RFK Jr. denied Secret Service protection despite agency believing he is a ‘risk for adverse attention’

From NY Post:

Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been denied Secret Service protection despite the agency determining that he is at an elevated “risk for adverse attention,” documents show.  

Eleven pages of records obtained by Judicial Watch, a government watchdog group, show that the Biden administration’s Secret Service conducted a “protective intelligence assessment” on the longshot presidential candidate and documented several specific threats aimed at RFK Jr.  

“Kennedy’s family history, perceived controversial stance on vaccines, and his status as a challenger to President Biden for the Democratic presidential nomination elevates his risk for adverse attention,” the threat assessment reads.  

The report highlights six “behaviors of interests,” where individuals – some already known to the Secret Service – have directed threats at Kennedy Jr. – some against his life.  

An email obtained by Judicial Watch shows a Secret Service official recommending that “outward facing messaging” on the topic of protection for RFK Jr. highlight that most Secret Service protection requests are only granted when the general election is less than a year out.  

“In addition to the numbered guidelines concerning FEC filing and polling requirements, I recommend any outward facing messaging include the attached language as well,” the official, whose name is redacted, writes.
