Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson and Sirius XM’s Megyn Kelly slammed the Democratic Party and the media Thursday for branding the Harris-Walz ticket as America’s mom and dad.

Kelly pointed out that Democrats and the media are trying to style 2024 Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris as “Momala” and her running mate, Tim Walz as “America’s dad.” Carlson hysterically laughed while saying, “That’s so sick.”

“These Democrats, like, really seriously looking for new parent figures in the absence of good ones of their own, I suppose. And I do wonder, like, what’s wrong with us? Because most of us don’t need new parents and aren’t looking to some politician to step into the breach,” Kelly said.

Kelly told Carlson that Walz, unlike former President Donald Trump and his running mate J.D. Vance, lacks masculinity. She cited comments from CNN’s Dana Bash who said late Wednesday that Democrats are propping up Walz and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff to appeal to men “who might not be the sort of testosterone-laden, gun-toting kind of guy.”

“Doug Emhoff? His daughter comes out on stage, and again, I’m trying not to be mean, but I look at Doug Emhoff’s daughter — miserable, covered in tattoos — anyone who has a daughter like that should not have political power. Because you’ve messed up enough. Do you know what I mean?” Carlson said.

“I do think that your personal life really matters,” the Daily Caller co-founder continued. “If you do t have a spouse who loves and respects you, if you don’t have children who love and respect you, I feel sorry for you. But you definitely can’t have control over my life because you have not done a good job.”

Kelly mentioned Politico’s Wednesday headline calling Emhoff the “Dad-in-Chief.” Disgusted, she recalled Emhoff’s extramarital affair with the nanny of his kids — who he allegedly impregnated.

“This guy who cheated on his first wife by banging the nanny, impregnating her, and there was either an abortion or an abdomen child. And they actually want us to swallow him as our dad,” Kelly stated. “You know what? My dad was a good dad. He never cheated on my mom, who never impregnated another person, who never had an abortion with an affair — you go down the list. This is sick! Why are they looking at these men as like, their new daddy figures?”

Carlson told Kelly that Democrats view the party as important above everything else — even if that means ratting out family members for disobeying orders.

“The party itself is more important than any single person. The individual doesn’t matter — it’s the collective,” Carlson said. “And, that collective, in their view, should replace everything else. And should be subject of your first and primary loyalty.”

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
