Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. expressed support for full-term abortions during a recent interview with podcast hostess Sage Steele.
Kennedy is a self-professed Catholic.
On Wednesday’s episode of her show, Steele asked Kennedy if he preferred leaving abortion “up to the states.”
“No, I wouldn’t leave it to the states,” the candidate answered. I believe we should leave it to the woman. We shouldn’t have [the] government involved.”
“Even if it’s full-term?” Steele asked.
“Even if it’s full-term,” Kennedy agreed.
Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk on Thursday posted a clip of the interview to X (formerly Twitter). “Here is RFK Jr. affirming his commitment to China-style full-term abortion, without limits, nationwide,” Kirk wrote.

Pro-life advocate Anna Lulis called Kennedy’s pro-abortion remarks “Absolutely evil.”
“Robert Kennedy Jr. believes you can kill babies up until the moment of birth, when they’re fully developed, can feel pain, survive outside the womb, can hiccup, have a heartbeat, fingers, toes, and fully functioning organs,” Lulis wrote on X. “[L]ate-term abortions involve dismembering a baby alive. The baby can feel their limbs being torn from their body.”
Kennedy’s comments even drew criticism from the political left.
Democratic Party activist Ed Krassenstein wrote on X, “I don’t think most Americans, including Democrats support abortions at 40 week.”
