![Wanted: Suspects for Commercial Burglary in the 12th District [VIDEO]](https://thephillypi.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Wanted-Suspects-for-Commercial-Burglary-in-the-12th-District-VIDEO-330x220.jpg)
The conservative movement is officially in a civil war, and Megyn Kelly just dropped a tactical nuke on the gatekeepers.
In a move that has the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) absolutely foaming at the mouth, Kelly is calling out the “censorship industrial complex” within the right. She’s naming names—specifically Ben Shapiro and Bari Weiss—accusing them of actually creating the very antisemitism they claim to fight by trying to cancel anyone who questions Israeli policy.
The “Making Antisemites” Reality Check While Shapiro and Weiss have spent the last few weeks trying to excommunicate voices like Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, Kelly is flipping the script. In a viral Vanity Fair interview, she argued that the aggressive labeling of every critic as an “antisemite” is backfiring spectacularly.
“They are making antisemites,” Kelly said bluntly. “Tucker is not making antisemites. They are.”
Her point? Young Republicans are waking up, the country is turning, and the old-school tactic of “shaming people into silence” is hitting a brick wall.

The Shadow of the Charlie Kirk Tragedy This isn’t just Twitter beef; the stakes are heavy. Following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the movement has fractured. While Candace Owens has raised massive questions about international involvement in the hit, Shapiro used the AmFest stage to launch a Buckley-style “excommunication” of the new right.
Shapiro didn’t just stop at Owens; he went after Kelly, Carlson, and Bannon for “platforming” her. But the vibe shift is real: when Shapiro tried to hand-wave the USS Liberty incident as an “irrelevant mistake” at AmFest, the audience wasn’t buying it, and Tucker Carlson was there to call out the deflection.
“Nice Try”: Kelly Claps Back at the ADL The ADL tried to “check” Kelly on X, posting a thread (with replies turned off, naturally) to condemn her comments. Kelly didn’t blink. She fired back with a masterclass in modern media posture, telling the ADL:
“Nice try but these labels don’t work anymore. Instead of attacking me they should listen to me. Or keep on keeping on & create more enemies!”
The “Israel First” Label Sticks Kelly isn’t backing down from calling Shapiro’s brand of conservatism “Israel First,” arguing that the effort to “cancel” her from the movement won’t work. While pro-Israel trolls have resorted to calling her “Grandma Groyper,” Kelly is leaning into the friction, signaling that the days of the ADL and the Daily Wire setting the boundaries of “acceptable” conservative speech are officially over.
Straight Talk Summary: Megyn Kelly is calling out Ben Shapiro and Bari Weiss for using “antisemitism” labels to silence conservative critics of Israel. She argues that this heavy-handed censorship is actually fueling resentment and creating the very problem they claim to solve. After the ADL tried to intervene, Kelly told them their labels are “dead” and warned that if they don’t start listening, they’ll only create more enemies.
