0:00.0 | Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show, live on SiriusXM Channel 111 every weekday at New East. |
0:13.0 | Hey everyone, I'm Megan Kelly. Welcome to the Megan Kelly show. Is everyone nursing their Liberation Day hangover? |
0:21.0 | I just... |
0:23.6 | Okay. |
0:25.8 | There's going to be a bunch of tariffs. |
0:28.4 | Pretty much everyone is against it. |
0:31.3 | There's a strain of die-hard MAGA that is open-minded to doing something in a different way because while the system |
