Martin Sheen and Dionne Warwick Dispute Claims of Supporting RFK Jr. Fundraiser

Martin Sheen, known for his role as President Bartlet on "The West Wing," has been mistakenly advertised as an attendee for Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s gala, which is part of RFK Jr.'s independent presidential campaign. Sheen, through his former co-stars, has clarified that he does not support RFK Jr. and endorses President Joe Biden instead. The event organizers claimed they had confirmation of Sheen's attendance, but Sheen and singer Dionne Warwick, who was also listed, have both denied involvement. RFK Jr., who has faced criticism from his own family and has controversial views on vaccines, shifted from seeking the Democratic nomination to an independent campaign after alleging DNC primary rigging.
