Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the son of former Attorney General Robert Francis Kennedy, sounds off on 'Special Report' as he sits in 2nd place in the 2024 Democratic sweeps.
who is the son of former New York senator and U.S. Attorney General Bobby Kennedy, and nephew of former President John Kennedy and ex-Sen. Edward Kennedy, said the party his family once embodied has changed much in recent years.
"I think a lot of Americans are feeling like they're tired of the forever-wars," he said."They're tired of this being a warfare state abroad and a surveillance state at home. And they want to get rid of the surveillance here [and] the wars abroad."Kennedy contrasted the trillions in military spending with what some of those funds could do for domestic infrastructure, employment and education.
Kennedy also said he has no personal animus against Biden, and has been friends with him for some time, as"Special Report" anchor Bret Baier cited a recent poll showing him the closest to the president with 19% support.
