Every time I've seen an ad for Kennedy (and I've seen a LOT of them), I post this comment:
Joe Kennedy III opposes Medicare for All, even though HE gets free healthcare at our expense. He opposes the legalization of pot, even though the people of his state repeatedly voted to make it legal. And he receives more money from Big Pharma than anyone else in Congress.
His run against Ed Market violates the DNC's own rules against challenging a Democratic incumbent. Nonetheless the DNC is pushing him HARD in order to punish Markey for co-sponsoring the Green New Deal. This spoiled son of privilege serves himself and the oligarchy only.

"Rep. Kennedy (D-Massachusetts) might be pharma’s favorite Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives, given that he’s received more than $57,000 from the pharmaceutical/health products industry in this current election cycle alone. According to the Center for Responsive Politics, that’s approximately four times more than pharma’s average contribution to House Democrats. Over the course of his short Congressional career, Kennedy has received more than $348,000 since 2011."
