On Thursday afternoon, members of the Kennedy endorsed President Joe Biden at a campaign rally in Philadelphia.
Biden’s rally in Philadelphia is the last major stop in a three-day swing through Pennsylvania.
During this trip, he laid out his economic and tax agenda and attacked former President Donald Trump as an enemy of working people.
Kennedy family members approached the Biden team and requested a joint event for the endorsements.
Joseph Kennedy, Kerry Kennedy, Rory Kennedy, Kathleen Kennedy, Maxwell Kennedy and Christopher Kennedy backed Biden during this rally.
The event is a further rejection of their family member and independent presidential candidate, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The president’s campaign released a list of 15 Kennedys scheduled to appear at this rally but also mentioned that other family members would endorse him.
Joe Kennedy III, a former Democratic congressman from Massachusetts, introduced Biden at a second event.

Joe Biden was joined by members of the Kennedy family in Philadelphia today to promote their endorsement of the president, a conspicuous rebuke of the independent bid of Robert Kennedy Jr.
Kerry Kennedy, Rfk Jr.’s sister, introduced Biden at the event, noting that “nearly every grandchild of Joe and Rose Kennedy supports Joe Biden. That’s right, the Kennedy family endorses Joe Biden for president.”
She was joined by 14 other relatives. They include siblings Rory, Joe, Chris, Max and Kathleen, as well as Joe Kennedy III, who serves as a special envoy to Northern Ireland.
Kerry Kennedy said that “in 2024 there are only two candidates with any chance of winning the presidency. We know that well.”
Rfk Jr.’s campaign could prove consequential to Biden’s prospects, especially if he is able to secure ballot access in key swing states and siphon votes way from the president’s reelection effort.

President Joe Biden welcomed over 30 members of the Kennedy family to the White House for a St. Patrick’s Day celebration on Sunday. Notably, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has embarked on a third-party bid for the presidency, was absent from the event.
Kerry Kennedy, the sister of Rfk Jr., took to X to share a photograph of the Kennedy family gathered alongside Biden, with the picturesque Rose Garden as the backdrop.
Biden expressed what a joy the Kennedy family was to host at the White House. In a message posted on X, he conveyed heartfelt regards, “From one proud Irish family to another — it was good to have you all back at the White House.”
Joe Kennedy III, Biden’s envoy to Northern Ireland, also took to X to share his enthusiasm for the gathering. With a touch of familial camaraderie, he remarked, “Small family gathering this afternoon!”

The Kennedys have never shied away from symbolism, and it’s not hard to read the political message in a St. Patrick’s Day photo taken at the White House that includes President Joe Biden and dozens of members of the iconic political clan but very obviously does not include the family member who is himself running for the presidency: Rfk, Jr.
The photo was posted by the candidate’s sister, Kerry Kennedy, who has been outspoken in her criticism of her brother. When he declared his bid last year, Kerry Kennedy posted a statement distancing herself from his controversial views. Other members of the family have also spoken out. The most recent post seems more a statement by omission.
Along with the photo, which features former congressman Patrick Kennedy, Ambassador Caroline Kennedy, Biden’s special envoy to Northern Ireland Joe Kennedy III and family members of all ages, Kerry Kennedy wrote,...

Beto O’Rourke appears to have failed in his long-shot bid to unseat incumbent Republican Sen. Ted Cruz in Texas, a state that no Democrat has carried for president in 42 years.
The Associated Press and other news outlets project Cruz will win re-election, in a victory that crushes Democratic hopes to retake the Senate with the help of the charismatic three-term congressman from El Paso.
Social media helped the progressive rise to national prominence. In the aftermath of the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando in June 2016, O’Rourke live-streamed a sit-in by House Democrats to protest Republicans’ refusal to bring gun control legislation to the floor for a vote. He attracted millions of viewers with a Facebook Live live-stream of a road trip from San Antonio to Washington, D.C, where he and Republican Congressman Will Hurd sang along to Johnny Cash and dropped by Whataburger for a bite.

Hollywood, the Beltway and gun reform activists – including the Parkland, Florida students who have taken an impressive lead on the topic – responded quickly to today’s shooting at Santa Fe High School in Texas. The shooting left 10 dead, including nine students and a teacher. A 17-year-old suspect is in custody, along with a second person, possibly an accomplice.
“Prepare to watch the NRA boast about getting higher donations,” tweeted Parkland survivor Cameron Kasky. “Prepare to see students rise up and be called ‘civil terrorists’ and crisis actors. Prepare for the right-wing media to attack the survivors.”
Kasky’s schoolmate and fellow activist David Hogg wrote, “Get ready for two weeks of media coverage of politicians acting like they give a shit when in reality they just want to boost their approval ratings before midterms.”

“We can do better than this,” tweeted Ellen DeGeneres. “We must do better than this.

Rep. Joe Kennedy III put new meaning into dirty politics when he had to go digging for his phone through a fast food restaurant's trash can. People who were there tell us JK3 had finished eating an early dinner Wednesday at Santa Rosa Taqueria on Capitol Hill and accidentally threw out his tray of food with his phone on it. Joe was alone, so he took off his suit jacket, rolled up his sleeves and got to work.
