In a stunning revelation, Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been caught funneling campaign funds to his daughter-in-law, who happens to be a former CIA officer. Records show that Kennedy Jr. paid Amaryllis Kennedy a whopping $21,262 in June for unspecified “administrative” services. This comes as a surprise, given Kennedy Jr.’s vocal criticism of the intelligence community, including the CIA.
It seems hypocritical for Kennedy Jr. to bash the CIA while simultaneously paying his daughter-in-law, who previously worked for the agency, a substantial amount of money. But perhaps it’s all part of his grand plan to keep the CIA from assassinating him if he were to become president. Kennedy Jr. has even gone as far as to suggest that the CIA was involved in the murder of his uncle, President John F. Kennedy.
While Kennedy Jr.’s daughter-in-law may have an impressive background as a former CIA officer, it raises questions about his campaign’s priorities. Shouldn’t campaign funds be going toward more pressing matters, like policy proposals or engaging with voters? It seems like Kennedy Jr. is more interested in protecting himself from a potential CIA hit job than in actually running a serious campaign.
This latest revelation adds to the growing list of reasons why Kennedy Jr.’s candidacy should be taken with a grain of salt. His poll numbers are already trailing far behind President Joe Biden’s, and it’s clear that his conspiracy theories and criticism of the intelligence community aren’t resonating with voters. It’s time for Kennedy Jr. to rethink his campaign strategy and focus on more substantive issues.
As the 2024 presidential race heats up, it’s important for voters to scrutinize the candidates’ actions and not just listen to their empty promises. Kennedy Jr.’s questionable use of campaign funds should give voters pause and make them question whether he is truly fit for the highest office in the land. It remains to be seen whether he can bounce back from this latest scandal, but his chances are certainly looking bleak.
