Megyn Kelly, Chelsea Clinton spar in heated clash over flood relief, Epstein files: ‘Family of grifters’

Megyn Kelly ripped into Chelsea Clinton after the former first daughter boasted about her Texas flood relief efforts – calling her a “fake philanthropist” and the Clintons a “family of grifters.”

The former Fox News anchor, who hosts the “The Megyn Kelly Show” podcast, tore into Bill and Hillary’s only child after she posted on X last Wednesday that a subsidiary of the Clinton Foundation was “on the ground in Texas, supporting families, communities and ongoing search and rescue efforts.”

Social media users quickly jumped on Chelsea’s call to action, accusing her family of defrauding governments through the Clinton Foundation and noting its ties to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

“Why, are you guys planning on stealing money like you did in Haiti? To anyone out there please don’t give to this organization. Give to local organizations only, like the Community Foundation of Texas Hill Country,” one user wrote in a post on X, referring to claims that the Clinton Foundation had pocketed millions of dollars for relief efforts in Haiti after a devastating earthquake struck in 2010.

Kelly picked up on the growing backlash, posting on X: “The replies to this post are AMAZING,” Kelly wrote on X.

Chelsea Clinton attempted to defuse the maelstrom.

“I’m sure any of the organizations I mentioned which are on the ground in Texas would welcome your support,” she replied to Kelly’s post.

But the podcaster was in not in a charitable mood.

“Chelsea, what we are seeing in the replies to your post is that while you love to play fake philanthropist, absolutely no one wants your family of grifters anywhere near those suffering in Texas, Haiti or anywhere else,” Kelly responded.

In a final retort, Clinton defended her family’s foundation.

“Hi Megyn – we’re proud to partner with & support these organizations. I don’t receive a cent & never have from these or @ClintonFdn. Supporting vital work in Texas matters most now. Hope you will highlight relief efforts on your @x timeline – apologies if I missed them – & show.”

The Clinton foundation faced multiple federal investigations into allegations of bribery and a pay-to-play scheme. It was cleared of any wrongdoing in 2019.

The Clinton Foundation directed The Post to a fact-check page on its website.

“The facts are clear and well-documented — all money collected by the Clinton Foundation for Haiti was immediately directed to help in the wake of the devastating earthquake in 2010,” the foundation said on its website.

“The Clinton Foundation worked with our partners to deploy resources on the ground, and we did not take a penny for overhead or charge any administrative fee.”

Some social media users also nodded to the family’s ties to Epstein, who “was part of the original group that conceived the Clinton Global Initiative,” according to a letter written by Epstein’s attorneys to federal prosecutors in 2007.

That letter was part of plea negotiations concerning sex abuse allegations filed by Virginia Giuffre, who claimed she was lured into a sex-trafficking ring by Epstein when she was 15 and working at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club. Giuffre died by suicide in April at 41 at her farm in western Australia.

A spokesman for Bill Clinton previously said he took “four trips” on Epstein’s plane, all included stops related to the work of the Clinton Foundation.

Kelly is one of several conservatives who have blasted the Trump administration after it recently claimed Epstein did not have a “client list” – after Attorney General Pam Bondi earlier this year replied to a question about the list that “it’s sitting on my desk right now to review.”

“She [Bondi] repeatedly misled on Epstein. Then didn’t have the courage to explain herself. Suddenly, she’s camera shy & no Qs allowed. Good luck!” Kelly wrote in a post on X over the weekend.
