Keith Olbermann makes an incredibly crass comment after claiming RFK Jr. wanted to “possess and impregnate” ex Olivia Nuzzi.

Former MSNBC host Keith Olbermann has responded sharply to an explosive court filing from Olivia Nuzzi’s ex that claimed Robert F. Kennedy Jr. wanted to “own,” “control” and “impregnate” her.

Olbermann, who dated Nuzzi a decade ago when she was 21 and he was 55, responded to the New York Post’s story about the claims on X Tuesday night with “same” and the shrug emoji.

In the new filing, Ryan Lizza said his ex-fiancée Nuzzi described RFK as a “70-year-old ‘sex addict’ who told her he wanted to ‘own’, ‘control’ and ‘get her pregnant’.”

She went on to say the affair was “toxic, unhealthy, stupid, psychotic, crazy, indefensible” and claimed that RFK Jr. manipulated her because of the “great power imbalance,” as he stated in the cases filed at the Washington, D.C. Supreme Court court documents filed last week claimed.

Nuzzi’s team has disputed Lizza’s claims and RFK Jr. denied that the documents were an accurate depiction of their sexting encounter.

The TV personality, who hosts the podcast “Countdown with Keith Olbermann,” had tweeted about Nuzzi but only mentioned they were in a relationship after The Post contacted him last month.

He previously said the couple had a “surprisingly mundane” life together from May to December, even getting a dog and tattoos.

Nuzzi, New York Magazine’s star Washington correspondent, reportedly began having sex with Kennedy shortly after introducing the then-independent presidential candidate in the magazine last year.

Sources claim she was the pursuer, although other reports claimed the affair began after Kennedy grabbed her hand as she posed for the profile picture.

She allegedly sent the Kennedy scion “nice photos” and the two even had “incredible” sex over FaceTime, a source exclusively told Page Six – with Nuzzi reporting that Kennedy’s sexual stamina was impressive.

Kennedy previously said he and Nuzzi only met once.

In the latest filing between the disgruntled exes – which came in response to a no-contact order Nuzzi issued against Lizza in which she claimed he harassed and blackmailed her over the affair and hacked her devices – Lizza confronted his former fiancée portrayed as lost and a heartbroken lover who desperately tried to save their engagement after he dumped her.

Lizza, 50, also claimed that this wasn’t the first time Nuzzi had cheated on him – he previously jeopardized a joint book deal over an affair in 2020.

He said he called off their engagement in August after confronting Nuzzi, 31, when he learned she had been dating RFK Jr. for nearly a year, according to the filing.

Lizza – Politico’s chief Washington correspondent who is currently on leave from the wildly popular Playbook newsletter – denied leaking the relationship to Nuzzi’s editor and the press and dismissed her allegations of hacking.

He claimed that everything he learned about the affair with Kennedy came from Nuzzi’s own tearful confessions as she tried to get back together with him, the filing says.

Nuzzi begged Lizza to rekindle the relationship several times after the breakup in desperate text messages in which she claimed to be “so lonely,” “lost” and “heartbroken,” the filing says, but Nuzzi previously claimed this in her statement of claim against Lizza Monat by orchestrating her crash at New York Magazine.

Nuzzi has been on leave from the glossy publication since the affair became public in September.
