Wow, thank you for the video, Scott Manley. This might be coolest thing I've ever heard. A crazy, continuous nuclear reaction rocket that can produce thrusts somewhere between 60-70 km/s and one percent of the speed of light! "Which is probably a good thing, because you don't want a nuclear reaction running up inside your engine plumbing.." I'm not an engineer, but this sounds like good advice. You'd probably want to make sure the exhaust is never pointed at the Earth as well.

There's only so much the magnetic field can do. If you point an extremely high velocity stream of radionuclides right at the Earth that's too much mass and speed to overcome.
