WASHINGTON (TNND) \u2014 Jack Schlossberg, <\/a>the only grandson of President John Kennedy, did not work a real job for all of 2025.<\/p>\n

Schlossberg<\/a> is running for Congress in New York\u2019s 12th district, so he had to publicly disclose his financial records, revealing that he had \u201cno earned-income\u201d last year.<\/p>\n

Instead the disclosure form, which the Washington Free Beacon first reported,<\/a> showed that Schlossberg\u2019s life in New York City was being bankrolled by four trust funds estimated to be valued between $4.1 million and $11.7 million.<\/p>\n

The 25-page disclosure form covered Schlossberg\u2019s finances from January 2025 to February 2026. Schlossberg\u2019s entire assets are estimated to be valued between $10.5 million to $31.9 million.<\/p>\n

While Schlossberg may not have held a job requiring an I-9 or W-2 form; he listed many \u201cpositions\u201d that he held. For instance, Schlossberg was a \u201cmanaging member\u201d of Squid Island LLC, described on the form as a \u201csocial media political commentary\u201d company valued at $100,000.<\/p>\n

Schlossberg also listed his position as \u201cpolitical correspondent\u201d at Vogue, but a Vogue spokesperson told the Washington Free Beacon that Schlossberg \u201cdid not work with us in 2025.\u201d<\/p>\n

He listed himself as a \u201cmember\u201d of Rory\u2019s Place LLC, a restaurant in California owned by his sister-in-law, and a \u201cmember\u201d of Red Gate LLC, which controls the Martha\u2019s Vineyard estate.<\/p>\n

He owns stocks in Exxon Mobil, Alphabet Inc, and Nvidia. He reported making $1,00,000 in dividends and capital gains in 2025 from his holdings in Nvidia.<\/p>\n

Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY), who Schlossberg is seeking to succeed, previously said he didn\u2019t think the Kennedy scion would be a good candidate.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, there\u2019s nothing particularly good or bad about a Kennedy holding my seat,\u201d Nadler said. \u201cBut the Kennedy, unlike Schlossberg, should be somebody with a record of public service, a record of public accomplishment, and he doesn\u2019t have one.\u201d<\/p>\n
