Hours after the National Marine Fisheries Service confirmed they were investigating Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for allegedly decapitating a dead whale and transporting a portion of its carcass, the former presidential candidate sparked controversy with a very different head: The kind he allegedly didn't get from New York Magazine reporter, Olivia Nuzzi. 

On Thursday evening, the publication stated that the 31-year-old Washington correspondent is on leave after admitting that "she had engaged in a personal relationship with a former subject relevant to the 2024 campaign," one unnamed source later confirmed to be Kennedy. 

Despite Nuzzi's instance that her relationship with Kennedy was not physical amid rumors claiming the pair sexted while they were respectively married and engaged, the Twitterverse threw caution — and libel laws — to the wind, creating some of the funniest memes known to man ... and worm. 

From Larry David's Oppenheimer moment to another 2024 edition of "We Didn't Start the Fire," here are 40 memes and reactions to Kennedy and Nuzzi's alleged affair.
