The Megyn Kelly Show
Three Most Annoying Senators at Hegseth Hearing, and Pam Bondi Crushes Dems Today, with Victor Davis Hanson | Ep. 983
Wed, 15 Jan 2025
Megyn Kelly begins the show by discussing why Pete Hegseth will be confirmed as Defense Secretary after his excellent performance at the hearing yesterday, the significance of Sen. Joni Ernst already announcing her support for Hegseth, the three most annoying senators at the confirmation hearing: Tammy Duckworth, Mazie Hirono, Elissa Slotkin, their ridiculous questions and interruptions, how the female senators make other women look bad, smug CNN pundit Catherine Rampell dismissing Hegseth as just a TV host, Gretchen Carlson’s ridiculous comments pushing a false narrative, and more. Then Victor Davis Hanson, author of "The End of Everything," joins to discuss Pam Bondi crushing the Democrats at her Attorney General confirmation hearing, the hypocrisy from Hirono who refused to meet with her, the mistake by the left of underestimating her, petty and bitter Michelle Obama refusing to attend Trump's inauguration, Kamala Harris not giving the customary VP residence tour to JD Vance and his family, the terrible California leadership, breaking news about a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas to release the hostages, the effect of Trump taking office on the deal, and more.Hanson- https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/victor-davis-hanson/the-end-of-everything/9781541673526/Byrna: Get 10% Off at https://Byrna.com/MegynGrand Canyon University: https://GCU.eduFirecracker Farm: Get 10% off with code MK at https://Firecracker.Farm/Birch Gold: Text MK to 989898 and get your free info kit on goldFollow The Megyn Kelly Show on all social platforms:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/MegynKellyTwitter: http://Twitter.com/MegynKellyShowInstagram: http://Instagram.com/MegynKellyShowFacebook: http://Facebook.com/MegynKellyShow Find out more information at: https://www.devilmaycaremedia.com/megynkellyshow

Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east. Hey, everyone. I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show. We have Victor Davis Hanson coming up in just a bit. And wait until you hear the latest reporting about Mayor Karen Bass and what she was up to exactly during the deadly Los Angeles wildfires. This woman is cold stone callous.
I mean, she does not seem to give an F. We'll show you the video and play you the sound. But first... These days, personal safety is not something that can be left to chance. Whether at home, on the road, or just living everyday life, having a reliable way to protect yourself and your family is crucial. This is why Burna is the choice for many. I'm excited to tell you about Burna.
Burn is a game-changing, less lethal self-defense tool. It's compact, it's powerful, and it's easy to use. It provides the confidence to act in any situation, whether you are a gun owner who would like a non-lethal option before you get to the actual firearm, or you are someone who is uncomfortable with guns and you want something to protect yourself, but something that is not lethal.
Burna uses non-lethal rounds, tear gas, pepper, kinetic projectiles to effectively stop a threat from a safe distance. And the best part, Burna can be shipped directly to your door and it's legal in all 50 states. Burna is proudly American with products hand-assembled in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Sometimes a firearm is not the right option. What if you have terrible aim?
With burnout, you actually don't have to hit the perpetrator. If he's hiding behind a chair, you can hit the wall right behind him or all around him. And the basically chemical pellets will take him out for a time, not take him out, take him out. Burna is a powerful alternative and a lot of gun owners love it. A lot of non-gun owners love it.
It's just a very clever, thoughtful alternative or addition to your firearm. Protect what matters most with Burna. Visit byrna.com.

Burna, non-lethal self-defense, always ready.
Back at home now here in Connecticut after attending the Pete Hegseth hearing yesterday where the nominee for defense secretary knocked it out of the park. Last night after we said goodbye to you guys after a late taping following the hearing, the most important thing in this entire process happened.
Senator Joni Ernst, Republican of Iowa, who I told you on the show had been very much on the fence about Pete, came out and formally announced her support for him. It's done. He's going to get confirmed. It's over. He's in. You can start calling him Mr. Secretary. That's that's my view. Unless something catastrophic happens between now and the time the full Senate takes its vote.
We were looking at McConnell. We were looking at Collins. We were looking at Murkowski. McConnell's, of course, an enemy of Trump and Murkowski and Collins are left wing Republicans. And then we were looking at Ernst. Well, the Republicans can afford to lose three. Not four, three. If it's three, it'll be 50-50 vote in the Senate, assuming he gets no damn votes.
