Summary

Megyn Kelly opens the show by announcing her plans to continue her upcoming live tour, why it's important to continue spreading the mission after the Charlie Kirk assassination, and more. Then FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino joins to discuss what we're learning about Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin and his boyfriend who is "transitioning," the social media posts that may have signaled they had advanced warning about the attack, inside details of the assassination investigation, what was happening on the ground in Utah in the days after the murder, and more. Then Mark Halperin, host of "Next Up," and Emily Jashinsky, host of "After Party," join to discuss Karen Attiah’s firing from The Washington Post over her posts about Kirk’s assassination, the ghoulish mentality revealed by some prominent leftists, the false claims about "cancel culture" now, the corporate media's attempt to downplay the alleged “trans” boyfriend of Charlie Kirk’s assassin, the alleged killer's reported furry interests, the potential that others knew about it before it happened, and more. Then Peter Navarro, author of "I Went to Prison So You Won't Have To," joins to discuss Charlie Kirk’s legacy, the ways the left used lawfare to target him and send him to prison, and more.

Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show, live on SiriusXM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east.

0:12.2

Hey everyone, I'm Megan Kelly. Welcome to the Megan Kelly show. We're coming to you live today from Sirius XM headquarters in New York. And I want to start with something that we've been talking a lot about in my house since Charlie Kirk's assassination last week. And that is the tour that we announced last Monday, Megan Kelly Live. This is the first time we've taken the show on the road. It's a cross-country tour set to begin next month.

0:39.4

We're going coast to coast.

0:42.0

And we began selling tickets last week, and we began our promotional tour where I've just

0:48.2

been calling into local radio stations and talking about the tour and the cities

0:51.3

that's coming to.

0:52.7

And Charlie was supposed to join us on

0:55.4

one stop of that tour in California. And we paused all of our promotional efforts as soon as

1:03.3

Charlie was killed, just out of respect, first of all, and second of all, because he was in

1:09.7

a lot of the materials and the

1:11.9

ads that we were running, totally inappropriate, given what's happened. And then we had a serious

1:18.1

discussion internally with my team and internally with my family about the tour. Because as you probably know, if you listen to the show,

I don't actually go out there that often. I'm not like Charlie in that way. I'm more of a

1:36.5

private person. I know it's odd because I have a public job, but I just am more of a private

1:41.9

person and most of my spare time is spent with my family.

1:45.9

And in all of those talks, I've heard everyone's concerns and I'm well aware of the challenges that now face us in doing this.

1:54.7

And all I can tell you is there is no fucking way I am canceling one stop on this tour.

2:08.9

Not one stop. It's not that I don't have some concerns. Of course I do. I'm human. I've, as you know, have been covering the news very closely,

2:13.8

but there is no fucking way we're not doing this tour.

2:19.8

It's more important now than ever.

2:23.9

And I said to my team, at this point, you know, I don't, I don't care if every single

2:30.3

guest cancels on me.
