Staff Reports
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the independent presidential candidate, has been the victim of numerous security incidents recently, and it’s no secret why. Unlike the other candidates, Kennedy has not been granted Secret Service protection, and it seems like every whacko in the country has taken notice.
Just over a month ago, an armed man pretending to be a U.S. Marshal slipped into one of Kennedy’s campaign events. It happened in Los Angeles, not far from where Kennedy’s own father was assassinated. You’d think that would be enough to convince the Biden administration to offer some protection, but nope, they refused.
But the incidents didn’t stop there. Another person with mental health problems managed to make it to the second floor of Kennedy’s Los Angeles residence before finally being caught. And just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse, a deranged stalker climbed the fence at Kennedy’s home not once, but twice. He was arrested, released, and then promptly arrested again after returning to the residence. What a persistence!
DHS Secretary Mayorkas has twice refused to grant Secret Service protection for our campaign. For full transparency, here are all the details, including the 3rd formal submission letter to Sec. Mayorkashttps://t.co/bHU96NoLqc

Kennedy’s security team, Gavin de Becker & Associates, had even reached out to the Secret Service about this obsessed individual, but still, no protection was granted. Can you believe it? It seems like every administration for the past 55 years has offered early protection to candidates, except for the Biden administration. They’re the only ones who don’t seem to care about Kennedy’s safety.
It’s not just Kennedy who’s at risk here. His family and even law enforcement could be in danger because of this continued failure to provide Secret Service protection. Kennedy has done everything he can to protect himself and his loved ones, but he can’t match the resources and expertise of the Secret Service. It’s truly mind-boggling that Biden would deny this protection, but hey, maybe he’s just feeling a little spiteful towards his competitor. Who knows? Either way, it’s unconscionable.
