Aaron Rodgers ‘shared deranged conspiracy theories about the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting not being real in private conversations with journalists’… claiming the children ‘never existed’ and were ‘all actors’

After Robert F. Kennedy Jr. confirmed that Aaron Rodgers was on his short list for vice presidential running mates, a report has emerged about the Jets quarterback sharing debunked conspiracy theories about the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting.

Kennedy is running as an independent in November’s presidential election, with Rodgers — and former Minnesota governor and professional wrestler Jesse Ventura — confirmed as possible vice presidential picks.

According to a bomb new CNN reportRodgers had private conversations in which he “enthusiastically” shared “crazy conspiracy theories” about the not-real Sandy Hook shooting.

Rodgers is said to have shared his debunked theories about the shooting that tragically killed 20 children and six adults with CNN journalist Pamela Brown, who co-authored the new report, during the 2013 Kentucky Derby.

CNN has another source besides Brown, granted anonymity for their story, who said several years ago that Rodgers claimed, “Sandy Hook never happened… All those kids never existed. They were all actors.’

When the source brought up grieving parents to Rodgers, they reportedly recalled the Jets quarterback saying, “They’re making it all up. They’re all actors.’

During the alleged conversation with Brown, Rodgers called the shooting “an inside government job” and the media “deliberately ignored it.”

Brown allegedly interviewed Rodgers and provided evidence that the Sandy Hook shooting was real. Rodgers responded with “several theories” that had been refuted “several times.”

DailyMail.com has contacted Rodgers’ representatives for comment but they did not immediately respond.

Kennedy will announce his running mate on March 26 in Oakland, California, with some linking Rodgers’ hometown of Chico to playing college football at Cal for reasons the city was chosen for the announcement.

After suffering a season-ending Achilles injury four games into his tenure with the Jets in September, Rodgers has remained in the news, thanks in large part to his weekly appearances on “The Pat McAfee Show.”

During his weekly television spot, Rodgers went on crazy rants that had many wondering if ESPN would pause the feed to avoid airing the four-time NFL MVP’s deranged comments.

Rodgers has been open about his disdain for the coronavirus vaccine since it became available to NFL players in 2021. To this day, Rodgers claims he has not been vaccinated against COVID-19.

Questioning the legitimacy of COVID-19 treatments and vaccines has been a calling card of conspirators since the pandemic was at its peak in 2020.

Rodgers spent his entire NFL career with the Green Bay Packers until he was traded to the Jets last year.

Former Packers quarterback DeShone Kizer said Rodgers once asked him if he thought the September 11 terrorist attacks were real. NBC Sports.

“The first thing out of Aaron Rodgers’ mouth was, ‘Do you believe in 9/11?’” Kizer said. ‘What? Do I believe in 9/11? Yes, why wouldn’t I?’

Rodgers apparently turned Kizer into a believer, sharing what other conspiracy theories the duo talked about.

“Inner Earth, moon landing, reptilian people,” Kizer said. “You’re all laughing. Do your research, I tell you. Go do your research.”

Rodgers has not immediately responded to the claims.
