Plenty of presidential candidates have received Secret Service protection prior to 120 days before the election. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been denied the protection he requested by the Biden administration. Will he get it now that a possible assassination attempt was thwarted in Los Angeles? From Robert W.

After the incident involving an armed man allegedly claiming to be a U.S. Marshal, Mr. Kennedy Jr. renewed his call for Secret Service protection.
LOS ANGELES—An armed man was arrested by police at an event attended by Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
Photos provided to The Epoch Times show the man, who was wearing a shirt with “EMS” on the back, being held in handcuffs by police officers outside the event venue in Los Angeles on Friday afternoon. Multiple police vehicles were at the scene.
The Los Angeles Police Department told The Epoch Times it received a call at around 4:30 p.m. reporting that a male was in front of the event venue with “a badge on their lapel, a gun, and a shoulder holster, and claimed to be a U.S. Marshal.”
A spokesperson for Mr. Kennedy Jr. confirmed the incident to The Epoch Times. Mr. Kennedy Jr. had not arrived at the venue yet when the incident occurred.
According to the LAPD, the man reportedly claimed to be employed for the event, but he wasn’t recognized by the security staff.
So, it has begun.
One of my first memories as a young child was of the assassination of John F. Kennedy. I was actually being cared for by a close relative (“Toby”) of my mothers’ at the time of the events. Like the shock of the planes hitting the twin towers and Pentagon on 9-11, it was one of those moments when the world stopped.
I am not an advisor to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. or his campaign or affiliated super-PACs, but it seems like a year ago when he told me in private that he was considering running for President of the USA, and then last summer Jill (Dr. Jill Glasspool-Malone) and I were asked to comment on very favorable polling data and what we thought about the hard decision he faced. It would have been a lot easier if the polling was not so encouraging.
