Newsmax Anchor's Bizarre Story Warning About Dangers Of Weed Has People Scratching Their Heads

Newsmax Anchor's Bizarre Story Warning About Dangers Of Weed Has People Scratching Their Heads
Newsmax

Right-wing outlet Newsmax anchor Grey Kelly, like many far-right conservatives, is known to be quite critical of marijuana usage.

But if Kelly's claims are to be believed, his distaste comes from personal experience.


On Wednesday, March 31, Kelly shareda story on Twitter of how he tried weed once in Kentucky and "woke up" four days later in Nairobi, Kenya.

He tweeted:

"SMOKING WEED (aka GRASS) is NOT a good idea. I've tried it (back in the day) and it was WORSE than anything that happened to HUNTER BIDEN."
"I 'toked up' with some buddies in Kentucky and woke up 4 days later in Nairobi, Kenya. With no idea what happened."
"DON'T DO DRUGS."

Of course, pretty much everyone on the internet was ready to point out to Kelly whatever he smoked definitely wasn't just marijuana.



Most people assumed Kelly was simply making up the story to scare his conservative audience.



There were some on Twitter who wanted to get their hands on Kelly's weed, the strongest strain they'd ever heard of.


What possible explanation could there be for Kelly getting slightly high, losing consciousness for four days and ending up in Kenya?

And how did he get a passport and make it onto a plane and through customs?


Kelly was born in 1968, so "back in the day" would be the 1980s or early 90s.

Airport security wasn't that lax even then.

Of course, Newsmax anchors aren't generally known for their honesty and reliance on the facts.


Someone keep an eye on Greg Kelly—it's impossible to know why he supposedly ended up in Kenya "back in the day," but there's no telling when it might happen again.

Nancy Mace's Claim That No One Would Know Simone Biles' Name If Men Competed Against Her Gets Epically Fact-Checked

South Carolina MAGA Republican Representative Nancy Mace has been making a name for herself by being the most vulgar and vile anti-trans person in Congress. She's screamed transphobic slurs in official committee meetings and attacked anyone who opposes her bigotry.

Now she's decided to take on the most decorated gymnast in history—in women's and men's gymnastics—Simone Biles, who holds the record for the most Olympic and World Championship medals combined. Biles won 41 medals in just those events, surpassing all other gymnasts.

Vance Tried To Make A Joke About Seeing 'Les Misérables' At The Kennedy Center—And It's Peak Cringe

Vice President JD Vance had people groaning after he made a bad joke about the production of Les Misérables he and his wife, Second Lady Usha Vance, attended at the Kennedy Center with President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.

The musical, set in 19th century France, tells the story of Jean Valjean, an ex-convict who is released from prison for stealing a loaf of bread. The story touches on timeless themes such as justice and mercy—and also happens to be about people resisting an authoritarian takeover, which many find ironic given the Trump administration's response to protests in Los Angeles.

People Who Smashed Wedding Cake In Their Spouse's Face Reveal How Their Relationship Is Going Now

According to The Knot wedding resource magazine and website, smashing cake into the face of a spouse after tying the knot is a tradition tied to medieval England. To celebrate the marriage, the bride would toss a piece of piece of cake over her shoulder for good luck.

This evolved into newlyweds feeding a piece of cake to one another, then taking frosting or a small bit of cake and rubbing it gently onto each other's faces—usually the cheek or tip of the nose.
