Oh, what a shock. The DNC filed a complaint over RFK Jr.’s super PAC’s efforts to put him on state ballots.
According to The New York Times, “In a federal election complaint filed on Friday, the Democratic National Committee accused Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and a super PAC backing his independent presidential bid of illegally coordinating on a $15 million petition drive intended to qualify him for the ballot in several states that could be crucial to President Biden’s re-election prospects.”
The complaint alleges that the super PAC’s signature-gathering efforts for Kennedy in key states amounted to an illegal contribution.
I’m surprised there aren’t 91 charges against RFK by now. Biden wouldn’t even provide Robert Kennedy with Secret Service protection despite his family history and at least one legitimate death threat last year.
On Friday, the Democratic National Committee filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission.
NBC reports: “The Kennedy-aligned super PAC American Values 2024 announced late last year that it would be investing eight figures to assist the signature-gathering efforts of Kennedy’s campaign. Independent candidates need to gather petition signatures to make the general election ballot in many states instead of qualifying by winning a party primary.
“Kennedy has only qualified for the ballot in Utah so far, but American Values 2024 started hiring signature-gathering vendors in key battleground states at the start of 2024. And just last week, it announced it would fund ballot access efforts for Kennedy in five additional states,” NBC reports.
According to the DNC complaint, that amounts to an illegal contribution from American Values 2024 to Kennedy’s campaign “in violation of federal law.”
“This is an effort to subvert our election laws and prop up a stalking horse in R.F.K. Jr.,” Lis Smith, a senior adviser to the D.N.C., said during a Zoom call with reporters.
American Values 2024 co-chair Tony Lyons said, “The DNC wants to deny millions of people their basic constitutional voting rights in a relentless onslaught against democracy.
The DNC is a threat to democracy. They’re eliminating the competition.

It’s right there in the DNC playbook. Obama got to be Illinois State Senator by getting his opponent disqualified and then got to be a US Senator from Illionois by getting his opponent disqualified. Since the US Presidency is the most powerful job in the world, I not surprised that the DNC will do everything possible to stay in power.
They manipulated the Rs by putting a candidate we could not vote for as the nominee, ie McCain. That ensured the big Zero had no competition.
same thing 4 years later, they put Romney in as placeholder that repels votes to ensure big Zeros second term.
Then they put 100 million and millions in free favorable news coverage to make Jeb the placeholder that we couldnt support, but it didnt work.
Now they are dumping big money behind Tricky Nickie but she lost to “none of the above” which shows we are on to their plans, cant buy an election or Jeb and Nicky would have been automatic picks.
DNC are a terrorist organization
time to clean up the Republican party and make it a true opposition party.
Dump Ronna!
rfk……SUE BIGLY, AND FIND STUFF ON THEM….You can bet your tookas there is alot on them….THEN GO AFTER THEIR LAWYERS….ALL OF EM
That’s only fair, since that’s what the Dems are doing to everyone else!
Reminds me of the writing that said of the communists tyrants, “when they came after xyz, I did nothing…again and again…until they came after me.”
Democrats, YOUR PARTY is NOT in power. An illegal coup…the Deep State enemies of your country, has hijacked your party, ousted your liberal leaders, and are coming after you. Everything has changed, except the name. If you want your party back, you need to take an unexpected deviation from the norm…vote for Trump just this once…so he can dismantle your party AND ours and rid the nation of its Deep State enemies and power elite tyrants.
Golly, gee willikers, Sparky! The Socialist Party wants the Socialist judges to arrest the Socialist candidates’ competition in elections. Where have I see that tactic used before? Oh, that’s right, now I remember! I see it in every socialist country.
