We knew this was coming--15 yr olds are now 'barely legal':

[Kingofalldems]

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

— Republican Accountability (@accountablegop.bsky.social) 2025-11-13T17:00:06.176Z

I understand Megyn Kelly has a 14 yr old daughter.

[SheltieLover]

1. Sickening!

[hamsterjill]

88. I feel the same way.

I wanted to throw up when I heard her comments.

[SheltieLover]

90. I want to barf everytime a repuke utters anything.

[hamsterjill]

91. Well, I agree. But this seemed particularly gross to me.

I think it's because it's coming from another woman. I can't stand it when women make excuses for men behaving badly. I am not a member of the "boys will be boys" club!!!

Hope you're having a great evening!

[SheltieLover]

93. I couldn't agree more, Jill

Absolutely revolting!

[JBTaurus83]

2. So pathetic.

[AllyCat]

3. What is wrong with her?

[Crowman2009]

40. She's being her true sick racist pedo-pass self.

That whole respectable journalist BS was a total act. I knew that a long time ago when she tried that whole "there is nothing wrong with blackface" routine at NBC. Now that she's gathered enough cash she can now be the true vile person she's always been.

[alimbalt]

112. EVERYTHING!

[tinrobot]

4. So, it's OK if 50+ year old man does that to your 15 year old daughter?

No. It's not OK.

"Barely legal" is still illegal. People go to jail for it.

[durablend]

9. Someone should ask her that

Her own daughter is 14.

You okay with that Megyn?

13. It's okay,

[Dave Id]

52. WTF Megyn?

Somebody call Childhood Protection Services on her before she rents out her own daughter.

[calimary]

79. That's about all I have, to say to her.

WTF, Megyn???

[Polybius]

86. Barely legal isn't illegal

It's just that Kelly's definition is wrong, since 15 is not legal in any way. Barely legal is an 18 year old on a porn site.

[AloeVera]

109. It's wrong on purpose. On point for her.

But here it's vile beyond measure.

[Dave Bowman]

5. Trying to excuse raping minors is vomit inducing.

[BOSSHOG]

6. Brilliant conservative sexual perversion expert Mygen the kelly reports

If I were a Republican in a sex scandal I wouldn’t want a “supporter” telling one and all that I didn’t have sex with an eight year old, I had sex with a 15 year old, but that’s just me.

Disclosure, I’m not a Republican ergo etcetera.

[Torchlight]

7. We knew this goalpost would eventually be moved

I just didn't think it would happen until the GOP were on their backs screaming for an assist as next year's mid-terms hit them in the belly. Or maybe they'll simply assert their shame is a badge of honor (more likely given their 'double-down and admit nothing!' policy they've adhered to this year).

[Ocelot II]

8. Nice try, Megyn. A 15-year-old is a *minor*. What they used to call "jail bait," for good reason:

Sex with a fifteen-year-old is not only disgusting, it's illegal; it's considered rape because she isn't legally able to consent. "Barely legal" is illegal, just like barely dead is dead.

[ColoringFool]

35. I Must Disagree With Your Definitions, Not Your Message...

"Barely" here does not mean "hasn't reached." THAT term would be "Nearly."

So "Barely Legal" means "Just right over the threshold of legality. Not cool, not ethical, but legal."

Fifteen years of age is not even close, though, to either term.

(Similarly, "Barely dead" doesn't mean "not dead." )

[Ocelot II]

39. Then it's really Megyn's error, since a 15-year-old isn't "barely" legal, though Megyn clearly meant "nearly,"

trying to suggest that 15 is close enough so it's not really all that bad. But a 15-year-old is not legal and there's no such thing as nearly legal; the minimum age of consent in any state in the US is 16, no gray areas. In most states it's 18.

[progressoid]

10. This is just disgusting.

[mwmisses4289]

11. These are the same idgits who scream about

the various other cultures around the world where child marriage is practiced. Even here in the US, only 16 states ban the act of child marriage.
So not real surprised by this.

And remember, the girl brought it on herself for...reasons.

[TommyT139]

97. And don't forget - child labor is back in style

...and rethugs are just fine with 13-year old girls having babies.

They are erasing childhood.

[3catwoman3]

99. No great surprises here:

Unchained At Last found that the ten states with the highest rate of child marriage per capita between 2000 and 2018 were:

Nevada (0.671%)
Idaho (0.338%)
Arkansas (0.295%)
Kentucky (0.262%)
Oklahoma (0.229%)
Wyoming (0.227%)
Utah (0.208%)

15 year old's now will have to sign up for the draft

[USS_Dauntless]

85. The draft to work at Mar-a-Lago

giving "massages" to disgusting, depraved old men.

[Laffy Kat]

15. This is what burns me up.

Technically, it is ephedophilia, which is, indeed, attraction to young teens. But it is STILL illegal and immoral in our culture. Ephedophilia is not in the DSM because it is considered normal for men to lust after young teens and men fucking wrote the DSM. I refuse to say it's not "as bad" as pedophilia because it still traumatizes the child and it's WRONG. Even Kaitlyn Collins was calling his victims "underage women." They are trying to normalize it, IMO.

[rurallib]

16. good gawd - anything for Der Furher I guess

mind games to justify child rape. Where do they stop?

[videohead5]

17. Trump

Has warped people's minds.

[Vogon_Glory]

18. There's also a difference between a sixteen or seventeen year-old doing hanky-panky with a contemporary

and someone much older having relations with a kid that age.

There was an old smutty poem derived from the well-known “Roses are red / Violets are blue…” poem that ended with “…It’s not ‘till they’re eighteen that they’re ready for [ BLEEP! NSFW!]. Sorry, but I DON’T believe that adults should engage in sexual activities with minors.

[Baitball Blogger]

19. Sounds like she's vying for Ghislaine's job.

[rubbersole]

37. Or had a similar one.

Time to spill the tea, Megyn.

[EdmondDantes_]

20. There's a distinction without a difference

Both illegal, both creepy.

[karynnj]

21. Was that a Freudian slip saying barely legal instead of barely illegal?

Even though this no "barely" involved. It is completely illegal and sickening.

Wasn't that distinction between pre puberty and after something Dersowitz argued.

32. So some 40 year old perv

Raping a 15 year old girl …

Sorry, not sorry …

Definitely illegal

[BlueKota]

33. Wow what truly evil and sick beings

these people are. It's disgusting they believe men should be able to molest girls under the age of legal consent. What if this had happened to them or their daughters? They aren't fit to be parents and minors should be removed from their custody for their own safety. They shouldn't even be allowed to be identify themselves as women.

[ChicagoTeamster]

34. In some states Republicans bible humpers still want to be able to marry 13 year olds

[DBoon]

62. Some on the "manosphere" actually ADVOCATE marrying a girl that age

The argument is that it is easier to mold a younger person into the desired submissive obedience.

It is part of a pattern of denying women their personhood and make them into slaves.

Last edited Thu Nov 27, 2025, 12:34 PM - Edit history (2)

It's why you see middle aged moms wearing "Tr××p can grab my pu××y anytime" T-shirts.

For a vast majority of American MAGAts, their daughters are merely a commodity. If they can use their looks to hook a rich man, so be it, that's the way of the world. Hell, it might even be "God's will".

It's why you see a shit-ton of young, bleached, blonde, bubbly girls hanging around Donnie Dipshit.

It's transactional. You give me a handjob, I'll scratch your back.

Megan Kelly would gladly send her daughter to Epstein's Island for a sleepover, if it meant she might bag a billionaire, a spot on Faux News, or generate clicks on her monetized social media site.

I might get flamed for this, but I'm not wrong.

Why are they so anti DEI? It's because someone qualified might take a position that would have gone to a girl rated a 10 on Zuckerbergs Facebook origin site.

Sane people think the casting couch is a disgusting, dinosaur symbol of the "Old America". MAGAts see it as an opportunity that's been taken from them.

[TNNurse]

42. There is a difference between a 5 yo and a 15 yo,

BUT IN THIS CONTEXT IT IS NOT APPLICABLE!

[JPPaverage]

43. My daughter is 17

Any of these perverted...characters touch her and they'll find out what pain really is.

[SSJVegeta]

44. Megyn Kelley into supporting child rape now, hmm?

[QueerDuck]

46. I guess she'd be fine with her daughter being raped and impregnated and forced to carry and deliver the child...

she's a real piece of work. Already moving goalposts and lowering the bar and the threshold. Disgusting!

[PatrickforB]

45. That's the MAGAts - the party of law and order! These people have NO moral compass at all. n/t

[WmChris]

47. I guess

For her it must translate to old enough to bleed old enough to butcher.

[Wednesdays]

48. If it involved a Democratic man,

There'd be lynch mobs among the MAGAts!

[Buddyzbuddy]

49. Megan should've gone into gymnastics considering how she can bend over backwards while kissing the Felon's arse.

Remind me, did she put out for Roger to move up the ladder or did he assault her. I honestly don't recall all of the facts. Either way by talking about "somebody that she knows well but remains anonymous" giving hearsay statements that this person did not see Epstein as a pedophile is extremely irresponsible of Kelly. She's drawing a line of a 15 year old giving permission to be sexually used vs. an 8 year old by a mature adult. It's obvious she's trying to provide cover for the Felon by making it ok for him to have raped a child of 15, if that's what happened. Because that's what it is, the law says it and the citizens know it.

Megan Kelly is using her pulpit in a very evil manner which is even worse because of her experience with that pig from FOX. How would she like it if people started to wonder if she set Roger up just to get a big payday. After all, if she gave him permission then it was all ok.
.

Kelly, you are such an insidious dirtbag.

[Tribetime]

50. I'm sure she would have the same opinion if it was ,Obama

[relayerbob]

51. So when she was 15 ...

she would have been ok with being forced into weird sex shit with 40+ year old without any way to stop them?

[Botany]

53. Pretty on the outside but truly ugly on the inside.

So it is O.K. for a 61 year old man to pay a pimp like Epstein or Maxwell 500 $ to rape
a 15 year old girl. Maybe even more if she is a virgin and bleeds.

73. Everything they say is a farce

They’re supposedly “pro family values” too, and, can’t stop cheating on their wives. They believe image is the only thing that’s important. They believe you can act however you want in private so long as no one finds out and everyone still thinks you’re a god-fearing holy man.

[Clouds Passing]

57. So Megyn is a-ok with her 14 yo daughter getting raped by the likes of Eps and Dump.

Stockholm syndrome Kelly.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

58. Megyn Kelly is VILE trash for saying otherwise.

First of all, a 15-year-old is not "barely legal." The age of consent in Florida is 18. So sexual behavior with a 15-year-old is rape.

Megyn Kelly is VILE trash for saying otherwise.

And Megyn Kelly is confessing to having insider information about what Jeffrey Epstein was up to but stayed silent.

"...they were actually seducing us."

The pedophile order of excuses:

I definitely didn't do it.
I didn't know how old she was.
A fifteen year old is actually pretty mature.
Age of consent fluctuates throughout history. (Names some historical figure who married a 13 year old)
She was actually seducing me.

We've heard this story a million times. It's just fucking remarkable to watch it playing out as the talking points from right wing media!

[JHB]

64. I'm enough of a pedant that I know what she's talking about, but no sensible person takes up that fight

In terms of very strict definition, "pedophilia" refers to sexual attraction to pre-pubescents. But the colloquial meaning has expanded to include all minors, and the only people who try to make that distinction these days are trying to excuse creeps who prey on teenagers.

And that's exactly what Megyn's doing.

[DeeDeeNY]

65. Somehow Megyn is a lawyer.

But she has also fervently stated on TV that Santa Claus was white.

[slightlv]

66. 18 is legal age... not 5, not 14, not 15!

Teenagers will give in to hormones as they will, but they *choose* their own age group with whom to do "it" with... not 50 and 60 year old men.

This is sickening, and if I were part of Child Services, I'd be checking up on her as pertaining to her daughter. We don't know if SHE isn't abused, since her mother thinks "she legal"...

[Rebl2]

67. Guess

She would be ok with a 35 yo going out with her daughter then? This woman is a sickening.

[Wiz Imp]

68. For the record, there are 37 states where the age of consent is below 18. The youngest, though, is 16.

It should be 18 in every state. A number of states have raised the age of consent in the relatively recent past. But for now:

States where the age of consent is 16 (30): Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Vermont, Washington, and West Virginia.

States where the age of consent is 17 (7): Colorado, Illinois, Louisiana, Missouri, New York, Texas, and Wyoming.

States where the age of consent is 18 (13): Arizona, California, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Kentucky, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, and Wisconsin.

Note: in some states, a person can still be charged with a crime for having sex with a person even after they reach the age of consent, if certain criteria are met. For example: Even though a person may legally consent to sexual activity with someone of any age older than him/her once he/she turns 16, Pennsylvania state prosecutors may still charge a person 18 or older with corruption of a minor if a person has consensual sexual intercourse with a 16 or 17 year old

70. IT IS RAPE! In NO STATE is the age of consent at 15.

The lowest age of consent in any state is 16.

Federal law dictates 18.

While it may not be pedophilia (which applies to prepubescent attraction disorder), it is still STATUTORY RAPE!

[BradBo]

71. Kelly's gross.

[tulipsandroses]

77. Disgusting. I wonder what Megyn would say to her own children if something so awful happened to them?

She has a 14 yr old and a 16 yr old. So if a 50 yr old male victimized her children, she would sit there and try to have a " scholarly" discussion about it instead of focusing on the fact that her children were victimized?

[johnnyfins]

78. She is actually incriminating TSF without actually

Saying it.

She admitted she knows someone close to the case. So she may have info on whats in the files.

Why is she making this excuse for Epstein now? He's been dead for years.

She is saying TSF was involved, and she doesn't even realize she's saying it.

Either that or she is doing it deliberately(in furtherance of her insatiable quest to stay relevant), which is worse.

[Cherrycheeks]

80. Exactly,my first words...

So its okay for her daughters

[haele]

107. Well in the 1820's 15 years old was barely legal...

But that was 200 years ago, and even then, 17 years old was a far more acceptable age for a girl to get married. As it was, the term "Not 17" was used by the upper class to refer to the age their daughters became eligible for engagement, as 16 was typically the age girls were brought out to society during "the Season" when rich folks mingled and looked for suitable marriages for their older children. The few 15 year olds brought out always turned 16 during the Season.

Lots of young women died in childbirth, too...

Seems to be where the GOP is looking to take this country, along with the rest of their Iron Age agenda..."barely legal" girls who are pretty or come with dowries being paraded about at parties for older men to pick from.
