Controversial muckraking journalist and former Washington editor for New York Magazine Olivia Nuzzi's online romance with health quack and brain worm host RFK, Jr., last year resulted in her firing, her breakup with finance Ryan Lizza, and serious doubts about RFK. Jr.'s character and judgement. Nuzzi has a tell-all book out, American Canto, scheduled to be released in December, but excerpts have been printed in the press. Some notable bombshells that Nuzzi reveals about the dangerous Health and Human Services Secretary, as reported in The Independent:
"Back in the spotlight after her yearlong self-imposed exile when it was revealed she’d engaged in a secret romance with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Olivia Nuzzi claims in her new memoir that the health secretary wanted her to have his baby and that he uses psychedelic drugs, among other jaw-dropping details.
Nuzzi, who recently joined Vanity Fair as its West Coast correspondent, dished on American Canto – her book that is set to be released next month – and her 'digital affair' with Kennedy in a series of interviews with The New York Times.
Her relationship with Kennedy, which began during the height of the 2024 presidential campaign when the current Trump Secretary of Health and Human Services was running as an independent, ultimately derailed her career. She was fired from her job at New York magazine, and her engagement with journalist Ryan Lizza publicly crumbled. [snip]
Saying that she loved the 71-year-old anti-vaccine activist, Nuzzi notes that she only told Kennedy – who is married to actress Cheryl Hines – 'I love you' after he said it first. She also reveals that Kennedy gave her the nickname 'Livvy' and wrote poems to her. He went so far as to tell her he’d take a bullet for her – and even expressed his desire for her to have his child.
'She writes that the first few times Kennedy said he loved her, she did not say it back,” the New York Times noted. 'Yet she knew she felt the same. "I love him, I thought. Oh no. I love him so much." They spoke often and were intimate enough for her to see him flossing his teeth, his dopp kit overflowing with prescriptions.'
She also insisted that while Kennedy had claimed to be 'sober' for decades, he confided in her that he was taking psychedelics and smoked the powerful drug dimethyltryptamine, or DMT. She, in turn, let him know she took Adderall and 'liked uppers.'” (our emphasis)
RFK, Jr. used heroin for many years, and his second wife Mary Kathleen Richardson committed suicide after years of his infidelity that he recorded in his personal journal. From his actions with Nuzzi, it appears that he hasn't changed and likely has no intention of changing or deceiving people that have trusted him. Despicable.

๐คจ Nuzzi's book might sell well 'cause salacious gossip lickers will want to slurp on it! ๐คข
ReplyDeleteBut, "he uses psychedelic drugs, among other jaw-dropping details" makes me think The Independent has too high an opinion of RFK, Jr.! My jaw stayed perfectly still. It might have dropped if T.I. reported he takes NO dangerous drugs. RFK, Jr. is the epitome of an addictive personality! ๐๐๐ต๐ซ
