Ilhan Omar speaks from a car, asking supporters for small campaign donations and saying she is pushing back against intimidation by Trump and his administration. Megyn Kelly uses that appeal as the starting point for a sharply critical discussion of Omar's financial disclosures.
The segment drew nearly 300,000 views in eight hours, already well beyond Kelly's usual full-day audience for regular videos. Its comment section also exceeded the channel's usual first-day volume several times over.
Washington Free Beacon reporter Andrew Kerr joins Kelly to explain his reporting on the disclosures. He describes a steep increase in reported asset valuations and contrasts the valuation of a winery with his reporting that the business had struggled to pay its top winemaker. Those financial assertions are Kerr's account, presented in an interview and commentary segment.
Unlike Kelly's earlier coverage of a reported investigation, this upload puts Omar's own campaign appeal on screen before turning to the financial questions. The appeal appears near the beginning; Kerr's discussion of the disclosure forms starts around seven minutes in.
