RFK Jr Snubbed By Siblings Who Didn’t Invite Him to Gala for Father’s Human Rights Foundation

How much do Robert Kennedy Jr’s siblings loathe him?

On Wednesday they held their annual fundraising dinner aka the Ripple of Hope Gala for the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Foundation. Junior was not invited.

Even though their mother died only recently, the Kennedys did not welcome the conspiracy theorist and Trump endorser to the event. Maybe they heard he’s planning to bring back polio and other illnesses by getting rid of vaccines.

Kerry Kennedy was there, along with sisters Kathleen Kennedy Townsend and Rory Kennedy as well as nephew Joseph Kennedy III. Alec Baldwin and Lin Manuel Miranda were among the celebrity guests. Performers included Aloe Blacc and Miranda’s “Freestyle Love Supreme.”

The Kennedys dislike RFK Jr so much that on November 22nd they posted a notice on their Twitter account disavowing him. It read “We are not affiliated with Robert Kennedy Jr.”

Before Junior lost his mind he was included in the Human Rights campaign. I was there one year when he was having a clandestine affair with a celebrity who performed in the evening’s readings. Three years later, his wife, Mary Richardson Kennedy, committed suicide when she discovered Kennedy’s sex diaries detailing his dalliances.
