Actress Christina Ricci, known for her role in The Addams Family, seemingly called out journalist Megyn Kelly for the latter’s comment about Jeffrey Epstein. On November 13, during her discussion with journalist Batya Ungar-Sargon, they explored how the Democrats used the Epstein emails to tarnish Donald Trump.

Meanwhile, as seen in the screenshots from Ricci’s Instagram stories posted on Buzzfeed, the actress shared a quote from ‘betches_news,’ which read:

“There's definitely a difference between a 5-year-old and a 15-year-old. But that difference is not “whether or not sleeping with them makes you a p*dophile””

In another story, Ricci commented,

“This woman is a danger to children.”

What did Megyn Kelly say about Epstein and Trump?

During the conversation with Batya Ungar-Sargon, Kelly touched upon several aspects of the Epstein controversy and his relationship with Trump. She mentioned:

“For the record, Trump has said he stopped speaking to Epstein because Epstein stole workers from Mar-a-Lago's spa.”

Another incident that Megyn Kelly mentioned was that Epstein once wanted to buy a property out of bankruptcy. Epstein wanted Trump’s advice on that but the president bought it himself. Kelly mentioned that she could not understand why Trump and Epstein split. Speaking about the present political scenario surrounding Epstein, Megyn Kelly said:

“That's how Republicans got into this because it was buried under Biden they didn't understand why we didn't get any answers and then they thought when Trump took over we would and instead Trump did what Biden had done which was I'm not not releasing anything on this.”

Kelly argued that most Republicans lost interest in the controversy over the Epstein files because the Democrats went too far with it. From a deep interest in searching for the truth, the issues became a weapon to bring down Donald Trump. Speaking about a press conference where many women said they would make their own list, Batya Ungar-Sargon said:

“These women who were grown-ups when they met Jeffrey Epstein talking about themselves like they were children at the time. To me that's really off-putting. It's kind of a slap in the face to the actual victims.”

She further said:

“The idea that this is kind of something that's going to bring Trump down with his own base with the other side. I just find it to be all so sordid.”

Megyn Kelly said there were “countless numbers” of women who were called to Epstein’s properties, where they were paid for massage services. She said Epstein liked young women and many of them were even minors. She added:

“There are definitely a couple of very well-connected people who have not been brought to justice. I'm not going to repeat the names here but one of them is a very successful business owner. I don't want to get sued, but one of them is a hugely successful business owner who seems to be a bit of a pervert and his name is all over the papers.”

Megyn Kelly explained that she knew someone who was close to the case and knew almost everything about it. She said this person had always believed, even many years ago, that Jeffrey Epstein was not a p*dophile, and she was only sharing that person’s opinion.
