Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show. The fellas from Ruthless will be here in just a bit with the latest on Trump's feud with the Pope, plus a controversial scene involving Sidney Sweeney from the season premiere of the hit HBO show Euphoria. They have her dressed as a sexy infant. That's sick. That's beyond effed up. There should be absolutely no such thing in modern America, cinema, big screen or small screen. It's disgusting, and it says a lot about the creator of this show. We'll get into it. And there is a disturbing photo that they're using to promote it. First, though, the latest with the dramatic and swift downfall of Eric Swalwell. Yesterday, we did a deep dive on all the allegations against him.

You should listen to that. It's the second hour of the show, and we've gotten a lot of very positive feedback on it because it goes through everything. each woman's account and exactly what she's alleged, what their patterns are, and what the arguments are on his behalf and, of course, obviously on the women's. We told you that the Democrat congressman had dropped out of the race to be California's next governor amid sexual misconduct allegations. And if you want to know what he's really been accused of, you go back and listen to that. Since then, though, the pressure only increased on Swalwell, and he announced last night he's also resigning from his seat in Congress. That was a question we and many others had been asking.

Why is he fit to be a U.S. House member but not California governor? In about 30 minutes, we are expecting a press conference where a new accuser is set to reveal more. about what Swalwell allegedly did to her. We don't know whether this is somebody who's been represented in the CBS piece at all. That's really the one, the CNN piece, I should say. And CBS did a piece this morning, which we had, in which we had two accusers speaking out for the first time. So we're getting, they're coming out of the woodwork and we're keeping our, finger on the pulse so that we can figure out what the narrative is and make sure we're not having duplicates here that were reported as new accusers. But there was a woman on CBS this morning who seems, honestly, like she handled this very well.

Her name is Annika Albrecht, and she says Swalwell began sending her inappropriate messages I think while she was still in, was it college, right? Still sending, was sending her inappropriate messages. While she was still in college, after they had a group event with him as like their congressman, and then an individual message popped up from him to her after the event, and ultimately he invited her to meet him at a hotel.

Annika Albrecht was still in college when she says she got what she thought was a big break. California Congressman Eric Swalwell offering to stay in touch after meeting with her student group in Washington, D.C.

He offered to mentor me. Wow. That was, as someone who knew virtually nothing about politics at the time or no one, that was just an incredibly generous offer that I felt very lucky to have. She says Swalwell created a group chat with all the students and then added her as a friend on the messaging app Snapchat. She says Swalwell, who was then in his late 30s, started out talking politics, but his messages soon turned flirtatious. Ultimately, it reached a point where he invited me to a hotel to meet him. It was very clear what the connotation was. At that point, I completely stopped responding. What I keep thinking back to is how lucky I am that I didn't go to that hotel.

Good for her. She knew it. This reminds me of my interview with Pamela Anderson. She sat on my set when I was at NBC and it was the height of the Me Too movement. I mean, she's Pamela Anderson. Hello. Virtually every man in Hollywood took a shot. She was like the world sex symbol during the peak of her fame post Baywatch. And she was doing barbed wire and all that. Um,
