Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Says in Interview He Talks ‘a Lot’ to ‘Dead People’

Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said in a startling interview that he has a "lot of conversations with dead people."

He later reportedly clarified in a followup text to the online media site the Free Press that he "gets no strategic advice from the dead. "

The text also characterized his "conversations" with his late father and uncle and former President John F. Kennedy as "one-way prayers for strength and wisdom."

Kennedy referred to the "conversations" when he was asked by the Free Press in the interview published Wednesday how he imagined his father and uncle would deal with politics today.

“I have conversations with my father and my uncle about what I’m doing," Kennedy told the Free Press.

"I do meditations every day, and that’s kind of the nature of my meditations," he said. "I have a lot of conversations with dead people.” 

But Kennedy didn't share what he believes his dad and uncle would do today.

He, meanwhile, believes he's trying to speak "truth to power," and considers Democrats "neocons."

Kennedy, an advocate for protecting the environment, a conspiracy theorist and COVID vaccine doubter, has a reputation for nontraditional views.

He once compared American COVID quarantines and lockdowns to Germany under the Nazis, which garnered a stern rebuke from the Auschwitz Memorial.

His sister, human rights advocate Kerry Kennedy, said then of his comments that "Bobby's lies and fear-mongering ... were both sickening and destructive."

He later apologized.

Kennedy's wife, Cheryl Hines, has also denounced his position on the COVID vacccines but is supporting his presidential run.

The Free Press reported that its interviewer was greeted at Kennedy’s Los Angeles home by a guard “with an earpiece and a nondisclosure agreement."

When the journalist refused to sign, Kennedy reportedly “came out, shrugged, and led" the reporter inside.
