REPORT: Kennedy To Name Attorney As Running Mate

Mediaite reports:

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is planning to tap Nicole Shanahan, a California-based attorney and entrepreneur once married to Google co-founder Sergey Brinn, as his running mate for his independent bid for the presidency, Mediaite has learned.

Aaron Rodgers, the outspoken NFL quarterback who Kennedy had been considering as his VP pick, is out of the running, a source close to the campaign said. The prospect of his selection prompted concerns among donors to the campaign.

Shanahan, who was behind Kennedy’s Super Bowl commercial, is now expected to be named the running mate to the long-shot bid.

Not much known about Nicole Shanahan, RFK Jr.’s reported running mate pick, other than 1) she was accused of having an affair with far right wing billionaire Elon Musk and 2) she paid millions for that RFK Jr. Super Bowl ad that offended his family members.

In 2018, she married one of the richest men in the world—Google co-founder Sergey Brin. A year after they split, a damning report claimed that the divorce occurred because Nicole Shanahan had an affair with another billionaire —and one of her husband’s best friends—Elon Musk.
