Keeping Up With The Kennedys
A Celebratory Invitation On The Eve Of a Devastating Anniversary
Tomorrow marks the 60th anniversary of Jack Kennedy’s assassination. While plenty of coverage will be dedicated to reexamining the layers of that tragedy, I’m here today to highlight a new point of optimism in a candidate born and evolved from that devastation.
Seriously. How wild are campaign days already? How perfectly enthralling is this timeline? And, my God, how serendipitous is my newsletter?
Between lazily shopping for a gown for an event at Mar-A-Lago next week, I’m drafting songs to include in the soundtrack for this other fabulous evening, determined to show you a good time with all of it — to prove, once and for all, that we can enjoy a political season without succumbing to contentious angles and divisive barriers implemented by big media.
So, in a prelude to remembering one of the greatest tragedies in American history, I’m swinging by with news of something sweet: An exclusive invite to a glamorous scene in the high desert that will undoubtedly involve a brood of Kennedys, young and old, in tuxedos circling a dance floor littered with famous faces.
I don’t know about you, but I can’t think of a better way to kick off a new year.
On January 22, RFK JR. will celebrate his 70th birthday in a remote corner of the California desert, hosted by Daphne Barak & Erbil Gunasti. This is the first mention of the event. Tomorrow, it will be scattered across various media outlets promoting same links.
If you’re interested in more information on how to attend, GO HERE.
For those of you unable, rest assured, as Social Media director of the event I will take you along for the evening and everything leading up to it, so you won’t be left wondering about ANY of it.
Currently, my campaign tales are overwhelmingly stacked (I did not anticipate the whirlwind that would engulf us so suddenly) but I’ll be back here to share it all soon enough.

“John F. Kennedy’s assassination left an indelible scar upon the American psyche. Everyone who was alive at the time can remember where they were on that day.
Of all the legacies that my uncle left for our country, there is one that has not yet been fulfilled. During his term in office, he upheld a vision of America as a nation of peace, a vision that was abandoned after his death. For the next 60 years, we maintained a military empire, squandering trillions of dollars as our economy hollowed out and our health and infrastructure decayed.
My promise to the American people is that I will put us back on the road to peace that JFK led us toward when, shortly before his death, he issued a national security order to withdraw American advisers from Vietnam. We will instead take a path back toward peace and prosperity for our country.” - RFK JR Nov. 20
“What is so embarrassing that they're afraid to show the American public 60 years later?
“Trust in government is at an all-time low.” - RFK Jr.
Trump refused to release the documents regarding the government’s involvement into JFK’s assassination as did Biden. I thought Trump was ‘Drain the Swamp, guy?’ There’s nothing more ‘swamp’ than the 3 letter agencies coordinating the assassination of a president and if they weren’t involved, no one should be threatened by releasing the information.
Is it just me or does anyone else want to refer to RFKJr as “my boyfriend”? So high school! Can’t help myself. He is a dream in every aspect of his Being. I don’t see how anyone can not see/hear him speak and not feel his sincerity and love for this country. He is salt of the earth. I feel the same way about you Jessica. Can’t help but think JFKJr. recognized that in you. I get a sense he has strong intuition. Love your writing ~ and this coverage has put me over the moon. Thank you Jessica!
