Tulsi Gabbard and RFK discuss the hearings and what happened over the Potomac. Megynkellek gives her thoughts on the hearings, and why she thinks Tulsi will get a fair chance to vote yes.
00:00:00.000I had a great discussion with the legendary Megyn Kelly on her podcast.
00:00:03.000Make sure you check out her podcast and subscribe to The Megyn Kelly Show about what happened over the Potomac DEI, Affirmative Action, the FAA, Bobby Kennedy, Tulsi Gabbard, and more.
00:00:59.000He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:43.000So yesterday we had hearings for Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, and the second day for RFKJ. I sat in for an hour plus of the Tulsi hearing, and it was rather disheartening.
00:01:55.000I did not feel encouraged about her chances by the time I was done.
00:01:58.000But then later I felt encouraged when I heard what Susan Collins, who is this, you know, kind of Democrat masquerading as a Republican from Maine, said about her impressions.
00:02:41.000Okay, so there's Tulsi pushing back on her.
00:02:44.000The cross-examination by Susan Collins wasn't particularly aggressive, but it kind of sounded like that.
00:02:49.000You could argue that she was just giving her a chance to respond to the things that have been alleged about her, but you could hear Tulsi sort of taking issue with even the suggestion.
00:02:59.000Well, after the fact, Collins said, I was happy with her responses to my questions.
00:03:16.000Net-net, I don't think she would have used the word happy if she were going to vote against her.
00:03:21.000Now, that doesn't answer the question of whether Tulsi gets through, because there were a lot of Republican senators there who seemed not like fans of Tulsi's.
00:04:26.000It was created post 9-11 to actually be the connective tissue between all of the intelligence agencies.
00:04:33.000It actually is above the Central Intelligence Agency, above the CIA. It has power that has not really been exercised for quite some time.
00:04:42.000DNI is the custodian of the nation's secrets.
00:04:46.000It is the keeper of secrets from all the things that our government is doing that They don't want us to always know what they're doing.
00:04:53.000And the most pressing, of course, that matters to those of us that are Trump supporters is, is there another soft coup being run through five eyes to try to thwart a sitting president of the United States, like what happened during the first administration during Russiagate with Christopher Steele and the dirty dossier to spy on President Trump to try to go after him?
00:05:11.000And using the FBI and using secret skips and using outside firms like Fusion GPS, is something like that happening again?
00:05:20.000And the director of national intelligence will be able to tell you yes or no and stop it if it's actually happening in real time.
00:05:27.000Tulsi Gabbard is an extraordinary person.
00:05:29.000Her vet file came back like clean, clean, clean.
00:05:32.000She actively has a top-level security clearance, a TSSCI. She serves in the military.
00:05:38.000She was a former Democrat, which makes this even more interesting because she has been so focused on...
00:05:45.000Trying to reorient American foreign policy to an America-first standpoint, not one of neo-globalist, internationalist wars and nation-building at every single corner and every turn.
00:05:57.000Now, why is it that her confirmation is the hardest of all of them?
00:06:07.000And a lot of these senators, to be perfectly honest, have been fed BS by these intel agencies for so long and acting as if that they've done nothing wrong and we can't reform them and it's jeopardizing national security.
00:06:19.000Well, on the other side of it, how much damage has our intel agencies done?
00:06:24.000We invaded Iraq wrongly, by the way, because of faulty intelligence on weapons of mass destruction.
00:06:30.000We got involved in Libya, something we never should have gotten involved in, which turned into Libyan civil war because we were told Muammar Gaddafi is like the worst person on the planet.
00:06:39.000Or how about all the faulty intelligence in the Russian-Ukrainian war?
00:06:42.000Or the faulty intelligence that we've seen all across the Middle East and Syria or in parts of Lebanon?
00:06:49.000What Tulsi Gabbard wants to do is restore the integrity of the nation's intelligence service.
00:06:54.000Now, there's some interesting elements in here, and I've been really hammering this unsuccessfully, by the way.
00:06:59.000I think it's outrageous that they're not doing this vote in public.
00:07:02.000It is the only agency official, I think the CIA maybe, but that one wasn't as controversial, where they go into a SCIF, a secure compartmentalized information facility, and they do this vote outside of the public eye.
00:07:18.000I think when you're trying to elect somebody who's a lifelong transparency advocate, and you're going to go into a secret facility and we can't see how the actual members vote, I find that to be repulsive.
00:07:30.000I think people should be incensed about that.
00:07:33.000I think that our elected officials should not operate in the shadows, that they should tell you how they vote.
00:07:38.000And so just to reiterate, when they actually end up voting for Tulsi Gabbard.
00:07:44.000This will not be like how they vote for Bobby Kennedy, where they sit out and they say, I, I, nay, I, okay, the ayes have it, goes out of committee.
00:07:52.000They go into a secret room where no cell phones, no staff, only members are allowed in a secure compartmentalized information facility, and they'll say, well, what do we think about Tulsi?
00:08:04.000And they'll take the vote, and they could decide to make the results public, or they could lie about the results, or they could do vote trading.
00:08:12.000I mean, I think the front page of a certain newspaper says democracy dies in darkness.
00:08:18.000Hey, Washington Post, any interest in this one?
00:08:21.000Where our elected senators are going into a skiff to go determine the future of who is the custodian of our nation's secrets?
00:08:28.000If that is not darkness, what is darkness?
00:08:31.000Because we don't know how Mike Rounds is going to vote.
00:09:33.000You can save babies by providing ultrasounds with pre-born.
00:09:36.000Together with the Sanctity of Human Life Month, we're going to save 35,000 babies to show the world that not only do we believe life is precious, but we're going to do something about it.
00:09:46.000Your gift of pre-born will give a girl the truth about what's happening in her body so that she can make the right choice.
00:09:51.000What better way to start this new year than to join us to save babies?
00:09:55.000And $28 a month will save a baby a month all year long.
00:09:59.000A $15,000 gift will provide a complete ultrasound machine that will save thousands of babies for years and years to come.
00:10:05.000And will also save moms from a lifetime of pain and regret.
00:10:09.000I am a donor to this organization, and you should be too.
00:10:12.000Start this new year by being a hero for life.
00:10:15.000Call 833-850-2229 or click on the preborn banner at charliekirk.com.
00:10:20.000That is charliekirk.com and click on the preborn banner.
00:11:03.000My hope is that senators who really don't like Tulsi are going to go in this skiff, and they're going to feel all the public pressure.
00:11:10.000And they'll say, guys, let's just vote to put her on the floor.
00:11:13.000Now, understand, you can vote for her in committee and then vote against her in the floor, which is probably the deal that they're brokering with Susan Collins, to be perfectly honest, right?
00:11:21.000That they say, hey, just get her out of committee.
00:11:24.000Now, once it's on the floor, there is no skiff.
00:12:18.000He's already, in a lot of ways, deeply unpopular.
00:12:21.000We've said at Turning Point Action that if you oppose President Trump's nominees and you are from one of these red states, we are going to fund a primary challenge against you.
00:12:30.000And in fact, we were unafraid to issue those kinds of salvos during the whole Pete Hegseth situation in December and obviously helped contribute to the reversal and the pivot from that.
00:12:42.000I mean, Pete Hegseth went down from like a 1% to 2% chance of becoming secretary of defense to now just doing an extraordinary job.
00:12:48.000So I don't want to say, OK, what is the percentage chance of Tulsi advancing?
00:12:53.000If she gets out of committee, her chances will improve dramatically.
00:12:57.000Her fight is in the committee, which of course happens in the shadows and in the darkness.
00:13:01.000All right, let's talk about RFKJ. So I didn't get to the soundbite yesterday, but there was a pretty extraordinary, there were a couple of extraordinary exchanges in his day two in front of the health committee confirmation hearing.
00:13:25.000Rand Paul is one of the reasons Dr. Fauci felt he needed a pardon, because it seemed clear that Dr. Fauci lied to Rand Paul's face repeatedly while under oath about his gain of function, involvement, and so on.
00:13:37.000And Rand Paul just knew the questions to ask Dr. Fauci during the relevant time.
00:14:54.000Well, then I will be the first person, if you show me data, I will be the first person to assure the American people that they need to take those vaccines.
00:15:06.000So in response to that, Here's Rand Paul, Saat 21. The reason you have distrust from people at home, why they don't believe anything you say, they don't believe government at all, is you're telling my kids to take a hepatitis B vaccine when he's one day old.
00:15:20.000You get it through drug use and sexually transmitted.
00:15:23.000That's how you get hepatitis B. For the record, if a child is born to a hepatitis B mother, that child may have a 95% chance of becoming a chronic carrier.
00:15:33.000And we vaccinate those people, and nobody's against that.
00:15:36.000That's a very small percentage in the red area.
00:15:55.000We test for hepatitis B in utero, so we know if the mom has hepatitis B. That's how we're talking about.
00:16:02.000It is a mandatory, like, minute one vaccination in certain states.
00:16:07.000Thankfully, in Arizona, even the nurses are like, smart decision when we say no, hepatitis B. I mean, it has lost all trust and credibility in the rank and file.
00:16:17.000A lot of progress is made on that one.
00:17:30.000And the COVID vaccine in particular, we had Nancy Mace who came out and said that she's had health problems that have never changed since she got the COVID vaccine.
00:17:39.000And we were told that it was safe and effective.
00:17:41.000And yet when we look at all these studies that they reference, it turns out that there's a lot of corruption in the medical and scientific literature.
00:17:48.000A lot of these pharmaceutical companies are funding these studies.
00:17:54.000We want vaccines to be safe and effective, obviously.
00:17:57.000But I'm also a free thinker, and I'm not just going to carry the water for people that have done nothing to earn our trust.
00:18:04.000And so I hope we can win over Senator Cassidy.
00:18:07.000I find his comments to just be laughable in some ways because anyone knows that, okay, the hepatitis B vaccine in particular, yes, if a mom has hepatitis B, which we test for, then give the kid the vaccine.
00:18:21.000But within minutes of a child's birth, you're trying to tell me that there's no side effect for pumping them with a hepatitis B vaccine, which is completely unnecessary, I think is wrong.
00:18:30.000I think it's one of the reasons why we need Bobby Kennedy so badly.
00:18:33.000So I certainly hope he'll end up voting for RFK. To me, it's so infuriating.
00:19:08.000And his long history of alleged vaccine denialism that he got cross-examined over, over and over and over and over again.
00:19:13.000And the long and the short of it is Bobby Kennedy jumped up and down and said, there's mercury in these vaccines and I don't know that it's safe.
00:20:14.000It does something else for the vaccines.
00:20:16.000But that, too, is a potential neurotoxin.
00:20:18.000And then they say, it's nothing, it's nothing, it's nothing.
00:20:20.000Just shove it in your baby and don't give it two thoughts.
00:20:23.000All of this is going on while the toxic stew that our children are swimming in was growing exponentially from the pollutants in their water and the fluorine and the chloride to the pollutants in their food to the pollutants that is on your sofa and the baby toys and the baby bottles and all around them.
00:20:41.000And Bobby Kennedy has been saying, can we just pause a little to figure out...
00:21:13.000Thank God, perfectly healthy children, to say, why are you so determined to stop the questions?
00:21:20.000And the COVID vaccine is even a more persuasive case where you've got young boys, 15-year-old boys with myocarditis dying, dying, and they won't acknowledge it.
00:21:38.000Are you unknowingly missing out on God's blessing by not aligning your investments with biblical principles?
00:21:45.000Would you like your hard-earned retirement dollars to support Israel, God's land, and chosen people?
00:21:51.000Most people don't realize the spiritual and financial benefits of investing in Israel because they lack the knowledge to do so effectively.
00:22:01.000Don't let your investments become disconnected from your faith and values.
00:22:05.000Diversify those dollars into Israeli shekels.
00:22:08.000To top it off, Israel is one of the fastest growing, innovative, and resilient economies in the world.

00:22:36.000By the way, the COVID vaccine is now on the childhood vaccination schedule.
00:22:43.000So there are 18 months olds that are getting the COVID vaccine.
00:22:46.000Like, yeah, that's never going to happen.
00:22:49.000We're not doing mRNA gene-altering technology.
00:22:51.000By the way, what is the risk if my kid gets COVID? Incredibly low.
00:22:55.000Like, remarkably low for infants and for kids that get COVID. So there's a lot to unpack there.
00:23:01.000But I think also, shouldn't the broader question be, okay, vaccines causing autism, whatever, fine.
00:23:22.000I don't know, but something is causing it.
00:23:24.000Something is causing this massive spike, and yet Bobby is the criminal for noticing.
00:23:31.000You see, Bobby is the enemy for noticing, and the old expression goes, to find out who controls you, find out what you can't criticize.
00:23:39.000And we cannot criticize our public health authorities.
00:23:42.000And the media is so in bed with it for a very simple reason, which I hope the president and Bobby Kennedy get rid of, is you're allowed to advertise on these networks so shamelessly that they have bought the entire media industrial complex.
00:23:55.000I was watching the Bills-Chiefs game, and I was watching a football game doing work, and all of a sudden, the most ridiculous commercial ever pops up, where it's like some guy running through a meadow, and they list all the side effects of these drugs.
00:24:08.000You know, might cause sudden death and might cause all these different things.
00:24:11.000And I said to myself, there's no way that this ad is persuasive.
00:24:14.000There's no way that there's some guy in Buffalo, New York, watching the Bills game, being like, you know what, now I need to go buy that drug.
00:24:20.000No, it's part of a broader strategy, which, by the way, pharmaceutical advertisements is actually the lowest cost-per-dollar return of anything.
00:24:28.000No, it's part of a broader strategy where they're trying to win the goodwill and control these media companies so they get favorable coverage.
00:24:58.000Okay, no one actually ends up doing it.
00:25:00.000Instead, what it does is it gives them air cover against any of the journalist class and any of the people making the decisions at these media companies that could potentially investigate them or yes, or give them a scintilla of negative coverage.
00:25:14.000It's truly like the warning labels are like, you could try this to decrease your skin itchiness, but it may cause testicular boils.
00:26:06.000H-A-N-N-A-H underscore B-A-R-R at Cassidy dot Senate dot gov.
00:26:11.000And I think with all due respect to Hannah, and I'm sure she's a lovely person, and Senator Cassidy follows me on X, so I'm sure he saw the posts I sent his way yesterday.
00:27:28.000Super dismissive about it and said, no, you're not.
00:27:32.000Yeah, it was interesting because then the doctor came in and was talking to me about how he said, hey, when I was in medical school, I had a lot of workload.
00:27:38.000I was really stressed out and I got put on antidepressants and kind of anti-anxiety medication and it really helped me a lot.
00:27:44.000And I think that would be beneficial for you too.
00:27:46.000And I was like, thank you, but no, thank you.
00:27:50.000I think this is just a heart thing I'm dealing with.
00:27:52.000I'm only anxious now because my heart is racing and I'm worried about my heart.
00:27:56.000It's episode 222. It's very worth your time to go back and listen to Kyle's story.
00:28:08.000It's about a whole, I know it gets overused, but medical industrial complex that cares more about hooking you on drugs like SSRIs and taking every single vaccine so that they can make a ton of money like Pfizer did, like Moderna did.
00:29:09.000We're the most overweight, the most alcohol addicted, the most drug addicted, the most suicidal, the most anxious, the most depressed that we've ever been.
00:29:18.000And so something is fundamentally wrong.
00:29:21.000And of course, you've heard this before.
00:29:23.000We have a sick care system, not a health care system.
00:29:26.000And these major conglomerates have no interest in actually having a healthy population.
00:29:32.000In fact, a healthy population is a threat to the bottom line of Eli Lilly.
00:29:37.000A healthy population is a threat to the bottom line of Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, and Johnson& Johnson.
00:29:44.000A healthy population means that you don't have to have 13-year-olds.
00:29:49.000As we are having this chat right now, there is a simultaneous congressional debate to put Ozembic on the Medicaid schedule so that teenagers, instead of healthy lifestyle or eating better, can do an injection every week, pill for every ill, and that will solve obesity.
00:30:06.000And if you look carefully on cable news, because I know all the interest groups behind it, they're running very persuasive ads.
00:30:12.000They say obesity is killing Americans.
00:30:14.000Call your senator to say that our government should stand up against obesity.
00:30:19.000So what they're saying is they're framing obesity as this big problem.
00:30:23.000We'll call this number to support this bill.
00:30:26.000They don't tell you what's in the bill.
00:30:27.000The bill is to put Ozembic on the Medicaid schedule, which would then have kids across the country not pursue healthier lifestyles, but instead have to do an injection for the rest of their life, which has all of these terrible side effects.
00:30:40.000Oh, and you have gallbladder issues and kidney stones and digestive problems.
00:31:05.000What is Dr. Casey Means behind him saying?
00:31:07.000They are talking about the toxins all...
00:31:10.000Throughout our society, Nicole Shanahan, who was RFKJ's running me, all these people are talking about what causes the obesity.
00:31:16.000You know, you may be right that it's not entirely your fault, but the solution for a 13-year-old is not Ozempic.
00:31:21.000It's to get him off of nonstop processed foods, which make you more fat, to get him off of seed oils, which, I mean, go back, and there's a lot of medical research on this now that talk about how that makes you more prone to hold onto your fat.
00:31:42.000This team is going to stop all of that, and they're just whistling into the wind right now because they're being painted as a bunch of new-age kooks.
00:31:51.000I totally agree with you, and honestly, I know Ozempic has helped a lot of people, but it is a totally different game when you are an adult and you are capable of assessing risk versus being a child.
00:32:36.000It happens a lot to thin women who aren't like, it can be helpful to be a heavier person because like you're pounding your bones while you walk and a lot of thin women wind up with this condition.
00:32:44.000Anyway, not for nothing, I've said this before, but I did go on this once a month injectable drug called E-Venity for whatever it's worth for 12 months and truly it like cured.
