Good morning. I have a few things for you today…starting with brain worms.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said in a deposition that a doctor believed that an abnormality seen on his brain scans in 2010 “was caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died.” https://t.co/ekXunA3Enf pic.twitter.com/DRYzKTJO9p

Say what?

Yeah…from the link:

In 2010, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was experiencing memory loss and mental fogginess so severe that a friend grew concerned he might have a brain tumor. Mr. Kennedy said he consulted several of the country’s top neurologists, many of whom had either treated or spoken to his uncle, Senator Edward M. Kennedy, before his death the previous year of brain cancer.

Several doctors noticed a dark spot on the younger Mr. Kennedy’s brain scans and concluded that he had a tumor, he said in a 2012 deposition reviewed by The New York Times. Mr. Kennedy was immediately scheduled for a procedure at Duke University Medical Center by the same surgeon who had operated on his uncle, he said.

While packing for the trip, he said, he received a call from a doctor at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital who had a different opinion: Mr. Kennedy, he believed, had a dead parasite in his head.

The doctor believed that the abnormality seen on his scans “was caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died,” Mr. Kennedy said in the deposition.

Now. Just keep that in mind while you watch this interview that Ari Melber did with RFK Jr., and I must note, this interview was taped before the news about the brain worm came out.

Take the time to watch this video…it is something to see from a psychological standpoint. I would love to hear what Boston Boomer thinks about it.

And btw, this is an actual conversation RFK Jr. had on Xitter:

Hold the fuck on… RFK Jr. said a “worm got into his brain, ate a part of it and then died” and as a result, he now has “cognitive issues”?

And this guy wants to be president?
What the fuck is even happening?

RFK Jr's brain is so toxic, a worm crawled in there, ate a piece of it, and died.

Kristi Noem: I cannot believe i was stupid enough to tell people i murdered a puppy. What an unforced error.

RFK Jr: Hold my dead brain worm.

We’ve reached the literal brain worms part of 2024. https://t.co/fal5MxFKe5

Now, just remember why RFK Jr. said he had this brain worm:

The reason we know that RFK Jr. had a brainworm is that he said explained it during his divorce proceedings to make the case that his earning potential had been reduced by brain damage.

Twelve years later, he wants to be president. https://t.co/yYp7j01lI7 pic.twitter.com/Y3gQnGOiUO
