The left-wing media blitz on Wednesday sought to sack New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers, even before he’s decided whether to become a politician.
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said earlier this week that he was considering Rodgers as a possible running mate. Rodgers has not rejected the suggestion as of Wednesday.

Yet the former Green Bay Packers legend was blindsided by a CNN report that noted Rodgers once allegedly shared conspiracy theories about the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre. The school shooting left 20 children and six faculty members dead.
According to the New York Post, Rodgers suggested to two people years ago that Sandy Hook was concocted. One of them was CNN reporter Pamela Brown.
Brown, who on Wednesday reported CNN’s story along with anchor Jake Tapper, claimed that Rodgers told her that Sandy Hook was fake during a party following the 2013 Kentucky Derby.
He allegedly did so while accusing the media of covering up “important stories,” such as the massacre at Sandy Hook actually being “a government inside job,” CNN reported.

Brown apparently sat on this news nugget about the one-time Super Bowl MVP for 11 years – until Kennedy suggested he was mulling Rodgers as a VP pick.
The Post noted that a second person, whose identity was shielded by the media, asserted that Rodgers had said back then that “Sandy Hook never happened” and that “all those children had never existed.”
“They’re all making it up. They’re all actors,” the anonymous source claimed Rodgers said.
“All of this comes 24 hours after a spokesperson for Kennedy, an Independent presidential candidate, confirmed to The Post that Rodgers, along with former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura, was being considered as a running mate,” the Post reported.
Kennedy and Rodgers, the Post added, “have shared common beliefs on a number of topics, including public health policy and the COVID-19 vaccines.”
