RFK Jr. Urged Iowa Libertarian to Quit House Race

“Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. urged a Libertarian congressional candidate in Iowa to drop out of a competitive House race to help Republicans keep control of Congress, according to an audio recording of the conversation,” the Washington Post reports.

“During the call, Kennedy said he was acting as a ‘liaison’ with the White House, argued that a Democratic takeover of the House would undermine President Donald Trump’s agenda and suggested that he could help the candidate if he left the race.”

“He also suggested that the candidate could ‘make an agreement’ that would accomplish more than a ‘symbolic run’ for office.”
