Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has suspended his campaign and endorsed Donald Trump. It’s been an event for a long time coming. Mr. Kennedy was never going to win the presidency, but he did have some strong support when Joe Biden was the 2024 nominee. It was significant enough to impact the president’s standings in some key swing states.

With Biden gone, Mr. Kennedy was siphoning more votes away from Trump. While the two men don’t have much in common regarding their agenda, Mr. Kennedy said that defending free speech, the war in Ukraine, and the war on our children drove him to quit the 2024 race and get behind Mr. Trump.
RFK Jr. suspends his campaign, throws his support behind Trump:

Yet, Kennedy didn’t leave this race quietly; he took the Democratic Party to the woodshed, scorching the party for abandoning fundamental principles of freedom, shifts that forced him to leave the party. He also directed his fire toward the media for no longer being “guardians of the First Amendment,” which was when CNN decided to cut their feed, proving Kennedy’s point:

🚨CNN cut away from RFK Jr’s speech as he was explaining how the DNC rigged the primary, replaced their candidate with one who didn’t receive a single vote, and how the media covered up for it and censored him. pic.twitter.com/sQfGcmWKWT

His campaign endured censorship by the political establishment, and we got video confirmation today.
RFK Jr. is 100% correct. Our government is immoral. It is corrupt. It is authoritarian and tyrannical. It hates the people. It hates the rule of law. And if our nation is going to survive, the regime running this country has to be defeated and destroyed.
