Whatever you think of Jan. 6,” Kennedy said of the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection on Capitol Hill and inside the white-domed building in Washington, D.C., “there’s a lot of America who think the whole thing is rigged.”
Kennedy, whose late father Robert F. Kennedy campaigned for president in 1968 on goals of ending the Vietnam War and alleviating poverty for all races, spoke similarly.

RFK Junior is the best democrat we have when it comes to 2024. I might not even agree with every one of his policy positions but he is the best we have. Kennedy is out there talking about real ways to help the middle class. When is Joe Biden and Kamala Harris going to talk about the astronomical price of homes in this country. ?
