GREG KELLY (HOST): I'm a conspiracy theorist, and I hope you are too. Yes, it was made official today. They finally just, for everybody — when they say you're a conspiracy theorist, that means you're a critical thinker. That means you're independent. That means you don't necessarily go with the fake news preferred narrative. You see things for yourself. You are not afraid to take data and come to your own conclusion. This is a free country. It ought to remain so. So this was an interesting moment during RFK's confirmation hearing today.

KELLY: Exactly. If you're onto something, if you are asking uncomfortable questions of powerful interests, it's one of the first tricks they'll try — conspiracy theorists. It won't work anymore. It's kind of like when they started calling everything racist, right? At first. People will do anything to not be seen of that way, and they realize the true racists were the ones calling everybody racists. So conspiracy theorist doesn't work anymore. And if they do call you that, wear it with pride.
