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.

Karoline Leavitt Responds To Pope Leo Calling Out MAGA's 'Pro-Life' Hypocrisy—And Somehow She Made It About Biden

Pro-forced birth conservatives are upset as their hypocrisy has been called out again. Self-proclaimed pro-lifers were appalled to be told again that being pro-life means supporting more than embryos and fetuses.

On Tuesday during a press gaggle, Pope Leo XIV criticized the United States government's treatment of immigrants, saying—under his authority as the head of the Holy Roman Catholic church—Catholic politicians must be judged on the full range of their policy positions, not just on their rhetoric about abortion.

AOC Saves The Day By Giving Bronx Middle School Group A Tour Of The Capitol Amid Shutdown

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had people cheering after she stepped in to act as tour guide after a group of middle schoolers from the Bronx pulled up to the Capitol hours after the U.S. government officially shut down.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.

GOP Lawmaker Sparks Outrage After Calling For Dem Rep. To Be Executed For Urging People To Protest Trump

On Wednesday, September 25, an Arizona MAGA Republican state Representative publicly called for the execution of Washington Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal because she urged anyone displeased with MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's job performance to exercise their First Amendment right to free speech and to protest.

Apparently, urging citizens to make their voices heard was a step too far for Arizona state GOP Representative John Gillette, who responded to a clip edited out of a longer video by right-wing account The Patriot Oasis (TPO). A quick scan through Gillette's X account media posts will reveal his political leanings.
