Watching the latest Megyn Kelly segment, conservatives saw a familiar and necessary call-out: Hollywood elites who lecture the country from cushy Manhattan stages are once again cheering chaos while dodging responsibility. Kelly didn’t pull punches as she addressed the wave of celebrity commentary around the anti-ICE protests, arguing that performers who haven’t been asked to enforce law and order have no business sanctifying mob tactics.
The unrest was triggered by the tragic shooting of Renee Good during an ICE operation in Minneapolis, an incident that has rightly sparked national attention and, yes, furious debate over use of force and proper procedures. Protests intensified for days, and what began as righteous anger in many hearts rapidly attracted extremists and dangerous tactics that put ordinary citizens at risk.
Megyn pointed out what many on the right have noticed for years: the same celebrities who sanctimoniously lecture about morality and compassion are the first to glamorize protest while ignoring the real victims of disorder. She singled out performers with long histories of theatrical, headline-grabbing outbursts — reminding viewers that fame does not equal moral authority or expertise on policing.
Let’s be blunt: Patti LuPone is no stranger to performing outrage in public, whether scolding audience members over mask etiquette or trading barbed, headline-seeking comments in Vanity Fair–style interviews. Those moments aren’t just quirky footnotes in a long career; they reveal an arrogant habit among some stars of assuming they can adjudicate complex public-safety questions from a soundstage.
Beyond celebrity theater, there are real organizational forces at work on the ground. Local activist groups have circulated training materials urging tactics that can escalate confrontations with federal agents, and those risks are not theoretical — they’ve already helped produce chaotic scenes and put bystanders in danger. Americans should demand better from activists who preach nonviolence while encouraging risky maneuvers that invite tragedy.
The larger point Megyn made — and the lesson conservative Americans should take to heart — is this: principled debate about ICE and immigration must be sober, legal, and focused on reform, not performative outrage. When celebrities use tragedy as a stage prop, they distract from accountability, policy solutions, and the basic need for public safety that every American deserves.
If the left wants to change minds on immigration enforcement, start by offering real, constructive proposals instead of rallies that flirt with lawlessness and viral grandstanding. Until then, it’s fair for conservatives to call out the hypocrisy, defend the rule of law, and insist that fame does not confer expertise on matters of security and liberty.
