Patrick's Day. I'm sure we'll be celebrating later. Meanwhile, they're not celebrating over on Team Blue because the tensions on that side of the aisle, as I said, are rising and quickly. By the day, there's like there's a civil war happening right now within the Democratic Party. And there are calls to oust longtime Senate leader Chuck Schumer. Chuck Schumer, what? He was untouchable.

73.16 - 99.29 Megyn Kelly

Well, maybe not. New polls show record low support for the Democratic Party. Plus, a former first lady steps into the world of podcasting and totally bombs. We'll get to that with Michelle Obama. Joining me now, my pal Glenn Greenwald. He's host of Rumble's System Update. When it comes to grocery shopping and meal planning, it's often stressful and time-consuming.

Great to be with you, Megan.

170.05 - 191.62 Megyn Kelly

OK, so this is very interesting what's happened to the Democrat Party. This morning on The New York Times is The Daily Podcast. They likened it to what happened with Republicans in 2009, 2010, after Barack Obama won in a sweeping victory and won all, you know, the House, the Senate and the White House. And the Tea Party was born. And, you know, health care was shoved down our throats.

Chapter 2: Why is Michelle Obama's podcast struggling to find an audience?

1298.952 - 1320.481 Glenn Greenwald

And they infuse that into Tim Walz. And there's a lot of Democratic Party leaders who have that sort of hesitation when they speak. And even the ones who are now trying to say, like, let's fight, let's fight is an easy thing to say. That's still, again, saying we're not Trump. We have to resist what Trump is doing. But what would you be doing? You know, what do you want to see different?

1321.221 - 1337.874 Glenn Greenwald

And they still seem just very petrified to say out of fear of offending voters and donors and consultants in the media. And that ultimately is the thing that not political junkies, but just like ordinary citizens who pay some attention to politics, but not constantly. That's the thing they feel more than anything.

1339.758 - 1359.974 Megyn Kelly

All right, so two men sensing an opportunity and clearly maneuvering to exploit it. That would be Gavin Newsom of California, who's now launched his podcast where he's having on conservative stalwarts. Well, Bannon says he's not a conservative. He's a populist. He's an America first populist. But Charlie Kirk is conservative. Those are two of his first two guests.

1360.394 - 1366.539 Megyn Kelly

I have to say I'm really against this. Charlie's going to be on tomorrow. I'll talk to him about it. But I just think what's happening now,

1367.66 - 1390.744 Megyn Kelly

is he's training for 2028 against JD Vance and every conservative who goes on that podcast is helping him they're all helping him train I don't it's like training Drago instead of Rocky like why are you doing that you're training the wrong person this person actually doesn't respect you or your ideals you're not going to change his mind you're not going to change the minds of the people who listen to his show you're just going to help him so anyway that's my feeling on it but in any event

1391.264 - 1410.339 Megyn Kelly

I see what he's doing. He's trying to look like he's, you know, moderating toward the center. He's not quite as far left. He's hearing people out. He's taking more reasoned positions on things like boys and girls sports and so on. OK, that's what he's doing. And then there's Chris Murphy from my adopted home state of Connecticut, who is an absolute nobody about a year ago.

1411.38 - 1434.948 Megyn Kelly

But then he apparently fell in love with some hard left media person. wannabe executive who's backed by Soros. And she's helping him on his social media. I don't know when their relationship started. I'm just going to say he's still married. He says he separated from his wife in November. No one's filed for divorce.

1435.529 - 1462.487 Megyn Kelly

And yet he's reportedly, according to Semaphore, in this relationship with this young hotshot female media person. In any event, his social media presence has certainly shot up. gotten better. And now he's suddenly gone from this milk toast. Oh, gee, golly gee willikers guy to fucking bad day, which he which he said the other day he tweeted out after the after the Chuck Schumer thing.

1462.787 - 1469.711 Megyn Kelly

Let me just give you a before and after. This is just November. And here's a post that he made on Election Day.
