Link: Mayorkas personally rejected RFK Jr. Secret Service protection

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who today faces a second impeachment vote in the House, personally rejected an “urgent” appeal from independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for Secret Service protection.

In a letter dated July 21, 2023, two weeks after the urgent appeal, Mayorkas dismissed the request without explanation...

Dead Kennedys. You can never have enough.

 

We can't afford to spend that $$$ on RFK. We need those agents to protect mexican cartel Fentanyl smugglers. So far the drug is working amazing to help kill citizens and fulfill the left's dream of a smaller population.

 

What explanation? The standards are already known. Just google them.

The tradition is that you have to earn your right to secret service protection which means being the nominee or the presumptive nominee And then it won't be for 120 days before the election or your national polls are high and you're a major candidate and RFKjr is nowhere near any of these points

 

Maybe the RFK Jr campaign should pay for their own security details? Why should the federal government subsidize political campaigns?

 

Bribed Joe and Mayorkas want RFK vulnerable to assassination.

 

When determining whether a candidate for the Office of President or Vice President of the United States qualifies as a major candidate, the Secretary has broad discretion and may consider a variety of factors. These factors include, but are not limited to:

1. Whether the candidate has publicly announced his or her candidacy and has filed the appropriate documentation with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and is in compliance with the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended, and related laws;
   
2. Whether the candidate is actively campaigning on a national basis for the office for which his or her candidacy has been announced, as demonstrated by operating a national campaign apparatus, regularly appearing at public events in multiple states, producing and publishing campaign advertisements, and other similar indicia of a campaign;
   
3. A threat assessment conducted by the Secret Service of general or specific threats directed towards the candidate (for these purposes, “threats” should be defined as explicit threats of bodily harm to the candidate or indications of inappropriate behavior towards the candidate suggesting potential bodily harm);
   
4. Whether, during and within an active and competitive major party primary, the most recent average of established national polls, as reflected by the Real Clear Politics National Average or similar mechanism, the candidate is polling at 15% or more for 30 consecutive days;
   
5. Whether the candidate is the formal or de facto nominee of a major party for President or Vice President;
   
6. Whether the candidate is an independent or third-party candidate for President polling at 20% or more of the Real Clear Politics National Average for 30 consecutive days;
   
7. Whether the candidate is the Vice Presidential running mate of the above independent or third-party candidate.

 

RFK could become inconvenient to Bribed Joe
