Investigate Trump's Shady Payment to RFK-Connected Law Firm

New revelations show that Donald Trump’s campaign made a $100,000 payment to a law firm employing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. just days after Kennedy dropped his independent presidential campaign and endorsed Trump. This suspicious timing raises serious concerns about whether this payment was part of a quid pro quo arrangement, creating the appearance of a bribe to secure Kennedy’s support.

Kennedy officially ended his independent campaign on August 23, 2024, endorsing Trump at a press conference in Phoenix and appearing alongside him at a rally later that day. Less than two weeks later, Trump’s campaign paid $100,000 to the Kennedy-connected law firm under a flat fee agreement—an unusual arrangement for legal services. Kennedy has since become an active campaigner for Trump and was named to Trump’s transition team shortly after his endorsement.

This payment undermines public trust in the electoral process and raises serious questions about campaign finance violations. The Federal Election Commission (FEC) must investigate whether this payment was intended to influence Kennedy’s endorsement, his role in Trump’s campaign, or his decision to drop out of the race—actions that could constitute serious violations of campaign finance law.

Campaign finance laws exist to protect our democracy from corruption and undue influence. The timing and nature of this payment demand immediate scrutiny to ensure transparency and accountability.

We call on the Federal Election Commission to launch a full investigation into Donald Trump’s payment to this RFK-connected law firm. The American people deserve to know whether their elections are being influenced by unethical or illegal financial practices.

Sign this petition to demand transparency and accountability. Let’s ensure that no one—no matter how powerful—gets away with undermining our democracy.
