RFK Jr. to Name California Lawyer Nicole Shanahan as Running Mate

The New York Times reported that the political scion will announce Shanahan, a Silicon Valley lawyer, as his pick for vice president.

Shanahan is a California attorney and the ex-wife of Google co-founder Sergey Brin. The Times notes that she has a history of donating to Democratic candidates, including President Joe Biden. She recently forked over $4 million to help finance a Super Bowl ad for Kennedy’s campaign, one in which he compared himself to his uncle, John F. Kennedy. The Kennedy family has largely opposed RFK Jr.’s run, and his cousin Bobby Shriver bashed the ad for using the family’s faces to promote RKF JR.’s “deadly health care views.” Kennedy ultimately apologized for the ad.

Shanahan, an attorney and entrepreneur, brings little Main Street name recognition to Kennedy's ticket, but potential financial firepower and connections in the tech industry and abortion rights activism.

She is president of the private Bia-Echo Foundation, which invests in helping women bear children at older ages, criminal justice reform and the environment.

RFK Jr. will do nothing but serving as a spoiler and help Trump.

This was literally a plot from Newsradio. The Trumpesque station owner announced he was running for President, and that he wanted a female running mate, but he was really looking for a girlfriend.

No way she's not already having an affair with horndog Jr.

She is bringing serious money to his campaign. Wonder if Trump will do something similar when he chooses his running mate. A pox on both their houses.

Nicole Shanahan?

I guess Kennedy was looking to shore up the Irish vote.
