Kennedy Jr. at Congressional Hearing<\/h2>\n<p>Washington \u2062Examiner Chief Political Correspondent\u200c Byron York believes that Republicans may have made \u200ba strategic error by inviting &#8220;crackpot&#8221; \u2064Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to testify at Thursday&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/whats-next-great-awakening-or-great-reset\/\" title=\"What\u2019s Next? Great Awakening or Great Reset?\">congressional hearing<\/a> on government censorship.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Democrats are going to make Robert F. Kennedy Jr. the focus of this hearing,\u200b and I think it&#8217;s entirely possible Republicans have really outsmarted themselves on this one,&#8221; York told Fox News.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>The Serious Issue of Government Censorship<\/h3>\n<p>The GOP-led \u200dHouse\u2063 Subcommittee on Weaponization of the Federal Government is addressing a crucial \u200bmatter, according to York.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s about the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/epoch-times-documentary-catalogues-government-corporate-collusion-in-left-wing-esg-movement\/\" title=\"Epoch Times Documentary Catalogues Government, Corporate Collusion in Left-Wing ESG Movement\">government censoring information<\/a>, violating the First Amendment, censoring information that&#8217;s available on the\u2063 internet,&#8221; he said. &#8220;There&#8217;s a very serious \u200dcourt case, Missouri\u200b v. Biden, that is going through the courts on this.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>York highlighted the significance of a recent ruling\u200c on July 4, emphasizing the gravity of the issue. However, he expressed concern \u2062that Democrats would focus on attacking Kennedy, who has a history of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/meet-the-democrat-on-a-six-figure-income-who-cant-afford-to-buy-her-kids-shoes\/\" title=\"Meet the Democrat on a Six-Figure Income Who Can\u2019t Afford To Buy Her Kids Shoes\">making questionable statements<\/a> about vaccines and\u2063 other topics.<\/p>\n<p>Comparing Kennedy to the \u200ctwo IRS \u200bwhistleblowers who testified about Hunter Biden the previous day, York described Kennedy as a &#8220;conspiracy theorist.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;They\u200d were career professionals at the IRS,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They had very serious cases. Everything they said they backed up with a lot of \u200devidence, and Democrats were reduced to suggesting that \u200cmaybe it was all just a misunderstanding or something.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>According to York, today&#8217;s hearing will be markedly different from the previous day&#8217;s proceedings.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">CLICK HERE\u200b TO READ MORE \u200dFROM THE \u200dWASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington Examiner&#8217;s Byron York warned that Republicans may have backfired by inviting &#8220;crackpot&#8221; Robert F.
