Summary

Megyn Kelly opens the show by discussing the lengthy but ultimately unsuccessful peace negotiations between VP JD Vance and the Iranians, Trump’s new proposal to conduct a blockade in the Strait of Hormuz, new reporting that the blockade will actually be related to Iran's ports, Trump’s major criticism of Pope Leo XIV as soft on crime and doing a bad job after the pope criticized the war, the AI image he posted portraying himself as Jesus, the massive backlash it received even from his supporters, and more. Then Brandon Weichert, host of "NatSec Talk" on Rumble, joins to discuss what will happen next with Iran as tensions in the Strait of Hormuz escalate, the risk of military strikes resuming, whether VP JD Vance was set up to fail with the Iran peace negotiations, Netanyahu's comments about getting reports from Vance throughout the negotiations, Fox News discussing the benefits of censorship to stop certain "narratives" from changing how people think about issues, the accurate framing that Israel did help lead Trump and America into the war with Iran, and more. Then Megyn dives into the story of Rep. Eric Swalwell and the alleged misconduct with a former staffer, his California governor campaign being torpedoed in what appears to be a coordinated hit by the Democrat establishment and corporate media, questions about the former staffer's story in her CNN interview, the truth about the stories being told now by alleged victims now, the facts many in the media are ignoring, and more.

Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at New East.

0:12.2

Hey, everyone, I'm Megan Kelly. Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show and happy Monday. Big, big show coming up for you today. There's a lot of news.

0:19.8

One of President Trump's biggest critics in Congress forced to drop out of the California gubernatorial race.

0:25.9

What's really going on behind the Eric Swalwell drama?

0:30.5

But first, the latest in Iran.

0:32.6

Vice President J.D. Vance traveled to Pakistan along with Jared Kushner and Steve Whitkoff over the weekend,

0:44.1

where he negotiated with Iranian officials for 21 hours seeking to formally end the war and make this two-week ceasefire, such as it is, permanent.

0:48.3

As you know, the ceasefire is kind of not a ceasefire because even though we agreed that Lebanon would be part of it,

0:58.4

Bibi Netanyahu overruled us, and President Trump went along with his overruling,

1:04.4

and then turned around to Iran and said Lebanon was never part of it.

1:07.7

And Iran said, that's not true.

1:10.2

That wasn't our deal. That's not the deal that the

1:12.2

Pakistani prime minister announced with our agreement after we struck it. And Iran started

1:18.7

fighting back. So there hasn't really been much of a ceasefire. We're doing our part in not continuing

1:24.2

to bomb Iran. But our close ally Israel is not doing its part.

1:29.4

So we're trying to get the ceasefire enacted, first of all.

1:34.3

And secondly, we're trying to extend the ceasefire, such as it is, into a permanent peace.

1:40.5

Despite the vice president and our two envoys best efforts, there was no deal.

1:46.2

Here's Vice President Vance explaining what happened to watch.

1:49.0

We've been at it now for 21 hours, and we've had a number of substantive discussions with the

1:56.3

Iranians.

1:56.8

That's the good news.
