Summary

Megyn Kelly discusses the bombshell reporting showing FEMA directed its employees to skip over helping houses that had Trump signs, how high up the directive may have gone, the shocking numbers we're seeing Kamala's campaign spent on the Oprah town hall, the millions that went to paying celebrities, and more. Then U.S. Senator Rick Scott of Florida joins to talk about his push to become the next Senate Majority Leader, the intra-GOP fight happening between the "establishment" and "MAGA" wings, if he thinks the public campaign will help or hurt him, what he thinks of Sen. Mitch McConnell, the criticism he’s received from the right about his work in 2022 and about "red flag" laws, how he'll handle what Trump wants from recess appointments, and more. Then Ashley Hayek, Executive Director of America First Works, joins to discuss how her group ran their ground game efforts, the key counties and demographics they targeted, how Kamala was never really leading the female vote like the media said she would, the way they used authentic messaging to reach new audiences, why Kamala’s ground game was a massive failure, why Tim Walz's "stolen valor" actually moved votes, whether people turns out for Trump or were turned off by Kamala, and more.
