Megyn Kelly wasn't too thrilled about Georgia senator Jon Ossoff making comments about Donald Trump's favored political aide Natalie Harp.
The journalist, 55, criticized Ossoff, 39, on a recent episode of The Megyn Kelly Show, where she called the backlash surrounding Harp, 35, and the president's professional relationship "despicable."
Natalie Harp Is One of Donald Trump's Most Beloved Aides

Natalie Harp has been working for Donald Trump since 2020.
Harp reportedly frequently joins Trump, 80, on weekend getaways, including on a trip to Las Vegas that took place in July.
In recent weeks, the former television presenter has also been seen golfing with the POTUS. She allegedly was even one of the select assistants Trump asked to join him on a top-secret flight from Turkey last month after it was decided that him flying on Air Force One posed an Iranian threat.
Megyn Kelly said Donald Trump 'cares' about Natalie Harp.
“Some of the press were p----- because they felt like they were sitting ducks. They weren’t aware that they were being used as decoys,” Kelly noted.
“And then it became sort of a running joke, like, who did he take off the plane with? Because those are the only people Trump cares about, right? He actually thought he might get blown up on Air Force One, doesn’t care about [Marco] Rubio, doesn’t care about the press, [but he] does care about Natalie,” she ranted on.
The Secretary of State, 55, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent were reportedly on the "decoy" Air Force One flight at the time.

Megyn Kelly called Jon Ossoff's comments 'despicable.'
The covert plane trip was mentioned by Ossoff at a campaign rally earlier this month. “See, he doesn’t want to do the job. He wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie on their apparently defenseless flying palace gifted by the Emir of Qatar," the politician stated.
Kelly continued to skewer Ossoff on her Sirius XM show, fuming that it was "despicable to attack a 35-year-old cancer survivor as a possible affair partner to the President of the United States.”
Megyn Kelly Scoffed at Jon Ossoff's Remarks About Natalie Harp and Donald Trump

Megyn Kelly claimed Jon Ossoff 'implied' Donald Trump and Natalie Harp are having an 'affair.'
The attorney later took to her X account and didn't back down on her thoughts about the Democratic senator.
"Ossoff was clearly implying that Trump is having an affair w/his staffer. He was so determined to disparage Trump, he didn’t give one thought (or worse, he did) to how this would affect Natalie. Forever. Don’t let the Democrats tell you they are for women. It’s a lie," she penned.
Natalie Harp Began Working for Donald Trump in 2020

Natalie Harp's brother claimed she's 'infatuated' with the POTUS.
Harp has served as the executive assistant to Trump since 2025, and also was as a member of the advisory board for his 2020 presidential campaign. She also reportedly runs the businessman's highly-controversial Truth Social account.
She was diagnosed with stage 2 bone cancer in the early 2010s, and repeatedly credited Trump’s 2018 Right to Try Act with saving her life.
Her brother, Preston, claimed on CNN's OutFront on Tuesday, August 18, that her "infatuation" with Trump began when she was a young girl as he was her "first exposure to politics."
He also described her role in the administration as an "unhealthy obsession" because she's the lead member of the “president’s fan club."
