Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly heaped praise on Infowars’ Alex Jones for being right yet again, after the DOJ charged the Southern Poverty Law Center with funneling money to members of white supremacist groups who organized the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville.
“You mentioned Alex Jones. So, he and I have a very interesting history together,” Kelly told guest Russell Brand on Wednesday’s The Megyn Kelly Show. “But I have to tell you, even at our worst, in terms of our fighting, I always said he has been right about so much.“
Kelly recounted her NBC hit piece on Jones in 2017, and how he turned the tables by releasing recordings of their phone conversation where she lied when she repeatedly reassured him the interview would be fair and balanced.
“So anyway, then he taped me, he released the tape, it just was like this crazy, crazy ass shit time in my life,” she recalled, adding, “But having said all that, it’s water under the bridge. And I’ve been watching what Alex Jones has been doing lately, and I actually really appreciate it. And I think he’s been doing great shows and his messaging around the whole Israel thing has been must-see. And I mean, like I said from the beginning, he’s been right about a lot. “

Kelly next highlighted the SPLC recent federal indictment, charging them with paying a white supremacist group informant who helped organize the Charlottesville protest, and how Jones called it correctly from Day 1.
“Just today, there was a big piece of news last night, I don’t know if you saw, Kash Patel announced that the Southern Poverty Law Center, the SPLC, which is supposed to be this great group that protects America from racism…That they have been paying, paying members of the Ku Klux Klan, of the Aryan Brotherhood to go infiltrate…”
“And they’ve been exposed now as basically paying the very people they then look at their donors and say, pay me to protect you from that person I’m paying,” Kelly said.
She added: “Alex Jones, OK, back in August 2017, Charlottesville was a false flag run by Southern Poverty Law Center operatives who hired actors to pose as Nazis. Fucking A. The guy — I could give you so many of these by Alex Jones.”
Indeed, at the time Jones directly accused the SPLC of deploying agent provocateurs to incite violence and chaos at the Charlottesville rally in order to demonize President Trump and MAGA supporters.

Kelly went to note that after the 2017 interview, NBC fact-checkers combed through Jones’ claims and couldn’t find any inaccuracies.
“After we did my interview with him, where it did get contentious, but I spent days with him, he said so many things. They sounded crazy, Russell,” Kelly continued.
“We went back to the NBC fact-checking machine, which is good. NBC’s biased, but they’re not reckless, generally, when it comes to their reporting… They all came back true. Everybody’s like, he’s a lunatic. He says the frogs are turning gay, and they’re turning transgender. We’re like, he’s a nutcase. True, true, true, true, true. It was amazing.”
Kelly, along with Jones, was on the receiving end of a vicious Truth Social post from President Trump earlier this month, attacking the pair, Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens as “low IQ” and “nut jobs” for refusing to support the Iran war.
She has also previously admitted to coming around on Alex Jones and discovering he’s right on mostly everything.

Maybe there’s hope for Kelly after all.
Here’s a transcript of Kelly’s conversation with Russell Brand:
MEGYN KELLY (HOST): I wanted to read this to you because you mentioned Alex Jones. So, he and I have a very interesting history together. But I have to tell you, even at our worst, in terms of our fighting, I always said he has been right about so much. We had our big —
RUSSELL BRAND (GUEST): Would he attack you sometimes, or did you attack him?
KELLY: No, he never attacked me.
BRAND: Because you can do an attack once in a while.
KELLY: I went, I went — I can definitely do an attack, but I went to interview him while I was in NBC to do an in-depth profile on him. And it was not long after he had said that the Newtown families made up the murder of their children.
BRAND: Oh.
KELLY: So he was a very, very hot potato to touch at the time, but I thought it would be an interesting profile. And he had moved off of that, so I kind of thought we were just going to do a profile on Alex Jones, and we would touch on that, but it wouldn’t be the theme of the piece because he was interesting, and I knew he had gotten a lot right.
Anyway, we went there and he kept doubling down on the Sandy Hook thing, which turned the whole piece into something that did look more like a hit piece because of course I had to get contentious with him because that’s insane and wrong and it wasn’t made up. Those kids were killed.
So anyway, then he taped me, he released the tape, it just was like this crazy, crazy ass shit time in my life. But having said all that, it’s water under the bridge. And I’ve been watching what Alex Jones has been doing lately, and I actually really appreciate it. And I think he’s been doing great shows and his messaging around the whole Israel thing has been must-see.
And I mean, like I said from the beginning, he’s been right about a lot. Just today, there was a big piece of news last night, I don’t know if you saw, Kash Patel announced that the Southern Poverty Law Center, the SPLC, which is supposed to be this great group that protects America from racism and all the isms, they’ll be the first to call you out if you’re a terrible person so that everybody knows Russell’s terrible, Megyn’s terrible, stay away, they’re this or that and the other thing. And then turned into just this left-wing group that would bash anybody on the right. That’s how it’s been for years.
That they have been paying, paying members of the Ku Klux Klan, of the Aryan Brotherhood to go infiltrate — they say, oh, it’s just infiltrate, they’re like inside sources, we didn’t pay them to create the event, just to infiltrate. That’s not what the indictment says. And they’ve been exposed now as basically paying the very people they then look at their donors and say, pay me to protect you from that person I’m paying.
I’m going to use your money to pay him to cause hell, including in Charlottesville, Virginia at the Unite the Right rally that would just cause a massive headache for President Trump from the beginning of his first term, where he said because there were skinheads there, but there were also people who were just pissed off that we were pulling down statues of, like, Confederate generals or just even Christopher Columbus. And Trump said, you know what? He said, not the white supremacists, but outside of them, there were very fine people on both sides. And that quote was used against him unfairly for many, many years and still is.
Alex Jones, OK, back in August 2017, Charlottesville was a false flag run by Southern Poverty Law Center operatives who hired actors to pose as Nazis. Fucking A. The guy — I could give you so many of these by Alex Jones. After we did my interview with him, where it did get contentious, but I spent days with him, he said so many things. They sounded crazy, Russell.
We went back to the NBC fact-checking machine, which is good. NBC’s biased, but they’re not reckless, generally, when it comes to their reporting. Don’t get me wrong. I understand what happened with Russiagate. And I’m not talking about MSNBC. I’m talking about NBC. They all came back true. Everybody’s like, he’s a lunatic. He says the frogs are turning gay, and they’re turning transgender. We’re like, he’s a nutcase. True, true, true, true, true. It was amazing.
The Sandy Hook stuff was very, very wrong and untrue. It must be said again. In any event, he’s on the list, right? Like, he’s been, of course, due to his own behavior and due to just being right about a lot of the stuff that they don’t want out there, they’ve otherized him. They’ve done it to Tucker. They’re in the process of trying to do it to me. I’m a lot harder because I don’t have the conspiratorial gene that a lot of these folks have. And their conspiracies in many places have turned out to be true. So it’s like shame on me for not having more of one, but I just, I’m not built like that. I’m a lawyer. I’m a linear thinker, very, very fact based. I don’t believe anything until it’s really been proven to me with facts I can hold.
But they’re trying — they’re trying to do it to me right now and it’s infuriating. And now I’m much, much more suspicious about the narratives that I’ve been sold about many, many other people. Right? Are they really crazy and conspiratorial or do they know something? Have they hit on one of those soft spots that you’re not allowed to touch?
