RFK Jr. expresses frustration over Haley’s potential Secret Service protection

Independent 2024 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. expressed his frustration at the potential for former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley to receive protection from the Secret Service.

“While I’m happy she’ll be protected and publicly supported her request, double standards abound,” Kennedy wrote on X on Friday. “My campaign first requested Secret Service protection in May 2023 with a 63 page declaration. We still have a current request pending. My request is the first time in 55 years a candidate has ever been denied. The Biden administration is the sole outlier to turn down a request for Secret Service coverage.”
