FACT CHECK: RFK Jr. Did Not Write Post About Deep State Being Enemy

Elias Atienza | Senior Reporter

A post shared on X claims to show Heath and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. about the real enemy being the deep state.

Verdict: False

This is a parody account, not the actual account belonging to Kennedy Jr.

Fact Check:

Social media users are sharing a post, claiming it is from Kennedy Jr., about the deep state being the enemy. (RELATED: Claim That Trump Plans To Invalidate Biden’s Student Loan Forgiveness Program Is Satire)

It’s the ones who have sown so much division among our own people. It’s the ones who shot my dad, my uncle, and @realDonaldTrump in the head. It’s the ones who have poisoned our own people for years just so they can profit more. They’re the same group of people. And we will not stop until we splinter them, the deep state, into a thousand pieces and reclaim our country,” the post partially reads.

This claim is false. Kennedy Jr’s account is not @RFKJr_Official. It is @RobertKennedyJr. Nowhere has Kennedy Jr. tweeted about the deep state killing his father, uncle and Donald Trump.

The account does state it is “parody.” The account’s bio reads, “My pronouns: Prosecute/Fauci. I post commentary, news, and updates on politics and health. Parody account. No affiliation. Follow  @RobertKennedyJr.”
