In a dramatic escalation of the partisan battle over the legacy of the January 6 attack, media personality Megyn Kelly publicly urged former President Donald Trump to pursue legal action against Hillary Clinton for her condemnation of his conduct surrounding the Capitol riot.
Megyn Kelly, a former network news anchor turned independent host, has consistently recast her public role from critic to advocate of Donald Trump as his political fortunes rose. In recent months, Kelly has challenged mainstream narratives about January 6, depicting them as exaggerated or unfairly partisan. Short video clips circulating online show Kelly asserting that Trump 'should've gone after' Hillary Clinton for what she described as a 'made-up scandal' regarding his actions on and after 6 January.
