The Hill reports: In what is shaping up to be a three-person contest between President Joe Biden, former President Donald Trump, and independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the question becomes: Which candidate can garner 34 percent of the popular vote or higher? While many “experts” still dismiss the possibility of an independent or third-party candidate winning the election, there seems to be a bit more hand-wringing and whistling past the graveyard amongst both Democratic and Republican operatives. Most especially as there is now a possibility that Kennedy may run on the Libertarian Party ticket. Kennedy’s words and warnings are now resonating with young voters here in the U.S. So much so that he now leads both Biden and Trump with that demographic. All of that hints at a very interesting political and electoral possibility. What if Kennedy — who “has no chance” and is only going to serve as a “spoiler” — not only runs on the Libertarian Party ticket and gets on key swing state ballots but continues to peel off more and more young and independent voters with a smattering of dissatisfied Democrats and Republicans? Some polls have already shown Kennedy at about 21 percent of the popular vote. With just over nine months to go before the election, what if he grows his support at just over 1 percent per month? Impossible? Well, in a nation where 70 percent of the voters have said they prefer the Democratic and Republican nominees weren’t named Biden and Trump, the “impossible” might be a much lower hurdle to clear.

Fox News reports: Tech billionaire Elon Musk endorsed a speech by 2024 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Sunday that criticized baby boomers' voting habits and praised podcast host Joe Rogan. In a video clip that has accumulated more than 475,000 views on X, Kennedy admitted that he is polling poorly among those born between 1946 and 1964 and attributed their lack of support to how the boomer generation consumes media. "They have a disability, which is they only get their news from ABC, NBC, CNN, MSNBC and The New York Times," Kennedy said in the speech. "And if I were living in that information ecosystem, I would have a low opinion of myself as well." Read the full article here.

Newsweek reports: On December 18, 2023, Nippon Steel announced that they had reached an agreement with U.S. Steel management to acquire the 122-year-old steel maker and iconic symbol of American industrial strength for $55 a share or $14.9B. The United Steelworkers of America, who are affected most by this deal, were denied a seat at the table during negotiations with Nippon and are adamantly opposed to the sale. Because Nippon is a foreign company and the steel industry has importance for national security, the deal requires approval of the CFIUS (Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States) chaired by Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. The sale has been met with bipartisan opposition. Those opposed include Republican Senators J.D. Vance, Marco Rubio, and Josh Hawley, as well as Democratic Senators Sherrod Brown, John Fetterman, and Joe Manchin. Due to pressure exerted by the Steelworkers, the White House has said "the deal merits serious scrutiny." I am opposed to the sale for a number of reasons. For starters, the board and management of U.S. Steel essentially auctioned off the company to the highest bidder for the sole purpose of aggrandizing shareholders equity at the expense of the Steelworkers. Second, the deal was struck behind closed doors without the participation of the United Steelworkers of America. This is a direct violation of the U.S. Steel-USW Basic Labor Agreement, which allows the union itself to bid for the company or assign their right to bid to another bidder. Finally, the Steelworkers union has expressed grave concern over the sale of a storied Industrial asset vital to national security. This should concern all Americans as well.

The Hill reports: Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. on Thursday backed Texas in its ongoing battle with the federal government over border authority, criticizing the Biden administration for its handling of the U.S. southern border. “Texas is right.

I will secure the border and destroy the business model of the drug cartels. A country without borders is not a country at all.” Read the full article here.

Kennedy gathered the requisite 3,000 signatures to be an official contender in the general election in the Granite State, a significant potential battleground state that comes amid his months-long push to get on as many states as possible ahead of their deadlines. “Democracy is much more than voting. I’m inspired by how enthusiastic people are to collect signatures, create new political parties, and rally for real change,” Kennedy said in a statement Tuesday evening during the end of the New Hampshire primary. “This kind of energy is what will get us onto the ballot in every state and fuel our voter registration and GOTV operation as we head toward Election Day,” he said.

The Hill reports: Every election cycle, we hear Democrats and Republicans complaining about “disenfranchised voters.” We have been told incessantly for years and decades that “every voter should be heard.” That is correct. Except, it seems, when those votes may benefit a populist independent candidate, who, counterintuitively, is gaining in popularity while being ignored or smeared by much of the mainstream media, as well as the two major political parties. That candidate being Robert F. Kennedy Jr. It is fair to say that millions of Americans now support Kennedy for president. Just on X — formerly Twitter — he has 2.6 million followers and growing. Logic and basic math tell us his support would be much higher than those willing to take the time to sign up for X. Do those voters — from every political ideology, color, faith and sexual orientation — have the right to be heard? Should they be allowed to vote for the candidate of their choice?
