George Conway Uses Resurfaced RFK Jr. Post To Drag Him After Bizarre Dead Bear Story

Conway used an old post on X from the presidential candidate to make the perfect bear pun after RFK Jr. admitted to dumping the body of a dead bear cub in Central Park in 2014.

Conservative attorney George Conway used an old post on X, formerly Twitter, to mock Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is facing heavy criticism after admitting that in 2014 he found a dead bear cub on the road and then bizarrely placed it in New York City's Central Park to make it look like it had been hit by a bicycle.

Kennedy revealed to MAGA actor Roseanne Barr that he and some friends were responsible for dumping the bear cub after finding it dead. He said "people were drinking with me who thought [it] was a good idea" to stage an accident. He claimed the idea came to him at the time because he was running late for another engagement.


Kennedy's admission was published to his personal X account in a dig at The New Yorker, saying the story "stayed dead for a decade" before it came to the attention of the publication, which did publish an article that revisited the bear incident.

You can hear what Kennedy said in the video below.

Conway soon decided to poke fun at Kennedy, resurfacing an old post in which Kennedy asked his followers:

“What issues are important to you in this presidential election?”

Conway displayed some quick wit with the following response:

“The right to arm bears?”

You can see his post below.

The jokes wrote themselves as people joined Conway in piling on Kennedy.


Kennedy's act may have violated state law, which carries a fine of up to $250. However, the statute of limitations for this law expired after one year, according to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC). This agency led the 2014 investigation into how the bear cub carcass ended up in Central Park.

The agency said that it “led the 2014 investigation and forensic analysis into the Central Park bear cub and concluded the bear died from blunt-force trauma consistent with a high-speed collision.” It said the investigation closed later that year due to “a lack of sufficient evidence to determine if violations occurred."

It added that state law “includes offenses such as illegal possession of a bear without a tag or permit and illegal disposal of a bear."

CNN, which covered NYSDEC's response to Kennedy's latest scandal, reported that his campaign did not respond to requests for comment.

Newsmax Host Epically Blasted For His Hypocrisy After Defending Trump's Profane Easter Tweet

Newsmax host Greg Kelly defended President Donald Trump's use of profanity in his Easter morning threat to Iran, prompting critics to resurface one of his own past tweets calling for a ban on use of the f-word.

Trump lashed out at Iran amid growing concerns about tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow passage at the entrance to the Persian Gulf that carries roughly 20% of the world’s oil supply. Recently, Iran has struck several vessels in the area and warned ships against entering the passage, effectively halting traffic through one of the world’s most crucial energy routes.

At least two Republican politicians are facing criticism after they fell for a clearly A.I.-generated photo of the rescue of two U.S. airmen whose fighter jet went down in Iran over the weekend.

U.S. special forces rescued the second crew member of an F-15 fighter jet shot down over Iran, according to three U.S. officials cited by Axios. The crew member, a weapons systems officer, was wounded after ejecting from the aircraft Friday but was able to walk and evaded capture in the mountains for more than a day.
