MEGYN KELLY (HOST): What just happened today is a line we can't un-cross and these Democrats will rue the day they decided to use lawfare to stop a presidential candidate. I'm not talking about violence, I'm talking about tit-for-tat. You just wait. And it won't be Hunter Biden the next time, it's going to be Joe Biden. It could potentially still be Barack Obama. It could still potentially be Hillary Clinton. We’re going to have to look at what the statutes of limitations are on the various crimes they surely committed. We’re going to have to look at passing laws to revive those dead crimes, felonies, or misdemeanors, so that those cases can be brought out of time. That's what may be in the interest of justice. Just like they did for E. Jean Carroll with a New York state law that was passed so that she could sue him. That's what happened. 

Turnabout is fair play and John Yoo, an amazing lawyer who worked in the Bush administration Department of Justice, has a great piece out today talking about how that's the only way they'll learn. The only way to save the republic now is to give them a taste of their own medicine. That's it. That's it. They tasted blood today. They're the wolves with the bloody piece of meat in their mouths. That doesn't stop the wolf from coming back for more. The only thing that will stop him is if he loses a limb of his own.

And I'm sorry, but the Democrats started this game and the same way the Republicans upped the ante when it came to, for example, the filibuster fight, the Democrats got rid of it for lower court judges, Mitch McConnell said you would rue the day because were going to be in control of this chamber one day and you're going to lose the filibuster at the higher level court and you'll be sorry. That's what needs to happen here.

Who's getting indicted next? Joe Biden? Maybe Jill Biden. How low can we go? You may not want to see it, that ship has already left port. That horse has left the barn. That's where we’re going. So, before you celebrate too much over at MSNBC and CNN who are positively gleeful, gleeful over this absurd conviction, you wait and ask yourself, ask yourself, what kind of Pandora's box has been opened here?
