Megyn Kelly is joined by Josh Holmes, Michael Duncan, and John Ashbrook, hosts of the Ruthless podcast, to discuss new information we're learning about the arrest of Sunny Hostin's son for trespassing, Hostin's hypocrisy when it comes to the law and accountability, questions about what her son was doing "running" in that sketchy area, and more.

So Sonny Hostin in this latest incident,
do you guys know the story?
Yeah.
Okay, yes, her son, who's 24 years old
and she'd really, really want you to know a Harvard grad.
Yeah, of course he is.
Got stopped by police because he was at a rail yard
in I believe New Rochelle of Westchester County.
And he said he was jogging and they said,
that's not allowed, this is private property,
you're trespassing.
And he called her.
I mean, a lot of my viewers yesterday were like, okay,
what 24 year old man calls his mommy
when he has an incident involving police officers?
If she's a former federal prosecutor or not.
He's not getting arrested for murder.
It's like, you're gonna get a citation for trespass.
Why did you call your mommy?
It's a fair question, I gotta be honest.
But whatever he did, if my son called me at any age,
I'd go, I'd help him.
But it was her hypocrisy that was so rank to me
and to a lot of the audience as well.
Just, she's constantly railing about white privilege
and just how these elite circles
of these evil white Republicans
don't allow people like her into them.
And she's worried the cops are evil and they're gonna,
she was, her son's a runner.
And she was very worried he was gonna get arrested
for no reason in Westchester as he was doing his running.
That's how it happened.
Actually, what happened is your son violated the law
and very polite police officers
actually downgraded what he did to just a citation
so they wouldn't get in more trouble
than he was actually in.
I mean, oh, the irony.
But now we actually went back and we found Sonny Hostin,
it was very interesting,
talking about the J6 pardons that Trump issued.
And don't forget, yes, there were some who assaulted cops
and that was very controversial for that pardon.
But the vast majority of the people on J6
were just trespassing.
They were just crossing into a property
which most of them didn't even know
that they couldn't go in there.
A lot of them were waved in
and she had no empathy for them whatsoever.
Okay, she did not make that distinction
in her coverage on The View.
But here she was talking in particular,
I think about the cops and pardons and trespass.
Listen here.
I was particularly, as a former federal prosecutor,
struck by the fact that he would pardon over 1,500 people,
especially those that were violent
towards law enforcement officers.
When you are a prosecutor,
you don't only prosecute someone
because they've committed a crime,
you also prosecute someone
so that you send a message to society
that this type of behavior is unacceptable in our society.
You know, I always wondered where the big crime wave
came from over the last 10 years,
but then I learned Sonny Hostin was a prosecutor.
So what do you make of it?
Because here she is,
I'll just give it to the audience who's listening now
that might not know,
but here she is again on the scene,
making sure they know she's a former federal prosecutor
and the son went to Harvard, I think, 36.
What's going on?
He was walking along the tracks.
He was on a run, on a walk,
and the gate was open and I was out.
I see.
Yeah.
On the phone with me, actually.
I'm a former federal prosecutor.
He knows, he's a Harvard grad
who teaches fourth grade geometry to some of his kids.
He's not a kid who's in trouble.
Sent in as a mistake.
I understand you have to give him a violation,
but it's something.
I think I was walking over there
and there was some, I was about to show up.
I had a big interview today and we're talking about it.
She got it all in.
Got it all in.
I'm a former federal prosecutor.
He went to Harvard.
In case you missed it, I'm on TV.
I had a big interview today.
We're all talking about,
everyone's talking about my big interview.
She played every privilege card she could.
And in the other clip,
she also mentions that he's now a Yale researcher
and then teaches fourth graders, all of it.
What happened to the important thing
about not letting somebody off from a crime
they've allegedly committed
is sending a message to all the other would-be,
in this case, trespassers.
And you heard there,
she mentioned 1,500 people have been pardoned.
And she didn't say like,
okay, I can give you the ones who just trespassed.
She had no problem with those people going to jail
or being punished disproportionately, by the way,
in the criminal justice.
None whatsoever, no sympathy whatsoever.
But Harvard's son, he needs to go away.
He needs to be exempted from going away
because he's her son, guys.
Harvard, Yale, former federal prosecutor,
on TV with a big interview.
You see how the thing works?
Yeah, has there ever been a bigger own goal
in the history of politics than the left-wing lunatics
demanding body cams on police officers?
It's so true, it's so true.
They would have the American people believe
that every police officer is some racist,
bloodthirsty lunatic trying to shoot black people.
And every time we see the body cam footage,
you always are greeted by these police officers
who are nothing but polite
and are just trying to deescalate a situation here.
So that is always what struck me
as the funniest part of all of these things is BLM.
And in 2020, with the George Floyd protests and everything,
they made you think that there was a genocide
against black people in this country.
And now, all these years later,
the American people have seen so much body cam footage,
it's like, you know what?
Maybe it's the left-wing lunatics who are the problem,
not the police officers.
That's really well said.
For the first time since World War II,
our national debt has exceeded the gross domestic product.
America's reckless government spending
keeps catching up with us.
Higher inflation, higher prices,
higher cost of living expenses,
and higher interest payments on the national debt.
Every dollar Washington spends on interest
is a dollar it has to tax, borrow, or print.
Smart retirement planners prepare for potential setbacks,
and they can do that by diversifying
with a time-tested asset known for weathering the storm.
Consider Physical Gold from Birch Gold Group.
Text MK to the number 989898,
and Birch Gold will send you a free info kit
on converting an existing IRA or 401k
into a tax-sheltered IRA in Physical Gold.
You don't pull the ripcord on your parachute once,
you've already hit the ground.
Don't wait for economic turbulence to diversify.
Text MK to the number 989898,
and consider owning some gold from Birch Gold.
By the way, you know who they interviewed on June 16th?
JD Vance.
So she was clearly trying to play up,
I'm an important person, big interview today,
everyone's talking about it.
I mean, how disgusting is she?
She was trying to play the view card there.
I'm a TV person.
I do interviews and everyone knows me.
And my kid, this kid, this 24-year-old man,
you know, he's never been in trouble before.
Okay, that's fine,
you can say never been in trouble before.
The Harvard-Yale thing was hit repeatedly
because of her privilege.
Honestly, she's so blind to the fact
that she's swimming in it, she's dripping with it.
It's coming out of her eyeballs, her privilege.
All she can see is the white privilege
that she finds everywhere,
including the neighborhood she chose to move to
right before she told the world
they were a bunch of racists
who were probably gonna target her son with a phone call
just because he was running while black.
Yeah, no, I mean, it goes to your point, Duncan.
You can only imagine what that story would have looked like
if there was not body cam footage, right?
That would have been a feature on The View
for quite some time.
Totally, it's a great point, though.
I think you really hit the nail on the head here, Megan,
in that what I've come to realize
is the folks who talk the most about privilege
are the people who are most interested
in exercising extrajudicial privilege when they have it.
It's this misconception of society itself
that your place within it
makes you above or below the law in some way.
And I feel badly for people who think this way
because it doesn't, and it shouldn't.
But people like Sonny Hostin who have said,
there's white privilege, class privilege,
any kind of privilege, everyone else,
as long as I disagree with their politics,
is subjected to their privilege,
but I'm gonna use it like a ammo
when I have that opportunity,
and I'm gonna drop the full resume on you.
I'll do the federal prosecutor,
I'll do The View, I'll do Harvard, Yale,
I'll do all of that stuff when it suits me and my family.
Yep, exactly.
Like one of those fourth grade boys
from one of the boroughs that he's allegedly tutoring,
if they'd been caught,
if let's say it's like their 13-year-older brother
who got caught on those railroad tracks by himself
who didn't have a former federal prosecutor
or View host mom to call,
those cops, they probably would've just given them
the citation, whatever,
and they would've been in the criminal justice system.
Her son got off with a lesser penalty
because it was gonna be a misdemeanor
because they were being nice.
They were being nice to him
because she played so many cards,
but she'll never admit that, right?
She's pissed.
You can tell she's angry at the cops.
And you're right, if there hadn't been a body cam,
who knows what she would've been alleging.
And by the way,
I've had more than one person raise with me privately.
What was the son actually doing there?
Do we fully accept that he was just jogging in the rail yard?
Because I will say it's a little odd.
I lived in Westchester,
not far from New Rochelle for a couple of years.
It's a beautiful, beautiful county.
There are so many places you can run
rather than a dilapidated rail yard.
It's a little strange.
And even Link Loren,
who's not all that provocative on issues like this,
he was raising something about this yesterday.
I'll play it here in stop 32.
We've acquired these pictures
of where he was allegedly out running,
but then I think he said he was walking.
It says private property, no trespassing.
This looks like a sketchy area.
Something is not adding up to me.
And I know you guys are gonna agree with me.
Look, we have taken stills
of where he said he was out walking at 8 p.m.
and a wife beater in this weird area by the train tracks.
Now, there are gorgeous neighborhoods,
gorgeous neighborhoods in this town.
Why are you out behind a warehouse
in this industrial area by the train tracks at sunset
where there's alleged drug and other criminal activity?
So much so that the police came in droves
to the scene of the crime.
And we have this diagram we put up on here.
You can look at this diagram, right,
where the cops stop him,
where you have the no trespassing sign,
where they meet the officers
and we have the body cam footage.
Something isn't adding up to me.
I think she knows more than she's letting on.
Hmm.
That's interesting.
Yeah, it is interesting.
Yeah, I mean, like what I-
And let me ask you this, guys.
Yeah.
If this had been, I don't know,
pick your, like Don Trump Jr. or Barron Trump
when he was just a candidate
and he was running, Trump Sr.,
do you think the media might follow up?
I think we'd probably get to the bottom.
Without a doubt, Megan.
And you know, I was sitting here listening
to the conversation and thinking all along,
like, why the hell didn't he just pay the $200 fine
or go online and pay the, you know,
put his credit card in for the $75 fine?
It's 500 bucks.
500 bucks.
Like everybody else who gets a ticket
for something they shouldn't have been doing.
But what Link was saying is interesting.
Like, maybe there is something more to this story
that they don't want to let out.
When I like to run, I run in a park.
I have to tell you guys,
my inbox is full of leads like that,
that Link just asked of people,
like screenshotting and raising questions.
They're not buying the full story.
Go ahead, Duncan.
Once I saw the pictures,
everything's all sort of rusted out and everything.
Then I got what you were saying, Megan.
Because like, if I go running,
you want to run in a nice place, like a park.
Somewhere without assault.
You know, right?
Like maybe like your neighborhood.
You don't pick out the rusted out place
where you can get tetanus and be like,
I'd like to do physical activity here.
But when we do all the drugs, we do it in a rail yard.
Have you guys seen Sunny Hostin's home?
I've only seen it because she made me see it.
She put it public online because she wanted to show it off.
Okay, fine.
Well, these are her rules.
We'll go along with them.
This is her neighborhood in Westchester.
We'll show it.
Standby.
Look at this.
Wow.
I feel like I might jog in this neighborhood
without any qualms whatsoever.
It is a little weird.
Nice backsplash.
Because he jogged in Westchester.
I don't know where he actually lives,
but he jogged in Westchester
and I believe in the same town as mom.
And this is mom's house.
This is where he grew up.
He was living there, whatever, I guess six years ago
when he was an 18 year old young man.
And now he's a Harvard grad
and choosing to run in some very, very seedy areas.
So I do wonder as well,
the whole thing reeks and exposes her.
As so many of the stories have today of these Democrats
as a hypocrite, she's just a hypocrite.
They say one thing and they do a different thing.
It's rules for thee, but not for me.
