"One of the things we've learned in the past few days was that Olivia Nuzzi who wrote those very critical pieces about Biden was in fact in a relationship with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. when she wrote them."

"Kennedy is working hard to be a spoiler for Harris, fighting to keep his name on the ballot where it could harm the vice president’s campaign and to remove it where his appearance might hurt Trump. It’s a remarkably shameless ploy for a man who spent his career as an environmental attorney and is now willing to get in bed with a politician who thinks windmills cause cancer and fossil fuels are the future."

RFK Jr's chaos campaign to support Trump

He says he doesn't want to be a spoiler, but he's spoiling pretty hard.

^{Liz Dye (Public Notice)}

Via Brad Moss:

Reminder that Olivia Nuzzi effectively remains shunned right now and is not permitted to do her job in light of the revelation about her messages with RFK.

Meanwhile, RFK is sanewashed and remains able to campaign for Trump without anyone batting an eye.

Via Dem strategist Ally Sammarco:

Crazy things #RFKJr did without prompting:

- Picked up a dead bear and dumped it in Central Park
- Posed with a dead dog carcass
- Admitted to having worms in his brain
- Spread insane anti-vax disinformation
- Said he's "not a Church boy" in response to sexual assault allegations

And RFK Jr’s campaign paid that same firm “millions.” Ratfucking Dems is a good gig.

Robyn Pennacchia comments sarcastically on the Olivia Nuzzi-RFKJr. story:

"Just to be completely open and honest and transparent here — in case you were wondering, absolutely no one at Wonkette has ever communicated sexually, romantically, or otherwise with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., unless you count the many PR emails I have received from his anti-vaccine Children’s Health Defense group over the years, which I do not."

As Doktor Zoom says at Wonkette, yesterday's news cycle brought "just a ridiculous amount of news…. and all of it kind of weird!"

There was the Mark Robinson story (see /1 - /5 above).

There was the news that Olivia Nuzzi of New York Magazine has been put on leave for a previously undisclosed relationship with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as she wrote about him as a political candidate.

Did this affair with a candidate whose campaign was based largely on Biden’s ostensible unfitness for office coincide with her big splashy NYMag piece about Biden’s ostensible unfitness for office?
