Triumph/dp/1635767776 Award-winning historian David Pietrusza boldly steers clear of the pat narrative regarding Franklin Roosevelt's unprecedented 1936 re-election landslide, weaving an enormously more intricate, ever more surprising tale of a polarized nation; of America's most complex, calculating, and politically successful president, Franklin D. Roosevelt, at the very top of his Machiavellian game; and the unlocking of the puzzle of how our society, our politics, and our parties fitfully reinvented themselves. With in-depth examinations of rabble-rousing Democratic US Senator Huey Long and his assassination before he was able to challenge FDR in '36; powerful, but widely hated, newspaper baron William Randolph Hearst, who blasted FDR's “Raw Deal”; wildly popular, radical radio commentator Father Coughlin; the steamrolled passage of Social Security and backlash against it; the era's racism and anti-Semitism; American Socialism and Communism; and a Supreme Court seemingly bent on dismantling the New Deal altogether, Roosevelt Sweeps Nation is a vivid portrait of a dynamic Depression-Era America. 1937 SCOTUS

Elon Musk is different than prior American business tycoons. Arguably, he is more powerful. More poignantly, as my guest argues, he is less dedicated to democracy, and that makes him frighteningly more dangerous. In this interview, I discuss the following with my guest scholar: ►Who was Andrew Carnegie? ►How was he similar to Musk? ►How was Carnegie - once the richest man in the world - different than Musk? ►What was Carnegie's political relationship with Washington and his outlook for America? ►Who was William Randolph Hearst? ►How was his promotional reach bigger than Musk's?►Was Hearst a Nazi? ►How was Hearst's relationship with politics and Washington different than Musk's? ►How did Hearst finally get into trouble with the people? ►Who was Joseph P. Kennedy? ►How did he make his money? In what aspects was he similar to Musk? ►Was Kennedy a Nazi sympathizer? ►How was Kennedy's relationship with FDR different than Musk's relationship with Pres. Trump?

(A Thanksgiving Ghost Story) *** On November 19, 1924, Hollywood movie producer Thomas Ince died after celebrating his 42nd birthday aboard a yacht belonging to infamous newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst, but to this day, the exact circumstances of his death remain a mystery. Could this be why his ghost still wanders the movie studio that he founded? *** On the night of November 20, 1901, a young North Carolina woman named Nell Cropsey vanished from her family's home in Elizabeth City. After a frantic search that lasted more than a month, Nell's body was discovered floating in a nearby river. She had been brutally murdered – but by who? *** On November 23, 1910, American-born homeopathic physician and salesman Hawley Harvey Crippen (usually known simply as Dr. Crippen in crime annals) was hanged at Pentonville Prison in London for the murder of his wife, Cora. But was he really a murderer? *** While the holidays are usually a time of cheer and happiness, the people of Chicago learned of a Christmas-related tragedy on November 22, 1912 when the famed "Christmas Tree Ship" went down in a storm on Lake Michigan. The tragedy changed the face of the holidays for the people of Chicago in a very unexpected way. ***Plus the original short horror story “Black Friday” by horror master, Jason R.

Though its author remained otherwise undistinguished, today's poem–with all its ecstasy, agony, and irony–has become almost as essential to the American experience as baseball itself. Happy reading!Ernest Lawrence Thayer was born on August 14, 1863, in Lawrence, Massachusetts. He graduated with a BA in philosophy from Harvard University in 1885, where he was a member of the Hasty Pudding Club and edited the Harvard Lampoon. At Harvard, Thayer met William Randolph Hearst, who would later run the San Francisco Examiner and hire Thayer to write a humorous column for the newspaper. On June 3, 1883, Thayer published what would become his most famous work, the poem "Casey at the Bat," under the pen name Phin. The poem gained popularity after the performer William DeWolf Hopper incorporated a recitation of it into his theatrical and radio performances.Thayer moved to Santa Barbara, California, in 1912. He died in Santa Barbara on August 21, 1940.-bio via Academy of American Poets Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, several major Americans were the battleground for a conflict between two great powers. These powers were not armies or nations; rather, they were newspaper conglomerates headed by two of the most powerful figures in the history of American media. The competition between them was furious, and it was fought not just on the pages of their newspapers but sometimes on the streets.
