Olivia Nuzzi RFK Jr. scandal and a tweet reacting to it.

The RFK Jr. Olivia Nuzzi Affair Scandal reached new levels of comedy yesterday when the New York Post reported that the 70-year-old presidential candidate was considering suing the 31-year-old New York magazine reporter for allegedly "bombarding" him with saucy pictures of herself for months despite his best efforts to block her out of his life.

Elaborate alibi hall of fame

The story comes from Nuzzi and Kennedy's mutual friend Jessica Kraus, who wrote about Nuzzi's strategy on her Substack.

According to Kraus, Nuzzi would send nudes to the politician, causing him to block her. Nuzzi would circumvent the block by telling Kennedy she knew of an imminent hit piece coming out against him. Kennedy would unblock her and then she would "bombard" him again with sexual images.

Kraus writes:

Friends of Kennedy believe Nuzzi set him up. They recount that just two weeks after New York Magazine published her article, she made a flirtatious remark during a phone conversation. In response, Kennedy blocked her number. A few weeks later, Nuzzi emailed him, asking to be unblocked, claiming she had urgent information about a hit piece being prepared against him. He unblocked her for that conversation, but later that night, she sent him a provocative picture, prompting him to block her again.

For most of the next 8 months, Kennedy kept her blocked, except for a few occasions when Nuzzi contacted him from different emails and phone numbers, insisting he unblock her for urgent discussions about an imminent hit piece. Once unblocked, she bombarded him with increasingly pornographic photos and videos that he found difficult to resist. After brief exchanges, he would block her again.


Gavin de Becker, a security expert hired by Kennedy in order to help Kennedy prep a potential legal case against Nuzzi, described Kennedy as being "chased by p--n."

According to Kraus's tale, it sounds like Kennedy was to Nuzzi was like Charlie Brown is to Lucy, only instead of a football, Nuzzi continually yanked away the "hit piece" ruse and caused Kennedy to fall into viewing her nudes.

The tale added another layer of bananas to a story that already involves the ever-controversial Kennedy, a contentious reporter and an age-gap discourse that had social media howling.

Many were ready to meme about the update with templates that were perfectly malleable to the situation.

Nuzzi has denied she was the "aggressor" in the pair's tryst. Nuzzi has since split with ex-fiancé Ryan Lizza, himself a reporter who was the subject of sexual misconduct allegations when he wrote for The New Yorker.
