RFK Jr.’s former running mate reveals justice system is ‘abused’ by ‘nefarious people with malevolent political agendas’ persecuting Trump
“I’ll admit I used to kind of roll my eyes when people claimed that President Trump was being ‘persecuted.’ I was looking at it through the distorted filter of the media,” Nicole Shanahan wrote, adding “OK, I get it now.”
On Tuesday, Nicole Shanahan, the running mate of former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., said that the “justice system is clearly being co-opted and abused by nefarious people with malevolent political agendas" following the news that Jack Smith had filed a new grand jury indictment against former President Donald Trump.
"I'll admit I used to kind of roll my eyes when people claimed that President Trump was being ‘persecuted.’ I was looking at it through the distorted filter of the media," she wrote.
“Well, I just completed my first cross-examination in our second New York Ballot Access case,” Shanahan, an attorney, continued, “where the DNC-aligned PAC attorneys questioned me like a criminal. OK, I get it now. Our justice system is clearly being co-opted and abused by nefarious people with malevolent political agendas.”
Last week, Nicole Shanahan said that the Democratic Party sabotaged their campaign from both the inside and out before the pair quit the presidential race and Kennedy endorsed President Donald Trump for a second term in office.
Shanahan told Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu, "I would say that I trust the future of this country more under the leadership of Trump and the [Peter] Thiels and the JD Vances than I do right now under Harris and the Reid Hoffmans."
RFK Jr.’s former running mate also slammed the DNC-aligned Clear Choice PAC for funneling money to disrupt and harm the campaign, saying, "it was specifically created to take us out" and spent "millions of dollars to take us out." It was due to the efforts of Clear Choice, she said, that the campaign was turned into "a spoiler."
She said, "We wanted to win, we wanted a fair shot. The DNC made that impossible for us. They have banned us, shadowbanned us, kept us off stages, manipulated polls, used lawfare against us, sued us in every possible state. They've even planted insiders into our campaign to disrupt it and to create actual legal issues for us. I mean, the extent by which the sabotage they've unleashed upon us, it's mindblowing. We're still learning new ways that they have sabotaged us."
