Hey everyone, I'm Megan Kelly. Welcome to the Megan Kelly show. NPR is trying to explain how they got their story about Justice Samuel Alito retiring so wrong. And it is raising

0:23.9

more questions than answers. Wait until you hear their explanation. This whole thing feels like a

0:32.1

punk. Like, am I dreaming? Did this really happen? Plus, we've got a lot of thoughts on Serena Williams and her return to Wimbledon.

0:40.4

She thinks she's the Queen Bee. And I'm sorry to break it to you, Serena. Those days have come and gone.

0:47.1

Keros ran on abolishing ICE, on Medicare for all, on her fervent opposition to U.S. support for Israel, and on a trans bill of rights, which she posted on her campaign website.

1:53.7

I mean, that's kind of par for the course for these Democratic socialists.

1:58.2

As we discussed when the three won in New York City, the official DSA platform
