Biden will face Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for the presidency.

 Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has submitted the necessary paperwork to run as a Democrat for US president in 2024.

The 69-year-old is the nephew of President John F. Kennedy and the son of killed Senator Robert F. Kennedy.John E. Sullivan, the campaign treasurer for the environmental attorney, confirmed the filing on Wednesday.



Mr. Kennedy is a vocal opponent of vaccinations. In 2021, Instagram deleted his account after discovering that it had "repeatedly shared disproved claims."

While not yet formally announcing his candidature, President Joseph Biden has said he will seek re-election.

His campaign was originally scheduled to begin in early April, but according to his advisers, that date has changed.

His formal announcement of a run is anticipated to come in the first half of the summer, according to CBS News, the BBC's US partner.Another Democrat, Marianne Williamson, entered the campaign for president last month.

On the Republican side, Donald Trump was the first to announce his candidature; others have since joined him, including Nikki Haley, a former US ambassador to the UN.



Kennedy said on Twitter in March that he was thinking about running for president.

At the time, he declared: "If I run, ending the corrupt fusion of governmental and corporate power that has destroyed our economy, destroyed the middle class, poisoned our children, and robbed us of our values and liberties will be my first priority."

In March, Mr. Kennedy told a gathering in New Hampshire that he had "passed the toughest hurdle": his wife's approval of the campaign.

Mr. Kennedy, who was a co-founder of an environmental law company, received praise for his advocacy on behalf of clean water concerns, notably his work to clean up the Hudson River in New York.

His anti-vaccine views, however, have been around for a while and have drawn a lot of criticism, even from members of his own family. On the subject, Kerry Kennedy, his sister, referred to him as "extremely dangerous" in 2021.

Three further family members criticised Robert Kennedy's anti-vaccine stance in an opinion piece published in Politico in 2019.

His niece Maeve Kennedy McKean, brother Joseph P. Kennedy II, and sister Kathleen Kennedy Townsend all criticised him for holding "tragically erroneous" views that have "deadly implications."

Children's Health Defense, an anti-vaccine organisation started by Mr. Kennedy, had accounts deleted from Facebook and Instagram in 2022 for "repeatedly" breaking the terms of service about spreading false information about medicine.

WrestleMania 2023 : schedule ,Time and lot more

Arriving in Los Angeles is the biggest sporting extravaganza. Over the weekend, WWE WrestleMania 39 takes place with a star-studded lineup that includes some of the most popular storylines in professional wrestling. The main event of WrestleMania 39 is one of the most eagerly anticipated matches in recent memory. As the weekend comes to a close, dominant, record-breaking champion Roman Reigns defends the uncontested WWE championship against Cody Rhodes. Before we get there, a Saturday night neighbouring feud with an equal amount of juice occurs. Undisputed champions The Usos will face Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens in an epic tag team championship fight. After becoming a "Honorary Uce" while betraying Owens, Zayn had been entangled in The Bloodline tale for months, until circumstances changed. On Saturday, John Cena takes a brief break from his hectic Hollywood schedule to take on the US champion Austin Theory, but Cena is far from the only retired star to walk foot on the card.  ...

WrestleMania 39 results : Sami Zayn and The Night 1 Winners, Losers

Night 1 of WWE WrestleMania 39 will be a hard act to follow. It would have battled with all-time greats like WrestleMania 17, 19, 30, and 31 as one of the best if tonight had been a one-night WrestleMania. Night 2 has the potential to further its already illustrious legacy, and I absolutely anticipate it will. But, after a first night that maintained pace with what has been a highly successful Triple H Era, WWE would effectively be playing with house money on Sunday night. Austin Theory defeated John Cena to begin WrestleMania with the biggest victory of his career, but it is unclear if this represents the pinnacle of his abilities.  After John Cena's stinging promo against him on the WWE Raw programme on March 6, 2023, Theory almost had to win. Cena almost went too far in his criticism of Theory in his promo, claiming that WWE had injected crowd noise into Theory's matches. As Cena famously defeated Theory, Cena also implied that Theory would still fall short when forced to fa...
