RFK Jr. Campaign Racks Up Security Debt While Denied Secret Service
- RFK Jr.'s presidential campaign has racked up $1.4M in debt to a private security firm owned by his friend, while Biden denies Secret Service protection requests
- The security firm's owner has donated millions to a pro-Kennedy super PAC, accounting for most of its $4.1M raised in February
- Despite raising nearly $28M, Kennedy's campaign spent heavily and had $5M cash on hand at the end of February
- Kennedy has assailed Biden for rejecting at least 3 requests for Secret Service protection while campaigning
- In October, a trespasser at Kennedy's home was listed in a Secret Service risk assessment related to his June request for protection that was still denied
