Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at Noon East.
Hey everyone, I'm Megan Kelly. Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show and happy Thursday. We've got a lot to get to today, including the full trailer for that documentary about Elizabeth Holmes that everyone is talking about. I I cannot wait to go see this. Plus, we've got a Katie Porter out in Alaska. Yes, a brand new Katie Porter. That's not her name, but she's another Katie Porter. She's a Democrat, and she is in contention to win this Republican seat as. These young woke staffers for her are now leaking texts to the New York Times to try to make her look bad. Why are they doing that? I I'm not gonna lie. Like part of this woman. I I'm like, is this my spirit animal? She might secretly be a Republican. Um I'll tell you why I think that.
Joining me now to react to this and so much more is the very first guest in the history of the MK show, our pod father, Glenn Greenwald. He is a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist and host of System Update on Substack. For many people starting a fitness routine, going to the gym without a clear goal or structure often leads to random exercises and minimal progress. While traditional personal training offers structured strength training, it can often be cost prohibitive and difficult to fit into your busy schedule. This is where the ladder app comes in, ladder like a ladder that you climb. It will transform your daily routine. It acts like an elite personal trainer right in your headphones. Instead of random online workouts, members receive structured workout plans built by expert coaches with new programming updated weekly.
The app automatically tracks reps and weights and features built in AI nutrition. Tracking all for less than one dollar a day. How about that? It can eliminate all the guesswork from your daily fitness journey. Remove the guesswork with ladder and get a real coach in your ear telling you exactly what to do for every workout.

Always great to see you, Megan. I'm doing well. Hope you are as well.
Yeah, so well. Okay. So I'm into this woman out in Alaska. Her name is Mary Peltola. And she's uh in contention against incumbent Dan Sullivan. Cook political reports that the race is a toss-up. She could actually win this seat. He's got a couple things going against him, including that there are two other Republicans besides Dan Sullivan on the ballot, and one of them is also named Dan Sullivan. Um so this actually could flip and be part of the Democrats' scheme to take over control of the Senate. Uh Democrats, according to the New York Times, are bullish about her chances. She's a former House representative uh to flip this seat. She's running on fish, family, and freedom. And um She also seems to be a fan of a fourth F-word that is spelled F-A-G-G-O-T, according to the staffers, though she denies that one, Glenn.
She admits apparently using retard, but she denies, forgive me, faggot. Um, interesting where the lines get drawn. But okay. So here's the story: a New York Times investigative report finds that. That she has a history of angry outbursts, high staff turnover, and alleged mistreatment of AIDS dating back to her time in Congress and continuing into her current campaign. They deny a pattern of abuse, the campaign did when asked, and attribute some incidents to grief after the deaths of her mother and husband in 2023. Multiple former staffers describe frequent angry, sometimes profane blow-ups. One incident involved Paltola allegedly shoving an aide in the chest. This what I love the most is the campaign's responses to the allegations.
Okay, there's a bunch of 'em. I I'll give you the first one here. Frustrated that she could not find a memo for a meeting, Miss Paltola shoved a male employee in the chest with one hand, causing him to stumble backward, according to a person who was there, and two others who heard about the incident soon after.
