RFK's alleged sexting partner splits with another publication amid scandal-ridden book release

Olivia Nuzzi's fall from grace continues as she parts ways with another magazine. Once a rising star in the journalism world, Nuzzi was first fired from the New Yorker in 2024 after news broke of her alleged sexting with then-presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., breaking the most basic forms of journalistic ethics and collapsing her engagement to then-Politico reporter Ryan Lizza. Nuzzi was later picked up by Vanity Fair to be West Coast editor. The overlapping narratives inevitably caused a media firestorm.Nearly a year later, the scandal has resurfaced after Nuzzi announced the release of her book "American Canto," which apparently details her alleged behavior with Kennedy but refers to him only as "the politician." In the aftermath of the renewed interest in and attention to the scandal, Nuzzi and Vanity Fair "have agreed to part ways," according to the Wall Street Journal. RELATED: Trump calls New York Magazine's Olivia Nuzzi an 'unattractive wack job' Photo by Paul Morigi/Getty Images for HBONuzzi's attempt at a comeback tour was met with a series of bombshell exposés written by her former fiancé, who began his career as an independent journalist following the scandal. Lizza detailed in his Substack series how he found out about Nuzzi's alleged sexting not just with Kennedy in 2024, but also with former presidential candidate Mark Sanford in 2020. Lizza went on to detail a toxic dynamic between Nuzzi and Kennedy, including graphic details about their sexual proclivities and the intense betrayal, while she insisted that the relationship was merely a "digital" one. Despite the overwhelming evidence and multiple accounts of the behavior, Kennedy has denied the allegations. RELATED: What the mainstream media’s outrage over RFK Jr.’s 'affair' is REALLY about Photo by Kevin Dietsch/Getty ImagesThe overlapping narratives inevitably caused a media firestorm, but it may not have translated into monetary success for Nuzzi's new book.Since its release on December 2, "American Canto" sat at No. 5,546 on Amazon's best-seller list and at No. 3,059 in the Kindle store. Despite the onslaught of media attention, the supposedly "mesmerizing firsthand account of the warping of American reality over the past decade" is currently sitting at a brutal 1.69-star rating on Goodreads.

Democrat claims she was pepper-sprayed by ICE — but her video and DHS say otherwise

A Democratic U.S. representative appeared to undermine her own accusations against federal agents when she posted a video of herself claiming to have been pepper-sprayed at a protest.The newly sworn-in Rep. Adelita Grijalva of Arizona said that Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials pepper-sprayed her during a raid at a taco restaurant in Tucson on Friday.'If her claims were true, this would be a medical marvel. But they're not true. She wasn't pepper sprayed.'"ICE just conducted a raid by Taco Giro in Tucson — a small mom-and-pop restaurant that has served our community for years," reads a post from the politician. "When I presented myself as a Member of Congress asking for more information, I was pushed-aside and pepper sprayed."She said in the video that there had been about 40 agents in vehicles, most of them masked, but that the community stopped them. She claimed she and her staffers were pepper-sprayed and she was pushed, despite identifying herself as a member of Congress."While I am fine, if that is the way they treat me, how are they treating other community members who do not have the same privileges and protections that I do?" she added.Many on social media pointed out that she didn't have the appearance of someone who had been pepper-sprayed.Tricia McLaughlin, an assistant secretary for the Department of Homeland Security, gave a spirited response to the Democrat's claims."If her claims were true, this would be a medical marvel. But they're not true. She wasn't pepper sprayed. She was in the vicinity of someone who *was* pepper sprayed as they were obstructing and assaulting law enforcement," McLaughlin wrote.She went on to say that two agents were seriously injured by the mob that Grijalva joined.RELATED: Church worker pretended to be ICE agent to extort $500 from massage therapist, police say "Presenting one's self as a 'Member of Congress' doesn't give you the right to obstruct law enforcement," McLaughlin added.Grijalva said she happened to be getting lunch at the taco place when the raid operation began. She coughed once in the video and said it was because of the pepper spray. Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox.

Scientists Able To See Preserved Dinosaur Embryos Inside 200-Million-Year-Old Eggs

Kimberley ChapelleThis unprecedented image has allowed researchers to see inside dinosaur eggs like never before. Scientists used a stadium-sized particle accelerator to scan 200-million-year-old dinosaur fossils — and then created 3D reconstructions of the skulls of baby dinosaur embryos. According to IFL Science, the results of the remarkably detailed scans and 3D reproduction have offered unprecedented insight into how young dinosaurs developed. The fossilized dinosaur eggs were discovered in South Africa’s Golden Gate Highlands National Park in 1976. The six-egg cluster contained fossilized embryos, which belonged to a bipedal herbivore species known as Massospondylus carinatus dating back 200 million years. While this species grew as long as 16 feet, these embryos seem to have been fossilized at around two-thirds of their incubation period. They’re so tiny that the dinosaur skulls measured less than 0.8 inches long — with their teeth shorter than 0.04 inches. Scientists were able to deduce that dinosaur embryo development was remarkably close to that of their living relatives, from crocodiles and lizards to turtles and chickens. According to Phys, these tiny embryos have historically proven fairly useless due to their fragility and size. Brett EloffThe fossils in question are some of the oldest known dinosaur eggs and embryos ever discovered. In 2015, however, Chapelle and colleague Jonah Choiniere transported their find to the French facility and managed to get them thoroughly scanned. The sophisticated process left researchers with nearly three years of data to process back at the university lab. The international team of researchers used the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble to create the imagery. The installation’s 2,769-foot-long ring of electrons was accelerated near light speed — emitting such powerful X-ray beams that the scans showed individual bone cells. “A synchrotron has several advantages over a laboratory CT scanner,” said Kimberley Chapelle, PhD, author of the study published in the Scientific Reports journal and vertebrate paleontologist at the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa. “For example, a synchrotron source is one hundred billion times brighter than a hospital X-ray source. Secondly, properties of the synchrotron radiation also make it thousands of times more sensitive to density contrast, meaning that it makes it much easier to differentiate bones from the encasing rock matrix.” “No lab CT scanner in the world can generate these kinds of data,” explained Vincent Fernandez, co-author of the study and scientist at the Natural History Museum in London. “Only with a huge facility like the ESRF can we unlock the hidden potential of our most exciting fossils.” Researchers were thrilled to find each embryo had two distinct sets of teeth. One consisted of triangular teeth likely to be absorbed or shed before hatching — like the baby teeth of modern-day geckos or crocodiles. The other was similar to those of adult dinosaurs, likely the teeth they’d hatch with. “I was really surprised to find that these embryos not only had teeth, but had two types of teeth,” said Chapelle. “The teeth are so tiny; they range from 0.4 to 0.7 mm wide. That’s smaller than the tip of a toothpick.” As it stands, the team aims to use the same process on other dinosaur embryos to get an even clearer picture of their development. Currently, the goal is to analyze the rest of this six-egg cluster — with the scanned arms and legs already proving that Massospondylus hatchlings walked on two legs. “It’s incredible that in more than 250 million years of reptile evolution, the way the skull develops in the egg remains more or less the same,” said Choiniere. “Goes to show — you don’t mess with a good thing.” After learning about these 200-million-year-old baby dinosaur embryo fossils, read about the Nodosaur dinosaur “mummy” discovered with its guts intact. Then, learn about the fossilized dinosaur-like “sea serpent” found with a baby in its belly.

A Previously Unseen Renoir Painting Of The Artist’s Son Just Sold For $2 Million At Auction

DrouotL’enfant et ses jouets—Gabrielle et le fils de l’artiste, Jean (The Child and His Toys—Gabrielle and the Artist’s Son, Jean), by Pierre-Auguste Renoir. A rediscovered Pierre-Auguste Renoir painting was exhibited for the first time in November 2025, later selling for $2 million at auction. The painting, L’enfant et ses jouets—Gabrielle et le fils de l’artiste, Jean (The Child and His Toys—Gabrielle and the Artist’s Son, Jean), depicts Renoir’s young son Jean playing with toys alongside his nanny, Gabrielle Renard. The oil painting spent decades in private hands before going to auction, and the artwork was virtually unknown to the wider public for over a century. The previously unseen artwork sold to an unnamed “international buyer” at Joron-Derem’s Tableaux Modernes sale at the Hôtel Drouot in Paris. Pierre-Auguste Renoir’s Rediscovered Painting Was In Remarkable Condition Wikimedia CommonsPierre-Auguste Renoir, pictured in 1910. Despite its age and its recent rediscovery, L’enfant et ses jouets—Gabrielle et le fils de l’artiste, Jean (The Child and His Toys—Gabrielle and the Artist’s Son, Jean) required no restoration before it went up for auction. “We were particularly surprised by how fresh the painting was,” art historian and Renoir expert Pascal Perrin told PBS. “In other words, it is a painting that has retained all of its colors perfectly, which has not been re-canvassed, retouched, or revarnished.” The artwork was painted sometime in the 1890s and completed before 1910. It features a heartwarming scene between the artist’s second son, Jean Renoir, and his nanny, Gabrielle Renard, as they play with toys together. The painting shows the pair’s close relationship, as she was apparently able to keep the young child content for long enough to pose for the painting. “It is exceptional because, first of all, it is a masterclass of intimacy. We see this very tender relationship between Jean and Gabrielle, who knows how to control the child so that Renoir can paint him,” auctioneer Christophe Joron-Derem explained. After the painting was completed, Pierre-Auguste Renoir gave it to Jeanne Baudot, a close family friend and student of Renoir’s (who was also Jean’s godmother). She later passed the artwork down to her son Jean Griot. Griot displayed the piece in his bedroom until his death in 2011. A Story Beyond Renoir’s Rarely-Seen Painting Wikimedia CommonsThe child in the painting, Jean Renoir, went on to become a successful filmmaker. Gabrielle Renard played an important role in young Jean Renoir’s life, taking him to Guignol puppet shows in Montmartre. The boy would later grow up to become a respected filmmaker, and he specifically cited those puppet shows as being particularly influential to his early artistry. Jean Renoir made a number of impressive movies throughout his career, and his film La Grande Illusion (1937) was the first foreign-language movie to receive an Academy Award nomination for Best Picture. He later earned a Lifetime Achievement Academy Award in 1975. Through it all, the filmmaker never forgot the heartwarming experience of being painted by his father when he was younger. “When I was very small, three, four, or five years old, he didn’t choose the pose himself, but took advantage of some activity that seemed to keep me quiet,” Jean Renoir recalled before his death in 1979. Pierre-Auguste Renoir’s strong familiarity with some of his subjects had an incredible impact on his work. Indeed, the close relationships between the subjects and the artist come through in the rediscovered painting. “Time truly stands still: you can see that Jean is truly enjoying himself, and the painter is enjoying painting him,” Pascal Perrin told Artnet. Though the newly rediscovered painting is valuable, it’s certainly not the most expensive of Renoir’s works to sell at auction. That title goes to his Au Moulin de la Galette, which sold for $78.1 million in 1990. More recently, another one of his works exceeded price estimations, with Renoir’s Berthe Morisot et sa fille, Julie Manet selling for $24.5 million in 2022. Next, read about the painting found in a Connecticut barn that sold at auction for $7 million. Then, learn about the Gustav Klimt portrait of Elisabeth Lederer that recently became the second most expensive painting to ever sell at auction.

Ancient Roman Mosaic Found In England Depicts A ‘Long-Lost’ Version Of The Trojan War

Ancient Roman Mosaic Found In England Depicts A ‘Long-Lost’ Version Of The Trojan War

University of Leicester Archaeological ServicesThis panel from the Ketton mosaic depicts the ransom of Prince Hector’s body. Archaeologists have determined that the celebrated Roman mosaic discovered in Rutland, England in 2020 depicts a “long-lost” version of the Trojan War myth. This stunning piece, known as the Ketton mosaic, has been described as one of the most remarkable discoveries in the country over the last century. But when it was first uncovered, archaeologists believed that its scenes of the Trojan War were taken from Homer’s Iliad. This famous Greek poem written circa the 8th century B.C.E. has long since become the most well-known telling of the Trojan War legend. However, researchers have recently discovered that the Ketton mosaic features a forgotten alternate telling of this epic tale of war by the Greek playwright Aeschylus that was popular in antiquity before becoming lost to history. This revelation also suggests that Roman Britain was more in touch with the wider world of the ancient Mediterranean than experts previously thought. The Discovery Of An Alternate Trojan War Narrative In The Ketton Mosaic University of Leicester Archaeological ServicesThe complete Ketton mosaic, found in Rutland in 2020. The Ketton mosaic was first uncovered in 2020 during the COVID-19 lockdown by Jim Irvine, a local resident. The English farmer happened upon the mosaic while on a walk through one of his fields. The discovery then led to major excavations by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services. Archaeologists determined that the mosaic dated back about 1,800 years. Its three panels tell a portion of the Trojan War story. The first panel depicts the Greek hero Achilles battling Hector, the prince of Troy. The second panel shows Achilles triumph in their duel, as he drags Hector’s body behind his chariot while Hector’s father, King Priam, pleads for mercy. Finally, the third panel shows Hector’s body being weighed alongside a mound of gold, the ransom that Priam will pay to Achilles in exchange for the return of the corpse. Peterborough ArchaeologyThe first panel of the Ketton mosaic, depicting the battle between Achilles and Prince Hector. Initially, archaeologists concluded that the panels drew from Homer’s Iliad, the most famous telling of the Trojan War today. However, a new study published in the journal Brittania determined that the mosaic actually features scenes from the Aeschylus play Phrygians, which features an alternate telling of the Trojan War myth. While that play has long since been lost to history, the ancient Romans certainly would’ve been familiar with it. In fact, the Rutland villa’s elite owner would have relished having a relatively rare depiction of the Trojan War in their home. In this version, when Priam visits Achilles to retrieve the body of Hector, the king uses a massive scale to give Achilles a mound of gold equal to the weight of his son in exchange for the corpse. In Homer’s version, on the other hand, a ransom is still exchanged for Hector’s body, but it’s not a portion of gold the same weight as the corpse. What’s more, Phrygians is likely not the only source material for the Ketton mosaic. Experts believe that the first panel may have come from the design on a Greek pot from the time of Aeschylus. “Once I’d noticed the use of standard patterns in one panel, I found other parts of the mosaic were based on designs that we can see in much older silverware, coins and pottery, from Greece, Turkey, and Gaul,” lead author of the study, Jane Masséglia, said in a statement from the University of Leicester. The Connection Between Roman Britain And The Ancient Mediterranean University of Leicester Archaeological ServicesThe second panel of the mosaic, rendering the dragging of Hector’s body by Achilles, takes its design from a Greek pot. Aeschylus’ play popularized this alternative telling of the Trojan War throughout the Greek world. Moreover, the use of imagery from this play, as well as designs taken from other Mediterranean countries, show that a diverse mix of classical culture spread even to the far reaches of the Roman world in Britain. “Romano-British craftspeople weren’t isolated from the rest of the ancient world, but were part of this wider network of trades passing their pattern catalogues down the generations,” Masséglia explained. “At Ketton, we’ve got Roman British craftsmanship but a Mediterranean heritage of design.” The mosaic panels, which once made up the floor of the Rutland villa’s dining room, were inspired by art and myth from across the ancient Mediterranean. As Jim Irvine put it, the new research “reveals a level of cultural integration across the Roman world that we’re only just beginning to appreciate.” Now, there’s only more to discover at the Ketton mosaic site. Post-Excavation Coordinator Rachel Cubitt said that the new research “brings an added dimension” to the other projects being conducted at the site. “This fascinating new research offers a more nuanced picture of the interests and influences of those who may have lived there, and of people living across Roman Britain at this time,” Cubitt said. After reading about the Ketton mosaic, dive into the historical debate surrounding the Trojan horse. Then, learn about the Greek gods and goddesses of ancient mythology.
