This is the full, timestamped transcript of "GOP Fight Over 2028 and Vance Begins, Nvidia CEO Spy Scandal, Biden Cuts Book Tour: AM Update 11/10", an episode of Megyn Kelly published November 10, 2026 (17 min, about 2,846 words). It mentions 46 people, works and ideas, including Nvidia, Jensen Huang, Megan Kelly, J.D. Vance, China.

What this episode is about

The briefing covers a GOP power struggle over the 2028 nomination and JD Vance, a corporate probe into Nvidia’s CEO over an affair with a alleged Chinese spy, Biden’s forthcoming book with no tour, and a student unexpectedly poised to lead hundreds of government workers after a Democratic win, plus a brief note on weight-loss injections and a promo.

Key takeaways

  • Vance's fragility hints at a GOP realignment debate: neocon pragmatism vs. detached right-wing brinkmanship.
  • Midterms exposed fractures: Trump coalition strains, Iran wars, and a White House juggling Israel signals.
  • Rubio emerges as the 'hybrid' hope—Trumpian grit with Bush-era steadiness, yet vulnerable to intra-party drift.
  • Dantis and Rubio represent rival continuity paths: risk-tolerant reformism vs. cautious consolidations for 2028.
  • Tech scandal + weight-loss hype show media's dual role: corporate governance scrutiny meets consumer skepticism.

Full transcript with timestamps

Good morning everyone. I'm Megan Kelly. It's Tuesday, November 10th, 2026, and this is your AM update. I will say that Rubio impresses everybody. He's a mix of I get Trump and I get what the Bush years were like.

The neocon wing of the GOP seemingly making its move to try to stop Vice President JD Vance from securing the 2028 nomination following a massive GOP loss in the midterms. Someone uh apparently lied to someone there. Uh and that is the kind of thing that boards of directors generally don't like.

Former President Joe Biden will have a book out next week, but don't expect to see him on a book tour. and a 19-year-old college sophomore riding the Democrat wave to victory in Arizona, now preparing to oversee hundreds of government employees.

Republicans are confronting an increasingly uncertain future following last week's devastating midterm losses as knives are out for Vice President JD Vance from the more neocon wing of the GOP. According to the Wall Street Journal, owned by Rupert Murdoch, a longtime Vance confidant, texting him on election day suggesting he might sit out the 28th presidential race. Other allies telling the Journal they doubt any Republican can win the White House in 28. Democrats flipping seven Senate seats so far, including Mr. Vance's old seat in Ohio and winning governorships in Texas and Georgia. The losses exposing fractures in President Trump's political coalition, particularly over the war in Iran. Vice President Vance, a notable critic of the war, bluntly identifying it as a large portion of the reason for the backlash in the midterms in a lengthy social media post last week. The VP also assessing voters want

to see a change in the party's relationship with Israel. The comments raising questions about possible divisions within the White House, prompting reporters to press President Trump on his relationship with the vice president.

Has JD Vance's comments about Iran questioning some of those decisions. Has that impacted your relationship at all?

No, not at all. But a lot of people didn't like his comments, but not me. Um, he was right. Other than one thing, he should have made one other statement. One statement that I think is very important. If you had it to do again, would you do it again? The answer is yes. I can tell you if I had it to do again, this historically for history will go down as one of the best things we ever did because if they ever had a nuclear weapon, they would blow up the world. You know why? Cuz they're crazy.

The New York Post, another Rupert Murdoch media property, which initially backed Florida Governor Ron Dantis in 2024, publishing two sharply critical opinion pieces over the weekend. One accusing Vice President Vance of abandoning President Trump. The other warning that his economic agenda could hurt Republicans. Governor Dantis among the potential alternatives attracting donor interest in the days following the GOP's massive loss. The Washington Post reporting Governor Dantis is positioning himself for another possible presidential campaign following his unsuccessful challenge to President Trump in 2024. the governor delivering a blunt assessment of the Republican party at a press conference last week.

This is going to last far beyond just two years. You look ahead to to the 28 election, a presidential election, you are not as Republicans going to be able to retake the Senate under this current map just two years from now. And with all the House seats that have been done, probably not viable to take that back uh as well. So this is really going to have an impact two years, four years, six years, maybe even longer before Republicans could exercise unified control uh in Washington again.

Dantis is coming to the end of his tenure as governor and failed to secure traction in the GOP primary back in 2024. Another potential contender attracting attention, Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Host Brian Kilme of Fox News another Murdoch property offering his assessment of the two potential contenders in an interview on the Clay and Buck show.

I will say that Rubio impresses everybody. He's a mix of I get Trump and I get what the Bush years were like. And people just seem to like him. They like him on the world stage. They like him on the domestic stage. They like the Hispanic background. And so far JD Vance is is leaning way to the right uh like the extreme right, the anti-Israel right and I think it's getting a lot of people nervous and I think that there's some concern and it was not alleviated by his ridiculous insubordinate posting on X or wherever he put it on his personal account.

Secretary Rubio previously indicating he would support Mr. advance if the VP runs, fueling speculation about a possible joint ticket in 2028. The Washington Post reporting, however, some donors now urging Secretary Rubio to run on his own. The Secretary for now showing little interest in entertaining those questions.

I'm not going to talk about 2028 any longer. I'm just not going to talk about 2028 anymore.

I'm just asking you about a comment you and I'm just telling you that. Okay, here's my answer. You ready? I'm not going to discuss 2028. I'm not going to discuss it in any form or fashion. The Real Clear Politics polling average has the VP leading the potential Republican field with 38% support, followed by Secretary Rubio at 26% and Governor Dantis at 8. On prediction market, Kelshi fans has a 34% chance of winning the 2028 Republican presidential nomination, followed by Rubio and Dantis each at 17%. Dantis was at just 5% on election day one week ago. Our sponsor Couchi reflects what traders actually believe. Give it a try by using code Megan Kelly or click the link in the description.

AI chipmaking giant Nvidia launching an independent investigation into its billionaire CEO Jensen Wong following his admission of an extrammarital affair with a woman whom US intelligence officials reportedly identified oh as a Chinese spy. The investigation announced Sunday following more than a year of scrutiny over Hang's relationship with Alice Wang, a major NVIDIA customer whom US intel officials identified as a Chinese spy per the New York Times. Alice was a top executive at Singapore-based Mega Speed, which purchased more than $4.8 billion in Nvidia chips beginning in 2024. The Times reporting last year that the Commerce Department was investigating whether Mega Speed helped Chinese companies evade US chip export restrictions. The alleged espionage raising broader national security concerns given Jensen Wong's close relationship with President Trump and his efforts to loosen restrictions on

advanced AI chip sales to China. US surveillance of Alice, eventually uncovering her close relationship with the Nvidia CEO and evidence that she was communicating directly with Beijing. The newspaper reporting last month that President Trump had been briefed on the findings roughly a year ago, but chose not to intervene. The Times reporting last week that Secretary of State Marco Rubio oversaw a classified memo this spring detailing intelligence that China had recruited Alice specifically to target the tech CEO. Jensen insisting to Bloomberg last month that his dealings with Alice were strictly professional.

On Sunday, Hang publicly admitting that they had an affair, apologizing to his wife of more than four decades and their children. In a letter to Nvidia employees, Hang writing, quote, I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry. The company's board announcing Sunday that independent directors assisted by outside legal counsel would investigate the allegations. In its statement, Nvidia maintaining that it had no evidence of compromised company secrets or national security information while promising to examine all available evidence. The board expressing confidence in Wong's leadership, allowing him to remain as CEO during the review. President Trump coming to Wong's defense at a press conference yesterday.

He built a great company, American company, and I think he's a very honorable guy. And I asked him about that. And he had he said he had absolutely no idea that the person in question was a spy.

Are you concerned? I asked him that question. Did you have any idea that she was a spy? He said, I had no idea that she was a spy, and I really believe him.

Despite that support, Wong's future at Nvidia remains uncertain. CNBC's senior Washington correspondent Iman Javvers yesterday pointing to two significant obstacles.

One is uh the relentlessness of the sources here for the New York Times and the FT. So there seems to be a real commitment on the part of somebody inside the US government to push Jensen Wong out of this position. Uh and then the second thing uh is clearly there was some effort to misdirect the public by Nvidia last week. Nvidia put out a statement suggesting that Jensen Wong's relationship with Alice Wong uh was business as usual. Uh and then a couple of days later forced to admit actually he had an affair with her. So someone uh apparently lied to someone there. Uh and that is the kind of thing that boards of directors generally don't like and it's just difficult from a corporate governance standpoint to move forward.

The steady stream of disclosures continuing yesterday afternoon. The New York Times reporting new details about a federal investigation into Mega Speed's suspected smuggling of restricted Nvidia chips into China. CNN reporting Nvidia's shares falling more than 20% from their peak last month, erasing their gains for the year. This a dramatic reversal for the chipmaker whose stock has surged more than 1,200% over the past four years. Coming up, former President Joe Biden will limit promotional appearances for his upcoming memoir as he continues undergoing cancer treatment.

And a 19-year-old college student defeating a former state senator in Arizona becoming the unlikely new boss of nearly 700 government employees. Good news.

11th. Diversify into gold and silver and get free silver. Text MK to the number 989898. That's MK2989898. Former President Joe Biden will be releasing a memoir next Tuesday titled Promise Me America, but don't expect to see much of him on a book tour. An announcement on Mr. Biden's ex account indicating the 83-year-old is unable to participate in the interviews he initially planned for the book, pointing to his battle with cancer as the alleged reason. The former president also declining to narrate the audio book version himself. He has previously worked with ghostriters for other memoirs. President Biden announcing in May of last year that he had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer which had already spread to his bones. Since then, he's undergone radiation and hormone therapy. In August, his son Hunter telling the BBC that the cancer had spread even further, describing his father's condition as

extremely painful and debilitating. The health update renewing attention on Mr. Biden's age and physical condition, issues that dominated the final months of his presidency and ultimately contributed to his decision to abandon his re-election campaign in July 2024. Had Mr. Biden remained in the race and defeated President Trump, he would now be approaching the halfway point of his second term with more than 2 years still left on the clock. In an excerpt of the book published yesterday in The Atlantic, Mr. Mr. Biden describing a surprisingly friendly Oval Office meeting with President-elect Trump following the 24 election. Mr. Trump reportedly praising Mr. Biden's record on job creation and suggesting the two could have been friends if it were not for politics. The excerpt then taking a sharply critical view of Mr. Trump's second term, accusing him of reversing Biden era policies and undermining

American democracy. A 19-year-old college sophomore becoming one of the most unlikely winners of last week's midterm elections, defeating a former Republican state senator to take charge of a major government office in Arizona. Democrat Sebastian Mada winning more than 760,000 votes to become the next clerk of superior court in Maricopa County, the fourth largest county in the country. Ma capturing roughly 53% of the vote against 50-year-old Jeff Dial despite having virtually zero political experience and still attending Arizona State University. The teenager studying philosophy, politics, and law, balancing his campaign with college classes, and a paper about a jury trial due later this month. His improbable victory coming amid a sweeping Democrat wave in Arizona, where the party captured both chambers of the state legislature and retained the governor's office, securing full control of state government for the

first time in 60 years. According to ABC15 Arizona, Ma did not even hire a campaign manager until roughly 3 weeks before the election. The young Democrat initially discovering the position while browsing online for offices he could potentially run for, eventually securing help from the local Democrat party to gather the signatures needed to qualify for the ballot. The surprising victory prompting a concession call from his 50year-old Republican opponent, a moment Ma recalled last week on Jimmy Kimmel.

Your opponent is 50 years old. Did he call you to concede? Yes, it was a very brief 30 secondond phone call while I was eating a bullet Chipotle. 30 seconds. Did he cry at any point or he had to hang up the phone?

He seemed pretty h happy to me. I think he's a fine guy. You know, I have nothing bad to say about him. He's been a good guy. You know, honorable opponent, but somebody's got to win.

Ma now preparing to oversee a government office with nearly 700 employees, responsible for managing court records, processing legal filings, and handling millions of dollars in public funds. The 19-year-old still living with his parents, although his new job comes with an annual salary of approximately $97,000.

But you do live with your parents, you mentioned. Do you have chores? Do you do your own laundry? Make your own bed?

Um, yeah. I mean, I uh I like to scoop up the trash that comes into the pool every now and then. Uh, take out the trash every now and then.

Will you still do that stuff when you're county clerk? No. I figure that with 97 grand, I can hire somebody to do it. And that'll do it for your AM update. I'm Megan Kelly.
