Happening Now: RFK Jr. speaks amid speculation he'll drop out of presidential race

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is slated to deliver remarks in Phoenix on Friday amid speculation he will drop out of the 2024 presidential race.

Kennedy late Thursday filed paperwork to remove himself from the Arizona ballot and the former Democrat-turned independent has reportedly considered endorsing former President Trump's campaign.

The event is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. EDT.
