Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on SiriusXM Channel 111, every weekday at noon East.
Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show and Happy Tuesday. We have a great show for you today. There is more on the DSA takeover of the Democratic Party, Democrat Socialists of America that is, as a progressive battles it out with the establishment candidate in the Michigan primary today, plus a major plagiarism scandal from the youngest black professor in the history of the University of Cambridge has grown since we first brought it to you last week. Joining me now is Matt Taibbi. He's the editor of Racket News, which you can find on Substack.
You don't wait until your house is on fire to install a smoke detector. And you don't wait until the wind and rain hammer your windows and the power goes out to prepare for a hurricane. You don't reach for your seatbelt after the impact because after the crash, the hurricane and the house fire, it's too late. And in the same vein, you do not wait until the dollar goes to zero before you buy gold. It's too late then. So consider diversifying with precious metals right now because you never know what will threaten your savings next. Let me tell you, every wealthy person I know is doing this. We got persistent inflation. I don't have to tell you that. A weakening dollar, unexpected financial disruptions. You don't know what's coming, but you can take a preventative step to hedge your bets. One option, requesting a free info kit on gold from Birch Gold Group. Just text MyInitialsMK to the number 989898 This is a group with an A plus rating with the Better Business Bureau. There is no cost to you. There is no obligation. They are not big on pressuring you to do it. They just want to give you straightforward info on how you can diversify if you want to. Even with an IRA or a 401k, you can diversify just part of it if that's your preference with gold. Birch Gold is a great option to consider. All right, check it out for yourself.

Matt, welcome back. Great to see you. Before we get to all of that, we've got to start in the state of Maine. Because they continue to have serious trouble over on the Democrat side in finding their nominee to take on Susan Collins. This is a seat that they felt really good about, about two months ago, not so much anymore. So Graham Plattner was forced out of the race when multiple women came forward against him. And ultimately a woman with whom he had a relationship came forward to accuse him of rape.
He dropped out. Now they've settled on Troy Jackson to replace him. And Troy Jackson, as it turns out, Matt is married to his second cousin.
That's extremely weird, okay? That's like you and your first cousin have children. They're not married, but they're lifelong partners and they have children together.
You and your first cousin have children and those children get, well, life partners, become life partners and have children of their own. So picture your first cousin out there. You have a child. He has a child. Your children get together and have a family, including biological children of their own. I'm sorry. It's too much. Those are second cousins having relations and children together. And now he's commenting on it. This report hit a couple of days ago. Now he's speaking out. His campaign called the reporting by the main wire. It's a local outlet politically motivated blaming Susan Collins. Quote, Susan Collins will do anything to distract from the fact that she votes with Trump 96% of the time and has sold out the working people of Maine.
Personal attacks on Troy's family are shameful and desperate, but they don't add untrue Matt Taibbi. They seem to be admitting he is having sex with his second cousin and reproducing with her, which I'm sorry is just creepy. Your thoughts?

Yeah, this is something that oddly enough, even it's legal to marry even first cousins in a lot of countries in the world. I actually know a couple of second cousins who were married, but it's an odd thing. The thing that's really interesting about this is the reflexive answer. This has become the go-to answer to everything. Almost everything is either butt Trump or why are you talking about that now? It's the standard way to non-debate an issue or non-answer a question.
