Summary

Megyn Kelly begins the show by discussing the horrific wildfires throughout Los Angeles, the lack of preparation by government leaders, how the LA fire chief was focusing on DEI and identity, and more. Then The Fifth Column hosts Kmele Foster, Michael Moynihan, and Matt Welch join to discuss the California mismanagement and subpar leadership that led to the wildfires devastation, ways this could have been mitigated, the leftists who dismiss LA wildfires damage because it only affects the rich, how un-American that point of view is, how it's absolutely false that the fires have only affected rich, the major news that Mark Zuckerberg is stopping Facebook censorship, his decision to adopt "Community Notes" like Elon Musk and X, how "fact checkers" are disappearing and free speech is winning, why the corporate media is panicking, if Trump is serious about buying Greenland and if Greenland is “MAGA,” whether he actually could use "military or economic coercion," surprising praise for the idea of buying Greenland from some, and more.

folks who are my dear friends, one of my best friends is out there, her house is gone.

fellow Americans who have been forced out of their

was necessary to be done to protect the residents from the foreseeable risk of fire.

There are three massive wildfires burning right now, being flamed by Santa Ana winds,
