RFK Jr. Dispels Rumors He's About to Endorse Kamala — Instead He Issues a Blistering Statement

The Washington Post, of course, refused to print Kennedy’s full statement, which is a scathing indictment of Harris and the Democratic Party.

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has issued a statement dispelling rumors that he is about to cut an endorsement deal with Kamala Harris in order to get a spot in her cabinet.

The Washington Post on Wednesday circulated the rumor that Kennedy implied that he was willing to trade and endorsement for a spot in her administration.

WaPo, a lacky for the Harris-Walz campaign, framed it as if Kamala Harris “rebuffed” Kennedy.

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sought a meeting last week with Democratic nominee Kamala Harris to discuss the possibility of serving in her administration, perhaps as a Cabinet secretary, if he throws his support behind her campaign and she wins, according to Kennedy campaign officials.

Harris and her advisers have not responded with an offer to meet or shown interest in the proposal, say people familiar with the conversations.

The Kennedy outreach, made through intermediaries, follows a meeting in Milwaukee last month between Kennedy and Republican nominee Donald Trump to discuss a similar policy role and endorsement that resulted in no agreement. In those discussions, Kennedy spoke about advising Trump in a second term on health and medical issues.

But on Thursday morning, Kennedy refuted the breathless reports, and counter-attacked with a withering statement leveling Harris and the Democratic Party.
