Megyn Kelly BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Megyn Kelly has been in the headlines all week, mixing political fire with media spectacle in a way few in the commentary game can match. Her most impactful moment came when she publicly excoriated President Trump over rumors he’s considering a pardon for Sean “Diddy” Combs, who was recently convicted of federal prostitution-related charges. According to The Independent, Kelly took to X to call Diddy a “Trump hater” and a “woman abuser,” warning that pardoning him would alienate young female voters just as the GOP is struggling to close its gender gap. She doubled down on her own podcast, The Megyn Kelly Show, insisting that a Diddy pardon would look like “a miscarriage of justice” and inflame anger over Trump’s stonewalling on the unreleased Jeffrey Epstein files. She made clear on air that in her estimation, Diddy’s conduct was indefensible and said, “He doesn't deserve any of Trump’s mercy.” That take ricocheted across social media, with outlets like HOT 97 noting the stakes for the GOP—politically, culturally, and legally—as Trump’s team keeps the option on the table.

Megyn is never just in one lane. On the podcast front, she hosted Glenn Greenwald and Walter Kirn, tackling everything from the fallout after a major NYC shooting, to narrative manipulation around Russiagate, to how culture might finally be swinging past “woke” politics. Kelly found herself weighing in—again—on the Sydney Sweeney American Eagle ad controversy, slamming what she branded as the “lunatic left” for accusing the campaign of covert white supremacist signaling, a point she called absurd on both her podcast and that went viral across TikTok and Threads.

For another blast of visibility, Kelly appeared with Piers Morgan on his Uncensored program, batting back at the perceived humanitarian façade around Gaza and mixing it with sharp barbs on Trump’s ties to Epstein. That appearance generated plenty of buzz on UK and US media Twitter, with video clips circulating widely.

Friday kept her on the front lines of political drama, as she went after US Attorney General Pam Bondi during a Tampa event with Turning Point USA. According to AOL, Kelly accused Bondi of teasing the public with hollow Epstein secrets and pegged her as responsible for the scandal now dogging the Trump administration from the right. She told the crowd this is the “first big scandal” of the Trump presidency to truly bother his own team and brought the house down with a call for more transparency.

Social media watchers also caught Megyn retweeting a cheeky Tiffany Fong post mirroring the Sydney Sweeney ad, drawing spirited debate about intent and subtext across Twitter and Instagram, as reported by Sportskeeda.

If you want more Megyn, she’s stacking her August podcast lineup with a slate of big names—think Tucker Carlson and Tulsi Gabbard—which IMDB touts as must-hear for anyone watching the intersection of politics and culture.

Through all of this, Megyn Kelly continues to mix tough political analysis with headline drama, leveraging her platform to drive the agenda, build cultural buzz, and remind both her critics and fans that she’s not backing down from controversy.
