During an interview with Breitbart News Daily, Kennedy spoke about the existence of cancel culture and its effects on his wife's career.
Kennedy, the son of political titan Robert F. Kennedy, spoke about the fear and pressure his wife has faced due to his decision to challenge President Joe Biden for the Democrat nomination. When asked whether Hines has experienced anxiety and pressure in Hollywood, Kennedy stated, "Yes. I think that is already happening."
Kennedy did not provide specific details about the alleged job losses, but leftists previously criticized Hines for supporting her husband's campaign. Despite previously criticizing her husband's anti-vaccine advocacy, Hines issued a short statement defending her husband's presidential run, saying, "He is a fearless leader who understands the needs of the American people and has devoted his life fighting for democracy."

Last year, Hines publicly denounced her husband after he made controversial statements about Holocaust victim Anne Frank during a vaccine mandate rally in Washington, D.C. Hines said, "My husband's reference to Anne Frank at a mandate rally in D.C. was reprehensible and insensitive. The atrocities that millions endured during the Holocaust should never be compared to anyone or anything. His opinions are not a reflection of my own."

Transgender activist Charlotte Clymer expressed disappointment with Hines' support of her husband, saying, "Yeaaaah, I held out as long as I could, but I've lost all respect for Cheryl Hines...when even the Kennedy family is refusing to support RFK, Jr.'s bid for office, that's the biggest red flag and the only one you really need."
