Tucker Carlson today published an interview with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. covering the topics of Russia’s war in Ukraine, the threat of bioweapons, the assassination of his uncle President John F. Kennedy, securing the US border with Mexico while addressing the migrant humanitarian crisis, and the economic harms of inflation and how it results in redistribution of wealth from the poor and middle class to the politically and financially elite.
During the interview, Kennedy mentions my name in reference to my August 7 article “Setting the Record Straight on the Denial of Secret Service Protection to RFK Jr.”
In the first part of the interview, Kennedy provides a detailed explanation of how the US provoked Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in accordance with the policy preferences of the so-called “neoconservatives” (“neocons”).
He mentions the lies that were told to justify the Iraq War and the neocon think tank The Project for a New American Century (PNAC), which I wrote about in my 2007 article titled “The Reasons for Regime Change in Iraq”.
See also my 2012 article “The Lies that Led to the Iraq War and the Persistent Myth of ‘Intelligence Failure’”.
During the discussion on bioweapons, Kennedy also mentions how, after the 9/11 attacks, powdered anthrax was mailed to two Congressmen who opposed the so-called “PATRIOT Act”. While the war propaganda attempted to tie the anthrax attacks to Iraq, the source of the anthrax was actually the US Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Disease at Fort Detrick, Maryland.
Carlson at this point expresses skepticism about what Kennedy is saying. Evidently, he was unaware of these details about that episode in history. But what Kennedy said is true. I documented it extensively in my 2006 article “Iraq’s Anthrax and the Myth of ‘Intelligence Failure’”.
I have also written a lot about the economic harms of the Federal Reserve’s inflationary monetary policies, including my book Ron Paul vs. Paul Krugman: Austrian vs. Keynesian Economics in the Financial Crisis, which was described as “a must read” by Barron’s.
My book The War on Informed Consent features a Foreword by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
Tucker Carlson’s full interview with RFK Jr is posted on Twitter (now rebranded “X”).
It is also on YouTube in three parts:
During the segment on the humanitarian crisis on the southern border of the US, Carlson and Kennedy discussed the Kennedy campaign’s 19-minute film “Midnight At The Border”:
Kennedy mentions me at about 5:45 in part one of the interview with Tucker Carlson:
By the way, you know, we’ve looked, and there’s a guy called Jeremy Hammond who’s done a really good article, a really thorough article about the past, and he was not able, and we were not able, to find a single presidential candidate who had requested [Secret Service] protection from the president and was not given protection.
He mentions me again at about 8:20:
What the Secret Service told us, and you can go and look at Jeremy Hammond’s report, which you can find on, I think if you just go on the internet and put “Jeremy Hammond” and, you know, “RFK”, “Secret Service”, but he shows that nobody, literally no other presidential candidate, I mean many, many other people are receiving it, but I’m really like an outlier.
I wasn’t sure whether my article could be found on Google, given Google’s past censorship of my work, but I was happy to see that it did appear in the third result when entering “jeremy hammond rfk jr secret service”.
