Megyn Kelly Claims ‘Israeli Representatives’ Tried to ‘Buy into’ Her Show

 

Megyn Kelly claimed Israeli “representatives” were the only foreign entities to ever try and buy into her show while issuing a stern warning to her critics.

Kelly spoke with Alex Bruesewitz, an advisor to President Donald Trump during his 2024 campaign, on The Megyn Kelly Show on Friday and during talk about critics of Israel’s government being dismissed as being a “paid operative” of Qatar, Kelly said she’s never accepted money from foreign entities for her show.

“I’ve literally never taken a dollar from any foreign entity, at all. Nothing. Not one dollar of advertising on the show and the only one who ever sought to buy into the show was on my tour and those were Israeli representatives, which is fine. They’re allowed to try. We said no. But, like, I don’t know anyone in Qatar,” she said.

Kelly then issued a warning to her critics, singling out Brad Parscale, who briefly ran Trump’s 2020 reelection campaign, and prominent Israel activist and MAGA influencer Eyal Yakoby.

Parscale and his company Clock Tower X are being paid by Israel to conduct an influence campaign, according to according to US Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) filings, Time reported this week. Vance discussed this “influencer” campaign and being on the wrong end of it himself during an appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast.

Kelly warned that “one round of discovery” would reveal who is being paying pro-Israel activists who attack her and others.

She said:

I have my genuine held opinions. We barely even do a ton of foreign policy on this show. It’s such a weird knee jerk response to be like, “you’re bought and paid for by foreign influence.” Go ahead. Who? Who exactly? Who paid me? In what form? Honestly, if ?i had the time, I’d be suing all of these losers, and I’ll tell you what, it’s just a matter of time before somebody sues Brad Parscale and/or Eyal Yakoby and starts getting to the bottom of who is paying whom for what? What exactly those contracts allow, require, or have produced. I mean, this is so easy. One round of discovery in a litigation and we will know it all so they really better tread carefully because a lot of these tweets are defamatory, absolute falsehoods meant to disparage you and sooner or later they’re going to cross the wrong person and you mark my words, there will be a litigation and we will see it all.
