The campaign also claimed that the LAPD "took custody" of a second man they allege came to the event with Aispuro, but the LAPD said Saturday they have no information on a second armed suspect.
LAPD remains the lead agency on the case, the station's Watch Commander said earlier.
In July, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and a bipartisan committee rejected a request from Kennedy for Secret Service protection.
Kennedy said at the time that his request "included a 67-page report...detailing unique and well-established security and safety risks aside from commonplace death threats."
Here is the speech Mr. Kennedy delivered at the Hispanic Heritage Month event following the arrest. He is addressing various issues including open border policies, treatment of migrants, housing affordability, corporate dominance in the housing market, financial exploitation by credit card companies, disproportionate allocation of funds, and political corruption. Kennedy criticizes the Biden Administration's open border policies, highlighting the humanitarian crisis created and the cartel's influence.
He emphasizes the exploitative conditions faced by migrants and refugees, the unaffordability of housing, and the rising cost of living. Moreover, he denounces the financial system's exploitation of the middle class and questions the allocation of funds to Ukraine. Kennedy also highlights the tactics used by those in power to distract and divide the American people.

In this section, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. expresses his gratitude to those
who organized the event and acknowledges the presence of Bishop Juan
Mendes and Chris Clem. He references Elon Musk's recent comments about
why he was a lifelong Democrat, emphasizing the Democratic Party's
historical association with kindness. However, RFK Jr. criticizes the
Biden Administration's open border policies, arguing that they have
created a humanitarian crisis. He mentions his experience at the border,
highlighting that many individuals crossing were from Africa, Asia, and
other regions, indicating that they were not necessarily fleeing
oppression but rather seeking work opportunities in the United States.
RFK Jr. further explains that the cartels advertise their services on
social media platforms, providing detailed instructions and charging
individuals thousands of dollars to enter the country. He criticizes the
demoralization of the border patrol, who are instructed to focus on
processing immigrants rather than securing the border.

In this section, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. discusses the treatment of
migrants and refugees coming into the United States. He highlights the
exploitative conditions they face, including extortion, robbery, and
rape at the hands of cartels. Kennedy also criticizes the immigration
court system, which sets court dates seven years in the future, leaving
migrants without legal status or the ability to work legally. As a
result, they are often exploited by unscrupulous employers, leading to
their dependence on social safety systems. Kennedy mentions the impact
on cities like New York, where the refugees are piling up on the
sidewalks and causing significant financial strain. He connects his
father's ally, Cesar Chavez, who advocated for closing the border, as
someone who also saw illegal immigration as a threat to American
workers.
- 00:10:00
In this section, RFK Jr. discusses the issue of illegal labor and its
impact on labor conditions and wages for farm workers. He emphasizes the
need for a different approach towards immigration, advocating for a
balance between strict border control and a simplified path to
citizenship for legal immigrants. RFK Jr. criticizes the current
immigration policies, stating that Mexican drug cartels have influence
over them. He highlights the importance of repairing the relationship
with Mexico and working together to address the immigration problem. RFK
Jr. proposes solutions such as appointing more Asylum Court judges to
expedite the adjudication process and closing the border to prevent
control by drug cartels. Additionally, he suggests waiving passport card
fees to ensure that all Americans have a government-issued picture ID,
which is essential for various activities.
- 00:15:00
In this section of the speech, RFK Jr. addresses the issue of requiring
voter ID and proposes a solution that he believes would benefit both
Democrats and Republicans. He suggests providing free federal
government-issued picture IDs to all citizens, which would eliminate the
need for demanding IDs at the voting booth. This would also address
concerns of voter fraud and reassure both parties. Additionally, RFK Jr.
highlights the problem of employers hiring illegal immigrants and
suggests that requiring a federal photo ID for employment would
discourage this practice and protect American workers. He also touches
on the issue of housing affordability, particularly in Los Angeles,
where many workers cannot afford to live due to high housing prices.
- 00:20:00
In this section, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. discusses the housing crisis in
California and its connection to the high rate of homelessness in the
state. He highlights the disparity between the average housing prices in
Los Angeles and the national average, attributing the skyrocketing
prices to the housing issue. Kennedy argues that the homeless population
in California is primarily native to the state, contradicting the
notion that homeless individuals from other states are migrating to
California. He emphasizes that the root cause of the problem lies in the
unaffordability of housing and warns that this issue may soon spread to
other parts of the country.
- 00:25:00
In this section, RFK Jr. discusses the increasing difficulty for people
to buy homes, with 35% of the population spending more on basic human
needs than their income allows. He attributes this to inflation caused
by wars and lockdowns, but primarily blames three giant corporations -
BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street - for owning 88% of the S&P
500 and now investing in farmland and family homes. He notes that the
younger generation no longer believes in the American dream of
homeownership, as cash offers from these corporations often outbid
individuals and families, making it impossible for them to afford homes.
RFK Jr. warns that within six years, corporations may own 60% of the
homes in the country, leading to an aristocratic model where ordinary
people become serfs on their own land. Additionally, rental prices are
soaring due to these corporate investments, leaving 48% of renters
feeling unable to afford their homes. Overall, RFK Jr. highlights the
dire situation for the middle class and working poor, who are struggling
to keep up with the rising cost of living.
- 00:30:00
In this section of the speech, RFK Jr. criticizes the financial system,
specifically credit card companies and banks, for taking advantage of
the American middle class by imposing high interest rates and fees. He
highlights that these companies, including BlackRock, are strip mining
the wealth and equity from the middle class. RFK Jr. pledges to re-jig
the tax code to make it unprofitable for these companies to exploit
homeowners and promises to create a new class of mortgages at 3%
interest. He explains that the mortgages will be financed through the
issuance of tax-free treasury bills and Uncle Sam will co-sign the
mortgages. Additionally, RFK Jr. mentions allocating the first 500,000
mortgages to teachers and questions the allocation of funds to Ukraine
by comparing it to the proposed mortgage plan.
- 00:35:00
In this section, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. discusses the disproportionate
allocation of funds in the United States. He highlights that the entire
budget for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is only $12 billion per year,
while the US government has spent 12 times that amount in one year on
Ukraine. Kennedy criticizes the prioritization of military and banking
interests over the well-being of working Americans, citing cuts to food
stamps and Medicare as evidence. He also exposes how the money sent to
Ukraine is not actually going to the country but rather to US military
contractors, benefiting American companies. Additionally, Kennedy
reveals that Ukraine is being compelled to sell its valuable farmland,
with the biggest buyer being the same American companies profiting from
the war. He emphasizes that the rulers in power intentionally divide the
American people to distract them from these injustices.
- 00:40:00 In this section, RFK Jr. discusses the tactic of distracting the public by pitting them against each other while those in power carry out their hidden agenda. He emphasizes that while people are busy fighting over various issues, those in power are silently robbing the bank. RFK Jr. also addresses the corruption within the Democratic Party, pointing out that they did the same thing to Bernie Sanders as they are doing to him. He highlights the immense amount of money raised by the party and questions the motivations behind these large donations, suggesting that they are more of an investment rather than acts of patriotism or humanitarianism. RFK Jr. vows to ensure that these donors do not get a good return on their investment.
