As the husband of White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway, Republican lawyer George Conway is no stranger to facing backlash for his taunts and criticisms of President Donald Trump.

Conway—a founder of the anti-Trump Republican PAC The Lincoln Project—proved that again today when he and conservative leaning radio host Geraldo Rivera exchanged barbs on Twitter.

Like many of Trump's critics, Conway highlighted the President's handling of the virus as an example of his failure to keep the American people safe.

Conway pointed out the stratospheric number of cases and deaths compared to the rest of the world, despite assurances from Trump early in the outbreak that the cases would soon go down to zero.


Conway highlighted the President's musing that ingesting bleach could potentially cure the virus, as well as recent claims he made at his that he urged his officials to slow down testing of the virus because it made him look bad.

For whatever reason, Rivera saw this as rooting for the virus rather than holding the President accountable for his statements and actions.

He let Conway know how he felt in a profane tweet.

Conway didn't hesitate to return the insults.

Geraldo fired back.

As did Conway...


Rivera seems to have relented for now, but Twitter is taking Conway's side.







Geraldo famously hosted a live television special in the 1980s called The Mystery of Al Capone's Vaults, in which the host hyped a finale of opening a long-sealed Capone vault, with the possibility of uncovering Capone's spoils or one of his victims.

In the end, Rivera discovered that the vault only held a few empty bottles.

People couldn't help reminding him of that during his exchange with Conway.




It appears the pair's exchange is over for now.

MAGA Senator Slammed After Scolding Americans For Whining About High Gas Prices Amid Iran War—And Wow

Kansas Republican Senator Roger Marshall chastised Americans for complaining about high gas prices and insisted they should consider that their "national security is even more important" than whatever blows are being dealt to their wallets at the gas pump.

Consumer prices are up 3.3% compared to a year ago, largely fueled by a surge in energy costs. The energy index jumped 10.9% in a single month as oil and gas prices climbed sharply. Amid the Iran war and the U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, oil has risen back to around $100 a barrel, pushing gasoline prices up by a record 25%.

A lot is going on in our world right now that gives us pause, and some of us might feel our hearts breaking under the weight of all of it. That makes acts of kindness, no matter how small they are, more important than ever before.

X user @oatmilkanie shouted out an unidentified child who clearly got the memo when they boarded a plane and discovered that the child had written a note for the next person to sit in their seat, directly on the paper nausea bag that's snuggled in the seat pocket in front of the passenger's knees.

Woman Creeped All The Way Out After Finding Hidden Door In The Ceiling Of Her Airbnb

A lot of us already cannot sleep well when we're visiting someone else's home or staying in a hotel, because we're uncomfortable in a different bed and maybe even a little creeped out in the unusual space.

But discovering a whole other room with a creepy door would quickly transform a space from a rental to something out of a horror movie real quick for anybody.
