Former Presidential candidate and now Trump crony RFK Jr is under fire after a resurfaced story appeared to suggest that he illegally collected the dead carcass of a whale.
The Lowdown
First reported way back in 12′, Kennedy ‘s daughter Kick Kennedy detailed to Town and Country magazine a situation where her father allegedly sawed off the head of a dead whale using a chainsaw in Massachussetts. At the time, Kennedy chalked her father’s actions up to his eccentric interest in environmentalism.
Animal rights groups are now calling for federal authorities to investigate to determine if RFK Jr may be in possession of illegally collected wildlife parts. RFK Jr is also facing scrutiny for other animal stories that have surfaced including one involving a dead bear cub.
The news this time comes just days after RFK Jr was named a member of Trump ‘s transition team a position he appears to have been given only after endorsing the convicted felon.
