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 and happy Monday. I hope you and your family had a great Thanksgiving. We did. It was like the real Thanksgiving, but it felt like the fake Thanksgiving because we already had our fakesgiving with our extended family. And so it was super easy. We actually went out to this lovely restaurant and somebody else cooked, which, you know, for my family, that's a gift to us all. Caught a little bit of a cold, but I'm on the mend and now we are back with a packed show. I'm so excited it's December. For those of you who are listening, we have in the red studio now our Christmas trees, our white, well, they're green Christmas trees with fake snow all over them and little white blinky lights.
It makes me so happy. We have our Christmas decorations up already. I wonder if you do too. Doesn't it just improve your mood? Here in Connecticut tomorrow, we're supposed to get some snow. Oh, I miss snow. At heart, I'm just a Syracuse girl. That's where I lived the first 10 years of my life. I miss snow and sledding. I love Christmas. I know you do too. So let's take a moment on this December 1st. You only get some 80 to 90 to 100 of them if you're lucky in your life. And enjoy the most wonderful time of the year. And no, it is not too early to play the Christmas carols. Even my boys had to admit I'm allowed to play them now. Okay, just before we went to break, a group of Democrats dubbed the Seditious Six by the Trump administration released a video urging military members to disobey orders they think are illegal.
It came out of nowhere. No one, even the left-wing press, started... you know, asking questions about this. No one knew what the hell are the orders that they're talking about, and they didn't know. These lawmakers got embarrassed repeatedly, thinking that the media would just go along with this. Like, of course, it's Trump, so he's issued illegal orders. They didn't, and it got to the point where even Caroline Leavitt complimented the mainstream media for asking questions of these Democrat lawmakers, who then looked like morons, unable to name the alleged... Illegal order. So that's basically how it went down. And then, of course, since their friends had been embarrassed, meaning the Democrats, the media went to work trying to find some new reporting that actually would suggest there had been an illegal order.
And lo and behold, they came up with it. I mean, it's just just like. I'm sorry, but we would be remiss if we didn't point out. Can you imagine the Washington Post doing this in order to actually run cover for our Republican administration as opposed to expose one? Can you imagine if they had done something like this, this next level reporting to get to the bottom of how many orders have been issued and where and how and which one may have crossed the line when Joe Biden was the president? It's just so on the nose. We'll get into what they've come up with. Plus, the spin continues after the tragic shooting in D.C. of two National Guard members by an Afghani national last week. Joining me now to discuss it all, Mark Halperin.

Believe it or not, Christmas is sneaking up fast. Can you believe it? And let's be honest, between shopping, travel, and endless to-do lists, it can be chaos every year. But we don't have to just survive it. We can reclaim the peace and purpose Christmas was meant to bring. Somewhere along the way, Advent became a marathon of gifts, dinners, and decorations.
But what's the point if we're left exhausted and distracted? Let me tell you about Hallow.
