New reporting today from @washingtonpost exposes @RobertKennedyJr as a fraud on one of his key selling points to voters: his work as a plaintiffs lawyer for victims of corporate pollution.

🧵 Residents of a WV community affected by mountaintop removal blasted him for using them as props in a documentary:

“He took advantage of some of the poorest people in our country,” Gunnoe said recently. “He left a very bad taste in the mouths of many Appalachians.”

The @NewYorker profile of @RobertKennedyJr lays out a damning case against him- that he is a reckless, narcissistic, nepo baby who is seriously mentally unwell.

He's someone who has never cared about the consequences of his actions, including in this race...

🧵 His obsession with fame & self-promotion, along with his decision to hire a convicted bird smuggler, blew up an environmental organization that he'd joined in the 1980's

.@MalloryMcMorrow's full 🔥 speech from #AnswerTheCall2024 last night.

Some highlights in 🧵:

- "This is not the time for us to start a book club...This is the time for us to act every single day for the next 100 days." - "I'm gonna level some uncomfortable truths. A lot of people, when they get into this work, they want to do the easy thing. I'm reporting in [from Michigan]- nobody here is going to be convinced if they get a postcard in the mail from a stranger in California."

Absolutely BRUTAL Politico story for @RobertKennedyJr and his campaign. 🧵below:

- "RFK Jr. is nowhere to be seen.Instead of campaigning, the independent challenger has canceled multiple campaign events and discussed dropping out of the race and backing Trump." - "Instead of moving up in the polls, where he’s been stagnant for months, Kennedy has called for himself to be picked as the Democratic nominee to replace Biden."

.@joehagansays' story on @robertkennedyjr is the most insane thing you will read all day

A thread below of the wildest revelations

vanityfair.com/news/story/rob… "Last year Robert Kennedy Jr. texted a photograph to a friend. In the photo RFK Jr. was posing, alongside an unidentified woman, with the barbecued remains of what appears to be a dog."

There will be a lot of “takes” on tonight’s election in NY-03 and *what it means.* November is a long way away, so shelve those hot takes. Instead learn some lessons from what Tom Suozzi & Dems did here. @Tom_Suozzi went into the race w/his own brand. He’d been a mayor, county exec, & Congressman. That blunted R attacks against him as an aspiring Squad member. He did well w/Dems, held own w/indies, attracted meaningful # of GOP votes.
