Megyn Kelly marveled at the latest “incredible” developments in the several legal cases former President Donald Trump is facing.
The Supreme Court agreed on Wednesday to consider an emergency petition by Trump in which he claims he is immune from charges over actions taken while in office. The high court’s move thus delays criminal proceedings in his election subversion case.
“With the Trump immunity case being accepted by SCOTUS & what’s happening in Georgia, Trump may well have pulled the inside straight he needed to beat these cases,” Kelly wrote on X. “NY is a joke. GA is dying/severely delayed. FL ain’t happening b/4 Nov. And now, neither is J6 DC case. Incredible.”
During her SiriusXM The Megyn Kelly Show on Wednesday, Kelly also blasted the testimony of Terrence Bradley, an attorney who previously worked with Nathan Wade, the special prosecutor hired in the Georgia racketeering case against Trump.
Wade is at the center of conflict of interest accusations concerning an undisclosed romantic relationship with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. Hearings are currently being held over whether Willis should be disqualified from the racketeering case.
Kelly explained she obtained text messages claimed to be between Bradley and Ashleigh Merchant, an attorney for Trump co-defendant Mike Roman. Kelly shared some of the texts in which Merchant allegedly conversed with Bradley during the preparation of a motion court filing, saying, “I am shocked [Willis] paid [Wade] so much. How did they think they wouldn’t get caught!!!” Bradley’s alleged response was then quoted to be: “Arrogance.”
“These two lied on the stand and need to be disqualified and potentially disbarred, and they will be lucky if they are not brought up on felony charges, which requires a fine and/or jail time in Georgia,” Kelly said of Willis and Wade’s previous testimony that denied an inappropriate relationship or conflict of interest. “The Georgia state Senate is going to have its hands full, and so is an independent special prosecutor who needs to be brought in to look into these two.”
“We do need a special prosecutor — not against Trump, against Willis … to figure out whether two previously respected officers of the court took the stand and lied under oath about material facts. That’s what will make it perjury. These are material facts,” she said.
In light of the Supreme Court deciding to hear Trump’s immunity claim, Democrats expressed dismay Wednesday evening.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) took to X to slam the Supreme Court for “placing itself on trial.”
“The Supreme Court is placing itself on trial with its decision to hear the former president’s total immunity claim. It remains to be seen whether the justices will uphold the fundamental American value that no one is above the law – not even a former president,” she wrote.
