00:00Congressman, obviously, a type of event like this transcends party lines.
00:05An independent presidential candidate, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., does not have Secret Service
00:10protection.
00:11He's asked for it, has been denied of it.
00:13Do you think he deserves protection in light of this event?
00:17Absolutely.
00:18On my Twitter account, at Tim Burchett, I tweeted about that today, but I've also weeks
00:23ago I did.
00:24Hunter Biden has security services, and yet a member of the Kennedy family running for
00:31president with their family's history is not being provided.
00:34I think that is a grave error, and I think that's showing where the politics is lying
00:40into this.
00:41And if politics is just saying he's not going to get any protection, then I think we need
00:47to really delve in deep to what's going on within our Secret Service.
