Robert F Kennedy Jr has said that he is being investigated by federal authorities for collecting the head from a decapitated whale carcass.
During a campaign event on Saturday for the Republican nominee, Donald Trump, in Glendale, Arizona, the former independent presidential candidate said: “I received a letter from the National Marine Fisheries Institute saying that they were investigating me for collecting a whale specimen 20 years ago.”
He added: “This is all about the weaponization of our government against political opponents.”
Kennedy, who endorsed the former president after dropping out of November’s election, fell under scrutiny in recent weeks after the resurfacing of a 2012 interview that his daughter Kick gave to Town & Country in which she addressed the whale in question.
Recounting how the creature washed up on a beach near Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, she said: “[He] ran down to the beach with a chainsaw, cut off the whale’s head and then bungee-corded it to the roof of the family minivan for the five-hour haul back to Mount Kisco, New York.

Must have been an interesting sight to the other drivers..
He’s got a thing for dead animals. He should have put the whale head in Central Park too.
I want to know what happened once they got it home
20 years ago? Only the current regime would pull such a stunt.
RFK Jr has an annoying, rather disturbing habit (compulsion?) of walking into rakes. One inadvertent piece of self sabotage after the other. He probably brought the beheaded whale topic up on his own.
Why?
I suspect if a dead whale was rotting away on a certain beach in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, it would get cut up and removed.
They are going after Tulsi.
They are going after Musk
Now they are going after RFK Jr.
It is more than clear our gov't has become totally fascist.
Maybe they can change the statute of limitations, again?
Actually it was his daughter’s interview.
If that crazy woman wins they will be coming after all of us. We see the proof right in front of us.
“Why?”
Ask a taxidermist or look at the buck heads above fireplaces in 19th Century mansions.
If you own seashore property, you might want a whale head for similar purposes.
“The power I have as a prosecutor is that with the swipe of my pen, I can charge someone with a misdemeanor. The lowest level offense possible. And by virtue of that swipe of my pen, you will have to go to a courthouse and stand in line, you will have to come out of pocket and hire an attorney, you may get arrested for a few hours, you will be embarrassed in your community, you will miss time from coming onto the Google campus, all because with the swipe of my pen I charged you with a crime, which I may choose to dismiss two weeks later. It’s an incredible amount of power.”
Well, at least it wasn't a dog..................
Cant find one picture of a mounted taxidermy whale head.
Sounds like the National Marine Fisheries Institute has been weaponized by the DemonRATS. Twenty years ago?
He should have used the government’s preferred method of whale carcass removal, dynamite.
