On today's show, Megyn talks about the latest fallout from anti-ICE agitators' protest at a Minnesota church, and how the DOJ is investigating possible charges under the so-called "Klan Act." Plus, the latest on David Beckham and the controversy surrounding his purchase of a black-owned company by the Obamas.
00:02:01.160As we told you on AM Update, the Department of Justice is now looking into a potential FACE Act.
00:02:06.980That's that act that prohibits you from messing with people outside of an abortion clinic or, as luck would have it, a religious institution.
00:02:14.700They're looking into potential charges under that, as well as the so-called Klan Act, which says, basically, you can't conspire with somebody to deprive somebody else of their constitutional rights, like the freedom to worship.
00:02:28.280And so that second act is more serious.
00:02:32.700You get charged under the Klan Act, it's a felony on, number one, your first offense.
00:02:37.820You get charged under the FACE Act, it's a misdemeanor, if it's your first offense.
00:02:43.200And it's basically slap on the wrist territory.
00:02:46.800But if it's like a multiple, if it's like your third violation under the FACE Act, that's how they throw grannies in jail outside of abortion clinics.
00:02:52.840But I think the reason we're talking about Klan Act charges is because those are all felonies and it's very serious and no one wants to be charged with that.
00:03:02.860And it's really not it's sort of analogous to what happened in the South when we were trying to desegregate it.
00:03:09.520And the government was trying to make that happen.
00:03:13.100And local citizens, Democrats, were not complying and they were conspiring against people's rights.
00:03:21.980So anyway, it's just an interesting way to think about it.
00:03:25.280Potentially bad news for Lemon, especially if he's taking legal advice from Minnesota's far left attorney general, Keith Ellison.
00:03:31.380I mean, that guy, like it's been a long time since I've practiced law, though I remember it well.
00:03:38.420He's actively the practicing law as the attorney general of Minnesota right now, and he doesn't seem to understand it at all.
00:03:43.900He thought, for example, that FACE Act ended after protecting abortion clinics.
00:03:49.560Like, OK, as soon as I'm done hearing what's good for my side, I'm going to close the law book and pretend nothing else is in there.
00:03:56.940It's sad, though, because he's the state's top law enforcement officer and he doesn't appear to know his legal ass from his elbow, which, of course, we knew when we heard him on tape appearing to conspire with fraudulent Somalis about how he was going to have their back.
00:04:33.380Here to react to all this and more, one of our very favorite people, film producer, songwriter, multiple Emmy award winning actor, James Woods, who has a new album out right now called Tombstone Opera.
00:04:46.960A new year means new financial goals like making sure your savings are secure and diversified.
00:04:53.420Will this be the year you decide to talk to somebody from Birch Gold Group?
00:04:56.740You know, you've been thinking about it.
00:04:58.120They use an educated approach with a deep understanding of macroeconomics.
00:05:03.340There are forces pushing the dollar lower right now and gold higher, which is why they believe every American should own physical gold.
00:05:09.660So, until January 30th, if you are a first-time gold buyer, Birch Gold is offering a rebate of up to $10,000 on qualifying purchases.

00:05:32.860Consider making right now your first time to buy gold and take advantage of a rebate of up to $10,000 when you buy by January 30th.
00:05:41.520Text MK to the number 989898 and claim your eligibility today.
00:06:57.480I'll give you an example of what I'm talking about.
00:06:59.220Did you ever see the movie The Patriot with Mel Gibson?
00:07:01.480At the end of The Patriot, the militia guys, the hardworking colonials who want to build this beautiful country, stand on the line against the British regulars.
00:07:19.520They're going to go over and slaughter them all.
00:07:20.920And as they come over the hill, the entire colonial army is waiting for them and wipes them out, sends Bannister Talton to Yorktown to hide with Cornwallis, and they end up surrendering to Washington and America is born.
00:07:36.720I am a ninth generation descendant of one of the patriots who was one of the militiamen at the Battle of Cowpens, which was just a few days ago, short of 245 years ago.
00:10:19.700You know, my brother ran for mayor in our—my late brother, guy, rest his soul—ran for mayor in our little town in Warwick, Rhode Island.
00:10:30.200And in Rhode Island, you have to run as a Democrat because you can't win any other way.
00:11:48.360Because according to Piaget Kohlberg in their theories of moral development, the greatest level of moral development is even to break the standard law to do a greater good, which any decent human being would know was necessary for the survival of the race.
00:12:04.400And to rid the world of Hitler was important.
00:12:10.840Now, if you call Donald Trump a dictator and everybody supports him a fascist and we're all Nazis and we're all pedophiles, we're all—you know, you say, listen, we've got to get rid of this guy no matter what.
00:12:21.520How is it even possible that any American citizen can watch a presidential candidate, a former president of the United States and about to be the future president of the United States, get shot in the head?
00:14:07.120And it's like, oh, you know, when Nicki Minaj pointed out all the heinous things that this little man,
00:14:12.260this fake journalist, this pathetic, mean-spirited, racist, poor excuse for an American, decided to lead this mob into a Rockwell painting.
00:14:29.120I mean, this little kid sitting with their parents worshiping God.
00:14:32.040I mean, when that all happened, the only thing that the liberal press reported in the newspaper was the unfortunate word that she used.
00:14:42.260And when we start, you know, the only thing Michelle Obama—
00:14:46.040I believe the word you're looking for is cocksucker?
00:27:27.720So separate and apart from, you know, the criminal charges and all that.
00:27:31.680And we actually are going to have a deep dive on the criminal charges tomorrow with Dave Ehrenberg and Mike Davis on this program.
00:27:35.360So you won't have have a better legal debate anywhere.
00:27:37.740But here, of course, he goes back to his priors.
00:27:42.020He's all excited that he's the center of attention and he's got to raise all the things that he always raises.
00:27:48.860Like, first, I'm a gay black man in responding to Nicki Minaj.
00:27:53.220And then also these accusations, which we heard from him in one way, shape or form throughout his entirety on CNN and certainly since he's gone, quote, independent.
00:28:03.820I think that there is obviously this there's racism.
00:28:06.820And at the whole point of it is that they're trying to they're detaining people on the streets because of accents and the color of their skin.
00:28:12.560And they're also targeting targeting people of color and black people as well as as brown people.
00:28:18.000So there is a certain degree of racism there.
00:28:20.380And there's a certain degree of entitlement.
00:28:21.720I think people who are, you know, in religious groups like that, it's not the type of Christianity that I practice, but I think that they're entitled and that entitlement comes from a supremacy, a white supremacy.
00:28:33.400And they think that this country was built for them, that it is a Christian country when actually we left England because we wanted religious freedom.
00:28:39.760It's religious freedom, but only if you're a Christian and only if you're a white male, pretty much.
00:28:44.200And so, yeah, absolutely, 100 percent.
00:29:11.520A lot of people in my family were white and had the American flag and shed blood for it.
00:29:16.700You know, my dad had two purple hearts in World War Two, you know, and in the Korean War.
00:29:21.480He didn't probably I wasn't wounded in the Korean War.
00:29:23.580But, you know, I just took it for granted that that, you know, Americans have shed blood for for more people shed blood in the Civil War for people with black skin.
00:29:34.380And then in every war since combined, more Americans died.
00:29:40.060Look how casually he throws that out there, James.
00:29:41.660He smears just these these these people sitting in a church in Minnesota, minding their own business.
00:29:48.700He has no evidence that any of them supports ICE or doesn't.
00:29:52.020There was an unconfirmed report that one of the pastors may have had an affiliation with ICE.
00:29:57.060Like nothing, nothing about anybody in the church, all the members who were there, the children, all smeared as white supremacists and not practicing his brand of Christianity.
00:30:09.640You know, Megan, it is really pretty simple.
00:30:11.740If somebody is breaking the law or has broken the law, the law enforcement people that we hire or vote for are responsible, are obligated to rectify that.
00:30:27.840And, you know, ICE in particular has been going after there was a statistic yesterday that Secretary of Homeland Homeland, Homeland Secretary Noam broadcast to the news.
00:30:41.900Seventy percent of the people that ICE have arrested so far either have outstanding warrants or have committed crimes, violent crimes in the past.
00:31:14.180He goes, hey, man, I hear you're against immigrants.
00:31:17.020I said, there's not a single person in the United States who isn't an immigrant, including the so-called, you know,
00:31:23.500you know, tribes that actually came across the Bering Strait into North America.
00:31:30.680But, you know, I'm against illegal, illegal immigration.
00:31:36.720There's such a thing as legal immigration.
00:31:39.240And the people who actually work hard to have legal immigration work so hard to do it.
00:31:45.040They have to get a lawyer and they study.
00:31:48.340And I guarantee you, by the time they get their citizenship, so many of the legal immigrants in this country know more about the Constitution than half the people probably sitting in Congress, certainly the Democrats.
00:32:01.000Although I will say a lot of these Somalis have become naturalized citizens.
00:32:04.800And now there's a push to denaturalize them, take away that citizenship if they've committed any sort of fraud or crime or, you know, welfare fraud, what have you.
00:32:15.600And I'm totally behind that, too. You don't get to come here, game the system just to get yourself declared an American, just so you can mooch off the rest of us.
00:32:45.380You are low-life losers, and you feel empowered by your dear leader, Donald Trump.
00:32:52.600You have never had this position of power before, small person.
00:32:58.420And you are treating people in an inhumane way, and you don't even understand why, because you're too dumb to figure it out.
00:33:07.460You are the poorly educated that Donald Trump loves.
00:33:10.200That's who you are. And you're out there doing his bidding, doing things that are illegal, doing things that are unconstitutional, doing things that are inhumane, like killing someone.
00:35:43.700Oh, what is wrong with the trailer park?
00:35:45.520Honestly, Don Lemon, the only reason he has tons of money, James, is because he's done serial lawsuits against people over and over and over to pad his wallet because he's too incompetent when it comes to talent to earn the money the old-fashioned way.
00:36:10.520And he now sits there in his ivory tower looking down on the people who made him a name, who helped him get at least some portion of that money from CNN, but he looks at them like they're shit.
00:36:24.600He finds them disgusting if they commit the one sin of wanting to see illegals who molest their children get kicked out.
00:37:38.080The one thing I didn't approve of, even if you were against the war and there were people who were passionate, they didn't believe that, you know, that we had our presence there was justified.
00:37:49.500But then they'd spit on soldiers and they'd go, oh, these guys, they're drafted.
00:40:01.500And he married a nice woman who loved him and helped him raise his kids.
00:40:05.780And he was a genuinely good man, like absolutely a person of character, would never have crossed an ethical line or treated anybody poorly.
00:40:14.740And to hear this elitist fucking snot sit there and dismiss anybody who lives in a trailer as some sort of scum that can't be in the presence of Don Lemon while in the same breath ripping people who are poorly educated.
00:45:48.140You could, you know, it was, Eisenhower was responsible for making sure that the Army was completely integrated in 1954.
00:45:56.960So I find it hard to believe, I don't know for a fact, but I find it hard to believe that there was segregated housing in the Army after 1954.
00:46:06.540It was, I think, completely forbidden, but I may be wrong.
00:46:14.000And, you know, and I don't think there were lynching people.
00:46:15.860But how about the claim that she walked by and saw black bodies lynched on the trees in Columbus, Ohio, where there were approximately zero lynchings and only 11 in the entire state, with the last one being in 1911.
00:46:31.3001911, this woman was born in 1949, but the whole, all the cast of The View, oh, it's horrible.
00:46:38.620The audience, oh, that, like, as if she were born in, like, 1870, James.
00:46:46.160That's, but that's so representative of the left.
00:46:55.280Now, it's the only, the only massive discrimination that I see in the world today is Christian churches being burned all over the world.
00:47:08.480They're being burned at rates that are just astonishing.
00:47:10.900Big cathedrals, I mean, all over the world.
00:47:14.040Christian massacre in Africa going on in all these places.
00:47:18.000And in the United States now, if there's this mantra that's been starting, oh, you know, white people are horrible, white supremacists, and white this and white that.
00:47:26.540It's like, you know, when I grew up, you just lived your life.
00:47:32.420It was, you know, Republicans get elected in the old days.
00:55:15.060No, I made sure to go and get my latte before this, you know, just to make sure for the long lines that are going to be happening with all the baristas out of work after this.
00:55:24.580But they obviously don't have very much organization.
00:55:26.540You know, this is some social media marketing campaign.
00:55:28.560But all it really shows is how much of a religion all of this is to these people and how unserious they are.
00:55:34.800You know, it's so easy to just go online and make some silly video about, oh, we're all going to walk out and we're so tough and we're so brave and we're really fighting against fascism.
00:55:43.380When in reality, I mean, look at what they're doing.
00:55:45.680They're on their phones with free speech talking about being able to be let out of their job to go and protest the president or ICE agents or whatever it is.
00:55:53.000Like, you live the most comfortable, wonderful life throughout human history ever.
00:55:57.380And you're sitting here complaining about this just solely to get virtue signaling points over other people.
00:56:25.640But she's kind of indicative of the vast majority of these women that we're seeing online, these little white, woke, liberal warriors out there and how they think and talk.
00:59:05.240It is so sad that so many of these people just look mentally ill.
00:59:09.540It's like there's become this pride in not fitting into society because you're so weird, because you don't have a marriage, because you don't have kids, because you don't fit in.
01:00:00.700We would talk to her about getting rid of the nose ring and those big blue nails.
01:00:04.700We would give her like a cute little wardrobe that, you know, she looks petite, unlike most of her brethren who are out there.
01:00:11.220And I like, I think that girl really just wants, I mean, I've said this about others in this protest.
01:00:15.760They really just want a boyfriend or a girlfriend.
01:00:19.500Like, you can tell these are sad saps out there, Will.
01:00:23.620I don't, like, part of it is a commentary on America and young people today, their inability to connect, to, like, be happy, to find love.
01:00:34.800They're just so miserable and they lean into unattractive, which never served anyone well in the history of the world.
01:00:43.280Oh, I mean, why would you go and dress up like that if it wasn't for some sort of reason?
01:00:48.760There has to be some sort of mental cognition behind that to be able to go and do something like that.
01:00:53.620I find it very sad as well, but I honestly, I think I have to say I disagree with you with being able to change that person.
01:00:59.520I think that there are some of these people who are out there who have made this such a deep-seated part of their personality, their morality, their reason for living,
01:01:07.780that I think it would take longer than five days for most of these people.
01:01:11.180Now, I think that if they had someone who truly loved them and a boyfriend or whatever, like you were saying before,
01:01:16.940then you could assuage a lot of these different things that are going on inside these people's psyches.
01:01:21.440But, I mean, when you get validation from every corner of America, I mean, you're talking about American society and our culture right now.
01:01:31.660I mean, you have Megan Thee Stallion getting Artist of the Year, Fauci getting National Geographic made out of them,
01:01:37.700and Black Lives Matter getting the Nobel Peace Prize or nominated for the Peace Prize.
01:01:40.920Like, the culture is just daft and awful.
01:01:44.000And so these people doing these weird things and being these kind of people are getting that validation from everywhere.
01:01:49.320And so if they continue to get that validation and that sense of meaning from this nonsense,
01:01:53.820then it's going to be very hard to change these people.
01:01:55.980And I don't really see a world where any of us three could come together with these people and have a unified America, which might be a good thing.
01:02:02.960I do think if they would be less homely, they would be happier.
01:03:04.100All I know her as is liberal white woman, according to the internet, who's got very bleached hair and a Minnesota sweatshirt on for the listening audience.
01:15:46.840So I don't think she cares about her husband's money or her parents, her in-law's fame.
01:15:54.200And this may be part of the problem because Brooklyn Beckham just went jihad on his mom and dad, David Beckham and Victoria.
01:16:04.320And forgive me because he posted it in a written post, so I have to read it.
01:16:09.720He says he had no, this is page six reporting, he had no choice but to break his silence on his longstanding family feud.
01:16:15.400The mother and the wife do not get along, but it's beyond that now we learn.
01:16:19.000In a lengthy Instagram story statement, he said his parents had been controlling narratives in the press about his family and tried to ruin his relationship with his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham.
01:16:32.960I've been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private.
01:16:36.780Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed.
01:16:45.760I do not want to reconcile with my family.
01:16:48.720I'm standing up for myself for the first time in my life.
01:16:51.260For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family.
01:16:55.340The performative social media posts, family events, and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into.
01:17:03.080My parents have been trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding, and it hasn't stopped.
01:17:09.180My mom canceled making Nicola's dress in the 11th hour, Victoria Beckham is a designer now, of course,
01:17:14.480despite how excited she was to wear her design, forcing her to urgently find a new dress.
01:17:19.640Weeks before our big day, my parents repeatedly pressured and attempted to bribe me into signing away the rights to my name, which would have affected me, my wife, and our future children.
01:17:29.160They were adamant on me signing before my wedding date because the terms of the deal then would be initiated.
01:17:37.080My holdout affected the payday, and they have never treated me the same since.
01:17:42.240During the wedding planning, my mom went so far as to call me evil because Nicola and I chose to include my nanny Sandra and Nicola's nonny at our table, presumably at the wedding,
01:17:53.240because they both didn't have their husbands.
01:17:55.780Both of our parents had their own tables equally adjacent to ours.
01:18:03.120Since the moment I started standing up for myself with my family, I've received endless attacks from my parents, both privately and publicly, that were sent to the press on their orders.
01:18:10.640Even my brothers were sent to attack me on social media before they ultimately blocked me out of nowhere this last summer.
01:18:15.640My mom hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance, to a romantic love song in front of our 500 wedding guests.
01:18:24.780Mark Anthony called me to the stage where in the schedule was planned to be my romantic dance with my wife, but instead my mom was waiting to dance with me.
01:18:33.180Instead, she danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone.
01:18:38.660I've never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.
01:18:43.520We wanted to renew our vows so we could create new memories of our wedding day that bring us joy and happiness and not anxiety and embarrassment.
01:19:46.500My thought on it is this is why my husband hates social media because he's like, social media has ruined culture.
01:19:52.940And while I agree that there are moments like this where you see it, there is also good with social media.
01:19:59.180So that being a caveat, I think that we've reached this weird era where it's like we, instead of handling things privately, and I get that they're celebrities, so things are a little different.
01:20:10.400It's like royalty, but I've gone through stuff with family that was never made public, that was kept private, and we handled it, and relationships were broken, and a couple were restored.
01:20:21.140But we didn't air public, our public underwear, you know, is what this feels like.
01:20:26.740I don't know where to stand on it, and I think it makes the public uncomfortable because now the onus is on us to take a side, and we don't even know what's going on.
01:20:34.600So I think that this is where airing public dirty laundry like this just feels uncomfortable and wrong, and we just want it to kind of be private.
01:20:44.500And I know that celebrities are from a different world, but I don't know.
01:20:47.680It makes me feel like I'm supposed to take a side, and I don't even know what's going on.
01:20:51.180I mean, it's one of the reasons why, you know, when I started to become more public, and then we had kids, it was very clear to both Doug and to me we would not be putting them out there at all for consumption.
01:21:04.800You know, to this day, it's very hard to find a picture of my kids on the internet.
01:21:07.560Like, only one publication did it a long time ago when they were little, and that's by design because we're religious about it.
01:21:13.300We don't think just because we've chosen to be in the public eye they should have to do it.
01:21:16.820Now, the Beckhams went a different way, but I will also say in their defense, they're the Beckhams.
01:21:22.600I mean, it would have been really hard, you know, and I think the same about Tom Brady and Giselle.
01:21:27.480Like, they're not going to have their kids show up at the Super Bowl and watch Tom Brady, you know, like, not going to have their kids show up at the World Cup and watch David Beckham.
01:21:35.520So it's like, it is hard to maintain the privacy when you're a megastar like those guys are.
01:21:41.280I also think that one of the things that he said in that post that I read yesterday was about the branding, making your family a brand.
01:21:49.580And I've even seen small little social media accounts like cute homeschool moms do that where, like, I don't know if you fully understand that you're creating a brand versus a family and you're having your kid play a part and fit them into this picture.
01:22:04.200And I think that's the lesson in all of this, even for, you know, us normal little moms, is just to be careful about how we represent our families and our kids.
01:22:14.560And we also think ahead about, you know, our kids will live the Internet's forever.
01:22:18.200So they live with the images that we push out.
01:22:20.700And I think it is a caution to not make your child your brand.
01:22:25.340Yes, I never felt it was important enough to have strangers tell me how cute my kids were to sacrifice their privacy, their anonymity, and their right to grow up without the public lens on them all the time.
01:22:41.360Obviously, things were different in the Beckham family, and you can feel this kid's resentment well.
01:22:46.280Yeah, I can sympathize with everything you guys are saying, but I also kind of look at it and I'm like, is this kid going to return all the money from his family?
01:22:53.900Is he going to give up everything that they've given him and all that?
01:22:56.540Or is he just going to come on social media and start crying about it?
01:22:59.620You know, it feels kind of like a loser mentality.
01:23:02.020Now he can, because he married an heiress.
01:23:03.760Exactly. It's like loser mentality, in my opinion, where he's coming out and now saying this after all these years and putting this out there when he feels safe and confident enough.
01:23:12.460And, you know, everyone, anxiety and stress and all that, that's all the rage now.
01:23:16.620You know, everyone wants to hear about how stressed you are because of all these things.
01:23:19.980And it's just like you look back in history and think about like actual monarchs and empires and family drama within them.
01:23:28.080And I can't imagine these people were going to the common folk and saying, look at all how stressed my dad made me about these things.
01:23:34.820You know, and maybe that's a weird example.
01:23:36.880But honestly, like it just feels so fake and nonsensical, like talking about choosing a side.
01:23:41.580I have no side because I think they're both just ridiculous people that we shouldn't worry about whatsoever.
01:23:46.320I kind of have a side because I mean, I'm biased, obviously, because I have three kids.
01:23:51.980But I think you should respect your mother and father.
01:23:54.820I mean, even if they're imperfect, even if they're doing things that bother you, I think you should respect your mother and father, especially when they're public figures.
01:24:04.520That stuff he wrote about Victoria Beckham at the wedding was meant to humiliate her.
01:24:22.180I can't totally take him at face value.
01:24:24.760But she seems desperate to have her son in her life, Britt.
01:24:28.980And maybe she's not handling it perfectly.
01:24:30.700I would hope a child would remember that.
01:24:32.800And even though he's madly in love with the new wife, and maybe there's some friction there, like to keep some grace there for the mother and father who raised him and obviously adore him.
01:25:57.680And I'm so I shout out to my mother-in-law, who I know is listening to this, who has done the most incredible job of being the most loving mother-in-law and never, never causing any issues in our marriage.
01:26:11.520She loves my husband as her son, and she loves me as a daughter and has always encouraged and strengthened, you know, our marriage, but has never interfered or meddled to make it where he has to pick one side or another.
01:26:26.020And I think part of the—my mother-in-law always used to say, you know, the rule about, like, no more than a three-day visit, like, fish and visitors go bad after three days.
01:26:36.800But she—but the one thing she—we lost her last April, but the one thing she always said was that—she was wonderful.
01:26:44.880She never gave advice unless you asked it.
01:26:47.940Like, she would never just, like, weigh in on something she saw you doing with the kids or she saw Doug and I discussing or debating or even, like, big career moments that she was living through with me, tumultuous stuff.
01:27:01.540If I asked her, she would give me her opinion, but she never offered it gratuitously, which I do think helped avoid resentments between us.
01:27:13.160What do you think, Will, is the man on this panel?
01:27:15.460Yeah, I mean, I'm not married, so I don't have, you know, mothers-in-laws and these kind of things.
01:27:19.280But I think what you guys are saying is spot on.
01:27:21.060I think that right now in America, there is a problem with young men actually being too attached to their moms and not actually kind of leaving the coop and going out and doing things on their own and being too dependent on that feminine energy from their mother.
01:27:34.460Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung both talk about this quite extensively about staying with your mother for too long.
01:27:39.400So I think you do have to be willing to do that.
01:27:41.460And I think that if a mom can't handle that, that that's what you're going to do, then there's probably some validation needs that she has on her part that she needs to address herself.
01:27:48.520Oh, I'm definitely going to make sure my children do not read Freud or Jung.
01:28:11.940They get people the medications they need fast and at a fair price.

01:30:16.960I now have my very own channel on Sirius XM.
01:30:20.100It's called the Megan Kelly Channel, and it is where you will hear the truth unfiltered with no agenda and no apologies.
01:30:26.240Along with the Megan Kelly Show, you're going to hear from people like Mark Halperin, Link Lauren, Maureen Callahan, Emily Drashinsky, Jesse Kelly, Real Clear Politics, and many more.
01:30:35.200It's bold, no BS news, only on the Megan Kelly Channel, Sirius XM 111, and on the Sirius XM app.
01:30:48.940That's Brit Mayer and Will Witt together.
01:30:51.040Okay, guys, so I mentioned Megan Markle as an exception to the rule that the mother of the groom has to bow down in a way to the woman who's being added to the family.
01:31:01.320Of course, Prince Harry's mother passed, but his stepmother is the Queen of England, and so she bows to no one.
01:31:08.500So, in any event, the dynamics are different.
01:31:10.580But Megan Markle is in the news today, and there is an interesting headline.
01:31:14.780The headline is, sadly, with love, Megan, her Netflix series on how to be a mini Martha Stewart will not be coming back for a third season.
01:31:26.660And, of course, the dirty little secret with all of this is there actually was no second season either.
01:31:35.720There was only the first season, which as soon as it wrapped and hit air, they had her announce, oh, I'm getting a second season, which were just additional episodes she had already taped.
01:32:00.160I didn't actually wind up watching anything more than that first season, which Maureen and I parodied in one of my favorite things we've ever done on our channel.
01:32:06.700And now they say, because things are ranked so poorly, her show first debuted in March of 2025.
01:32:16.440It ranked 383rd on the Netflix list with 5.3 million global views in the first half of 2025.
01:32:25.260But when season two debuted last August, it didn't even make the list of the streamers' top 10 that week and kind of just crapped out.
01:32:35.920So no season three for With Love, Megan.
01:32:39.740Instead, she's going to be focused on building her lifestyle brand as ever.
01:32:45.820So are we officially over, Megan Markle?
01:32:48.700I feel like this might be the nail in the coffin.
01:33:01.360I mean, I think it's honestly with a lot of these things going on in movies, art, TV, things like that,
01:33:07.100I do think there's actually a shift happening in that where people don't want this kind of, how would you say, fakeness that's in all of these things now.
01:33:15.520I mean, a lot of it, you know, I think there's a big turnaround.
01:33:17.480I think people are starting to realize that this leftism and wokeness and fakeness that we've put into our art and culture right now has not been successful.
01:33:25.620And I think there's going to be a big renaissance of people who are getting into these fields right now who are going to start making things in a much more better and diverse, in the way that I mean actual good diversity, type of way, versus what we've been seeing for the last 10 years.
01:33:40.520And I think Megan Markle was just a fossil of that era of these types of people who we see right through as nonsense.
01:33:47.620That's a very interesting take on her, Brett.
01:33:50.920It's basically her inauthenticity is what doomed her, as opposed to her narcissism, her disrespect, her neediness, like that, just to boil it down to her inauthenticity.
01:34:01.520Yeah, I was actually in the UK just a couple months ago.
01:34:05.040My producer and I went over there, and we had an opportunity to just kind of on the ground, not about Megan Markle.
01:34:10.960That's not why we were there, but in casual conversations.
01:35:26.420And you have to, you know, you have to call her that.
01:35:28.520It doesn't feel like someone you want to hang with.
01:35:30.280So I think in America, it's that we don't feel like she's raw.
01:35:33.740But in the UK, they don't like her because she's disrespectful and she's arrogant.
01:35:37.740So it's interesting that she's lost both sides of the pond on this.
01:35:42.820You don't think it's authentic to when you walk into a house that she's visiting and she's the only one in there other than like the maid for them to have to call out the Duchess of Sussex.
01:37:48.000Like, you don't have to talk about these things and say anything.
01:37:50.780And there will be no bad race relations in this country like the way these people proclaim that there are.
01:37:55.180But they keep bringing them up and saying things like that and pitting us against each other, making it so that now I have to be here looking like if I say, oh, I only want to buy from white people, then I look like this horrible person.
01:39:07.600And I actually avoid those because they annoy me because I think it's a part of this culture that is so obsessed with race and pitting men against woman that I just want a good pair of denims.
01:39:18.000And if it's American made, that that's where it ends for me.
01:39:22.960Last but not least, in California, they are seriously considering a wealth tax that would tax individuals with a net worth over one billion.
01:39:32.720A one time five percent tax on their total wealth, which would include unrealized gains.
01:39:39.360So if you've made money on the stock market, but you haven't actually cashed in the stock, they're going to tax you on that.
01:39:45.300And it would apply to those who are residents as of January 1st, 2026.
01:39:52.340Like, if you live there on the first of this year, you're screwed.
01:39:55.120This is actually really scary and I would argue illegal.
01:39:58.660I think it's going to face some serious legal challenges.
01:40:01.140But here's Kara Swisher, leftist, who is angry at the billionaires who are already leaving California over this.
01:40:10.140And I think what it is, it specifically targets about 100 people, I think it is, who are threatening to leave California, except for Jensen Huang, who's apparently staying.
01:40:21.240One is, you made your, and I said it to one this weekend, I said, you made all your money in California, you ingrateful piece of shit.
01:40:30.040You could figure out a way to get, pay more taxes and we deserve the taxes from you, given you made your wealth here.
01:40:37.440The second thing is, yes, there are different ways to do this, but the length of time it would take, the kind of vehemence you would fight, whatever happens, means nothing would happen.
01:40:46.380So why don't we just do shock and awe at this point?
01:40:49.000Because you don't seem to be, you know, availing yourself to thinking that you owe your state something more.
01:40:57.720So if a billionaire who's paid money on all of his wealth as he's built it, Will, doesn't want to give 5% of his entire net worth, he's an ungrateful piece of shit, says Kara Swisher.
01:41:08.480She said, you were working in California and made this money.
01:41:11.220She said, you made the money, which should be the indicative thing right there, that if you made the money, why do you have to get, what entitlement does the state have to any of that money that you made, right?
01:42:01.580And as slimy as that little guy is, he has been one of the first to come out against this California wealth tax and said that this will destroy California even more than it already is.
01:42:10.640Because you take the billionaires out, then you take out the opportunity for job growth and creation.
01:42:14.940And it de-centivizes living in California if you have money and ideas.
