We don’t use the word “lie” lightly at PolitiFact. Our Lie of the Year looks back at the most significant falsehood that tried to undermine truth in 2023. The 2023 Lie of the Year goes to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s campaign of conspiracy theories. (1/9)

And reportedly is running some fresh polling. Time for a reality check it would seem.
Quick recap of @RobertKennedyJr's week: - Cancelled all of his campaign events - Met with Donald Trump at the RNC - Had dinner with Tucker Carlson - Agreed with Trump saying “We’re gonna win.” - Went to the gym in jeans - Posted about his ravens again

Looks like @RobertKennedyJr's campaign may have broken the law in their efforts to get on the ballot in Florida. A shady campaign behind a shady candidate.
