🔥 Watch Megyn Kelly Shut Down NYT Journalist’s Narrative on Trump
“I don't give a sh*t about Trump getting handsy with somebody 20 years ago. I want someone who will close the border, which he has. I want someone who will keep boys out of my daughter's sports, which he has.”… pic.twitter.com/u14jcG3jlU

Kelly Clarkson to take over Today show.
Kelly Clarkson is set to take over Hoda Kotb’s former spot on the iconic Today sofa, an NBC insider told DailyMail.com.
The singer turned chat show host is ‘contemplating’ taking the prestigious gig, with bosses at the Peacock network desperate to keep her amid claims she’s been ‘overwhelmed’ by the work involved in her eponymous show.
A 30 Rock spy explained to DailyMail.com brass are ‘scrambling to keep’ Clarkson, after moving filming for her show to the network’s NYC headquarters at 30 Rockefeller Center in September just ‘to keep her happy.’
An offer to help host Today was also extended as a result, our source said, which the star is said to be considering carefully. As for the host’s unexplained ten-episode absence from the ‘Kelly Clarkson Show’ this month, the insider said Clarkson simply had to step away after suddenly finding herself ‘overwhelmed’.
The 42-year-old finalized her divorce with longtime husband – and former manager – Brandon Blackstock back in March 2022, and now she’s looking to spend more time with her kids, the source said.
The schedule on her current show, the source said, has made a good work-life balance difficult, the mole told DailyMail.com.
But landing a spot on Today’s fourth hour could make life easier for Clarkson, some might say.
Aside from seeing her return home an hour earlier, it would see Clarkson become part of a team, with her workload more evenly spread.
The American Idol winner’s current show requires both singing and hosting duties, starting at 11am ET. Several ‘A-listers’ are said to be interested in the role as well, another insider said.
