Summary

Megyn Kelly is joined by Matt Taibbi, founder of Racket News, to discuss Tulsi Gabbard’s new Russiagate bombshell documents, the buried 2020 House Intel report alleging Obama directed a narrative shift around Russian interference, former CIA director John Brennan’s role in shaping the “Trump collusion” storyline, why it appears now Brennan wasn't telling the truth in his 2017 testimony before Congress about the Steele Dossier, new information about why he included faulty information, the shocking info we learned that Putin had about Hillary Clinton’s health, why he may have chosen not to release it during the election, the spin from the left, and more. Then Josh Holmes, Comfortably Smug, Michael Duncan, and John Ashbrook, the hosts of the Ruthless Podcast, join to discuss how the documents suggest Putin may have actually favored Hillary Clinton winning in 2016, how the media monetized the Trump-Russia story despite a lack of evidence, how the media and political elites bought the Russiagate hoax because they couldn't believe Trump really won in 2016, the false narratives that the left continues to believe in 2025, her viral X post after Doug Emhoff’s ex-wife Kerstin’s took a shot at her over J. Lo, the truth about Doug's history with her and other women, and more.

0:12.1	Hey, everyone, I'm Megan Kelly.
0:13.9	Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show.
0:15.4	The guys ruthless will be here in a minute, but we have got to begin with the latest stunning revelations about intelligence
0:21.8	manipulation from President Obama and his top national security officials aimed at discrediting
0:29.0	the incoming President-elect Trump and undermining his entire presidency. It's a scandal.
0:36.3	It's disgusting. Is it criminal? I don't know, but I'm very
0:41.6	certain on point one. Yesterday, the director of national intelligence Tulsi Gabbard released the
0:48.3	declassified 2020 House Intelligence Report. Okay, now just follow with me. We already talked about how in 2017,
0:57.4	the intelligence community issued this assessment. It was just before Obama left office.
1:04.3	Well, then in 2020, Trump's now president and the House Intelligence Committee issued its own report looking back at that
1:14.5	2017 Intel Community Assessment or ICA. They'd been working on it since they came into
1:22.5	power at the beginning of the Trump presidency. And by the time they actually issued it, Adam Schiff was running the committee, which is why the
1:30.2	2020 House report gets buried and we're only now seeing it today.

1:42.4	That's the one that concluded,
1:50.0	Vladimir Putin not only interfered in the election of 2016, but that he, quote,
1:58.6	aspired to help President elect Trump's election chances. That's the important one to keep your eye on. This newly released report from the House in 2020 that we're just now getting to see includes some bombshells about the Russians intel on Hillary Clinton's health, which we've never seen before.
2:14.5	If they wanted to help Hillary so badly and hurt Trump, sorry, reverse that. If they wanted to help Hillary so badly and hurt Trump, sorry, reverse that.
