Former Fox News mainstay Megyn Kelly scorched her ex-boss, media mogul Rupert Murdoch, and the pro-war faction of the Republican Party for “goading” President Donald Trump into conflict.
Murdoch will be long gone before Americans have to reckon with the fallout from the war, Kelly declared of her 95-year-old former employer during a heated segment on Tuesday’s episode of her YouTube show.
“He’ll be dead soon,” she said, citing Bloomberg News reports that the Australian news titan helped coax Trump into Iran.
Earlier in the segment, Kelly had rolled a clip of Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) encouraging Trump to follow through on his threat to deploy troops to Iran’s Kharg Island, a critical chokepoint for nearly all of the nation’s oil exports.
“Keep it up for a few more weeks,” Graham said before callously invoking one of the bloodiest moments in modern U.S. military history during a Sunday interview on Fox News. “We did Iwo Jima. We can do this. The Marines, my money is always on the Marines.”
