For all the differences between the presidential and vice presidential debates, there was one glaring similarity: the moderators weren&#8217;t able to keep their mouths shut. In the first debate, the rules allowed the moderators to &#8220;fact-check,&#8221; whatever that means exactly. In the second debate, the rules didn&#8217;t allow &#8220;fact-checking.&#8221; But in both cases, the moderators couldn&#8217;t help themselves. They weighed in, over and over again. And every single time, they interjected to help whatever Democrat was standing at the podium. And the format of these &#8220;fact-checks&#8221; was always the same, too. The moderators would wait for Donald Trump or JD Vance to stop speaking. Then they&#8217;d hastily recite a rehearsed, one-line &#8220;correction.&#8221; And then they&#8217;d immediately try to change the subject so that Trump or Vance couldn&#8217;t respond.
This would be disgraceful even if these moderators were telling the truth. The whole point of a debate is to hear from the candidates, not the moderators. But even if you disagree on that point — even if you think it&#8217;s good for the moderators to intervene when they think a candidate is lying — it&#8217;s still not clear why they would refuse to let the candidates respond to their &#8220;fact checks.&#8221; This wasn&#8217;t an accident; it was how they approached every single one of these fact checks, across two debates and two sets of moderators. And it&#8217;s worth figuring out why that is.
It could be that many on the Left don&#8217;t engage in any kind of critical thought anymore. They just look at the consensus view — as reflected by the &#8220;fact check&#8221; — and declare no further questioning is allowed. They genuinely can&#8217;t conceive of a situation in which the consensus might be mistaken. On the other hand, it could also be that, in this context, the moderators realized their &#8220;fact-checks&#8221; would fall apart under any form of scrutiny. And indeed, with every day that passes, that&#8217;s exactly what&#8217;s happening. One by one, every single one of these &#8220;fact-checks&#8221; from these two debates is collapsing.
These are not small errors I&#8217;m referring to. Take for example this moment from the debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. Trump was asked about his position on abortion, and he gave a long answer. And then the moderator, Linsey Davis, fired off a one-line fact-check before pivoting immediately to Kamala Harris. Watch:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-xUEAF2iR-A?si=0bKHKiSeM2y2CAde" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
At the time, a lot of people pointed out the obvious problem with this fact-check. Donald Trump never actually said that it was legal to kill babies after they were born. But he did say it was happening. And he cited a very specific and well-known piece of evidence: The former governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam, strongly suggested to a radio show in 2019 that in certain cases, such as &#8220;fetal abnormalities,&#8221; his bill would <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/world/fact-check-virginia-governors-2019-comments-about-abortion-bill-are-missing-co-idUSKBN27D2GS/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">allow doctors</a> to kill children after they&#8217;re born:
<blockquote>If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.</blockquote>
Defenders of Ralph Northam recognized how demonic this quote is. So for the past several years, they have insisted that he wasn&#8217;t talking about euthanizing children who survived failed abortions. And they claimed the governor wasn&#8217;t actually talking about allowing newborn infants to die for no medical reason, either. Presumably, that&#8217;s the spin Linsey Davis had in mind when she corrected Donald Trump during this debate. She declared, with authority, that there is &#8220;no state&#8221; in the entire country where it&#8217;s legal to kill children after they&#8217;re born.
What was missing from her fact check is what John Solomon at Just The News has now <a href="https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/elections/tueaftwalzs-history-born-alive-abortions-opens-door-trump-gop-flip" target="_blank" rel="noopener">proven</a> — which is that children are being born alive in this country, and then doctors are allowing them to die without even attempting any life-saving intervention. It turns out that, until 2023, the state of Minnesota kept records on how many infants were born alive during failed abortions. Those records showed that from 2019 to 2021 — during Tim Walz&#8217;s tenure as governor — at least eight infants were born alive following a botched abortion. Not a single one of these infants received &#8220;life-saving care.&#8221; Two infants in 2021 received &#8220;comfort care.&#8221; All eight of the children died.
None of the doctors involved were ever investigated or charged for any of this — even though, at the time, Minnesota law <a href="https://www.ncregister.com/news/tim-walz-born-alive-abortion">required</a>, “responsible medical personnel” to use “[a]ll reasonable measures consistent with good medical practice” to “preserve the life and health of the born alive infant.”
But just to cover his bases, Tim Walz changed the law in 2023. Now the law doesn&#8217;t require lifesaving measures at all for infants who survive abortions. Instead it requires that doctors &#8220;care for the infant who is born alive,&#8221; without specifying exactly what that care entails. The law also gets rid of the reporting requirement for the state health agency, so no one can learn how many children are being killed — or allowed to die — after they&#8217;re born.
<h4><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-1456-member-exclusive" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WATCH: The Matt Walsh Show</a></h4>
If you look at the records Solomon found, you can see why Democrats might want to cover them up. They&#8217;re as ghoulish as you can imagine. Here&#8217;s the <a href="https://justthenews.com/sites/default/files/2024-08/MNAbortionReportJuly2020.pdf">July 2020 report</a> from Minnesota, for example.
<blockquote>In one instance, fetal anomalies were reported but residual cardiac activity was present at 2 minutes. Care of fetus was transferred to the second medical doctor. No measures taken to preserve life were reported and the infant did not survive. &#8230; In one instance, comfort care measures were provided as planned and the infant did not survive. &#8230; In one instance, the infant was pre-viable. No measures taken to preserve life were reported and the infant did not survive.</blockquote>
Notice the <a href="https://justthenews.com/sites/default/files/2024-08/MNAbortionReportJuly2020.pdf">report</a> doesn&#8217;t even bother to clarify whether lifesaving measures could have saved some of these infants. That&#8217;s not a piece of information the health department decided to track, for some reason. But the report is very clear on the fact that children who survived abortions were consistently allowed to die in the state of Minnesota without any attempt by a doctor to save them. &#8220;No measures taken to preserve life&#8221; is a consistent theme here. You don&#8217;t get any more information than that. And rather than provide any more transparency on this point, the state, under Tim Walz, has gone ahead and shut down record-keeping entirely.
The Dispatch looked into this reporting, and <a href="https://thedispatch.com/article/claims-about-children-born-alive-after-abortion-attempts-in-minnesota-are-true/">they confirmed</a> it&#8217;s all accurate.
<blockquote>[Charlie] Kirk and Solomon’s claims are correct. Minnesota Department of Health documents show that eight infants were born alive during abortion procedures between 2019 and 2022, and, in 2023, Walz signed legislation that repealed most of a statute designed to protect infants born alive after an abortion attempt.</blockquote>
So the truth is that Linsey Davis either has no idea what she was talking about, or she was deliberately lying. Either way, it&#8217;s beyond reprehensible that no mainstream media organization in this country has bothered to do any investigative reporting on this topic. Apparently, only John Solomon is interested in the question of whether or not children are being systematically killed — or &#8220;allowed to die&#8221; — after they&#8217;re born. The most we can expect from ABC is a drive-by &#8220;fact-check&#8221; during a presidential debate with a lot of snark and no substance whatsoever.
To get a sense of how big the problem is, I went back and looked at every single fact-check from these two debates. And every single one of them was either obviously false or extremely misleading. I already <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-1449-the-matt-walsh-show">covered</a> the FBI&#8217;s crime numbers, which supposedly show that violent crime is down. The moderator, David Muir, cited those statistics in his &#8220;fact-check&#8221; without providing any context — including the missing law enforcement agencies who didn&#8217;t report data, or the DOJ&#8217;s report showing that crime has actually surged under the Biden-Harris administration. Then there was his claim that &#8220;no credible reports&#8221; indicated animals were being eaten in Springfield. Watch:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/4O382w20rpk?si=ATftcnAizEufZIia" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
So the city manager says it&#8217;s not &#8220;credible&#8221; to suggest that domesticated animals are being killed in the &#8220;migrant community.&#8221; And the moderator and Kamala Harris mock Donald Trump for saying he saw those reports on television. It turns out that, back in March, the Springfield city manager himself did say that there were &#8220;quite a few&#8221; credible reports of &#8220;horrid things&#8221; happening to domesticated animals in Haitian communities in the town. Watch:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
So that&#8217;s another fact-check that was just a complete lie. And actually, Trump called it out in real-time. He said the city manager was probably just trying to give a political answer when ABC News called. And that&#8217;s exactly what was happening.
Let&#8217;s go down the list. There was also this fact-check from the other day:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ioYlkDYBOSw?si=XiJriD2-orj3hDIu" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
This was another drive-by fact-check that the candidates weren&#8217;t allowed to respond to. And it&#8217;s also completely false, as I&#8217;ve outlined many times before. 
Here&#8217;s how Chris Martz — the same meteorology student I mentioned the other day — <a href="https://x.com/ChrisMartzWX/status/1841291822846370094" target="_blank" rel="noopener">responded to</a> this particular fact-check. 
<blockquote>There is absolutely zero evidence that climate change makes hurricanes larger in size (i.e., diameter). There is little evidence that hurricanes are becoming stronger. The number of category 3-5 hurricanes globally exhibit no statistically significant trend since 1980. This is backed by peer-reviewed research. &#8230; There is no evidence that hurricanes are becoming deadlier because of better warning coordination. Deaths are down [by more than] 75% since 1900 because of that.</blockquote>
<div id="attachment_807403" style="width: 648px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-807403" class="wp-image-807403 size-full" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/10/GY2VGW2WEAcOhDp.jpeg" alt="Colorado State University" width="638" height="522" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/10/GY2VGW2WEAcOhDp.jpeg 638w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/10/GY2VGW2WEAcOhDp-300x245.jpeg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 638px) 100vw, 638px" />Colorado State University</div>
Chris Martz, again, is a meteorology student. And he knows enough to check the actual data before he makes wildly false claims about what &#8220;scientists say.&#8221; So what exactly is the excuse of a major media organization for doing this, in front of 40 million people?
Whatever that excuse is, they&#8217;re still doing it, long after the debate is over. Around midnight, CBS News posted <a href="https://x.com/CBSNews/status/1841346121949401372" target="_blank" rel="noopener">this</a>:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
During the vice presidential debate, Senator JD Vance claimed Vice President Harris “became the appointed border czar.” CBS News Confirmed rates this as false. Here’s why. <a href="https://t.co/Nz888H6x8i">https://t.co/Nz888H6x8i</a> <a href="https://t.co/qzJbHC4s3F">pic.twitter.com/qzJbHC4s3F</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
The fact-check claims that Harris was just assigned to investigate the &#8220;root causes&#8221; of migration, rather than to oversee enforcement of the law. But if you pull up articles from CBS&#8217; own website, you&#8217;ll find out very quickly that they&#8217;re lying. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/kamala-harris-immigration-lead-mexico-border-biden-administration/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an article</a> from 2021, for example.
<blockquote>Harris to lead administration&#8217;s efforts to stem migration at border &#8230; President Biden announced Wednesday he had tapped Vice President Kamala Harris to lead the administration&#8217;s efforts to stem migration at the southern border.</blockquote>
At this point, I&#8217;m honestly looking for a single &#8220;fact-check&#8221; that pans out. From what I can tell, none of them have any validity whatsoever. It&#8217;s actually kind of incredible. And of course, there was no fact-check that was more incredible than this one, which I highlighted the other day:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
This was egregious for all of the reasons that I&#8217;ve shown you. Yes, the moderators decided to break the rules to enter the debate on behalf of Kamala Harris. Yes, JD Vance was right that, to the extent these tens of thousands of Haitians are &#8220;legally&#8221; in the country, it&#8217;s only because the federal government has decided to bend the rules and award them mass amnesty. And yes, it&#8217;s comical that the moderator doesn&#8217;t fact-check Tim Walz&#8217;s claim that this has been going on, to the same extent, since the 90s.
But in retrospect, you can kind of see why the moderators decided to cut the microphones. After all, every single one of their fact-checks up to this point had been wrong. Some of them were called out in real-time, while others fell apart immediately on social media. And now, after all of that, they realized that yet another one of their fact-checks was blowing up in their faces. So they pressed the panic button.
At this point, the only viable solution is to eliminate moderators from future debates entirely. They&#8217;ve inserted themselves repeatedly into the discussion, only to spread falsehoods and confuse the issues. And they haven&#8217;t been wrong about insignificant topics, either. They&#8217;ve been wrong about whether illegal aliens are killing animals. They&#8217;ve been wrong about how many Americans are being victimized every year by violent criminals. And they&#8217;ve been wrong about whether children are being allowed to die after they&#8217;re born. These &#8220;mistakes&#8221; only go in one direction for a reason, which is that they&#8217;re not mistakes at all. The truth is that there are very powerful forces in this country that want to enable these atrocities. And after these moderators are all discarded along with their useless &#8220;fact-checks,&#8221; we need to make sure those ghouls never hold power again.

One of the oldest cliches in Hollywood is that, if you want a story involving insane levels of corruption and over-the-top mob tactics, you should probably have a lot of dockworkers in your film. Some of the most famous movies ever made, like &#8220;On the Waterfront&#8221; starring Marlon Brando, made use of this conceit involving longshoremen. For generations, everyone&#8217;s understood that this industry functions a bit like a fiefdom, independent of the rest of the country. It promotes from within. It protects its own. And when it wants something, it&#8217;s not afraid to shut down the U.S. economy in order to get it.
Over the years, various presidents have had to tangle with the dockworkers and their unions. Some of these presidents, like FDR and Obama, have granted dockworkers massive concessions. Other presidents, like George W. Bush, went to <a href="https://money.cnn.com/2002/10/08/news/ports_longshoremen/">court</a> and used the Taft-Hartley Act to end strikes that were costing the U.S. economy billions of dollars a day. But no administration in the history of this country has adopted the approach that the Biden-Harris administration is now taking.
Right now, without any objection from the White House whatsoever, a 78-year-old union boss named Harold Daggett is proudly shaking down the entire country. He&#8217;s going on television wearing gold medallions and flaunting his $700,000 salary as his union, the 50,000-member International Longshoremen’s Association, shuts down 36 ports — including the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. These ports, taken together, handle more than 50% of the imports and exports to this country. The cost to the U.S. economy is more than $4 billion a day, and very soon, this shutdown could lead to shortages and mass layoffs.
And Harold Daggett has made it very clear that he doesn&#8217;t care about any of these effects. He doesn&#8217;t care what happens to millions of Americans as a result of this strike. Watch:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
Longshoremen pres. boasts about a strike hurting everyday Americans: “People never gave a shit about us until now, when they finally realize that the chain is being broke now.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&nbsp;
Notice that there&#8217;s no rational argument here. He&#8217;s not arguing that dockworkers deserve higher salaries because they can&#8217;t make ends meet, or because they&#8217;re doing such a great job, or because they&#8217;re efficient, or any of that. He&#8217;s saying they should receive higher salaries because they&#8217;re holding America hostage. They have the power, so we need to pay the ransom.
When you look at the specific demands this union is making, the absurdity becomes even more apparent. Daggett wants the ports to give dockworkers a 77% pay raise to $69.00 an hour, after turning down a 50% pay raise. That&#8217;s far more than dockworkers make on the West Coast. Daggett also wants more &#8220;container royalties,&#8221; which gives money to longshoremen even if they&#8217;re not working. And he wants a complete ban on any forms of automation at ports.
<h3><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-1455-member-exclusive" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WATCH: The Matt Walsh Show</a></h3>
Previously I&#8217;ve talked about the rise of automation, and how it&#8217;s a threat to many Americans&#8217; jobs. There are obviously a lot of important concerns as far as how automation is used, and how many jobs it&#8217;s allowed to replace. But in this context, this blanket demand — that no automation is used at all — is a dead giveaway. It&#8217;s evidence that these dockworkers don&#8217;t care about the economy at all, or remaining competitive with what other countries are doing.
Here&#8217;s a look at what they&#8217;re doing in ports in China, to give you some idea.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
Longshoremen in China:

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
They still have people working there, as you can see. But they&#8217;re using cellular connections and computers to remotely unload and offload the cargo. In many cases, that&#8217;s safer, faster, and cheaper than having humans do it. We don&#8217;t have any of this, and it&#8217;s because of unions. These unions are a big part of why U.S. ports are so inefficient compared to ports all over the world. As recently as 2020, the World Bank found that there wasn&#8217;t a single U.S. port that ranked in the top 50 global ports in terms of &#8220;getting a ship in and out of port,&#8221; quickly and affordably. Not a single one. Overall, our ports are about half as efficient as global ports on average. And now, the unions representing the workers at these ports are demanding a massive raise — along with a ban on any form of technology that could make the ports more efficient.
If the Biden administration wanted to put an end to this, they could. They could do what Bush did, and take this union to court. They could apply public pressure. They could also threaten to repeal other laws on the books that already benefit the dockworkers&#8217; unions. There&#8217;s something called the Jones Act, for example. It requires that all goods transported between U.S. ports by water are carried on ships that are built in the U.S. and crewed by Americans. This leads to hundreds of millions of dollars in additional costs, but unions <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/01/opinion/port-strike-shipping-union-inflation-prices.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">love</a> the law because it means more union jobs are created.
Of course, that law won&#8217;t change, and no one in the Biden administration wants it to change. They don&#8217;t want to upset Harold Daggett — someone the DOJ once accused of being an &#8220;associate&#8221; of a mafia family. He has quite a life story, by the way. 
The New York Post <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/10/01/business/who-is-harold-daggett-the-port-union-boss-with-alleged-mafia-ties/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reports</a>: 
<blockquote>Daggett took the witness stand that year after federal prosecutors charged him with racketeering. &#8230; During the course of the trial, one of Daggett’s co-defendants – Lawrence Ricci, an alleged major mob figure – disappeared. His body was found weeks later decomposing in the trunk of a car outside a New Jersey diner. Ricci’s death remained unsolved, though speculation circulated that he was killed after refusing to plead guilty to avoid news reports of the trial. &#8230; Daggett was acquitted.</blockquote>
So Harold Daggett beat that racketeering rap. And now he&#8217;s holding the U.S. economy hostage. Ships are having to re-route to the West Coast in order to prevent economic calamity, all because of him. It&#8217;s quite a recovery for Harold Daggett&#8217;s career. For the rest of us, it&#8217;s a crisis that has no real precedent in the past several decades.

And this is just one of the several disasters that are unfolding in the final days of the Biden-Harris administration. Yesterday, Iran launched a volley of more than 180 ballistic missiles into Israel. This is the second direct attack by Iran against Israel in just the last few months. It&#8217;s put us much closer to World War III than we&#8217;ve been in recent history. And it comes just a year after the Biden administration&#8217;s national security adviser bragged that the Middle East was &#8220;quieter&#8221; than it&#8217;s been in two decades.  Watch:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
Biden National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan (last week): &quot;The Middle East region is quieter today than it has been in two decades&quot; <a href="https://t.co/59MYUXhmHf">pic.twitter.com/59MYUXhmHf</a>
&mdash; RNC Research (@RNCResearch) <a href="https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/status/1710747691024879691?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 7, 2023</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
A week after Jake Sullivan made that claim, Hamas terrorists backed by Iran committed a massacre in Israel. And now rockets are flying back and forth. And despite all of this, Jake Sullivan still has his job. He wasn&#8217;t fired. He wasn&#8217;t run out of Washington after making it abundantly clear that he has no idea what&#8217;s happening in the Middle East — which you&#8217;d think would be disqualifying for a national security adviser. They forced Mike Flynn out of the job of national security adviser after, what, three weeks? And then you have someone like Jake Sullivan, who&#8217;s obviously incompetent to the point of being dangerous, and he suffers no consequences whatsoever.
Again, nothing like this happened during the four years of the Trump administration. This level of international chaos, and complete ineptitude, simply was not present. Iran was not launching rockets directly into Israel, just like Russia wasn&#8217;t sending tanks directly into Ukraine. Are Iran and Russia taking advantage of the fact that the brain of the current U.S. president is basically applesauce at this point? That seems like a valid theory, especially since the Biden administration has no alternative hypothesis for what&#8217;s going on. If you ask them, everything&#8217;s fine — until suddenly it isn&#8217;t.
That&#8217;s the same story we&#8217;re seeing in North Carolina, as I discussed yesterday.

After failing to evacuate residents from the western portion of the state, the federal government is now failing to help many of the survivors. Yesterday I shared an email that came from someone named Jason, who&#8217;s from the rural area of Ashe County. He reported that FEMA was nowhere in sight. Here&#8217;s an update he sent me last night: 
<blockquote>I just got home from volunteering with a search and rescue team in Lansing which is one of the flooded rural towns. &#8230; Funny thing is the FEMA people showed up today but they are worthless. We ran into a bunch while we were delivering water and generators and they were just walking around making sure that people were still in the house.</blockquote>
So the federal government is still failing to help people in the most devastated rural areas. And communications are still spotty, in part because the government didn&#8217;t want to spend any money on Elon Musk&#8217;s Starlink system because they have a vendetta against Elon Musk. As a result, private citizens are now installing Starlink systems in the area. Journalist Nick Sortor just <a href="https://x.com/nicksortor/status/1841240114032431292" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that &#8220;first responders still do not have reliable communications&#8221; in North Carolina after four days. He uploaded this footage of three North Carolina State Police units giving him a police escort so that he can deploy Starlink systems for others to use, and he added that the police are, &#8220;literally using MY Window Starlink to communicate with each other!&#8221; Watch:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

The federal government spends hundreds of billions of dollars to prepare for disasters like this, ostensibly so that vital communications equipment and supplies are available within hours. But they haven&#8217;t been doing that. For the past several days, random people — citizen journalists and volunteers — have been doing a better job than the government agency that supposedly specializes in disaster relief.

So wherever you look — whether it&#8217;s the Middle East, or North Carolina, or the nation&#8217;s ports — you&#8217;ll find an ongoing, once-in-a-lifetime disaster that&#8217;s threatening to spiral even further out of control. This is what the country — and the world — look like at the end of the Biden-Harris term. There are multiple catastrophes happening all at once. It&#8217;s impossible for anyone to deny that the world is a measurably worse and more dangerous place today than it was when they took office. Everyone knows it. Even Kamala Harris knows it. It&#8217;s why she had to duck the first question of the presidential debate, when she was asked whether Americans are better off now than they were four years ago. 
This is the Biden-Harris &#8220;legacy.&#8221; It&#8217;ll either end in January, or inevitably, these people will lead us into a major catastrophe that we can&#8217;t come back from.

Americans are once again watching Matt Walsh’s “<a href="https://get.dailywire.com/wiaw/subscribe/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">What is a Woman?</a>” following the box office success of his comedy film “<a href="https://www.amiracist.com/">Am I Racist?</a>”
“Am I Racist?” — The Daily Wire’s first theatrical release — became a huge hit as people watched Walsh’s newest hit movie on the big screen across the country. The film debuted as the #1 new comedy and #1 independent movie in America and was in the top five of the box office on its opening weekend. Along with exposing the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) grift, “Am I Racist?” also reminded viewers that this isn’t Walsh’s first film to dominate headlines and conversations. 
The audience loved “Am I Racist?,” giving it a 97% rating on Rotten Tomatoes while comedian and podcast giant Joe Rogan said the film is “one of the best comedies [he’s] seen in a long time.” 
Since the release of “Am I Racist?,” Walsh’s 2022 documentary “What is a Woman?” has gained renewed interest on DailyWire+. “What is a Woman?” quickly became the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/what-is-a-woman-dominates-as-number-1-most-watched-movie-at-home-97-fresh-audience-score-on-rotten-tomatoes">#1 most-watched</a> movie at home in June of 2022. Despite many mainstream critics refusing to review “What is a Woman?,” the film was a massive hit with the audience and independent reviewers, and it still sits at an <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/what_is_a_woman">86% audience score</a> on Rotten Tomatoes.
<a href="https://get.dailywire.com/wiaw/subscribe/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WATCH &#8216;WHAT IS A WOMAN?&#8217; ON DAILYWIRE+</a>
“What is a Woman?” continued its success one year after its release, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/what-is-a-woman-reaches-no-1-for-streaming-documentaries-on-rotten-tomatoes">hitting the #1 spot</a> for streaming movies on Rotten Tomatoes on its first anniversary, beating out other popular movies at the time, such as “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” and “The Super Mario Bros. Movie.” 
“What is a Woman?” challenges radical gender ideology through provocative interviews and humor. In the film, Walsh asks simple questions about biology and transgenderism and listens as leftists struggle to answer. The documentary wasn’t just a hit on the screen but was also lauded by many as the beginning of a pivotal cultural movement that forced people to think about the logical fallacies and harmful practices of radical gender theory. 
Following the release of “What is a Woman?” and Walsh’s continued advocacy to protect children from dangerous and life-altering gender surgeries, numerous states passed laws banning gender procedures on minors. 
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/mississippi-bans-sex-change-procedures-for-minors-matt-walsh-delivers-remarks-with-governor">Mississippi</a> passed a ban on gender procedures for minors with Walsh attending the bill-signing ceremony. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/tennessee-law-protecting-kids-from-trans-procedures-to-take-full-effect-after-court-victory">Tennessee</a>, Walsh’s home state, also passed a law protecting children from gender procedures after the Daily Wire host revealed that the life-altering producers were being performed on children at Vanderbilt’s Pediatric Transgender Clinic. 
Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Indiana, Ohio, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Texas, and numerous other states have also passed laws protecting children from gender procedures in the months following the release of “What is a Woman?”  
Now, Americans are once again turning to the documentary that started the movement to protect children from being used as guinea pigs for radical gender theory.

A conference hosted by the largest professional association of pediatricians in the United States kicked out a group of detransitioners who sought to share their perspectives with doctors, The Daily Wire has learned.
Detransitioners are individuals who attempted the impossible — to change their gender through hormonal or surgical transgender interventions — before stopping treatments and living as their biological sex. They are largely ignored in the mainstream media and dismissed by medical organizations. But many detransitioned individuals have taken their stories to social media and grown large followings as they spread awareness about the dangers of so-called &#8220;gender-affirming care.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
BREAKING: The <a href="https://twitter.com/AmerAcadPeds?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@AmerAcadPeds</a> has kicked out a detrans group that included Chloe Cole, Abel Garcia, Soren Aldaco, and Nicolas Flowers from their annual conference. Why is the AAP preventing doctors from hearing these stories? <a href="https://t.co/GI0smBFF2C">pic.twitter.com/GI0smBFF2C</a>
— Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) <a href="https://twitter.com/MattWalshBlog/status/1840859283040453079?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 30, 2024</a></blockquote>
The American Academy of Pediatrics <a href="https://publications.aap.org/aapnews/news/25340/AAP-reaffirms-gender-affirming-care-policy?autologincheck=redirected">voted in 2023</a> to reaffirm its 2018 policy statement promoting so-called &#8220;gender-affirming care&#8221; and authorizing the development of guidance for pediatricians based on a &#8220;systematic review of the evidence.&#8221; AAP CEO Mark Del Monte promised at the time that AAP will continue to “ensure young people get the reproductive and gender-affirming care they need and are seen, heard and valued as they are.&#8221;
Members of the Alliance for Mental Health, a coalition of groups advocating for mental health over medical treatments for gender confusion, attended the American Academy of Pediatrics conference this weekend in Orlando, Florida. Detransitioners Chloe Cole, Abel Garcia, Soren Aldaco, and Nicholas Flowers were present, along with activists Erin Friday and January Littlejohn.
The group spent over $25,000 on a booth where they could easily access attendees, Friday shared with The Daily Wire. Their goal was to communicate with the doctors who were traveling from around the world to attend the conference. And they were successful, Garcia told The Daily Wire, until they were booted from the conference on Monday morning, their third day at the conference.
Video footage shared with The Daily Wire&#8217;s Matt Walsh shows a security guard claiming that one of the individuals had violated &#8220;the code of contact last year.&#8221; The guard tells them they need to &#8220;leave the event immediately&#8221; and return their name badges, giving them about five minutes to disassemble their booth.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
3/ Rather than speak for themselves, the AAP sent venue security to inform these mental health professionals, mothers, and detransitioners that they had 10 minutes to pack up their booth and exit the conference venue. <a href="https://t.co/ZatB9hLfpu">pic.twitter.com/ZatB9hLfpu</a>

&#8220;They don&#8217;t want detransitioners here at the AAP,&#8221; Littlejohn can be seen telling the guard. &#8220;They want to pretend that they don&#8217;t exist. What&#8217;s really sad is, our information was really well received by the pediatricians here. We are very concerned about the mental health of people with gender dysphoria, and it&#8217;s really time that the AAP acknowledge the harm that&#8217;s occurring.&#8221;
The AAP did not immediately respond to requests for comment from The Daily Wire explaining which individual was problematic enough to get them removed from the conference. Littlejohn believes they were removed because of their message: that the AAP should not be endorsing so-called &#8220;gender-affirming care,&#8221; transgender surgeries, hormones, and puberty blockers, for minors.
Garcia acted as the Spanish coordinator for the Alliance for Mental Health, he said on Monday, sharing that his job was to speak with Spanish attendees from countries including Mexico, Peru, and Guatemala. The doctors with whom their group spoke were &#8220;shocked&#8221; to discover what the AAP has condoned, Garcia said. These doctors reportedly shared that in their countries, adults were seeking gender transitions, but such procedures were not being pushed on children.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
6/ “We matter, our voices matter, and our health matters. We went through such a traumatic medical experiment, and yet we’re still constantly put into this turmoil…” said Nicolas Flowers, another detransitioner escorted from the event. <a href="https://twitter.com/nicolasblooms?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@nicolasblooms</a> <a href="https://t.co/PnIXo3far0">pic.twitter.com/PnIXo3far0</a>

&#8220;I believe our efforts were successful,&#8221; Garcia shared in a phone interview on Monday. &#8220;Our goal was to not get kicked out on the first day&#8230;being kicked out on the third day was the best option because that way we had the max amount of time to communicate with the attendees about protecting children and why the AAP supports mutilating children and &#8216;gender-affirming care.'&#8221;

There are a lot of stories out there about lottery winners who go on to destroy their lives. Something like 70% of them supposedly go bankrupt within a few years. And it&#8217;s not hard to see why. When you give a lot of money and attention to a person who didn&#8217;t earn any of it, that person doesn&#8217;t suddenly change overnight. Instead, more often than not, all of their worst character traits are amplified ten times over. And in many cases, that leads to a very public and humiliating collapse.
This is a principle that doesn&#8217;t just apply to individuals. It applies to organizations too. Unearned fame and fortune are far more destructive than they might appear. And right now, there&#8217;s no organization on the planet that proves this point more than the WNBA. The league just posted its highest average game viewership in 24 years. They&#8217;re bringing in massive new sponsorships, at least by the league&#8217;s standards. They&#8217;re selling out arenas, which used to be unheard of. This should be a dream come true for everyone involved in the WNBA — from the executives to the players to the reporters who, for their sins in a past life, have been cursed with the job of covering a women&#8217;s basketball league. Everyone should be overjoyed.
But there&#8217;s a big problem. All of this success — every bit of it — is due to the presence of one player in the league: a generational talent named <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/caitlin-clark" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Caitlin Clark</a>. She&#8217;s the reason the WNBA just won the lottery. Without Caitlin Clark, no one cares about any of these players or the league. With her, most people still don’t care. But a lot more people care than did before. And everyone knows that. Therefore, everyone in the league other than Caitlin Clark is doing exactly what so many lottery winners do. They&#8217;re allowing all of their worst personality traits to surface. They can&#8217;t help themselves.
Several months ago, I <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/white-player-diversifies-the-wnba-champions-of-diversity-are-somehow-not-happy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">covered</a> the many cheap shots that Clark has had to deal with on the court. Some of these cheap shots look a lot like <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/wnba-upgrades-foul-on-star-caitlin-clark-to-flagrant-1-violation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">criminal assault</a>, but of course they weren&#8217;t prosecuted. I also talked about the many &#8220;champions of diversity&#8221; in the media who are strangely very unhappy about the diversity that Clark has brought to the WNBA, a league that&#8217;s mostly made up of black players. There&#8217;s been a lot of resentment in this league lately, in particular since this season began.
And the thing about resentment, as we all know, is that it tends to fester over time. It gets worse and worse. And that&#8217;s exactly what we&#8217;re seeing now that the season is winding down and the playoffs are underway. Over the past week, race hysteria in the WNBA has somehow reached yet another inflection point. The league is currently in the midst of the single most contrived racism scandal in any professional sport, at least since the fake noose in Bubba Wallace’s garage.
<h3><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-1453-the-matt-walsh-show" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WATCH: The Matt Walsh Show</a></h3>
Specifically, a bunch of WNBA players have come out claiming that they&#8217;ve been victimized by &#8220;racial slurs&#8221; and other racist attacks. In other words, they are now accusing the people who have started showing up to WNBA games — for the first time in more than two decades — of being horrible racists.
Now for the fine print. None of these &#8220;racial slurs&#8221; — some of which have supposedly occurred during games — have actually been caught on camera. There&#8217;s no visual or audio evidence that might substantiate any of this. There isn&#8217;t a single credible report. And that&#8217;s extremely unusual, obviously, given that there are cameras and smartphones at every WNBA game. 
You&#8217;d think that, if a mob of racists were buying up WNBA tickets so they could heckle the players with racial slurs, then the video would be all over the internet. But those videos are not all over the internet. They aren’t anywhere on the internet. So instead we have to take the players&#8217; word for it. 
Here&#8217;s Brittney Griner, for example:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="001 Griner" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/mSIhS7oAfsI?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
The question was about the massive growth of this league, which was dead in the water just a year ago. &#8220;What do you think of all the new fans,&#8221; asks the reporter. And instead of some gratitude — some appreciation for the people who saved the WNBA, who pay to come out to see bad players like Brittney Griner — we get resentment. The fans are racist, says Griner. They buy tickets just so they can yell racist things. And not only that — these racists happen to be magicians. They can shout racist things while also being completely invisible. You can hear what they say, but it&#8217;s impossible to record it or broadcast it anywhere. They&#8217;re like ghosts. They just appear in the stands, shout the N-word a few times, and then they disappear.
Put aside the fact that Griner is obviously lying. Let&#8217;s say, hypothetically, that someone did shout a slur at a WNBA game, and it really bothered Brittney Griner. Nothing about the answer makes sense, even in that context. Why would that be the first thing that Griner mentions when the reporter asks about the fans? Why not say, &#8220;The overwhelming majority of the fans are great people, and I&#8217;m so happy they&#8217;re paying money to see me playing basketball as badly as I do&#8221;? 
If anyone should be striking a note of gratitude, it&#8217;s <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/brittney-griner">Brittney Griner</a>. Less than two years ago, the Biden administration traded away a Russian arms dealer — someone who conspired to murder American citizens — in order to get Griner out of a Russian prison. So Griner has every reason to be extremely grateful to this country — not just because of the paycheck for playing basketball poorly, but also because the United States is a lot nicer than a Siberian gulag. At the very least, you&#8217;d expect Griner to be happier than the usual WNBA player. But that&#8217;s obviously not the case.

Of course the media — especially the sports media — is uncritically reporting on this phantom crisis of racism at WNBA games. Just search “WNBA racism” in google and you’ll get dozens and dozens of mainstream media articles frantically shouting about the racism crisis in the WNBA. Many other players have raised the alarm about this invented epidemic. Here’s another one:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Notice the sad music in the background. Law enforcement might have to get involved. WNBA games have become Klan rallies, from what we’re told. You won’t see any of that on video or hear any of it. But take the WNBA’s word for it. Take the media’s word for it. Yet some WNBA players are still upset that the media isn’t making an even bigger deal out of the fake racism scandal. Reading from USA Today:
<blockquote>“Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese says the media should have done more to combat the ongoing issue of racism in women&#8217;s basketball before it reached a boiling point. The WNBA on Wednesday condemned all ‘racist, derogatory or threatening comments’ that have been directed toward players after Connecticut Sun All-Star Alyssa Thomas called out &#8220;racial comments from the Indiana Fever fan base&#8221; following the Sun&#8217;s series-clinching 87-81 victory over the Fever. Reese said this has been a long-standing issue, noting that she&#8217;s been the subject of racially motivated hate for some time. Reese, however, said her pleas for accountability and action have been repeatedly ignored. ‘The media has benefited from my pain &amp; me being villainized to create a narrative,’ <a href="https://twitter.com/Reese10Angel/status/1839457079544656170">she wrote on X</a>. ‘They allowed this. This was beneficial to them&#8230; Y’all a little late to the party and could have tried to put out this fire way before it started.’”</blockquote>
Yes, it’s a fire raging. You won’t see the fire. But it’s there. Trust Angel Reese on this one. This shaming obviously had the desired effect on some in the media. Which led to this line of questioning:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="002 loaded question" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/eBE4PnFI7gk?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
&#8220;NaLyssa, how did you personally deal with the hate, the racism, the attention, the scrutiny?&#8221; If you listen to these press conferences, you&#8217;d think that skinheads are rushing the court and assaulting the players in the middle of the games. At the very least, you&#8217;d expect that this player would&#8217;ve been subjected to some kind of horrible racist chant from one of the WNBA&#8217;s racist ghost fans.
Here&#8217;s what actually happened. NaLyssa&#8217;s has a girlfriend named DiJonai Carrington who also plays in the WNBA. And recently, Carrington nearly took Caitlin Clark&#8217;s eye out on the court just a few minutes into a game. This is one of many flagrant fouls against Clark that have occurred since she started in the league, and this one wasn&#8217;t even called. Watch:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Caitlin Clark HIT IN EYE, NO FOUL on Dijonai Carrington | Indiana Fever vs Connecticut Sun WNBA" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/DW8AjbzpYUk?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
After this foul, as you&#8217;d expect, there were a lot of angry fans on social media. To a lot of people, this looked intentional. So in response, a USA Today reporter named Christine Brennan did what any reasonable &#8220;sports journalist&#8221; would do. She asked Carrington if the hit was intentional. Watch:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="004 Carrington" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/PhyF3JgIbK0?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
These are obviously reasonable questions from Christine Brennan. They&#8217;re not &#8220;racist.&#8221; They&#8217;re not offensive. They&#8217;re the bare minimum you&#8217;d expect under the circumstances. But Carrington immediately gets snippy and obnoxious in response. And then, just for asking these questions, Brennan — who, incidentally, is one of the biggest <a href="https://x.com/SbondyNBA/status/1839734099054887063" target="_blank" rel="noopener">champions</a> of women&#8217;s sports in the industry — is now getting dogpiled.
In particular, the WNBA Players&#8217; Association <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thewnbpa/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;ig_rid=b7e4450c-3bc6-4366-80b3-052bb522ae36">just put out</a> one of the most demented statements imaginable. They wrote:
<blockquote>We call B.S. &#8230; To unprofessional members of the media like Christine Brennan: You are not fooling anyone. That so-called interview in the name of journalism was a blatant attempt to bait a professional athlete into participating in a narrative that is false and designed to fuel racist, homophobic, and misogynistic vitriol on social media. You cannot hide behind your tenure.</blockquote>
The statement then said Brennan was guilty of &#8220;abusing&#8221; her &#8220;privileges,&#8221; and charged that she does not &#8220;deserve&#8221; her &#8220;credentials.&#8221; It continues: 
<blockquote>We call on USA Today Network to review its Principles of Ethical Conduct for Newsrooms and address what we believe is a violation of several core principles, including seeking and reporting the truth. USA Today Sports should explain why a reporter with clear bias and ulterior motives was assigned to cover the league. We also urge the league to review its policies and take measures to prevent such issues, protecting the integrity of the game and its players.</blockquote>
So we&#8217;re at the point now that journalists can&#8217;t even ask black players about fouls they commit against Caitlin Clark without being accused of racism for asking the question. That&#8217;s how much racism there is in the WNBA. Even asking questions is now racist. Obviously there&#8217;s no reason to take any of these people seriously. 
But, just to make sure I wasn&#8217;t missing anything, I went looking to see if I could find the most egregious examples of racism in the WNBA. And I came across this monologue from a sports commentator named Nick Wright. It&#8217;s from a couple of days ago and it’s about as unhinged as you&#8217;d expect. Watch:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="005 Ban Nails FIX" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_iqDjQLN-ag?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
His grand example proving the WNBA is racist is that a woman mocked the player who gave Caitlin Clark a black eye with her nails. Apparently that&#8217;s racist because some black people have long nails. That&#8217;s it. That&#8217;s why this podcast host is invoking the Civil War. Mockery of WNBA players is a threat to the entire country, apparently — at least if those WNBA players are black. If they&#8217;re white, you can mock them all you want. You can assault them on the court, in fact.
What this fake outrage tells you is that &#8220;racism&#8221; isn&#8217;t really what they&#8217;re upset about. This is just too manufactured and overblown to take seriously. They&#8217;re reaching — to a degree that&#8217;s comical and delusional at the same time. This scandal has been invented, out of whole cloth, by WNBA players for one reason, and one reason only: They are wracked with envy and resentment that the most popular player in the league is white. What they&#8217;re really claiming is that Caitlin Clark, by bringing a bunch of white fans to the league, has naturally also brought racism. Basically they&#8217;re complaining that too many white people are watching women&#8217;s basketball now. And for her part, Caitlin Clark has basically <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/sports/caitlin-clark-addresses-racism-following-wnba-statement-those-arent-fans-those-are-trolls" target="_blank" rel="noopener">gone along</a> with this narrative. She made a statement denouncing all of the made up racism.

The racial hysteria reminds me of the summer of 2020, just playing out on a much, much, much smaller stage. A white woman playing basketball has become the WNBA&#8217;s George Floyd moment. And just like we saw with the George Floyd situation, before long, people are going to start pushing back. No normal person wants to pay money to support a team, only to be told they&#8217;re racist and horrible. That&#8217;s a big part of why the DEI grift has begun to collapse.
And it&#8217;s why the WNBA&#8217;s brief resurgence isn&#8217;t going to last very long either. Very soon, the league will be back on the path to irrelevance and bankruptcy. It&#8217;s clear that none of these players or executives or &#8220;sports journalists&#8221; really want the league to succeed, anyway. To borrow an adage from the world of sports commentary, you might even say the WNBA is like a rubber band — one that&#8217;s been stretched to the limit by pathological narcissists who only know how to complain and demean their own fans on the basis of their skin color. And one deranged sports podcast and self-pitying press conference at a time, that rubber band is about to break.

Recently, there&#8217;s been deep concern expressed by some Christian commentators about my new film, &#8220;Am I Racist.&#8221; Thee pundits are troubled by the film because, they say, we used deceptive tactics to capture the footage. This is profoundly problematic, they say. They are disturbed. A Christian has made a movie that is interesting and funny and effective and that appeals to a wide audience — and this of course is a cause for great alarm among the sorts of Christians who want to make sure that we never do anything interesting, funny, or effective, especially if it appeals to a wide audience. No, what they want, always, are things that are lame, boring, redundant and insular.
I’ve already addressed the arguments these people have made. I don’t need to address it again. And yet here we are. I happened to see a clip posted to Twitter by the account Woke Preacher Clips. This is a conversation on a podcast called &#8220;Holy Post,&#8221; hosted by Phil Vischer, best known as one of the creators of &#8220;Veggie Tales.&#8221; Vischer has gone woke in recent years — or maybe always was, I don’t know. But it’s no great surprise that he is apparently not a fan of mine. He’s joined on this episode by Pastor Mike Erre and Skye Jethani, who is now a Christian speaker and was once, I believe, also a pastor. These three brilliant minds came together to talk about the film — a film that, as far as I can tell, none of them have seen. Listen:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="008 Am I Racist Review" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/GdBAx3D3bI8?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
I’m going to let them continue but I do want to interject here to say, yes, actually, we do need more of that in the Christian world — comedy, satire, using the Left’s own methods against them. That is, without question, something we need more of. But these three men disagree. Let’s get to their argument, even though they didn’t see the movie and haven’t the slightest damned clue what they’re even talking about. Still, here it is:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="009 Is This Christian" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/0ZGB0HW6_0A?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
I want to interject one more time, briefly, before we hear them make their compelling case against the movie they didn’t watch. I just want you to notice the tone. You see the guy on bottom left with his head in his hands, rolling his eyes. Pastor Erre is flippant and dismissive. So is Phil Vischer. The whole thing is so beneath them, so silly. It’s absurd that they are even lowering themselves to discuss my film. That’s the general tone, which pervades all the rest of what we’re about to hear.
It’s also the attitude that these types of people usually have when discussing me or my work. But notice something — they’re discussing my work. I am now discussing them discussing my work. But I’m not discussing any of their work. Nobody is. That’s because they haven’t done anything remotely worth discussing. They haven’t done anything at all. Vischer made &#8220;Veggie Tales&#8221; 30 years ago, which is fine. That was a successful series about singing vegetables. It was something though, at least. But these other two — and Visher himself, post &#8220;Veggie Tales&#8221; — haven’t done anything, ever, to move or impact the culture in any way. They hang out in their pretentious, woke pseudo-Christian bubble, smelling their own farts and telling themselves how much smarter and more nuanced and sophisticated they are. But they don’t do anything. They don’t create anything. Instead they spend their time dismissively critiquing the people who are actually doing and creating. And, look, I’m used to having useless people criticize me. That happens every day. But when they do it with such a snide attitude — that’s where it annoys me.
<h3><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-1451-member-exclusive" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WATCH: The Matt Walsh Show</a></h3>
Here’s my challenge to any of the three dudes in that podcast. Go out and create something — anything at all — that makes a noticeable and positive cultural impact. I don’t mean something that your liberal Christian friends like. I mean something that moves the culture in some way. Something that people outside of your bubble have to sit up and take note of, and grapple with, and think about. Make anything that achieves that. Could be a show, a movie, a song, even a podcast. Not the one you’re currently on. That has zero impact. Just anything at all that makes an impact. That’s my challenge. And I would suggest that if you can’t do that — if you can’t even conceive of how to go about doing that — then you should probably have a little humility and wipe the smarmy smirks off your faces. Not only that, but you aren’t qualified to hold the positions you currently hold. You should not be in a self appointed position of Christian leadership or as a supposed Christian thought leader if you actually don’t know how to effectively spread a message of truth and fight back against evil in modern culture. You really should be sitting and listening, not talking to an audience, because you don’t have anything worthwhile to say.
But maybe I’m being harsh. Let me now continue listening to them so that we can find out if they do in fact have something worthwhile to say.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="010 Win or Lose The Culture War" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/CecuWKsbQFE?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
There is a lot there. All of it bad. It is a confused, morally and theologically incoherent stew of nonsense. And it is coming from exactly the sort of weak, ineffectual, uninspired, utterly useless, limp-wristed, spineless little mealy-mouthed empty vessels who have all but destroyed the Christian church in the West. And that’s why I get a little heated about this. It’s not because I’m defending the movie. The movie doesn’t need defense. It’s doing great. The audience response has been overwhelmingly positive. It’s certainly not worth getting upset about the opinions of these three guys nobody cares about.
What upsets me is that these three guys — and the legions of Christian “leaders” just like them — have done catastrophic damage to the body of Christ. And that damage can best be summarized by the statement from the man on the bottom right of the screen — Pastor Erre. It was a statement enthusiastically co-signed by the other two. He said: “You can’t follow the Sermon on the Mount and engage in a culture war.” That very concisely summarizes the effeminate, castrated form of Christianity that has invaded the christian church like a parasite. And it could not possibly be more wrong. You might as well say that you can’t be a good boxer if you know how to throw a punch. It is a statement that misses the point so much as to be basically unintelligible. It is a wrongness so wrong that it induces stroke symptoms in those who encounter it.
No, pastor. Let me clear this up for you. You can’t follow the Sermon on the Mount unless you engage in the culture war. &#8220;Do not light a candle and put it under a bushel.&#8221; &#8220;Let your light shine before men.&#8221; That’s what Jesus tells us in the Sermon on the Mount. And that is the culture war. It is being a light, a flame, a torch of truth in the darkness. What do you think a culture war is?
Let’s break this down. I’ll try to make it as simple as possible for you: Culture is nothing less than everything that makes up society — our institutions, our traditions, our customs, our art, our collective achievements. Everything that defines our society. That is the culture. The culture war, therefore, is the fight over that.
<h3><a href="https://www.amiracist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Am I Racist? Is In Theaters NOW — Get Your Tickets Here!</a></h3>
Nearly every aspect of our society — of our culture — is now controlled and defined by an ideology that not only denies but aggressively militates against Christian values and christian teaching. It’s an ideology that embraces and promotes debauchery, relativism, self-worship. An ideology that celebrates the mass slaughter of the unborn. An ideology that seeks to inflame resentment, suspicion, and hostility between different races. Which is what our movie deals with. We want to stop that, defeat that ideology and install Christian values in its place. The other option is to surrender. Tell me, pastor, which part of the Sermon on the Mount calls for us to surrender to evil? Where did you see that? Can you quote me a chapter and verse on that one? What I see when I read the Scriptures are continued, relentless calls to fight evil, not lie down and acquiesce to it.
But you know all of that, don’t you? See, people like you pretend to be too good for the “culture war.” You stick up your nose and act like you’re above it all. But in reality, you are yourself actively fighting a culture war. You’re fighting one right now. All three of you in that video were fighting a culture war in the video itself. It’s just that you’re fighting on the other side. Trying to convince us not to fight is a battle tactic that you are employing. You are employing it on behalf of the side that despised Christian values, Christian teaching, and the truth of the Gospel. And, sadly, this tactic has been very effective up to this point. But that’s starting to change now, finally. We see you people for what you really are, and what you’re really doing, and who you are really aligned with.

VeggieTales

On August 11, 1998, a lifelong criminal named Marcellus Williams was looking for a house to rob in a gated community in University City, Missouri.
By that point, Williams already had several prior criminal convictions, including for robbery and burglary. He shouldn&#8217;t have been on the streets at all, but apparently a judge let him out of jail so that he could commit more crimes and victimize more people. And that&#8217;s exactly why he was in University City on August 11.
When Marcellus Williams knocked on the door of a home owned by a 42-year-old journalist named Felicia Gayle, no one answered. So Williams broke a window and let himself in. After he noticed that someone on the second floor was taking a shower, Williams went downstairs to the kitchen, grabbed a butcher knife, and waited. When Gayle emerged from the shower, Marcellus Williams stabbed her 43 times, including seven separate fatal wounds. He then stole Gayle&#8217;s purse and her husband&#8217;s laptop before leaving the house to pick up his girlfriend.
Immediately, his girlfriend noticed something was wrong. Williams&#8217; shirt was bloody. His neck was scratched. Inexplicably, there was also a new laptop in his car. The next day, Williams&#8217; girlfriend noticed a purse in the trunk that contained Felicia Gayle&#8217;s identification card. When she confronted Williams about this, he admitted that he had just murdered a woman. He threatened to kill his girlfriend if she went to the police.
Then, a few months later, Williams was incarcerated for an unrelated crime. (This is the theme in his life, after all; he&#8217;s constantly in prison because he&#8217;s constantly committing serious crimes). In this particular instance, when Williams was in jail, promptly bragged to another inmate that he had murdered Felicia Gayle, and provided non-public information about the killing. When that inmate got out of jail, he went to the police department and told them what he had heard. During their investigation, detectives spoke to Williams&#8217; girlfriend, who confirmed that he had confessed to the murder. The police also found several items belonging to the victim in the Buick that Williams was driving, as well as the stolen laptop belonging to the victim&#8217;s husband.
On these <a href="https://law.justia.com/cases/missouri/supreme-court/2003/sc-83934-1.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">facts</a>, Williams was convicted by a jury and sentenced to death. On appeal, Williams&#8217; attorneys raised several objections, most of which were technical in nature. But there were a couple of claims that related to his guilt or innocence. Specifically, Williams said that the jury should have been given the opportunity to determine that he was a mere accomplice to the murders, as opposed to the actual killer. That&#8217;s because, according to the defense, &#8220;several unidentified hairs and shoe prints were found at the murder scene.&#8221; Additionally, Williams&#8217; girlfriend was supposedly &#8220;seen with a laptop computer&#8221; after Williams was incarcerated.
<h4><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-1451-member-exclusive" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WATCH: The Matt Walsh Show</a></h4>
But these arguments weren&#8217;t convincing to the Supreme Court of Missouri. For one thing, there was evidence showing that &#8220;several workmen&#8221; and &#8220;hundreds of guests&#8221; had been inside the home in the months prior to the murder, so you&#8217;d expect to have some unidentified shoe prints and hairs lying around. Additionally, Williams told both his girlfriend and the inmate that he was alone when he committed the murders. And finally, there was no evidence that Williams&#8217; girlfriend possessed the same laptop computer that was stolen from the murder scene. She just had a laptop — any laptop.
If you tune into any mainstream media coverage of the Williams case, you won&#8217;t hear any of the details I just outlined — all of which are undisputed, and come directly from the Supreme Court of Missouri. You won&#8217;t hear news anchors recount all of the ways in which it&#8217;s clear that Marcellus Williams is extremely guilty of murder. Instead, you&#8217;ll find emotional segments like this one, which just aired on CNN:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="001 Marcellus Williams" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/vzpdwJaT7vE?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Putting aside the melodrama for a moment — If we&#8217;re being honest, that segment is a little surprising. It&#8217;s your last meal, and you can request anything you want — and you choose tater tots instead of curly fries? Unfortunately, the rest of the CNN segment doesn&#8217;t explain this questionable decision, as confusing as it obviously is. Instead, the anchor focuses on reinforcing the current BLM narrative that Marcellus Williams&#8217; execution was unjust. To that end, she talks about how &#8220;prosecutors&#8221; and &#8220;the victim&#8217;s family&#8221; didn&#8217;t want to see Williams killed. She implies he might even be innocent. And she barely even mentions the woman who was brutally stabbed 43 times in her own kitchen, or the mountain of damning evidence in the case.
Let&#8217;s take both of those claims in turn. First of all, the &#8220;prosecutor&#8221; that the CNN anchor is referring to is a &#8220;restorative justice&#8221; activist named Wesley Bell. Bell was not the original prosecutor on the case, which was tried more than 20 years ago. He parachuted in at the last moment, in defiance of the state&#8217;s attorney general, to try to delay Williams&#8217; execution. Earlier this year, Bell claimed in court filings that DNA evidence might exonerate Williams.
Specifically, there was supposedly unknown DNA on the murder weapon. 
But that claim fell apart in recent weeks. According to the Missouri judicial branch, attorneys, “received a report indicating the DNA on the murder weapon belonged to an assistant prosecuting attorney and an investigator who had handled the murder weapon without gloves prior to trial.&#8221; So there was no unknown DNA on the murder weapon after all.
<h4><a href="https://www.amiracist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Am I Racist? Is In Theaters NOW — Get Your Tickets Here!</a></h4>
This month, a court in Missouri <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1H_8gEp_1LgUzEsUAEEXg1643UJw88rja/view" target="_blank" rel="noopener">looked into</a> what exactly happened with the handling of this murder weapon. They determined that, back in 2001, it was normal practice for detectives in St. Louis to handle evidence, without wearing gloves, after the crime lab had processed the item and determined there was no useful DNA or fingerprint evidence on it. And in this case, because the killer wore gloves, there was no usable evidence on the knife. So the detective and the prosecutor repeatedly handled the knife, as part of trial preparation. Nothing about that, in any way, suggests that the knife was &#8220;tampered with,&#8221; or that there might have been another killer. So the court upheld the conviction.
As the state attorney general put it: 
<blockquote>One of the defense’s own experts previously testified he could not rule out the possibility that Williams’s DNA was also on the knife. He could only testify to the fact that enough actors had handled the knife throughout the legal process that others’ DNA was present.</blockquote>
That attorney general emphasized that the other available evidence was very clear: 
<blockquote>The victim’s personal items were found in Williams’s car after the murder. A witness testified that Williams had sold the victim’s laptop to him. Williams confessed to his girlfriend and an inmate in the St. Louis City Jail, and William’s girlfriend saw him dispose of the bloody clothes worn during the murder.</blockquote>
This is overwhelming evidence, obviously. And if you read between the lines, even this new prosecutor concedes that. In recent court filings — and in his interview with CNN — the prosecutor didn&#8217;t even claim that Williams was necessarily innocent. Instead, he pointed to alleged defects in how the trial was conducted, including jury selection. Here&#8217;s part of the prosecutors&#8217; interview with CNN:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="002 Why The Speedy Execution" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/GbTyrNhfJpQ?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
&nbsp;
It&#8217;s an incredible moment. They&#8217;re both claiming that Marcellus Williams was executed too hastily — more than 25 years after he killed a woman in her own kitchen. That&#8217;s too fast, apparently. We just need another 25 years to really investigate this case, and see if we can find some new information. Maybe some new witnesses will turn up. Maybe we&#8217;ll find new surveillance footage. Who knows? Apparently the point is, even after you&#8217;re convicted, you get 50 more years to prove you&#8217;re really innocent. At least, that&#8217;s what you get if BLM and the corporate press think they can turn you into a martyr. If you&#8217;re a white guy on death row, then no one really cares. You’ll notice that the only condemned criminals anyone ever cries over are black. Plenty of white guys get put to death, too, but they never become a trendy cause for the media and activists. I wonder why?
The other argument that they&#8217;re using is that people connected to the victim supposedly don&#8217;t want this man to be executed. Again, this isn&#8217;t a claim that&#8217;s related to whether Williams killed someone or not. It&#8217;s an argument about what the family wants. But if you look closer into this claim, it falls apart as well. Here&#8217;s part of a letter written last month by Laura Friedman, who&#8217;s now married to the victim&#8217;s former husband:
<blockquote>After 26 years of competing court filings, secret commissions, TV news alerts and front-page headlines, my husband&#8217;s personal pain is once again the subject of public discussion and debate. &#8230; This is now the fifth time this family tragedy has been revisited, relitigated and reappeared in the press. We are exhausted and exasperated. &#8230; Whether the death penalty is deserved in a case like this is a matter for debate. Williams&#8217; guilt is not.</blockquote>
Notice what&#8217;s actually going on here. Laura Friedman emphatically says that Marcellus Williams is guilty. The media just ignores that part. She also says that she just wants this case to be over, so that the family can get some closure. They&#8217;re clearly tired of how activists have dragged this case out for more than 25 years. The media ignores that part, too. Instead, the story from the mainstream media is that the family and loved ones close to the victim supposedly don&#8217;t want the death penalty.
These are the lies that are underpinning the latest attempt by race hustlers to manufacture another George Floyd scenario. 
For example, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSqu9YNOEPM" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Henry Rogers</a>, a.k.a. Ibram X. Kendi, <a href="https://x.com/ibramxk/status/1838769254553837758" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a>:
<blockquote>Tonight, Missouri lynched Marcellus Williams. DNA evidence proved he was innocent. It didn’t matter. Because the United States is a serial killer of Black people.&#8221; For her part, Cori Bush — who just lost her primary to Wesley Bell — also <a href="https://x.com/RepCori/status/1838740528734638565" target="_blank" rel="noopener">called</a> Williams &#8220;innocent&#8221; and said his death was &#8220;depraved.</blockquote>
The NAACP had a similar <a href="https://x.com/NAACP/status/1838718578465378620" target="_blank" rel="noopener">message</a>:
<blockquote>Tonight, Missouri lynched another innocent Black man. Governor Parson had the responsibility to save this innocent life, and he didn’t. The NAACP was founded in 1909 in response to the barbaric lynching of Black people in America — we were founded exactly because of people like Governor Parson who perpetuate violence against innocent Black people.</blockquote>
There are a lot more statements like this, from every BLM activist and race hustler you&#8217;d expect. Mainstream media organizations are saying much the same thing. They&#8217;re claiming that there&#8217;s no difference between executing a man convicted of a brutal homicide — and who clearly did commit that brutal homicide — and lynching a random black person who&#8217;s done nothing wrong. If these people had any degree of intelligence or integrity whatsoever, they&#8217;d recognize how degrading that is to black people who haven&#8217;t committed any crimes. They&#8217;re being equated with a career felon who killed a woman for no reason.
The only lesson we can draw from this is that the NAACP, Henry Rogers, and corporate media don&#8217;t believe that black people should get the death penalty when they murder a white person. They probably don&#8217;t think any punishment is appropriate, frankly, based on how they&#8217;re lying about the death of Felicia Gayle. We are witnessing crass race hatred spilling out into the open.
We all know that, if Marcellus Williams were white, or if his victim had been black, then there wouldn&#8217;t be any outrage whatsoever. This is the clearest imaginable example of a manufactured racial narrative, and of course it&#8217;s happening in an election year.
And it&#8217;s riling up all the lunatics you&#8217;d expect. In one post that has hundreds of thousands of views on X, an activist <a href="https://x.com/mrgnbrmll/status/1838659426716410063" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a>: 
<blockquote>The murder of Marcellus Williams is connected to the murder of the people of Palestine and the people in Haiti and the people in Lebanon and the people in &#8230; Let your grief move you to see this as part of one state approved project.</blockquote>
Yes, Marcellus Williams is &#8220;connected&#8221; to the &#8220;people of Palestine&#8221; and the &#8220;people of Haiti and Lebanon.&#8221; As deranged as this post is, it does have a shred of honesty in it. The truth is that no one campaigning on behalf of Williams actually thinks he&#8217;s innocent. If a woman is brutally murdered and you confess to the crime to multiple people, giving them details that you wouldn’t have known unless you’d been there — and you are found with the victim’s property in your car — then you’re guilty. Period. It is basically impossible to even conceive of a scenario where all of that could happen and yet you’d still be innocent. That’s because Williams is guilty. He did it. He brutally butchered an innocent woman. He deserves to die for what he did. It’s that simple.

But none of the activists really care about the facts of his case, or even about Williams himself. These, after all, are not empathetic people. These are not people who value human life. Millions of human children have been killed by abortion in this country and these people not only don’t care about that, but celebrate it. They apparently feel infinitely more sympathy for a convicted murderer who stabbed a woman 40 times than they do for 60 million dead children combined. How could anyone’s heart be that twisted? How could their sympathies be so wildly, psychotically misdirected? Well, because they actually have no sympathy at all for anyone. It’s all a show. It’s an act.
This is about a much larger effort to undermine and ultimately destroy the rule of law in the United States. And this effort is being undertaken by people who care far more about Haiti and Lebanon than they care about this country. That&#8217;s why they&#8217;re trivializing the murder of this young white journalist in Missouri. It&#8217;s why they&#8217;re mocking her family and pretending her killer is innocent. Only the most dysfunctional hellholes on the planet have explicit, distinct standards of justice depending on the skin color of the assailant and the skin color of the victim. And after this surreal and delusional effort to absolve Marcellus Williams, it&#8217;s clear that we&#8217;re much closer to becoming one of those hellholes than we might like to admit.

TV host <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/mike-rowe">Mike Rowe</a> posed a <a href="https://x.com/mikeroweworks/status/1838959994110349384">question</a> to his X followers about whether Matt Walsh’s treatment of “White Fragility” author Robin DiAngelo was “fair” in his hit film, “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/am-i-racist">Am I Racist?</a>”
Rowe, 62, began by laying out some background. He recalled interviewing Walsh after the release of his 2022 documentary “What Is a Woman?” and noticing backlash from the people who were featured in the film.  
“When [‘What Is a Woman?’] was released, however, many of the people Matt interviewed were angry. They claimed that they had been deceived by the filmmakers, in much the same way Sacha Baron Cohen had duped the subjects in his Borat movies,” Rowe wrote, adding that Walsh is “strongly opposed to transgender surgeries on children, and highly critical of men competing in women’s sports,” but did not tell that to anyone he was interviewing.
Rowe relates how Walsh took a similar approach with “Am I Racist?” in his efforts to expose the grifters of the DEI industry. 
<a href="https://www.amiracist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.amiracist.com/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1726313279401000&amp;usg=AOvVaw115_qPFFEePDP86-Fvo-Vd">Am I Racist? Is In Theaters NOW — Get Your Tickets Here!</a>
“In this film, Matt assumes the identity of a privileged white man who is afraid he might be racist. On his journey to become a more enlightened citizen, he asks another group of experts to help guide him to a more enlightened state,” he wrote in the post. 
“As with ‘What is a Woman?’ Matt doesn’t argue with these experts. He just asks them questions, from the perspective of a guilt-ridden white man who wants to learn how he can be less racist. Well, the experts provide answers that are candid, instructive, and more often than not, hysterical. But once again, the experts are crying foul.”
He said DiAngelo was “especially incensed” and wrote in a letter to followers that she had been “contacted under false pretenses.”
“I realized later that I had been played,” she said in the letter, leading Rowe to wonder if she was correct.
“So, what do you think? Was she? Was Robin DeAngelo unfairly misled?” the “Dirty Jobs” star asked his X followers. “Was it wrong of Matt to pretend that his movie was an attempt to elevate DEI, rather than lampoon it?”
“Personally, I loved this movie for all sorts of reasons,” he added. “Mostly, because I know that I’m not a racist and I have no patience for anyone who claims that they know me better than I do. I also happen to think that ‘White Fragility’ is one of the most divisive, counter-productive, and patently stupid books ever published. But I’m not entirely unsympathetic to Robin’s position.”
Rowe next recalled people in the past using his image “in whatever fashion they wanted to. He said eventually, he became more savvy about how his name and likeness were used, but most people did not because “they really, really, really want to be on TV, or on the big screen, or whatever.”
“Point is, Robin DeAngelo signed a typical talent release, and now, she’s screwed,” he went on. “She can’t very well say she was taken ‘out of context,’ because she wasn’t. Her words and actions in the movie are hers, and she would look even more ridiculous if she said she didn’t mean to say and do precisely what she said and did when she knew the cameras were rolling. But the question remains – was it fair?”
Rowe’s followers came out in force to say that despite how bad it looked for DiAngelo, especially the bit about her paying $30 in reparations out of her own wallet to a black producer on the film, Walsh’s treatment of her was ultimately fair.
“So, if he was 100% upfront and honest about what he was doing, they wouldn’t have cooperated and been 100% honest with him and exposed and embarrassed themselves. That’s their argument. You should’ve been honest with me so I would’ve known to lie to you,” one commenter <a href="https://x.com/BBD100/status/1838993378547306667">wrote</a>.
“Well said, and it was totally fair of Matt to do what he did. Robin has responsibility for herself and her actions. If she didn&#8217;t want to be shown for what she is, then she shouldn&#8217;t have taken the money and done the interview.  She should&#8217;ve read up on due diligence,” another <a href="https://x.com/MrBatman777/status/1838966369762623646">agreed</a>.
“They said and did what they meant to, why do they run and hide from it or scream foul later? Are they embarrassed for acting as they believe? Do they actually believe it at all? These humans are selling BS for fame and profit and it embarrasses them would be my guess,” a third <a href="https://x.com/leonard_per/status/1838968941877555394">said</a>.
“It was fair. She signed the contract,” another commenter <a href="https://x.com/DawnsEcho/status/1838984413700309378">echoed</a>. “In both movies. It’s no one’s fault but their own that they come off looking ridiculous. It’s because they are ridiculous. They got to see how ridiculous they are, and they got embarrassed and mad.”
“Am I Racist?” is still in the top ten at the box office and has become one of the best-performing documentaries in the last decade. Tickets are available at <a href="http://amiracist.com">amiracist.com</a>.

One basic rule of survival is that, when a clearly deranged individual is ranting and raving in public, you shouldn&#8217;t engage with them. Generally speaking, there&#8217;s no benefit to doing so. You can&#8217;t persuade them not to be delusional, as much as you might like to. You can only make things worse.
Unfortunately, every now and then, despite your best efforts, sometimes this strategy doesn&#8217;t work out. We&#8217;ve all been there. You&#8217;re trying to mind your own business, and then out of nowhere, you catch a stranger&#8217;s eye. And then they might start talking about you. They might verbalize their unhinged delusions about who you are, or what you do for a living. And in those cases, sometimes, it can be impossible to resist saying a word or two in response. You know it won&#8217;t help anything, you know you probably shouldn&#8217;t do it, but it&#8217;s human nature to respond when someone — even a lunatic — is talking about you.
Last night I found myself in a situation just like this, when the &#8220;Kamala HQ&#8221; account — the official account of the Kamala Harris campaign — posted a message in response to a segment from <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-1449-how-the-fbi-is-willing-to-risk-your-safety-to-get-kamala-elected-member-exclusive" target="_blank" rel="noopener">my show yesterday</a>. This is the same account that even CNN <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/09/14/politics/fact-check-harris-campaign-social-media/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reports</a> is guilty of &#8220;repeatedly deceiving&#8221; people with obviously false posts. It&#8217;s the same account that Tim Pool is <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/tim-pool-kamala-harris-defamation-lawsuit-west-virginia-project-2025-1955775" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suing</a> because they wildly misrepresented something he said on his show. They&#8217;re pathological, delusional liars in every sense. And last night, totally unprovoked, they came after me.
Here&#8217;s what <a href="https://x.com/KamalaHQ/status/1838745780657537431" target="_blank" rel="noopener">they wrote</a>, in response to my show yesterday: &#8220;Top Trump operative, echoing Project 2025: Not only should the Department of Education be abolished, but the entire public school system should be abolished.&#8221;
Before I play the clip that they embedded in that tweet, I have to say a few things. First of all, it&#8217;d be news to the Trump campaign that I&#8217;m one of their &#8220;operatives.&#8221; I don&#8217;t work for the Trump campaign. I don&#8217;t coordinate with the Trump campaign. During the primary I supported Ron DeSantis. So in no sense am I a Trump campaign &#8220;operative.&#8221; At the same time, I have to admit that this particular lie is a little flattering. If they’re going to falsely label me a &#8220;Trump operative,&#8221; I’m glad they’ve promoted me to a &#8220;top operative&#8221; instead of a regular one, at least. I&#8217;m not some rank-and-file Trump operative over here. I&#8217;m the cream of the crop, in the eyes of the Kamala Harris campaign. It’s nice to finally be getting some damned respect around here, I have to say.
In any event, here&#8217;s the footage they embedded in their tweet, to demonstrate that I&#8217;m a &#8220;top Trump operative&#8221; who is &#8220;echoing Project 2025.&#8221; I&#8217;m responding here to a clip from a recent Trump rally, where he says the education system is failing in this country. Watch:

Like everything else that this &#8220;Kamala HQ&#8221; account has uploaded in the past few weeks, this post backfired almost immediately. Pretty much every reply was along the lines of: &#8220;Yep, the public school system and the Department of Education are terrible and should be abolished.&#8221; The goal of the Kamala Harris campaign is to portray this as an inherently extreme position — as if the existence of the Department of Education is an inevitable fact of life in this country — but it&#8217;s not. For most of this country&#8217;s history, up until 1979, we haven&#8217;t had a Department of Education at all.
<h4><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-1450-kamala-hq-attacked-me-for-telling-the-truth-about-public-education-member-exclusive" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WATCH: The Matt Walsh Show</a></h4>
Actually, to be more precise, Andrew Johnson also <a href="https://www.politico.com/agenda/story/2015/09/department-of-education-history-000235/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">launched</a> a Department of Education back in 1867. It had just four employees — the commissioner and three clerks. And it had a very limited mandate. It was supposed to collect statistics on &#8220;the condition and progress of education in the United States&#8221; and then publish that information. But even with that limited mandate, politicians at the time thought the Department of Education had too much power. They didn&#8217;t see any reason for the department to exist at all. As Politico <a href="https://www.politico.com/agenda/story/2015/09/department-of-education-history-000235/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>, &#8220;Many in Congress &#8230; saw its existence as an unconstitutional power grab and worried that its data-gathering authority gave Washington a new and dangerous kind of leverage.&#8221;
Andrew Rogers, a Democrat from New Jersey, put it this way: &#8220;I am content .. to leave this matter of education where our fathers left it, where the history of our country left it, to the schools systems of the different towns, cities and states.&#8221;
Ultimately, the first Department of Education lasted just a year before Congress realized it was a horrible idea and abolished it. Instead of having a bloated and unnecessary federal bureaucracy spending tens of billions of dollars every year, education mostly remained a local concern from 1868 to 1979. And all told, we did pretty well as a country in that period. In fact, during that time frame, we went from horses to cars to planes to rocket ships flying to the moon. It was a period of human advancement never seen before. And we did it all without the Department of Education, if you can imagine.
Then, in 1979, after this period of uninterrupted prosperity and innovation, Jimmy Carter revived the federal Department of Education. And by that point, we didn&#8217;t have a lot of politicians in Washington anymore who wanted to limit their own power. Instead they wanted to expand it, at all costs. So the D.O.E. has stuck around, to disastrous results.
As the New York Sun <a href="https://www.discovery.org/education/2023/07/11/our-public-school-system-is-set-up-to-fail-and-its-succeeding/">reported last year</a>:
<blockquote>The recent report by the National Assessment of Educational Progress, sometimes referred to as the nation’s report card, is a devastating assessment of the condition of our nation’s schools. In short, there has been virtually no educational progress with our nation’s children in more than 30 years – and urban districts are the worst performers. &#8230; Virtually every major city shows declining proficiency for their students, even as school spending continues to increase.</blockquote>
Yes, you read that correctly. There has been virtually no educational progress in this country&#8217;s educational system in more than 30 years. The Department of Education has been around this entire time, and it hasn&#8217;t done anything to improve education. They&#8217;ve hired a bunch of LGBTQ overseers to police &#8220;misgendering&#8221; in kindergarten, but when it comes to education, it&#8217;s been a debacle.
Instead, in major school districts all over the country, corruption has flourished. Again from the Sun:
<blockquote>The report ranked the Detroit Public Schools as the worst performing of all 26 large city districts, with just 5 percent of their eighth-grade students rated proficient in reading and only 3 percent in math. What is surprising is the Detroit Public Schools Community District rated 99 percent of Detroit’s teachers as &#8216;highly effective&#8217; or &#8216;effective,&#8217; the two highest ratings given to teachers. An added conundrum is that Detroit public high schools received an &#8216;F&#8217; on student proficiency and yet received an &#8216;A&#8217; on graduation rates.</blockquote>
In other words, students are doing terribly — worse than they&#8217;ve done in decades. And yet the teachers are rating themselves highly. They&#8217;re graduating all of these students who can&#8217;t read, write, or do arithmetic. And despite all of this, <a href="https://www.bridgemi.com/talent-education/trump-wants-abolish-department-education-michigan-ready">billions of dollars</a> from the federal government flow into Michigan schools every year. The Department of Education isn&#8217;t just tolerating failure. It&#8217;s enabling it.
To be clear, the source for these claims isn&#8217;t Project 2025. It&#8217;s not me, either. The source for these claims is the Department of Education itself. The &#8220;National Assessment of Educational Progress,&#8221; or the nation&#8217;s report card, is both overseen and administered by the National Center for Education Statistics. And the National Center for Education Statistics is <a href="https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/about/">embedded within</a> the U.S. Department of Education. The Department of Education itself is saying that it&#8217;s doing a terrible job. They&#8217;re acknowledging that public schools are failing, too, which is why homeschooling is now more popular than ever.
How bad are things going in public schools, exactly? In 2023 The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/21/us/naep-test-results-education.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>: &#8220;The math and reading performance of 13-year-olds in the United States has hit the lowest level in decades.&#8221; Again, their source is the Department of Education and the exam from the National Report Card. And there are reasons to believe these numbers from the national report card because:
<blockquote>Scores on the exam do not result in any rewards or punishments for students, teachers or schools, making them especially useful for research purposes, since there are fewer incentives to cheat or teach to the test.</blockquote>
If there were punishments for underperforming schools, then we can assume that a lot of teachers would give their students the answers. But apparently they&#8217;re not clever enough to do that — at least not yet. So the corruption and the incompetence are laid bare.
Out of curiosity, I just pulled up the homepage for the National Report Card. The <a href="https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">very first thing </a>on the website is a chart entitled, &#8220;Student Performance Across Subjects.&#8221; It shows &#8220;Changes in average scores and scores at selected percentiles, by subject and grade.&#8221; Here&#8217;s what it looks like:
<div id="attachment_802433" style="width: 1034px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-802433" class="wp-image-802433 size-large" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/09/XrQboVG-Imgur-1024x515.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="515" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/09/XrQboVG-Imgur-1024x515.jpg 1024w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/09/XrQboVG-Imgur-300x151.jpg 300w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/09/XrQboVG-Imgur-768x386.jpg 768w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/09/XrQboVG-Imgur-1536x772.jpg 1536w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/09/XrQboVG-Imgur-2048x1030.jpg 2048w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" />NationalReportCard.gov</div>
As you can see, every single arrow except one is down — meaning there&#8217;s been a &#8220;Significant decrease compared to last assessment year,&#8221; according to the website. Average scores in math and reading are down for grades 4 through 8, in every percentile. The only exception is the 90th percentile in reading among 4th graders. That experienced &#8220;no significant difference&#8221; year-over-year. Not a single category improved.
<h4><a href="https://www.amiracist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Am I Racist? Is In Theaters NOW — Get Your Tickets Here!</a></h4>
I could go on and on about the various metrics that show our public school system, and the Department of Education, are both failing. Every single statistic like this is clear evidence that we need to scrap the system and start over. But the failures actually go even deeper than test scores and academic proficiency.
All the way back in 2004, the Department of Education released a comprehensive report <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/the-public-school-system-is-covering-up-a-massive-sex-abuse-scandal" target="_blank" rel="noopener">showing</a> that 10% of students in public schools nationwide, in grades K-12, were subjected to &#8220;sexual misconduct&#8221; by a school employee. That&#8217;s millions of children. It&#8217;s the kind of report you&#8217;d expect would lead to annual, if not monthly, follow-ups by the Department of Education. But as far as I can tell, they haven&#8217;t followed up at all with another comprehensive assessment. And as I discussed earlier this year, that&#8217;s not because sexual abuse in public schools has gone away. If anything, there are clear <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/the-public-school-system-is-covering-up-a-massive-sex-abuse-scandal" target="_blank" rel="noopener">indications</a> it&#8217;s become substantially more common — and that public schools are covering it up.
Put it all together, and it&#8217;s evident that the education system is catastrophically failing to do the single thing it is supposed to do, which is to equip each new generation with the knowledge and intellectual tools they need to be productive and happy human beings. The failure of the education system should be considered a major scandal — perhaps the greatest scandal facing the country today. The problem is that the Democrats don’t consider failure to be failure. They want the education system to churn out shallow, obedient serfs. And it is indeed succeeding in doing that.
All that said, I&#8217;d be remiss if I didn&#8217;t acknowledge that one thing the Kamala HQ account tweeted out is, in fact, accurate. It&#8217;s true that I am, indeed, a proponent of Project 2025. They got me there.

I shouldn&#8217;t just give out the URL like that, I know. But as a top Trump operative, as opposed to a middle-manager, I have declassification authority.

Once again, the website is <a href="http://project2025.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">project2025.com</a>. Send it to all your friends. But whatever you do, don&#8217;t send it to the Kamala HQ account. We don&#8217;t want them to see what we&#8217;re really up to, over here in the Trump campaign. It&#8217;d be really, really bad if they tweeted out that link and exposed what we Trump operatives are doing.

But everyone else — everyone on our side who wants access to our secret blueprint — can go over to that URL anytime they want. Read it. Internalize it. 
And then, when the Department of Education is abolished and children can once again read, write, and do arithmetic in this country, we must never speak about our sinister Project 2025 plan ever again.

Kamala HQ Attacked Me For Telling The Truth About Public Education

Department of Education

Education

Public Schools

Social Media

The rapid response team for Vice President Kamala Harris&#8217; presidential campaign stepped in it again on Tuesday — just over a week after even CNN was forced to slap @KamalaHQ with a brutal fact-check — when the account identified The Daily Wire&#8217;s Matt Walsh as a &#8220;top Trump operative.&#8221;
Walsh may be many things — a best-selling children&#8217;s author, a renowned DEI expert, and a documentarian to name a few — but a Trump operative he is not. But still, KamalaHQ ran with a post &#8220;outing him&#8221; as such in addition to tying him to The Heritage Foundation&#8217;s Project 2025 — which they have repeatedly and dishonestly claimed is Trump&#8217;s second-term agenda.
&#8220;Top Trump operative, echoing Project 2025: Not only should the Department of Education be abolished, but the entire public school system should be abolished,&#8221; the post captioned a video clip of Walsh from his show.

&#8220;It will be news to the Trump campaign that I&#8217;m one of their &#8220;operatives,&#8221; Walsh added in another post. &#8220;At least they’ve falsely labeled me a top operative, rather than just a regular operative. Finally getting some damned respect around here.&#8221;
