Nicole Shanahan

But again, these are problems that Joe Biden does not have.

And real quickly, because we're running out of time, RFK this week announced his vice presidential candidate, Nicole Shanahan.

You've reported on her extensively.

How much money is she likely going to be bringing to the table with all of this?

It is not an accident that Robert F. Kennedy chose somebody who could put lots of money in.

He has a serious money issue because he needs to spend a lot to qualify on as many state ballots as possible.

How much Nicole Shanahan is actually worth is a great question.

She divorced from one of the wealthiest people in the world, but there's a prenuptial agreement.

And it runs from the crunchy left that had its base in Northern California.

And Nicole Shanahan is almost kind of the poster child of that through what is kind of the remnants of the Tea Party and MAGA.

So all of that came together in this weird coalition that for one of the first times perhaps since the turn of the century, when you had the Upton Sinclair novel regarding the slaughterhouses that prompted really the creation of both USDA and FDA.

Now you have this new coalition that is very focused in general on health-related issues.

I mean, it's the whole gamut and it runs from the crunchy left that had its base in Northern California.

You have, uh, you know, you have bodybuilders, you have biohackers, you have MAHA moms, you have health freedom people, you have libertarians, you have constitutional conservatives.

I mean, it's the whole gamut, and it runs from the crunchy left, uh, that, you know, had its base in, in, uh, Northern California, and Nicole Shanahan is almost kind of the poster child of that, through, uh, what is the kind of the remnants of the Tea Party, uh, and, uh, MAGA.

well thanks jeff i know you're right there there's not a lot of conservative christians that go there but there are a handful um we're doing a special issue of the new american magazine and one of my articles is the christians of burning man so uh there was five Christian camps, and I guess I should put that in air quotes, because not all of them were what normal people would call Christian, but really, really fascinating.

I decided to go after somebody that you know, Nicole Shanahan, kind of defected from the movement.

She was really instrumental in this for 10 years.

She was attending, of course, she was married to one of the co-founders of Google.

But it reminds me of the water company Liquid Death.

And they pull all these stunts and they actually had a cultic people come in and do these spells over the water.

They're doing it as a joke, but they actually had somebody who legitimately believes in this do these kinds of things.

And you're just sitting here and you're like, you guys are messing with things that you don't understand.
