A federal judge on Wednesday rejected a request from Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to temporarily bar Google from removing videos of him from YouTube based on its medical misinformation policies.

U.S. District Judge Trina Thompson found that Kennedy’s case against Google and its subsidiary YouTube is unlikely to succeed because the companies are not state actors and, as a result, can’t be held responsible for abridging his speech.

      He’s a Democrat like your crazy great aunt who keeps ranting about how things were better under President Kennedy and who hasn’t voted for a Democrat since Nixon and who keeps posting insane misinformation on Facebook is a Democrat. I’ve met people like that, RFK will appeal to them. And siphon votes off from the Republicans.
