Caroline Kennedy accuses RFK Jr of exploiting JFK's death Ms Kennedy also condemned RFK Jr for using her father's assassination and that of his own father's to "grandstand" during his presidential bid. RFK Jr has applauded President Donald Trump's move to declassify information on the killings of Robert F Kennedy and John F Kennedy, saying "a government that withholds information is inherently fearful of its citizens' ability to make informed decisions and participate actively in democracy". Ms Kennedy gave a farewell address to Australia in November, using a National Press Club speech to call RFK Jr's views on vaccines "dangerous".
