Nicole Shanahan Accused of Offering $500K Bribe to Washington Post Reporter

The former vice presidential candidate allegedly sought to uncover sources leaking details about her personal and political life.

Nicole Shanahan, once Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s running mate, allegedly offered a Washington Post journalist $500,000 to reveal sources.
The Washington Post's article details Shanahan's transition from a Democratic supporter to a prominent figure in conservative politics.
Shanahan reportedly attempted the bribe as the newspaper prepared a story on her alleged affair and divorce from Google co-founder Sergey Brin.
Her relationship with Brin, marked by scandal and a substantial divorce settlement, reportedly influenced her political trajectory.
Shanahan has denied aspects of the reporting, criticizing it as politically motivated, but has not provided specific rebuttals.
