Newsmax host Greg Kelly, doesn't believe that impeachment should be happening and
doesn't seem to think that what happened on January 6th was a big deal.
But that might be because he has a very interesting idea of what actually
happened on January 6th.
Take a look at this.
>> Lee begins tomorrow or the trial.
They already impeached President Trump.
We know it's a joke.
We know he's not responsible for what happened on Capitol Hill.
He specifically said March peacefully and patriotically.
We all heard that right.
By the way if he really did break the law they could charge him in DC Court.
They could, but he didn't, so they can't, all right?
The thing is a joke they've been lying about so
much including by the way that five people died on January 6th 2021.
It's not true, only one person died on that day.
You know it was the unarmed woman Ashley Babbitt,
unarmed woman shot and killed by Capitol police.
We've heard very, very little about that case and you know what that bothers.
>> So I don't know exactly how to respond to that.
I'm taking it seriously because Newsmax now occasionally beats Fox News in
the ratings.
So in theory they're a serious thing, but
it is not true that only one person died at least five people died on that day.
Others died afterward.
He thinks it was the only that one person.
So we had been all worried about the fact that they beat a cop to death and
tried to beat other cops to death.
But he apparently just denies that that happened at all.
What are we supposed to say in that case?
He's got tons of people watching him that I guess don't have to think about
the cognitive dissonance of saying that they support the blue.
But that they're the people who agree with them beat a cop to death because they
don't have to accept that it actually happened at all.
>> Yeah, these are outlets and pundits that didn't really care during
the George Floyd uprising over the summer about police brutality.
And all of a sudden when someone's breaking it and these are people who were
for Briana Taylor was sleeping for George Floyd who was allegedly using
a counterfeit 20 and then had a knee on his neck for seven minutes.
Those are blatant murders and now you have someone breaking into the Capitol being
shot because she was breaking through a busted window despite being told no.
And now all of a sudden they're like wow this is so tragic,
we need to talk about this more.
Yes, we should talk about police killings, but
we should talk about all of them and to to frame this as some sort of like
innocent victim I think is is a bit rich after their blind eyes for years.
So yeah from that to ignoring other people that were killed, ignoring the violence
and barbarism and destruction throughout the rest of the insurrection.
It's just so funny to see this heel turn from people like that at Newsmax.
But while we want to just kind of dismiss them as some fringe outlet, it's not.
It's becoming more popular because people are ever increasingly turning to more and
more fringe content like that because they've been thrown red meat for
years by Fox.
Once Fox finally realized, can't really do this anymore, we're getting sued,
we're losing advertisers.
Everything is starting to come into jeopardy.
Then they went to Newsmax, they go to and
they're gonna go somewhere else after that.
So this is just you've created this problem and
now they just cannibalized the mainstream institutions and they're moving on.
>> Because some whack job can say this stuff and
get away with it and other things that I wanted guns at my rally.
Okay, now I'm speaking, why would I want guns?
I don't want people having standing with guns in my rally at the Capitol.
She wasn't complaining.
And the other thing about this woman, she wanted to work for me after January 6th.
She was a big Trump fan, she wanted to work for me in Florida and
we chose not to bring her down because I got very bad things.
I hardly knew her.
>> There we go.
That's the one pull the I hardly knew her out from whenever a woman accuses you or
goes on record with all the heinous things you've done.
And of course if you didn't guess by now Donald Trump is talking about
Cassidy Hutchinson who testified earlier in the week to the January 6th committee.
And he's speaking there with Newsmax and he's saying she wanted to work with me and
also I don't know her and who and anyway I don't even think she worked for us.
She didn't have a lanyard.
And of course you've got the Newsmax host there egging him on like he was.
I don't want anyone armed even though we heard on the record Cassie Hutchinson
say that he was mad that more people weren't being let in to the demonstration,
the stop the steal rally on the 6th because they were armed.
He says I didn't want them armed and then the Newsmax host just going
yeah it's not like there were AR 15 just a few blocks.
[LAUGH] >> Yeah, he is like,
I was there I don't remember there being anything,
we were terrible, we were all lying on your behalf Mr president.
But what a great journalist to push back.
That's his follow-up question you're right, but
like here's the thing he said she wanted to work for me, right?
And he didn't hire her, but my rejoinder to that is a buddy like there
is no world in which her testifying against Donald Trump as a Republican
operative essentially makes it more likely she's ever gonna get a job.
This is all the risk.
This is way harder for her to get a job after she's gone out and
done the opposite of what this Newsmax host has done.
There's the proof there a no name moron can get any job anywhere
in conservative news so long as he doesn't do what Hutchinson did.
>> And I said well if she's no good I get somebody called up numerous people that
she's not good.
I won't say why that she's not good, but plenty of reasons.
>> Why? >> I'm not gonna say that, but
I'm gonna say that she was not respected by the people in the White House so
they thought she shouldn't go down.
I was going down to Florida with a great group of people patriots and
her name was thrown out there and they said keep stay away from her.
They said bad things about her and then I see her and
I again I hardly know who she is.
And then I see this woman getting up and
she's making up stories like one after another, but
the craziest of all was that I tried to commandeer think they used that word.
I tried to commandeer a car with Secret Service agents telling them
to take us down to the Capitol.
It was totally false and that a person can get away with it.
And then I watch the times and the Washington Post and
I watch get reviews on MSDNC and CNN.
They hardly even talk about the fact that she's been totally discredited.
>> Has she been totally discredited?
We'll get into that in a second, but so there he is.
I hardly knew her.
This is like the top aide to Mark Meadows, your chief of staff.
She was there in a lot of these rooms.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have had so much to divulge.
So clearly someone's lying and that little upturn of the eyes that's totally false.
I didn't wanna go to the Capitol and reign over my incredible mess and
try to force my way onto the floor.
I just him next to like dude with the buffalo horns, I can't
