False and Misleading Statements by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Nicole Shanahan
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his running mate, Nicole Shanahan, made false or misleading statements regarding childhood vaccines and the increase in autism prevalence. Kennedy also inaccurately claimed that Trump's and Biden's policies resulted in a large transfer of wealth to new billionaires during the pandemic. Shanahan wrongly claimed she would be the youngest U.S. vice president if elected, overlooking historical facts.
