It is those who own so many divisions between our own people. It’s the guy who shot my father, my uncle @RealdonaldTrump In my head. It’s people who have poisoned our own people for years so that they can make more profits. They are a group of the same people. And we will not stop until we split them into 1,000, a deep state, and reclaim our nation,” the post reads in part.

This claim is wrong. Kennedy JR account is not @RFKJR_OFFICIAL. that’s right @robertkennedyjr. There was nowhere else to tweet about the deep nation that killed his father’s uncle and Donald Trump.

The account says it is a “parody.” The account bio has a “m”Y pronoun: Prosecutor/fauci. Post commentary, news and updates on politics and health. Parody account. No affiliation. to follow @robertkennedyjr. ”
