Megyn Kelly | All-In Summit 2024
966 segments
well Megan Kelly looks to be parting
ways with NBC her show is now cancelled
Megan Kelly just landed a new gig why
would she given a platform in the first
place we're doing this program because
we believe there's an urgent need for
independent voices in the media
landscape I know the audience you have I
can reasonably guess it it's
enormous podcast Rumble YouTube Twitter
with Elon that's the problem a lot of
people in cable news Megan are fighting
yesterday's War they're not the problem
now you're the problem ladies and
Gentlemen please welcome Megan
Kelly kid great to see you thank you for
coming hi thanks for being here all
right Hi Megan how are nice to see you
hey Megan did you get to hear Peter teal
Megan I did just the tail end just a bit
what do you think of Peter he's
brilliant yeah yeah I mean thank God for
him right it's like there's a few guys
in Tech with a lot of money keeping
Republican candidates alive and we need
every single one of
them go he starting early um I think all
of them were here today
um
[Applause]
um you seem incredibly uh happy as an
independent broadcaster and running your
own show maybe uh number one am I right
that you're just just absolutely engaged
and excited again about broadcasting
because it seemed like the tail end of
your working for the machine was
particularly challenging oh yeah tell us
that's a polite way of saying it I'm
trying to be polite no it's fine yeah
you are well the last time you kind of
blew remember when you called him a
prick on on TV I do I do it was it was
good natured it was good um yeah no I'm
so I'm so much happier and it's really
changed my whole view on on cancel
culture you know I really I'm a Believer
in cancel culture now I think it
separates individuals from companies
where they do not belong where the
values are not aligned and I really
can't
imagine being right now at NBC or
frankly at Fox News in this environment
and having to comport with their rules
on how we talk about these very dicey
issues that are all over the news today
I I could not do it it was just a matter
of time before I was cancelled yeah talk
about producing a show now that is the
largest you're now the largest
broadcaster in in the news category on
YouTube crushing everybody else CNN Fox
their YouTube channels uh now bow down
before you and you are an independent
company with I understand six people
yeah um six producers six producers um
so that is how many people at the peak
NBC Fox did you have working in your
group well I probably had about 15
producers but Fox is always lean CNN
Anderson Cooper show which was you know
across from us for a while minus one
hour had something like 100 staffers so
think about it so we did not in July we
did not beat CNN but we had two-thirds
of CNN's YouTube audience two-thirds
every single Dollar in the multi-billion
dollar CNN audience went into obviously
their live broadcasts which we Crush we
Crush their numbers you know dollar to
dollar in terms of like the podcast and
so on but let's just look at YouTube so
all those resources go into their
YouTube feed as well and it's got every
show on CNN every single talent and our
one show with my six producers crushed
the well came close to crushing them all
and did Crush CBS and NBC which was a
particularly
nice when you
left my understanding of these deals
when Tucker left on Lemon um and you
leave those broadcast ones it's kind of
like they're paying you to not compete
you can't go work for another Network so
were you was that the case with you if
you can say it and and then you were
kind of forced to become an independent
broadcaster I wasn't forced I was only
forced to have my show end at NBC and
beyond that I don't think I'm at Liberty
to speak of the specifics but um I was
free to get another job I just wasn't
sure I would there was a couple of years
there that were dark and depressing and
my industry is incredibly disgusting and
toxic and awful perhaps you've watched
the news and you know um and I just sat
on the couch thinking why would I go
back into that that was terrible and it
makes you a bad person and unhappy and
all they do is stimulate outrage all the
time and then get rich off of it and you
have to push somebody else's agenda and
I don't want to do any of that and it
wasn't until the first the pandemic hit
and then you know we started to lose our
minds on all the mandates and then
George Floyd and then we really lost our
minds and seeing those people in the
streets trying to make people put down
their burgers and say black lives matter
is when I got up off my couch and said
now it's on like I I can't stand when
people make me do things I really I
can't stand bullies and it's in my DNA
to stand up against them and so I had to
get back on the air and I said to my
therapist who is really
underpaid
um what if nobody watches you know what
if nobody listens it was just a podcast
at the time no Visual and uh he's from
South Africa and he said well I'll
listen I said okay great he said and
Doug will listen my husband I'm like
well I got two and that was four years
ago and now it's going great how has
your approach changed if at all in terms
of what you want to produce and what
conversations you want to have because
you no longer have to think well what
does Roger ell's think or this NBC
person or or everybody in between you
you actually the buck stops at your desk
at your microphone you're the decider
now so how what what is your framework
for deciding what to put on there
because you do also now um suffer from
hey you're in YouTube if it bleeds it's
lead leads if it has rage associated
with it it's going to get more clicks so
how do you mitigate that you know well I
I love my producers and a few of them
have been with me for over 10 years 15
years plus from Fox News from the
earliest show I ever did in 2007 to now
so they know me very well and they know
what lights my fire and if I feel that
fire in the belly does it's usually not
outraged it's just fire in the belly
over the news then it's a good story for
me and that differs host to host you
know what what drives you nuts what what
do you need to have your say on and so
for me speaking of therapists it's like
therapy to go out there on the set and
say what I know is true right just say
what's true about the news and then we
can argue about the meaning and our
opinions on what's true but what's true
should not be so Up For Debate um but
yeah I have a few through lines that my
team always knows will get me excited
and since the beginning Free Speech has
been one of them and the thing about the
cops it's not coincidental that that's
what got me up because I've been at Fox
you know 14 years I was there and I have
a brother who's a police officer he's a
retired lieutenant and one of the most
Honorable Men you'll ever meet in your
life and I am just so sick and have been
so sick of the lies that have been told
about cops it's brutal we have law
enforcement in my family as well and
it's really hard to watch this yeah yes
it's so egregious this is is not to
excuse the few bad apples that you see
on the news but they are so not
representative of your average police
officer absolutely not and it's these
guys make no money you know they they
don't get a lot of Glory they risk their
lives they risk their lives every day
for us right and now on top of all that
they're treated like absolute by
everyone the news media absolutely no
qualms about ruining these guys' lives
before any due process and that's what
the media has been doing with everyone
in the past five years no due process
you are you're accused of anything
you're guilty and there's really no
Jones to figure out whether it's fair
and so you know given my legal
background because I practiced law for a
decade that's another piece of it that
always gets me fired up somebody being
unfairly railroaded I think the topic
you've been most on fire and I think
it's very brave is the issues around uh
trans issues trans rights and maybe
young children um you're not a bigot but
you're being framed as that when this
discussion comes up maybe you could
explain just what is your position
on biological men in locker
rooms you know and and maybe kids
receiving hormones or having their
bodies mutilated because they maybe feel
like they're the opposite gender I don't
want to lead the witness here but I
think we're more in sync on this issue
than maybe most yeah I don't care what
they call me they can call me a bigot a
Turf a trans misogynist which is not a
thing
um I will speak truth men cannot become
women
period women can't become men either and
men and boys do not belong in women's
spaces whether it's a bathroom a locker
room or a sports event they
don't and good men do not wish to access
those
places and by the way even if you have
some empathy for someone who's genuinely
struggling the problem is the camel's
knows because as soon as you allow one
person who may be genuinely struggling
with this issue into your 17-year-old
girl's locker room that opportunity will
be exploited by openly Bad actors and
when girls start getting hurt in these
private spaces as they already have been
listen to Riley gain's testimonial about
what happened to her with Leah Thomas
about how he was in there he was looking
at her she was naked she had no idea an
intact male was entering her locker room
the humiliation she felt that counts as
injury but we could go well beyond that
because it's crossed over to actual
physical so I am willing to fight to my
dying day against that without judging
trans people themselves what you do in
the privacy of your own home or your own
life is your business not mine unless
you make it my business and then you
will hear from me and if you make it my
child's business times 10 and in your
answer is empathy for somebody who is
suffering from gender dysmorphia and and
who's struggling with that issue uh um
and you don't have a problem with those
individuals as you said two or three
times in that one answer yet you could
give that disclaimer you could say you
have empathy or sympathy for them and
the only thing they're going to hear is
you know something they project into it
so it got a lot easier for me on the
name calling in response to this issue
once I realized the vast majority of
people who want to call me a bigot or a
Turf are men they are men posing as
women so these are men trying to shame
me out of standing up for my daughter
and myself and my fellow women on our
safe spaces it's that's the end of it
they can take a seat because these men
don't know the first thing they're
showing up for at for mammograms you
ladies know what it's like the older
ones like me sitting in the mamogram
office where you're out there waiting to
go in and you're in your little robe and
you're worried you're nervous you got to
do it when you hit a certain age you're
but you're you know what you're there
for you guys have it on the other end um
you're like I I hope I don't have cancer
they say I need to go here I got to find
it early you're sitting looking at other
women and now we're having men men sneak
in there not because they're actually
worried because a very very small
percentage can get but because they want
to feel like women same thing at the
OBGYN get out get out of our spaces I'm
sick of this what I have
empathy for is us women and girls
somebody else can worry about the
feelings of the men who want to access
have can I
um do you think that there are
individuals who have been historically
repressed
and have now felt the freedom to come
out and say that they are a different
gender or do you think that there's
something else socially going on what's
what's what's going on and and you know
why do you think that this has become
such a prominent issue of late in the
last couple of years yes 100% it has
exploded as a social contagion and
that's been documented by many people
from very smart woman at Brown to
Abigail shrier and her mustre book
irreversible damage and Beyond uh but
this is a social contag this is not
populating in the way that it is just
because we're more accepting now and if
that were true you would see it
everywhere um but what you're seeing it
is more concentrated in more leftist
States cities regions and that's because
the more of it kids are exposed to the
more they gravitate toward it and in
that way it is like anorexia I just had
Kelly J Kee in a pre-tape show today
she's airing tomorrow she's an activist
on this issue and she was saying if you
go on YouTube and you Google anorexia or
bulimia they won't show you the videos
but if you Google top surgery which is
the super sweet way of saying a double
myectomy usually for 15 or 14 year old
girls you can see all you want all day
long and what's happening more and more
is autistic children or children
someplace on the
Spectrum stumble on to this and in many
cases have obsessive thinking to begin
with and go down a rabbit hole that
takes them hours on end down Reddit or
one of these other websites sites and it
does become an obsessive thought and
then obsessive behavior and then you
have a medical community that has
submitted to affirm the standard is
affirm not are your parents going
through a divorce did you have really
bad grades was there a sexual assault in
your past which is so often the case for
a lot of the young girls in particular
no you're not even allowed to go there
or you're considered engaging in
conversion therapy it's crossover that's
it puberty blockers cross- seex hormones
those two things alone in that order
high high likelihood you are sterile you
are sterilizing yourself and your
parents are allowing it just puberty
blockers into to cross- seex hormones
that's it never mind chopping off body
parts and then they'll go to school and
they'll say I'm no longer a girl and the
school will hide it from the people who
love that child most their parents if
the parents aren't on the affirm
board in New York City where I fled with
my children because they were trying to
do this to our schools and our classes
that's the that's the policy private and
public you do not tell the parents it's
a secret what kind of country are we
getting to be where we allow secrets
between grown teachers and minors that
the parents aren't allowed to know
that's what we used to call
grooming right it opens up a very
dangerous
door and why has this become politicized
and how has it become politicized that I
don't understand I don't understand how
frankly anyone can vote Democrat right
now I just don't get it I know that
there's a priority of issues right and
for some people
it's oh David's here he just woke
up for some people s or democrat
what it's abortion or it's uh you know I
can't think of the issues that would
make you vote Democrat even though I
used to vote Democrat I'm a registered
independent I voted in eight
presidential elections I voted Democrat
four times and Republican four I'm about
as independent as you can get well let
me can we let's shift gears to the
election then so um yeah you piak his
interest I didn't think that was going
to be funny but so Megan I mean in
addition to being a great broadcaster
you actually are a great uh political
pundit I would say and prognosticator I
remember being on your show at the
beginning of the Republican primary when
DeSantis was riding High making the case
for DeSantis obviously that was totally
wrong and you're like no you know like
it's going to be Trump you know the
Republican part is not done with Trump
and you were exactly right
um do you what's your take on where
things are at right now and do you do
you have a take on who's going to win I
mean of course we all want to know that
right that's why we follow these polls
religiously because we want to Peak into
what's going to happen I mean I think
Trump right now is better positioned to
win than he's ever been in any election
before if you look at where he is let's
take the New York Times Sienna poll that
just dropped that's the gold standard
that's the best poll if you ask most
pollsters huge sample and likely voters
and it's got Trump up one which is
basically a tie up one this time four
years ago Biden was up nine over Trump
and that election was this tight and it
had Biden up nine it said the
statistical probability of an electoral
college for Trump was
99.7% yeah if you look at the swing
States Nate sil's interpretation of that
poll that came out yeah and Nate now the
left is turning on Nate inexplicably
really I mean other than his data but
they loved Nate and they created Nate
but now that Nate's numbers aren't going
their way they're like who's Nate
connected to who's he working for Nate
like most prognosticators wants to be
right but look I'll say this and by the
way in 16 it showed Hillary up too at
this point so and Trump won that
election you know the general wisdom is
that the Democrat has to be up some four
points or better in the National polling
given the fact that they usually win the
popular vote G just given how blue the
urban centers are in order to win in
order to cross over in those swing
States and right now she's not I mean
that New York Times shows her down you
were in the middle of the 2016 election
I find this comparison very interesting
so I'm curious your take contrast and
compare Donald Trump versus Hillary
Clinton what day is it today
September
9th of that election and Donald Trump
and kamla Harris September 9th
now Trump had some advantages back then
that he doesn't have now including his
genuine Outsider status it was very
attractive to a lot of Voters who had
never voted before speaking of getting
up off your couch um that really worked
for him and Trump was incredibly vibrant
feisty fiery fun you know provocative
obviously controversial and new you know
we all knew Trump but we knew him as
this crazy n businessman with a lot of
color and suddenly he morphed under the
itical field like unlike anything we'd
ever seen I mean there was a reference
to penis size and a presidential debate
yeah I was
there um so that happened this time
around people are a little bit more used
to Trump's bits right his routine he's
obviously a little older but still
vibrant I mean could any of you have
stood on that presidential stage and
given a nearly 2hour address a week
after someone shot you in the ear like I
was falling asleep and I was seated and
fine you know I'm like I didn't need so
he's got a lot of energy but he's not an
outsider exactly anymore he's he is
still one he's not taking like all the
money these fat cats and ready to kiss
their bottoms necessarily but he's lost
that what he's gained is a record you
know now Trump can go on this debate
stage tomorrow night with some real ammo
you know if you were you better off four
years than you are today and really
point to his policies one of the great
tragedies of the Trump era has been his
policies have been incredibly good for
America yeah it's just his rhetoric is
Sox divisive toxic depends on who you
ask right depends on who you ask that he
activating that the majority of
Americans dislike him and then what
about Hillary versus K oh god well
Hillary was smart
[Applause]
that they didn't they didn't hide
Hillary Hillary did interviews right I
had this I had this conversation just
this morning you can say what you want
about Hillary Clinton but she is
incredibly competent yeah incredibly
competent she's competent and she could
have done the job how she did it and
with what level of honesty and
Corruption would be a different story
but I I really think the problem for KLA
Harris is she's not smart she's not a
deep thinker
she's very surface level yeah she's
giggling just like that all the
time
spicy Megan tell us how you feel really
be honest and it's a cover it's an
obvious cover right it's like she gets
to the point where she doesn't know what
she's saying even she doesn't know what
she's saying and it's
like and so you feel uncomfortable
watching her and then she gave her first
interview to CNN and suddenly if that's
drunk Comm suddenly we're dealing with
hungover comma like my values haven't
changed like clearly somebody had told
her you cackle we're out of here yeah
what did you think about her bringing
her emotional support white guy exactly
her emotional support Governor he was
her big white blankie like I it made no
sense like it seemed like a terrible
strategic decision like who's making the
decision to do that I agree I objected
to the whole thing I think he was there
for two two purposes uh one was yes in
case she got in real trouble he could
step in yeah and the other was to suck
up some of the air times so she had a
couple of fewer questions to answer what
did you think of the job just
broadcaster or broadcaster Dana Bash did
um because she she did ask some tough
questions she did probe a little bit no
not enough she did terribly
okay I mean I don't I don't think it was
particularly hard but but that was not a
good job okay explain why what would you
have done differently so many things go
back and listen to my podcast the day
after cuz I took it apart forensically
bit by give us the top three here there
where were the follow-up questions where
were the hard-hitting follow-ups when
she said her nonsense like specifically
how what exactly caused you to change
your mind walk me through the process
and hit her with all of them not just a
couple and Tim Walls grammar the grammar
excuse that's why he said he carried a
weapon into war it was his grammar what
kind of BS was that and no followup yeah
yes and honestly all taken was do you
really want our audience to believe you
said you took weapons into war as a
soldier Okay because every every actual
service Personnel knows you don't
exaggerate something like that that's
hollowed ground you don't say you went
into war when you didn't and he's
already on the hot seat for having said
you know he was a command sergeant major
and he he didn't retire such and so on
anyway all it would have taken was you
really want this audience to believe
that was a grammatical error is that
your story no that she none of that was
done and it was just irritating because
there's so much for kamla Harris to be
cross-examined on she just she went to
sleep I mean the follow and the followup
question is just such an easy thing to
do you don't even have to say it as
aggressively as you did you just say
Okay so to be clear let me repeat back
to you grammar is the reason you said
but let me tell you something let me
tell you something some aggression was
warranted this is the problem her her
timidity is part of the problem because
I I challenge anybody go back and look I
did an interview with Trump in
September we've been through a he and I
well yeah that's an interesting
relationship it's a very interesting
relationship and I saw him at a
turningpoint event the previous August
and I said I'd love to sit down with you
he said great I'll do it so we sat down
September of last year it was a great
interview it was challenging he was not
in love with
it good which part where I hammered him
on the legal stuff yeah it had a
crescendo and a de Crescendo like every
good interview should you know we
started up off with some stuff that he
would like Joe Biden's old how about
that and then you built you warmed him
up a classic strategy right so on on the
on the legal on the law fair so judge
meron just moved the sentencing date
from I guess it was supposed to be a few
days ago to November 18th it occurs to
me that's two weeks after the election
so if meron wants to send Trump to
prison but is afraid to do it now
because it'd be a huge backlash right
before the election seems to me that's
kind of what you do you set the date two
weeks after do you
I mean what's your take on that do you
thinked if Trump loses the election do
you think he's going to Rikers no I
don't you don't think so I think there's
a possibility Maran will sentence him
because this whole case which was about
him writing down something in a book no
one ever saw it was in a book that
stayed on the Shelf at Trump Tower
didn't have the right thing it didn't
say hush money to Stormy Daniels it said
Legal Services no one ever saw that just
someone came knocking because they
wanted to mess with Trump found it and
said this isn't recorded accurately it's
a fraud and he got prosecuted and I
think judge Maran and has allowed Alvin
brag to turn it into you tried to steal
the election because now guys I'm sorry
to tell you but if you ever want to run
for office you have an ethical
obligation to let any woman accusing you
of any bad stuff come forward and say it
to everyone and if she says I won't hurt
you publicly whether it's true or not if
you just give me $130,000 you may not
pay her or you going to go to jail so
you must let yourself be blackmailed let
someone say this stuff about you true or
not or you're going to prison that's how
that case was tried that is now the
position that every politician is in
theoretically I mean the the case made
sense as a misdemeanor but not as a
felony I think you would Age no sense it
as a misdemeanor the statute of
limitations had expired sure but I mean
it clearly was escalated to a point but
I wonder how you think as with family
members you know in the um uh you know
that are cops um how you look at the
other cases um and if you think there's
any validity to them because there are
five cases we're talking about he's
guilty of the first three so far out of
three some of them feel trumped up um
but what about the last two you know the
the documents and the January 6th one do
you think there's any validity to them
no no validity the only the only thing
that Trump was potentially in trouble on
and the thing I hit him on when we
interviewed was not turning over the
documents once he had a subpena which
would have been so easy to do yes which
was dumb but he's Trump he should have
he always does self-destructive stff
gone away now too because of Jack Smith
not being properly appointed down there
but in answer to your question on on
Judge michon I think um he he almost is
in a position where he might have to
sentence him to jail given how big
they've tried to make it you stole an
election you stole but it'll it would be
at a suspended sentence it would be
immediately appealed and I think Trump
on appeal will win there are so many
holes in that case so I don't think
Trump will ever do one single day in
jail so Megan if um we look at the five
cases you know six months from there a
year from now let's assume all five of
them go to trial um he's guilty of three
so far wait what do you what do you mean
he's guilty of three so far he's been
convicted of three sorry what do you
mean know he hasn't um the ell uh no EEG
EEG Carol was guilty that was not a
conviction that was a civil case well
yes so that's what I'm talking about so
that okay but there's a big difference
it's still he was convicted he was
guilty of that you got a settl um in
the yeah in the Trump organization
they're guilty there
liable liable yes of course but these
are the cases we're talking about and in
the third one you know she's a lawyer
right yeah of course and in the third
one I'm just talking about the five
cases yes some are civil obviously and
and some some are not some are criminal
but if we look at all you said three
convictions now you're walking it back
I'm not walking it back there's three in
which he was you should walk it back so
glad Megan is here the five three of
them he's either guilty or he got a bad
result yeah got a bad result there are
two more if he is found guilty of those
two more mag
um and five of five he had a bad result
um way to frame it um will will you
chalk all five up in your mind to five
different jurisdictions five different
prosecutors five different juries and or
judges all conspiring to get him 100%
okay yes that's all I wanted to hear
your answer to five of five five
different jurisdictions you think it's
Carol they they changed the law so that
she could bring a civil lawsuit against
him and she did New York Jury New York
went 87% for Joe Biden that that that
fix was in right from the start the
fraud trial that Leticia James brought
against him has never been brought
there's no victims the banks who were
involved said we didn't lose a penny
what are we doing here we weren't
damaged nobody was complaining except
Tish James who ran for office saying I
will get him then you have Alvin Bragg
who's a George Soros funded prosecutor
who doesn't like to prosecute any crime
in New York City where I live for 17
years except if your name is Donald
Trump let's go down to Georgia where
Fanny Willis and Nathan Wade couldn't
keep their libidos in Jack long enough
to actually bring this case against
Donald Trump it's a repeat of what was
happening in January 6th up in the case
with judge chuckin who loathes Trump and
has sentenced almost every j6 defendant
to way more jail time than their
counterparts would get those are falling
apart because of presidential immunity
which was handed down by the Supreme
Court who said you cannot bring a
criminal case against a sitting
president for any official act those
cases have have been gutted also a
Supreme Court ruling saying the same on
January 6 defendants in general and that
leaves us with Florida and the documents
and Trump has torn that apart because
Jack Smith wasn't properly appointed and
isn't the right Council but there are
other issues they haven't even gotten to
presidential immunity there and so that
one's going nowhere as well and by the
way they're going to peel it up to the
11 circuit she just threw it out the 11
circuit is conservative and thank God so
is the current Supreme Court they're not
going to tolerate that nonsense let me
ask you about
um I think let me I think J Cal I think
J Cal just lost lost his right to ever
bring up lawfare
again no we're we're done with your
it's over I didn't give we're
not here to hear my opinion I didn't
give my opinion I wanted me let let's um
the Democratic party and the Republican
Party 2028 post all of this okay um I
suspect because of your influence I I so
tell me if this is not even true but
upand cominging folks are probably
trying to meet you all the time because
they want to build a relation ship build
a rapport so that when it's time for
them to get you know interviewed or
whatever there's a so you must see a lot
of people just give us a state of
politicians post this current
batch what is the same I don't feel very
optimistic okay is it getting worse yeah
it's getting worse because of Instagram
and AOC that kind of
person yes her specifically but not just
her um I say more
they they want these are congressional
Kardashians can I tell you something my
experience in the news business dealing
with politicians leads me to believe
that the people in this room and on this
stage over your two-day conference are
the people we need to be looking to for
our future leaders and ideas and to save
the country it it's not Washington DC
all the incentives to be a good person
are gone it's not that there aren't any
good ones there there definitely are and
there's some you know true Patriots who
are still trying to serve and even who
are who are two people just on on either
side that you would just tell us to look
out for or even they are already doing
the job where you say these two people
are like good
people you should play the little
Jeopardy music right
now um no one's coming to mind off the
top of my head but I know that there are
some uh look I like Rand
Paul I think Rand Paul is a good andon
man don't run a giant deficit it's not a
bad I mean all of them lie so I'm not
trying to excuse all of that they all do
but if you watch people long enough you
find the ones that stand up for the
right issues and seem to have some
integrity that's one that comes to mind
I there used to be a day where they
where they would reach across the aisle
and they actually weren't just there for
clicks or to make themselves famous or
and those days are few and far between
now I just think with look I supported
the Supreme Court's decision in citizen
United and I think big money in politics
was always going to happen but it's
corrupted the system in a way that you
know most politicians only have to
answer to their one group of big donors
or their one small constituency and
their one very red or very blue town and
there's no more incentive to compromise
there's only incentive to get reelected
which is one of the frustrations we have
when we watch Washington nothing gets
done or size of relief in this Congress
where we watch Washington and nothing
gets done right right now I'm all about
going back to the original founding
version of this country where government
was as small as possible the presidency
was as small as possible and these
people do as little as humanly possible
while they're in I feel Megan I feel
like someone should do like a modernday
recap of the Federalist Papers like an
understanding of the basis of the
foundation of the Republic like were
what were the founding philosophies and
and then understanding how far astray
we've we've gone but let me ask you a
question what constitutional amendments
would you pass to fix the incentive
problems if you could have your brothers
pass any Constitutional Amendment or two
what would they be to address the
incentive issue that's causing a lot of
the integrity and misalignment I don't
think it it starts like that I think it
it is just like KLA Harris's Choice as
Biden's uh replacement it's bottom up
it's bottom up that's the LIE remember
they told us Chuck Schumer it's bottom
up we chose the people chose her
literally nobody's voted for her to be
the nomin
um I think this one does have to be
bottom up like if we're going to change
the way we elect politicians and the way
we govern ourselves you know we're so
it's so much more complex than just what
what laws are written down and you Tech
has a lot to do with it how divided we
are how disconnected we are how lonely
we are I mean right now the latest
strain of the argument is interesting
which is all the processed foods are
making us weird and unhealthy and dying
and and dividing people further because
it's driving our hormones nuts and our
behavior is getting weirder and obese
yeah and obesity so I mean there's just
a lot we need to reconsider about the
way we're living and I do think one of
the main things is we need to see each
other again we need to like look each at
each other in the eye across from the
table we need to ban our kids from
playing on the devices when they get
together for playd dates we must insist
that they play outside without any
devices and actually connect with nature
we must make sure that they do the same
we must get out of the coastal cities
and go to fly over country and go to a
rodeo in Montana something like that you
know I we all we have to start loving
our country again that's a huge piece of
it and that again is community you know
speaking of rodeo and Montana we went we
go out there we have a little ski cabin
there which we love and uh we went in
the summer brought our kids to a
rodeo they started playing the national
anthem and my little guy at the time was
like five and he was a little slow to
get up right like he knows to get up but
he was five and there's this old cowboy
sitting right behind us with the big hat
and the jeans and the belt and he goes
boy you better get on your feet and my
son was like oh yes sir that was me
but I was like right on that's great
right on that's what we need right like
more of that and more of looking out for
one another not with forced taxes and
through the eyeballs and all that
nonsense but like your neighbor's sick
go make him a casserole your old older
neighbor is housebound go m lawn that is
the stuff that used to make us us and as
we just Retreat into our devices and our
television screens and all of it we lose
that and we lose us all right well said
ladies and gentlemen Megan
Kelly thank you w standing out that was
awesome really awesome
