Anti-aging tycoon Bryan Johnson has weighed 2024 WH bid, seen with RFK Jr: report
Tech tycoon Bryan Johnson has considered running in the 2024 presidential election — despite major blowback he has gotten online over his health bizarre regimen — and has recently been hanging out with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., according to a report.
In a Friday story about the 46-year-old venture capitalist, in passing as it detailed his quest to defy the aging process with techniques that include counting his nighttime erections, swapping blood with his son and eating dinner at 11 a.m.
As recently as Tuesday, Johnson that he would be attending “the first ever congressional hearing on longevity” on Jan. 25, 2024.
“We need more nighttime erections in Washington D.C. Too much stress, sleep deprivation and bad habits have made us flaccid. … I am ready to present my night time erection results if called upon,” he tweeted.
Meanwhile, Johnson lately has been seen palling around with Kennedy, Vanity Fair noted, a Democrat who ditched the party in October to run for president as an independent.
Johnson recently shared in an Instagram story that he “worked out, ate nutty pudding and slammed some extra virgin olive oil” with the 69-year-old presidential candidate, who’s a fitness junkie himself.
The so-called “nutty pudding” is the dessert Johnson claims to eat every single day — a concoction of macadamia nuts, walnuts, flax seed, pomegranate juice and berries — although it doesn’t include extra virgin olive oil, of which he consumes three tablespoons daily.
Johnson, however, doesn’t appear to share Kennedy’s anti-vaccine views, in 2021 that he “received the Moderna vaccine” in a post that said he invested in Ginkgo Bioworks, the biotech company that of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine.
The investment was made through Johnson’s investment venture, the he said in the LinkedIn post, which he launched in 2014 with a personal $100 million investment — part of the fortune he made when his payment processing company Braintree Payment Solutions to eBay for $800 million the year prior.
Johnson also told that he was inspired by a book called “A Good Man” by politician Mark Shriver, where he details his father’s life, including his deep ties to John F. Kennedy’s administration, where he served as the first director of the Peace Corps after the former president established the agency.
Johnson did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
Reps for Kennedy’s campaign also didn’t immediately comment.
Kennedy Jr. might be less enthused to partake in the part of Johnson’s regimen that has him swallowing a staggering 111 pills a day — all supplements he swears by in order to thwart aging.
Earlier this year, that “as President, I will restore America as the global example of health & well-being. Not through pills or syringes, but through character and self-discipline. And I will continue to walk the walk and lead by example.”
Around the same time, a shirtless Kennedy Jr. boasted about getting in shape for presidential debates with a campaign video of himself pumping iron at the “mecca of bodybuilding,” Gold’s Gym Venice in California, which Arnold Schwarzenegger was known to frequent during his Mr. Olympia days.
Johnson, meanwhile, has been known to resort to needles to help him reverse his biological age.
In May, he tapped his then-17-year-old son Talmage and his elderly father, Richard, for a tri-generational blood-swapping treatment where the three men all had one liter of blood drained.
Talmage’s plasma was fed into Johnson’s veins and Jonson’s plasma was fed into Richard’s veins.
Though “no benefits” were detected in his swap with his child, Johnson claimed that gifting his 70-year-old dad a liter of his “super blood” reversed his aging process by 25 years.
