Patrick Kennedy — a longtime mental health advocate — made the admission in a NOTUS interview Monday. He is one of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s last remaining family allies.

I would not be able to run for office and probably survive a Democratic primary, Patrick Kennedy told the outlet, with all the work that I've done with the secretary. Caroline Kennedy has described the HHS secretary as a predator in a January 2025 letter to senators. She urged them to reject his nomination to lead the Department of Health and Human Services.
