there is only one candidate asking them, and it is bobby kennedy.ause] i am going to mention one more issue close to my heart. this has to do with climate. my interest in health and solving climate issues has led me to the realm of agriculture. i realize that a nation's health comes down to its soil and the people who work it. healthy soil is the foundation of healthy food, it is the foundation of a healthy ecosystem, and it is our answer to the climate crisis. [applause] it is the foundation of healthy economy. but what politician besides bobby kennedy do you ever hear talking about soil? none. we have some common ground people here. thank you for coming out. i have talked to congresspeople and senators but all i've gotten our vague promises that never amount to real change. republicans and democrats alike have fallen under the sway of big agrochemical companies and food conglomerates. they might invoke the ideal of the family farm but they have betrayed it again and again. i am entering myself -- i am not a politician until just now, but i'm enter

bobby kennedy came to east l.a., the south l.a..e brought in maxine waters, his words not just hope, but the promise of help. he said, these problems from poverty to injustice to inequality. and i was very proud to know that that campaign engendered so much excitement and psion the same time, there was another leader here in california, cesar chavez. who, against all the odds, believed he could bring justice and fairness and dignity and respect to people who did some of the hardest work that any of us know of. and it wasn't easy, and it didn't happen■ but he persevered, and we're all the better for it. i was so honored when bobby kennedy jr and cesar chavez, his grandson, decided they not only wanted to support me, but they wanted to speak out and make clear that what we need today is what caesar's grandfather knew. had to be part of the problem is of change. that is, we need a doer. we need a fighter. and we need a champion. once again to get up every day in white house and make sure that the people of our country are the ones who

schwartz: so bobby kennedy gets it into his head that the mob is using las vegas, basically, to washe the federal bureau of investigation increased jurisdiction to assist local authorities in the common battle against the rackets. ♪ schumacher: the state of nevada was constantly vigilant about doing whatever it took to keep the feds out. one of the ways they could do that is to show that they, in fact, were regulating the casinos here and doing a good job of keeping organized crime out. the state of nevada decided to create the list of excluded persons. it became nicknamed the "black book." the black book was created in 1960, and it's called the black book because, believe it or not, it was in a black binder. they could've been more creative. they made a list of people who could not set foot in a casino. schumacher: it really was a facade to say, "you know what? we're really doing something, you don't need to bother with nevada right now." anka: when the boys ran las vegas, you'd see them sitting at ringside. if that spotlight went off the performer and went into the front rows, guys

but when bobby kennedy came in, things started to evolve where the heat was too intense where we haveu found them that legalized gambling actually attracts this element of society into its mixed, it does >> so bobby kennedy gets it and it was head that the mob is using las vegas basically to wash all their money he wants to come and shut down all the casinos and kick them about. >> it is my firm belief that new laws are needed to give the federal bureau of investigation increased jurisdiction to assist local authorities in the common battle against the racquets >> the state of nevada was constantly vigilant about doing whatever it took to keep the feds out one of the ways they could do that is to show that they in fact, we're regulating the casino's here and doing a good job of keeping organized crime out the state of nevada decided to create the list of excluded persons who became nicknamed the black book >> the black book was created in 1960 and it's called the black book because believe it or not, it was a black binder. they could have been more creative they made a listen let's gi

i mean, this is an election between two people and a crockpot if you want to include bobby kennedy, ands much better and has a fantastic record. look, i'm not particularly close to biden but i'll tell you, i think he has the best domestic record of any president since johnson, the kind of stuff that you had on earlier. >> i was going to ask another question but you bring up bobby kennedy, does he have the potential to be a spoiler? >> he does, i don't think he will get anywhere close to 10 to 14%, but i do think he will take votes away from trump, too. the only problem is, he may take, i mean, there are a few conspiracy theorists, that might vote for him. i don't think those people were ever going to vote for biden, the question is, would they vote for trump and maybe he will peel some people off of trump but i think when people get to know more about bobby kennedy, unfortunately for the kennedy family who have a lot of respect and sympathy for, he will,, the name of the kennedy family will be drug through the mud when he gets done with his campaign. >> thank you both so much for coming

i watched in horror as 2 of my heroes, like many of you, to doctor king and bobby kennedy to recess noon. and their legacy is inspired me to pursue a career, a career service. i left the law firm became a public defender because my city of wilmington was the only city in america occupied the national guard after doctor kate was assassinated as a variety and i became the county council on almost by action. i got lex's united states senate and i had no intention of running today to 20 non then vice.

>> so the bobby kennedy thing -- i actually think bobby kennedy might hurt trump more than he hurts -it's funny you say that. we had one headline in politico say rfk is a spoiler but for who? >> 30% of the country are just like "f" the whole thing. and biden is not going to get any of the "f" it all vote. so i think there's something -- what worries me is cornell west and jill stein because they're going to get some of the "f" it all vote, too. >> cornell, he has almost as many movie cameos himself as you do. >> he's a part of this corporate doo wop and all the same thing. he's got some charm jill stein never had, but he's -- i don't see him getting a whole lot of votes, but i see the possibility he's going to take something out of our hide. and the big question is no labels. it looks like people are not standing in line -- actually governor christie, a friend of mine said thanks but no thanks. senator leiberman -- but they're having their issues too. let's wait and see. i think no labels and certain candidates would be -- >> i have more for you. i also can't help but notice i don't k

we have books that are for bobby kennedy. so, you know, it's really across the political spectrum with all the different nuances. and that's the kind of publisher that i that i want to be. so when it comes to conservative books, i've been really fascinated by the censorship of those books. so that kind of drew me more towards that kind of publishing and on the, you know, on the democratic side, if, if you have a really well-respected democrat writing a mainstream book right now, you have five, you know, gigantic publishing companies, five companies that, you know, are more than $1,000,000,000 companies that are going to get a bid on those books. but if you have a really great, you know, exciting, interesting, challenging conservative book, there are not many publishers who would be brave enough to publish them now. so that's a it's a very strange historical moment. there. and so i wanted to take part in kind of writing what i see as a as a wrong. you've published woody allen, rfk jr, as you said. alex jones. so is there anyth

will they vote for bobby kennedy junior or jill stein? it is probably all of the above. some will go to another person. it is tough. trump will lose some of those people but can biden win them over? they both face really tough challenges. there is a lot of dissatisfaction among their own voters. biden has got to keep the progressives in line. a lot of people are disenchanted with him. it is going to be tough. in the end, a lot of nikki haley voters will vote for trump. >> president biden delivers a state of the union tomorrow. what do you think voters are looking for? it could be a potentially big night for him. >> do voters even watch the state of the union anymore? certainly, there are a lot of people that want to hear the changes. there are voters who don't see him as a strong enough leader. one of the things that appeal to them about donald trump is they think he is strong. whether they agree with him or not on policies, they don't see biden as a robust guy. they want to see energy. they want to see strength. the majority of voters agree with joe biden on a lot of is

. >> listen to bobby kennedy in his own words. take a look at his vision for america. it is a vision that i share too. as i spend the next seven months of my life getting him on each and every ballot in this country. >> robert f. kennedy, the nephew of the 35th president, john f. kennedy, will be running as an independent but needed to name a running mate before getting his name on most state ballots. i spoke with a political expert about how kennedy and shanahan could skew the race. >> every vote will matter this particular november, and that's where rfk jr. can play an important role. and he's mostly playing in democratic states or states that democrats slightly picked up in 2020. he will draw from donald trump. you're absolutely spot on about that, but he also draws at a higher level with those disaffected democrat, particularly african american men and younger voters in those key battleground states. >> rfk jr. began his campaign as a primary challenge to president biden but last fall said he would run as an independent instead. >> thank, anne. >>> turning to weath

democrats and neither side is that torqued up about bobby kennedy junior.ng that might knock him back a little bit probably would not be the most popular person thanks giving dinner. we talk about these things you are talking about -- mchugh when i talked about how people perceive theaá economy tt is or isn't helping the current president. first of all i appreciate being here. it's part of an affirmative action program for people who did not do wellin economics 101 and college. [laughter] so i appreciate that. economists talk about the economy and swing voters think about my economy my personal economy but how do i proceed? so with all due respect to this incredibly smart people you could have this room and nobel prize-winning economist in terms of what impact of the going to have on the election i would rather look at a cross-section of swing voters. what should and what is is often times different. i think when a president biden d approval late ratings admitted to high 50s through june and jud 49 in august and then in september dropped another handful of

i watched in horror as 2 of my heroes, like many to the doctor king and bobby kennedy to recess, need their legacy, then smart, read it for free, for so a career, a career service i left the law firm became a public defender because my city of wilmington was the only city in america occupied the national guard. after doctor king was assassinated as the riots and i became a county council and almost by action. i got elected united states senate and when i had no intention to run is age 29, then vice president of our 1st black president. now president, for the 1st white, the problem to, to your how do i, they don't let me understand the elevators vote sometimes. it's not a joke. and i've been told i'm too old. while they're younger, old, i've always been known. i've always known what endures. i've known are northstar, the very idea of america's overall crated ek, deserves to be treated equally throughout our lives. we've never fully lived up to that idea, but we've never walked away from that a, the, the, the, you know, we are, it's how do i do the division of the oldest of ideas. but y

i watched in horror as 2 of my heroes, like many due to doctor king and bobby kennedy to assassinate their legacy, then smart, read it for free, for so clear a career service i left the law firm became a public defender because my city of wilmington was the only city in the mirror and talked to private national guard after doctor king was assassinated as riots and i became the county council on almost by action. i got lex's united states senate and i had no intention of running that age 29. then vice president of our 1st black president. now president for the 1st, when was the me having to learn to young? how do i they don't let me understand the elevators vote, so i'm trying not to jump and i've been told i'm too old whether young or old. i've always been known. i've always known what endures. northstar. the very idea of america has ever all crated. ek deserves to be treated equally throughout our lives. we've never fully lived up to that idea, but we've never walked away from ready to walk away from the mm hm. oh we are. it's how old are i do? hey, retribution of the oldest of idea

. >> i think bobby kennedy jr has the potential to be the biggest factor of a third party candidate,anyone, since ross perot in 92, or maybe jill stein or ralph nader sometimes it gives me goosebumps. >> so far, kennedy is on the ballot only in utah, but his campaign says it has enough signatures to get on the ballot in nevada, new hampshire and hawaii. and a pro kennedy superpac claims it has gathered enough signatures to add arizona, georgia and michigan. democrats have filed a complaint protesting how those signatures were obtained. kennedy is expected to choose a running mate in the coming weeks. that's because some states require a running mate to get on the ballot. >> the house votes today on a proposal to crack down on tiktok . the bipartisan measure would force tiktok's chinese parent company to sell the app or to be banned here in the us. many lawmakers say tiktok poses a serious national security risk. others worry a ban would violate freedom of expression and hurt small businesses. the house is expected to pass the bill, but its future remains uncertain in the senate. >> n

one is cornell, west who will not make a dent in the elections and he's getting no coverage. bobby kennedy is running somewhat on a piece platform. he also is getting no publicity, he also will have a hard time even getting on the ballots in all 50 states, but even he is very unconditionally supportive of the i d f. but amongst the 2 major parties, the 2 parties that have any chance of winning. and the last candidate that really tried to counter that are the last president who really tried to book that was named john f. kennedy and he was murdered. and i really think, and i said this last night, i think that the republic died with him and we really have been run by what president and president eisenhower termed the military industrial complex. and it was some criticism of putin's election in the west re election, landslide victory, congratulations. so also coming in from of the pockets of the world web. that's china, venezuela. nicaragua, was about john batteries just among the many nations the latest to throw in his will message about them. and putin was the indian prime minister read fro

one is coronel west, who will not make a dent in the elections, and he's getting notes coverage. bobby kennedy is running somewhat on a piece platform. he also is getting no publicity. he also will have a hard time even getting on the ballots. in all 50 states, but even he is very unconditionally supportive of the i d f. but amongst the 2 major parties, the 2 parties that have any chance of winning, there is complete unit damage unit and normally the on the support for the war machine. and that has been true for a long, long time. and the last candidate that really tried to counter that are the last president who really tried to buck that was named john f. kennedy and he was murdered. and i really think, and i said this last night, i think that the republic died with him, and we really have been run by what president and president eisenhower termed the military industrial complex. i also want to talk about crimea just for, for a moment. i mean, it's such an interesting one because we understand how important it is to russia, both historically in terms of its identity. and so let's be honest wi

bobby kennedy, independiente nos va a dar una oportunidad de escuchar otras ideas.n f. kennedy, ha sido señalado por su postura crítica ante la seguridad de las vacunas. por su parte, shanahan dirige una fundación que destina fondos a temas relacionados con la salud reproductiva y causas ambientales por el momento, el nombre de kennedy jr ya se encuentra en la boleta de utah y su equipo aseguró que esta semana harán la petición a 19 estados más que requerían tener a una compañera de fórmula, fátima navarrete noticiero. telemundo 48. vámonos. otros temas organizadores del evento anual de marihuana hippie en el parque golden gate anunciaron hoy su cancelación según un mensaje en el sitio web oficial, los recortes presupuestarios en toda la ciudad, la situación actual en la industria del cannabis y la economía son las razones por las que no pueden conseguir suficientes respaldo financiero para un evento limpio y seguro. entonces yo digo que si lo cancelan va a estar todo cerrado, va a estar todo lento, 1 gente, nadie más va a querer venir a la ciudad, verdad? bueno, es

one is cornell west, who will not make a dent in the elections and he's getting notes coverage. bobby kennedy is running somewhat on a piece platform. he also is getting no publicity. he also will have a hard time even getting on the ballots. in all 50 states, but even he is very unconditionally supportive of the i d f. but amongst the 2 major parties, the 2 parties that have any chance of winning. and the last candidate that really try to counter that are the last president who really tried to book that was named john f. kennedy and he was murdered. and i really think, and i said this last night, i think that the republic died with him. and we really have been run by what president and president eisenhower termed the military industrial complex. while the west takes aim with much scorn out loud the mirror, curtains lung slight victory, congratulations are continuing to come in around the world. china beller. ruth and venezuela were among the countries to do so with indian prime minister and a rent remote, a also sending a message to president one congratulations to mister vladimir, putting o

. >> i think bobby kennedy might hurt trump more. >> new fox news polling shows rfk takes votes from both sides. 10% of democrats and 8% of republicans say they support him. "politico" describes kennedy's backers as a different breed quote, for decades the kennedy name was synonymous with a mainstream strain of civic optimism that preached public service when more americans had faith in their government. today his supporters tend to place a corrupt government at the root of america's ills. they ask not what their government can do for them, but what it has done to them. richard, how does this play out? joy behar isn't the only liberal freaking out. >> i think what the congressman said and behar said are connected. as you move closer to this election. the longest election cycle of our life. you will see this boil down to some of the main issues affecting the american people. you talked about them at the beginning of the shoechlt economy, crime, other issues. what you see happening is this. we see the economy moving in the right direction the dow going to 40,000. we see crime ticking do

. >> i have two heroes, bobby kennedy and no malarkey, dr. king. >> it's exactly 60 years ago this month when president kennedy hosted the boston sell celtics. the first nba championship team. >> i remember teddy kennedy and a few others came to me and said look, joe, just come and stay six months. >> predecessor so fondly. in fact today as fundraiser in texas president biden said about former president trump during covid, he said inject bleach, i think he must have done it. he told us to hit the body with the uv light which i'm confident he does. bret? >> bret: peter, what is the attorney general saying about the special counsel robert hur's report critical of president biden's memory? >> it doesn't sound like he felt any pressure to change the report even though president biden's personal attorneys sent him a letter. strongly worded letter. asking the attorney general to intervene and remove references to president biden in that report before it went live. >> the idea that an attorney general would edit or redact or censor a special counsel'

and maybe he will peel some people off of trump but i think when people get to know more about bobby kennedy, unfortunately for the kennedy family who have a lot of respect and sympathy for, he will,, the name of the kennedy family will be drug through the mud when he gets done with his campaign. >> thank you both so much for coming on. good to see you both. and for all of you, that will do it for me on this edition of alex witt reports, we will be back at 1:00 eastern and in the meantime, msnbc prime weekend is next. is next. stories. >> donald trump has not come up with a magical solution to stop lakisha james from taking his assets to guarantee the payment for his civil fraud trial against donald trump. >> the merger announced to today from a higher company called the digital world acquisition company can do nothing to change his financial capacities on monday when donald trump hits the deadline for satisfying the judgment against him. if hehe had 46 $4 million, he could just post it with the court. as a guarantee that he could cover the judgment, if he loses his appeal over the case. don

he was in new hampshire with bobby kennedy, i mean, with mccarthy and then with with bobby when he died. and it was a time capsule, the sixties. so for the last few years of his life, i would be working what i was doing in my study. and a good friend of ours, deb colby, came over to our house to start going through the boxes him so they'd go over to his study which was on the other side of the room, then come back for lunch. and in the days before this he would always be looking over what i did. give me advice on what i'd been writing. then he'd go back to the study in the afternoon and would do other things, maybe read poetry or read drama and i could work again. but then every night at five or 6:00, we stopped, never worked after that we after our kids grown, we went out to dinner every night with a gang of people in concord center who we knew the same restaurants, some restaurant monday nights, some restaurant thursday nights. i'm mercer and then we come home, watch on television, go to bed. and so i've always been a morning person. yeah and the hardest thing that happened, you know,

bobby kennedy can fall into every swing state and foul it up for joe biden. >> this is one of the biggestts to joe biden being reelected. >> i do worry that bobby is taking some percentage of those from biden could shift the election and lead to trump's election. >> laura: democrats have given up on trying to persuade voters through debate and policy success. that was the old way of politics. now, it's just a constant campaign of control, propaganda, and suppression. biden's not leading a political movement. no way. it's just a cult of conformity. and that's the angle. >> laura: joining me now is florida congressman byron donalds, member of the house oversight committee. congressman, now, you have done -- you have done a lot of interviews on other networks. but this really did take the cake. and it -- i covered it, i waited for a few days to cover this. because i think it really does connect with what they're doing with r.f.k. jr. is that they are both evidence of this bunker mentality on the left. doesn't really scream confidence, does it? >> no, it doesn't. i will tell you having done s

he was a great labor leader and friend and ally to the real bobby kennedy. ies and the beliefs of chavez and his father, bobby. he's just a shape shifter, man. >> you think biden has a third party problem here? >> i think there are several people who are going to run. so collectively, there's a third party problem. i don't know if it adds up to bobby. i have known him for years. i think the more people know him, know his story, and know this kind of shape shifting, anti-vaccine, anti-gun control, huckster that he has become, i don't think he's going to have a lot of appeal. >> it's interesting, anyone can run, but the most kennedy thing about rfk at this point is his last name and not much else. >> he's trading on it. that's what you saw in the super bowl ad. >> if there was an obama niece, nephew off the platforms. >> totally different politics. >> people are going to ask, is that red hat, is it a maga hat? they're going to ask. >> this hat? no, this is a not now i'm busy. >> there you go. i tell you one thing that music and politics have in common, you ough

bobby kennedy, how would that be seen?he makes to it the debate stage, how do you think he affects the stage and the raice? >> it would make it more interesting. who knows if no labels has a candidate and it's a four way. you have to qualify. you have to pass the 15% threshold. what r.f.k. jr. has to focus on is getting on ballots. i watched your interview. he would be wise to go to the libertarian party. they have a head start of getting on ballots. it's not easy to do. if you can't get on enough ballots, you can't get in the debates. >> neil: and you know your political history, too. we always look at the role of h. ross perot in 1992 getting 19% of the vote. for my money, the case is what george wallace pulled off. he won all of the southern states. he got 45 electoral votes. and then he took votes away from humphrey and nixon was elected. i'm not sure lightning strikes twice. big differences there. the role of the third-party candidate isn't just that of a spoiler sometimes. he can rack up quite a few electoral votes.

the threat to democracy must be defended as two of my heroes like many of you know dr king and bobby kennedy were assassinated and their legacy inspired me to pursue a career in service. israel has an added burden is not about him or me i would be a winner not i would [ inaudible an innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal that's right, but how many thousands of people have been killed by legal i will get in trouble for saying this but anyone who wants to get into air force one and fly to toronto or berlin or moscow, well even moscow probably. >> sean: her name was on the button link in riley, not lincoln riley lincoln riley you are holding her pen, on the pen her name was written on it how did you manage to still get it wrong the american people were taking note and rightly so and now jacked up joe biden is underwater across the board most recent gallup poll he is at a low approval rating of only 38 percent a far cry from the 5t incumbents typically need to win reelection and perhaps even more alarming for joe is a recent bbc poll showing 86 percent of you the american people thank
