MUST SEE VIDEO: MEGYN KELLY INTERVIEWED BY BILL MAHER
Megyn Kelly says she pulled her children from private schools for going ‘hard left’ with ‘social justice stuff’
Megyn Kelly removed her children from private school because administrators “took a really hard turn toward social justice stuff,” the former Fox News host revealed to Bill Maher on Friday.
While appearing on HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, Kelly revisited her November decision to pull her children, sons Edward, 11, and Thatcher 7, and daughter Yardley, 9, whom she shares with husband Douglas Brunt, from their elite private schools in New York City.
“The schools have always been far-left, which doesn’t align with my own ideology, but I didn’t really care, most of my friends are liberals, it’s fine,” she said that month on her podcast The Megyn Kelly Show. “I come from Democrats as a family. I’m not offended at all by the ideology, and I lean center-left on some things.” Kelly also cited a blog post she said traveled through the parent community, allegedly at the suggestion of the school, titled If You Really Want to Make a Difference in Black Lives, Change How You Teach White Kids. “But they’ve gone around the bend. They have gone off the deep end,” she said.
During her Real Time appearance, Kelly admitted that she loved her children’s schools which were “definitely leftist” compared to her “center right” views. “But then they went hard left,” she told Maher. “Then they started to take a really hard turn toward social justice stuff.” Kelly described a “three-week experimental trans education program” that took place in her son’s third-grade class. “And it wasn’t about support,” she said. “We felt it was more about trying to convince them, like, ‘come on over.’ And the boys started to get confused.” Kelly said that she and other parents objected, which prompted an apology from the school.
