The Megyn Kelly Show host Megyn Kelly has joined Sky News host Paul Murray to discuss Drew Barrymore’s awkward interview with Vice President Kamala Harris. Vice President Harris appeared on Barrymore's talk show for an interview, focusing on her family life and her role as "Momala" to her stepchildren. Barrymore affectionately referred to Harris as "Momala" during the interview, in reference to the need for Harris to provide comfort and support to the nation. “Literally there’s not a single soul who needs a Momala or wants a Momala or looks at Kamala Harris in that way.” Ms Kelly told Sky News host Paul Murray. “So this whole thing is a disgusting artificial. “It’s like one of those disgusting protein shakes where you can taste the chemicals as you're downing it’s all false and supposed to be good for you, but you know you're causing yourself cancer by sip by sip that’s how I felt when I watched those clips.”

The Megyn Kelly Show host Megyn Kelly has lambasted Columbia University pro-Palestinian activists. Ms Kelly claimed that the pro-Palestinian protestors at the university are “morons” and “unattractive”. “Why are they all so unattractive, these things are not unrelated,” Ms Kelly told Sky News host Paul Murray. "I'm telling you attractive smart people don’t behave like this, they're out there living, their thriving successful lives. "They're not going on college campuses angry and bitter because again see point one that’s why."

Former US president Donald Trump has been held in contempt and fined $USD9,000 after repeatedly violating a gag order. The judge presiding over his hush money trial said the 77-year-old breached nine violations. The judge issued a warning on Tuesday that if Mr Trump violated his gag order again would be jailed. The Megyn Kelly Show host Megyn Kelly joined Sky News host Paul Murray to discuss the latest on Donald Trump's New York trial. Ms Kelly said she believed that the judge would send Trump to Jail if he kept on breaking the gag order. “He really doesn’t like Trump and I think he would do it because these lefties have themselves convinced they're righteous and Trump's evil,” Ms Kelly said. “And he's not going to let that get out of hand in his courtroom and he's got to be the one who imposes the rule of law, even though he’s not doing that on the substance of charges against Trump. “So I do think if Trump wilfully defies him and continues attacking witnesses he might get thrown in jail and if that happens he’s going to win the election.”

Sky News host Liz Storer reacts to Foreign Minister Penny Wong's somewhat ironic plea to Iraq. In a social post Ms Wong requested the Iraqi government: 'uphold human rights of all its citizens, and abandon laws that target and criminalise the LGBTQIA+ community and its supporters'. “Our Foreign Minister has a laughable penchant for lecturing other countries on how to run their jurisdictions, and today it reached peak parody," Ms Storer said. “She requested Iraq, of all places, to basically stop being Islamic. “Penny Wong, it is a Muslim country. “What do you think you’re doing using your position in Australian government to be like, 'you guys abide by Western standards'.”

The Megyn Kelly Show host Megyn Kelly unloads on “moronic” pro-Palestinian protesters at Columbia University. “Morons leading this protest on Columbia campus actually went out there to criticise the administration for not allowing them to bring in food supplies because they're depriving them of humanitarian aid,” Ms Kelly told Sky News host Paul Murray. “She used the term humanitarian aid. “They’re basically just like the prisoners in the Gaza tunnels that’s what they’re going through right now because they can’t get unlimited cupcakes. “They’re being deprived of their civil rights as they overtook an academic building and I guess want pizza brought in or a latte.”

Sky News host Paul Murray says the video of Prime Minister Albanese at the ‘No More! National Rally Against Violence march’ is “so bad” the media have stopped showing it. “The video is so bad, it is why the media have stopped showing it to you,” Mr Murray said. “Have stopped playing it on a loop in the fashion of which they would have if it was Tony Abbott or if it was Scott Morrison who had made the organiser of the rally cry. “This is the response of a prime minister with a very, very thin glass jaw. “Do you love that?”

Sky News host Paul Murray slams Prime Minister Anthony Albanese for blaming “emotion” for his ‘No More! National Rally Against Violence march’ debacle. “We have spoken for a few days now about the prime minister sending a woman into tears after she had organised a rally against domestic violence,” Mr Murray said. “You know that the prime minister’s people have run around and tried to get everyone to look at the film and somehow it absolves him of what you can see as the reaction of the organiser who called him a liar. “I have said many times before that I think what we have seen in his behaviour, since and on that day tells us about his true character. “Rather than saying sorry, to the lady involved, instead he went for one of the worst tropes when you disagree with women, to blame emotion.”

Nationals Senator Matt Canavan has warned against the World Health Organisation (WHO) pandemic treaty claiming Australia shouldn’t be handing over more rights to international bodies. “The WHO pretty much got everything wrong about the pandemic,” Mr Canavan told Sky News host Peta Credlin. “Why would we give this discredited body … more power that’s what’s on the cards here. “This draft would give the WHO powers to provide advice on these matters, it would still require signatories to impose laws on misinformation in their own countries and we’ve seen how damaging that can be in the last couple of weeks. “We shouldn’t be handing over more rights to international bodies, our rights should be protected by our constitution and our laws not subcontracted to international bodies especially as discredited as the WHO is. “Until we have a proper royal commission, we certainly shouldn’t be signing up to a treaty like this that would potentially make things a hell of a lot worse if another pandemic came.”

Verizon Business Regional Vice President Rob Le Busque discusses rising cyber security issues. A report released today by Verizon reveals that 25 per cent of attacks in the Asia-Pacific region were motivated by espionage. “They are on the rise, both in terms of the overall number as well as the complexity and type of attacks we are experiencing here in Australia and around the world.” Mr Le Busque told Sky News Australia. “What we’ve said for many years effective protection for Australia for our economy is a partnership between enterprise government and service providers working together.” “Financially motivated organised crime groups are the vast preponderance, more than two-thirds of all cases”.

Australian Jewish Association’s Dr David Adler has compared the anti-Semitism on university campuses to features of the Holocaust. Mr Adler pointed out there are similar photographs from the 1930s of Nazis blocking Jewish students from entering universities. “This is historical fact,” he told Sky News host Chris Kenny. “It happened, and we’re seeing echoes of it in 2024, which is really scary. “We’re not the only ones making the comparison … we’ve been approached by a couple of Holocaust survivors who witnessed some of this occurring and warning us how dangerous it is in these early stages.”

Verizon Business Regional Vice President Rob Le Busque explains types of cyber-attacks. Cyber-attacks are increasing worldwide and becoming more complex; a common attack named pretexting is on the rise. “In simple terms, pretexting is pretending to be someone that you are not in order to gain information,” Mr Le Busque told Sky News Australia. “Oftentimes, we see pretexting in form of maybe an SMS or email to an employee masquerading as someone within the organisation or another person of authority. “Seeking to get login credentials or other information they can then use to compromise systems and gain access to corporate networks so they can exploit or plant malware”.

Sky News host Chris Kenny says calm is being restored after violence broke out at the University of California in Los Angeles. Hundreds of protesters could be seen sprawled across the university campus as security guards stood and observed. Fireworks were also reportedly thrown into a crowd of people as brawls took place. “We can presume it could be students who support Israel or Jewish students clashing with the protestors," Mr Kenny said. “We don’t know for certain yet.”

Women’s Forum Australia Research Fellow Stephanie Bastiaan has slammed the government’s inaction against domestic violence. This comes amid a domestic violence surge in Australia in 2024, which sparked calls for greater action from the government. “We have a government who can’t define what a woman is,” Ms Bastiaan told Sky News host Rita Panahi. “It’s all very well pouring money into domestic violence services for women when men can access them. “It’s a big problem.”

Sky News host Sharri Markson says it looks like cost-of-living in Australia is about to “get even more difficult”. Ms Markson pointed to The Australian’s latest report on the Commonwealth Bank’s rate predictions. “We’re being warned that another interest rate rise is likely,” she said. “The Commonwealth Bank has put a shock rate hike next month on the cards. “They’re saying inflation isn’t going to come down as much as expected.”

Author Douglas Murray has blasted the International Criminal Court’s attempted “political prosecution” of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. It follows reports from Israeli media outlets The Hague may issue warrants for the arrests of the Prime Minister, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and Chief of the General Staff of the Israel Defense Forces Herzi Halevi. In a statement posted to X last week, Mr Netanyahu said Israel will “never accept any attempt by the ICC to undermine its inherent right of self-defense”. Mr Murray branded the move “extraordinary” and “unwise” and could force the ICC to “destroy its own legitimacy”. “There are several things that are appalling about this,” Mr Murray told Sky News host Rita Panahi. “One is that this is being done without any fresh investigation and with no new evidence or anything like that – it’s a political prosecution, attempted prosecution. “The second thing is that this would be the first time that the ICC at The Hague would have come for a democratically elected leader and I believe that is an extraordinary step.”

Author Douglas Murray has slammed actress Drew Barrymore over her “grotesque” praise of Vice President Kamala Harris during her talk show. The Vice President appeared on The Drew Barrymore Show where the actress closely leant into Ms Harris’ face to discuss the state of US politics. “I've been thinking that we really all need a tremendous hug in the world right now,” Barrymore said. “But in our country, we need you to be Mamala of the country.” Mr Murray said the United States does not need a mum but needs an “effective president and vice president”. “We have this kind of mouthwash from the Democrat supporters in the celebrity class who pretend that actually, Kamala Harris, who can't do the jobs that she was assigned to do, will do a job that nobody could perform and nobody should perform,” he told Sky News host Rita Panahi.

Shadow Assistant Home Ownership Minister Andrew Bragg says it is “far better” for Australians to have a home in retirement. Mr Bragg said the idea that superannuation is the “only pathway to retirement” is “totally flawed”. “The key factor in your retirement is your homeownership status,” Mr Bragg told Sky News Australia. “At the moment, millennials and Gen Z’s are not going to own houses. “It is far better for people to have a home in retirement, which is why that’s our steely focus.”

Shadow Communications Minister David Coleman says the government’s “delay” in funding age verification to protect children from harmful content is “baffling”. The Albanese government has promised to deliver a range of new measures to tackle factors that increase violence against women. The measures include $6.5 million of additional funding for the eSafety Commissioner to pilot age verification to protect children from adult content. “In terms of why the delay, I don’t know, and you’d have to address that to the government,” Mr Coleman told Sky News Australia. “It is baffling to be frank.”
