Today on the Matt Wall Show, Democrats double down on their abortion messaging heading into
00:00:04.460
the midterms. This week, they've offered pro-abortion propaganda that ranges from
00:00:07.960
unintentionally hilarious to incredibly horrific. Also, Elon Musk begins to call the herd over at
00:00:13.380
Twitter. Early voting is already causing confusion and problems. A country star gets in trouble for
00:00:17.920
publicly associating with Ron DeSantis. And the media worries that the World Series might be
00:00:22.480
racist because there aren't enough U.S.-born black players. An oddly specific complaint. We'll talk
00:00:28.380
about all of that and more today on the Matt Wall Show. When cybercriminals comb through the dark
00:00:41.620
web for stolen items, they're looking for your PII, your personal identifiable information. PII
00:00:48.240
includes your full name, your social security number, your driver's license, bank account numbers,
00:00:53.740
passport number, phone number, email address. This is all the things they're looking for. And
00:00:57.840
oftentimes they're able to find. That's why it's so important to understand how cybercrime and
00:01:01.580
identity theft are affecting our lives every day. Your personal information gets exposed so often
00:01:05.900
that it's dangerously easy for cybercriminals to steal your identity. Protecting your identity can

00:01:51.300
the Democrats will, of course, respond by refusing to look inward or engage in anything like
00:01:56.300
introspection. They will lament the death of democracy. They'll accuse Republicans of cheating,
00:02:02.480
even after spending years claiming that it's an attack on democracy to accuse your opponent of cheating.
00:02:06.940
They will blame the American people. They'll blame racism, homophobia, transphobia, arachnophobia,
00:02:13.200
all the phobias. They'll say and do many things, but one thing they will not do is spend any time
00:02:18.880
trying to actually figure out why they lost and lost so badly. If they did, they would see that one
00:02:24.300
of their most catastrophic mistakes was to make abortion a central part of their campaign message.
00:02:29.600
They assumed that voters would be motivated, you know, by the overturning of Roe. They assumed
00:02:34.720
Americans would flock to the polls to defend the right to kill babies. They assumed that most
00:02:39.360
Americans are as avidly supportive of baby murder as they are, and they assumed wrongly. But this is
00:02:46.100
the horse they rode in on, and they're going to take it all the way to the finish line regardless.
00:02:50.200
In the final days before the election, every Democratic apparatus is leaning into the pro-abortion
00:02:55.200
message in ways that range from unintentionally hilarious to unbelievably heinous. So we'll kind of
00:03:02.080
ease into this, and we'll start with the hilarious first. So over on NBC, the medical drama New
00:03:07.760
Amsterdam, which is a show that apparently exists, aired an episode this week revolving around
00:03:13.980
abortion and the overturning of Roe. The Daily Wire reports, quote,
00:03:20.160
the recent episode, Maybe Tomorrow, explores a world with restricted access to abortion.
00:03:25.820
Showrunners spoke with TV Line about their motivations and aims for the episode,
00:03:29.240
which had leftist fans applauding and conservatives swearing that they're done with the series
00:03:33.300
forever. The episode begins with a montage showing hospital staff realizing Roe v. Wade had
00:03:38.080
been overturned, which was presented as a catastrophic event. Each character then dealt with the aftermath
00:03:43.500
in their own way. Dr. Lauren Bloom, played by Janet Montgomery, admits that she had an abortion in
00:03:49.240
the past, which was not a big deal, quote unquote. One doctor punched a protester outside the hospital
00:03:53.980
and New Amsterdam staffers panic because he's gay and they're concerned about the court's outlawing
00:03:59.400
same-sex marriage. At various points in the episode, Max inquires about opening an abortion
00:04:03.460
clinic on a military base and setting up a floating clinic to circumvent new laws. Quote,
00:04:08.440
these kinds of issues, both in our country and the healthcare industry, is why I wrote the show to
00:04:12.480
begin with. It's why I created New Amsterdam, according to David Schollner, the showrunner,
00:04:16.780
which she said to TV Line in an interview. As depressing and horrifying as it was,
00:04:21.000
the show was made to tackle these issues. And so, we all put in everything we had into this episode.
00:04:27.600
Yes, they put everything they had into it. Unfortunately, that means that they didn't put
00:04:32.220
any, you know, intelligence or subtlety or wit into it because they didn't have any
00:04:36.800
to begin with, which explains the opening scene as mentioned in the Daily Wire article.
00:04:42.380
Okay, it's the montage opening scene. And it is honestly one of the greatest scenes of
00:04:49.840
unintentional comedy to ever air on television. I mean, the whole thing plays like a parody.
00:04:56.440
And when I first saw this, I had to watch it all the way through and I'm waiting for the punchline
00:05:01.600
and it never came because this is meant to be taken seriously. And you really just have to see
00:05:07.120
it to appreciate it. So, let's watch a little bit of this together.
00:05:19.940
Okay, so he's reading the news about Roe v. Wade being overturned.
00:05:25.400
He's tearful. And he's looking at his daughter.
00:05:29.440
That young child will never be able to kill a child. And he's that, that, he's distraught
00:05:41.420
And he drops the phone. He can't even look at the phone. He drops into disgust.
00:05:47.100
And then we've got the people standing around the street and they're just, they're
00:05:49.920
dumbfounded because Roe v. Wade was overturned. Shell-shocked. And she drops, she drops the cup.
00:05:54.640
They do the dramatic cup drop, which has been a cliche since like 1995, by the way.
00:06:02.240
And look at all these people walking down the street, every single one of them.
00:06:05.400
They can't believe it. They can't believe they can't kill babies anymore.
00:06:12.180
Even though this is New York and they can still kill babies. So,
00:06:15.760
maybe someone could tell them that, make them feel better.
00:06:29.360
His father is in tears because he's thinking about, you know, that his daughter will never
00:06:34.180
be able to kill his grandchildren. And that actually makes him cry.
00:06:37.680
So, the whole scene went on for like two minutes.
00:06:43.440
There was a time when something so heavy-handed and on the nose and corny and cliche-ridden,
00:06:53.020
again, you actually get the scene where the person is holding a cup of coffee and dramatically
00:06:57.780
drops it. There was a time when something like that, that could only exist in the Christian
00:07:02.940
movie space. Okay? Though coming from the opposite ideological perspective. But modern
00:07:08.140
Hollywood has now adopted the same approach as the Christian film industry, except without the
00:07:12.380
benefit of at least being right about the issues. If you want to know why Democrats are about to
00:07:17.420
lose, it's because they think that what you just watched is an effective piece of propaganda.
00:07:24.260
When it comes to politics, there is nothing worse than being unintentionally funny. In a political
00:07:29.660
setting, you never want to be unintentionally funny. Look at Joe Biden. He's unintentionally
00:07:35.860
funny all the time. Because then you've made yourself into a joke. But that's the Democratic
00:07:41.220
specialty at this point. And yet, it was not all fun and games. Also this week, NPR did its own bit
00:07:47.360
of pro-abortion propagandizing while taking a decidedly different approach. Again, this is from
00:07:53.640
The Daily Wire. It says, NPR's Michigan Morning Edition aired an abortion on air Thursday morning,
00:08:00.700
complete with the sound of the 11-week-old pre-born child being vacuumed from the womb.
00:08:05.560
Reporter Katie Wells narrated the account of the unnamed woman undergoing the abortion
00:08:09.400
at Northland Family Planning in the Detroit area. Quote, abortion clinics are almost always closed to
00:08:14.620
the press. But a group of Michigan clinics generously allowed us to embed with them because abortion
00:08:19.300
rights are on the ballot in Michigan this November. But for the doctors, staff, and patients we met
00:08:24.080
there, none of this was about politics, Wells wrote in October during her investigation. For the patients
00:08:29.080
who allowed us into their lives and their procedures, it's about whether they can escape an abusive
00:08:33.620
partner or support the kids they already have or finish school or keep their jobs. We're going to take you
00:08:39.020
inside the clinic, she added. For nine days ahead of the midterm elections, Wells shared stories from
00:08:43.880
her investigation in a lengthy article. One account spoke of a woman named Melissa from Ohio who came to
00:08:49.280
Michigan for an abortion. Ohio recently enacted a ban on most abortions after six weeks of pregnancy.
00:08:53.860
Quote, I would be struggling for a very long time, Melissa said. I would have to drop out of school and
00:08:57.520
I would have to find a different job because I would need more daycare. She had to go through with an
00:09:01.500
abortion at 14 weeks of pregnancy. Okay, so they played the actual audio of an abortion. And I have that
00:09:10.840
clip. I'm not going to play the whole thing because you have to decide for yourself if you want to
00:09:16.900
actually listen to it. But instead, we'll play you the lead up. Okay, right, right up to the moment
00:09:23.800
when they turn the abortion machine on. So I'll play that much at least. And here it is. Listen.
00:09:31.340
This patient is not one of the patients you heard before. She's asked that we not use her name.
00:09:36.100
She's from Michigan. She already has one kid. She's having her abortion at about 11 weeks.
00:09:41.580
Nearly all abortions in Michigan are before 13 weeks. And like many patients at Northland,
00:09:48.000
she said I could record her procedure. We're going to hear some of that now.
00:09:51.920
So I'm just going to get you set up on the table and we're going to do that sedation medicine.
00:09:56.540
Okay. I'm going to pull this out under your legs.
00:09:59.340
Most patients are partially awake during the procedures. They get IV medication for pain and
00:10:04.100
anxiety. The lights are dimmed. There's soothing music. It actually feels a lot like a childbirth.
00:10:09.400
The medical gown, your bare legs and stirrups. And a person next to you saying,
00:10:14.540
you can do this. Please don't hang out. I just keep breathing.
00:10:19.700
That's Brandy. She's one of the staffers. Her job is to monitor vital signs,
00:10:24.940
but it is also to hold the patient's hand and talk her through this.
00:10:29.000
Whether it's a birth or an abortion, it is often women guiding other women.
00:10:34.780
I'm going to hear this machine turn on now. Okay, it makes a loud noise.
00:10:38.720
Well, that machine is the vacuum that is used to suck the baby out of the womb,
00:10:48.320
ripping him apart in the process. The sound of the vacuum is eerie for the obvious reasons that
00:10:55.880
it's being used to murder a child. And also because without that sound, the whole thing would sound
00:11:02.560
very similar to a childbirth. The abortionist urging her on, encouraging her, saying, keep breathing,
00:11:10.300
as she says throughout the, quote, procedure. At the end, if you listen all the way to the end,
00:11:14.920
you can hear people in the room laughing and smiling and saying, you did great.
00:11:20.040
This is the point that NPR wants us to take away. It's why they recorded and aired it in the first
00:11:24.280
place. They're saying, see, abortion isn't scary. It's just like childbirth. Except that it's the
00:11:29.500
opposite of childbirth. It is like a satanic parody of childbirth. To treat the murder of a child as
00:11:37.300
though it is the birth of a child, that doesn't make the murder better or more palatable. If
00:11:42.640
anything, it makes it worse. If it's possible for it to be worse than it already is, then that would be
00:11:48.180
the effect here. This should really tell you what you need to know. The NBC and NPR propaganda
00:11:53.900
given to us in the same week also gives us a look at the two ends of the abortion propaganda
00:12:02.260
spectrum. There's abortion as portrayed in this fictionalized universe on NBC, and then there's
00:12:09.680
abortion as it is in reality, which NPR let us listen to. The former, the fictionalized version,
00:12:16.300
is inevitably ridiculous. And the latter, no matter what they do or how they try to dress it up,
00:12:23.680
it is inevitably horrific and gut-wrenching, which is why they rarely do this. They rarely
00:12:30.200
give you a look inside when it's actually happening. And I can tell you that I guarantee NPR is already
00:12:35.820
regretting their decision here. We're supposed to hear the sounds of a woman having her baby killed
00:12:42.800
and think, hey, that's not so bad. But instead, we're viscerally repulsed and horrified.
00:12:49.800
Because there is no appealing or credible way to present this. Abortion is what it is in the end.
00:12:58.260
And what it is, is the direct and intentional murder of innocent human life. Nothing will ever make that
00:13:05.300
okay. And the Democrats, I think, will pay the price, as they should, politically, for pinning their
00:13:12.440
electoral hopes on it. Now let's get to our five headlines.
00:13:22.300

00:14:31.860
From the Daily Wire, we'll mention this right off the top. It says,
00:14:36.760
new Twitter CEO Elon Musk informed employees Thursday evening to not come into the office
00:14:41.680
tomorrow as the company was laying off a substantial portion of its workforce.
00:14:46.080
The news comes after Bloomberg reported earlier this week that Musk was cutting 3,700 of the
00:14:51.400
company's 7,500 employees on Friday. So it's cutting about half of them. Musk is also reportedly
00:14:57.420
canceling a work from anywhere policy and is going to force employees to come into the office
00:15:02.720
to work. What a tyrant. They got to come into the office with the foosball and yoga and meditation
00:15:10.940
and all the rest of it. An email from the company sent to all employees stated,
00:15:15.740
in an effort to place Twitter on a healthy path, we will go through the difficult process
00:15:19.380
of reducing our global workforce on Friday. We recognize that this will impact a number of
00:15:24.320
individuals who have made valuable contributions to Twitter, but this action is unfortunately
00:15:28.240
necessary to ensure the company's success moving forward. Given the nature of our distributed workforce
00:15:32.840
and our desire to inform impacted individuals as quickly as possible, communications for this
00:15:36.900
process will take place via email, the message said. So they're going to find out whether they
00:15:44.240
still have jobs, or in fact, they're finding out right now, I suppose, whether they still have jobs
00:15:48.420
via email. The email said that everyone will receive an email about their future at the company,
00:15:55.080
regardless of whether they're being laid off or not. The email said, to help ensure the safety of
00:16:00.280
each employee, as well as the Twitter systems and customer data, our offices will be temporarily
00:16:03.740
closed, and all badge access will be suspended. If you're in an office or on your way to an office,
00:16:08.260
please return home. We acknowledge this is an incredibly challenging experience to go through,
00:16:12.160
whether or not you're impacted. Thank you for continuing to adhere to Twitter policies,
00:16:17.340
so on and so forth. So they said everyone's going to find out via email, and if you're fired,
00:16:24.740
then your email is going to come to your personal email address, and if you're not, then the email
00:16:28.480
will go to your company email address, and that's how they're all going to find out.
00:16:31.100
It is a tough thing, and I'm worried that Twitter won't be able to function without 6,000 people in
00:16:43.580
the building meditating and doing yoga and playing foosball. I'm concerned about the impact that that
00:16:48.500
will have, but it is tough. I mean, mass layoffs, not something you want to see usually, but Twitter
00:16:56.660
brought this on itself. This is its own doing, and it has to happen now. Elon Musk today, he tweeted
00:17:03.720
this morning. He said, Twitter has had a massive drop in revenue due to activist groups pressuring
00:17:09.500
advertisers, even though nothing has changed with content moderation, and we did everything we could
00:17:14.540
to appease the activists. Extremely messed up. They're trying to destroy free speech in America.
00:17:20.420
Well, see, this is exactly the problem, though. So Elon Musk says, well, we did everything we could
00:17:23.900
try to appease the activists, and it didn't matter. We still lost revenue. This is why Twitter's in the
00:17:30.180
spot that it's in to begin with. This is why they have to make all these cuts. It's because they were
00:17:34.180
appeasing activists. Not just appeasing them, but they have a lot of left-wing activists on staff
00:17:39.240
who are much more concerned about left-wing activism than they are about doing their jobs,
00:17:44.220
and certainly much more concerned about that than they are about providing a forum for free speech
00:17:50.060
and all of that. And that's why it concerns me. Like I said yesterday, you got to give Elon Musk
00:17:58.760
time. I mean, I imagine it's not an easy thing to take over a multi-billion dollar company and try to
00:18:04.480
right the ship. It's not something I've ever done or I think I'd be able to do. So you got to give
00:18:08.300
them some time. But you hear things like, well, we tried to appease the activists. Well, that's why you
00:18:13.320
don't appease them. Right. That's exactly correct. You try to appease the activists and it didn't
00:18:18.960
matter. That's why you don't appease them. That's why you ignore them. There's no good that can come
00:18:25.320
of appeasing the activists. And why is that? Because they can't be appeased. Well, two reasons. Number
00:18:29.440
one, their goals are the opposite of your goals. And so to appease them means that you're compromising
00:18:38.360
on your own goals for what is now your company. But then you also can't appease them. Anything less
00:18:45.700
than anything less than full capitulation on your part will not appease them. And even if they get
00:18:52.000
full capitulation, they're still not appeased. You could crawl on the ground groveling and sobbing
00:18:58.660
and begging for their approval and their forgiveness, and that will still not appease them.
00:19:03.420
If all you do is try to compromise and meet them in the middle, which is kind of what Elon Musk seems
00:19:10.320
like right now is trying to do, by having these Twitter content moderation boards and bringing
00:19:16.460
people in, activists in, and having conversations, you sort of try to find a middle ground and meet
00:19:20.900
them in the middle and talk to them like they're normal, reasonable people. But they're not. That's
00:19:25.540
the problem. That's why there's no point in even talking to them. Hopefully he comes to realize
00:19:31.620
that. Let's get into some election and politics news. We've got kind of a grab bag here. So we'll
00:19:37.320
start with this from the Daily Wire. It says, Tennessee election officials said Wednesday that
00:19:42.020
more than 200 voters cast ballots that have been cast in the wrong races since early voting began in
00:19:47.740
Nashville. Jeff Roberts, the administrator of the Davidson County Election Office, told the Associated
00:19:52.120
Press that 190 voters cast ballots in the wrong congressional races, 16 cast votes in incorrect state Senate
00:19:59.300
race, and six cast votes in a wrong state House race. The Associated Press notified Robert's office
00:20:05.420
on Tuesday that voters were receiving information contradicting which race they could vote in. The
00:20:10.840
fix has been put in place, Robert said, adding that the officials sent corrections to the Secretary of
00:20:14.600
State's office on Wednesday and that early voters would receive the proper ballots until Election Day.
00:20:19.160
Now, this is just a small preview. This is a small microcosm of the problems that we're going to see
00:20:28.380
all across the country. And it's why if you're serious about election integrity, if you're serious about
00:20:34.220
preserving our democracy, you wouldn't have early voting or mail-in voting, none of that. With a few
00:20:42.620
exceptions, active duty military personnel, you make an exception there. That might be like the only
00:20:46.860
exception that I would make. Anything beyond that, you vote in person on Election Day, and that's it. In person
00:20:57.540
on Election Day, and also the votes have to be counted on the same day. This is what nearly every other
00:21:04.380
country with a democratic system is able to figure out how to do, and yet we can't, somehow we can't figure
00:21:09.840
it out. So we give multiple weeks or months to vote, and then multiple days to count the votes.
00:21:18.300
There's a whole lot that can go wrong, or maybe from the left's perspective, go right during that
00:21:24.300
process. And there's just no excuse for it. There's no reason. If democracy is really this sacred thing
00:21:33.940
that we must preserve, then not only would we do everything we can to ensure its integrity, which starts
00:21:40.800
by you only vote on one day in person, but also we would have no problem requiring the people who want to
00:21:46.760
take part in this sacred right to take time out of their day. It's only one day. It's like one day every two
00:21:54.180
years, right? It's like one day every two years, this is the day, and plan ahead. Okay, I know how
00:22:01.380
difficult it can be to get some, you know, when you've got a job and you have kids, but you've got
00:22:05.840
two years notice. Plan ahead. Get there on Election Day. I just don't believe that there are people
00:22:13.960
who would, again, with a few exceptions, active in the military, but putting those exceptions aside,
00:22:19.740
I don't believe that there are people who would really, really, really want to vote and participate
00:22:25.860
in our democracy, and yet even with two years notice, knowing the exact day when the vote's
00:22:31.320
going to happen, cannot possibly figure out a way to carve out, you know, 30 minutes or an hour or
00:22:36.040
whatever, however much time on that day. If it's important to you, you'll figure out how to do it.
00:22:43.920
But I can't because I got this. Okay, well, then it's not that important to you, I guess.
00:22:46.680
You know, if you've got to use a day off of work to do it, then use the day off. And if you don't,
00:22:52.920
you know, you don't want to use the day off, then that's fine, too. You don't have to. Not everybody
00:22:57.000
has to vote. I actually, as you know, I'm not one of these people that says it's that we have a
00:23:02.180
responsibility to vote. I don't think you have a responsibility to vote. I think if you want to
00:23:07.920
vote and you're informed and you know what you're doing and you're an active participant in society,
00:23:14.420
you're a constructive participant in society and you're informed and all that and you really want
00:23:18.520
to vote, then yes, you should. But if it's not that important to you, you're not really paying
00:23:22.960
attention, you don't feel like taking the time off of work, you don't feel like getting the
00:23:26.260
babysitter, whatever, then just don't. This is what we do if we actually cared about protecting
00:23:34.460
democracy, but we don't. Moving into the cringe category, the Fetterman campaign just put out an ad,
00:23:42.480
and this is just like the NBC thing. This is, this is actually real. This is not some kind of deep
00:24:09.740
I'm running for the U.S. Senate, kid. I need all the help I can get.
00:24:15.740
Where's your suit and your flag pin and your hair?
00:25:02.740
what's a jag off um i'll tell you when you're older
00:25:09.440
okay so that's obviously supposed to be a play on the the mean joe green coca-cola ad from the
00:25:15.820
70s or 80s whenever that was uh it's just like that ad except that ad did not cause a potentially
00:25:21.940
fatal case of cringe like this one does i think i'm brain damaged now after watching that and the
00:25:26.420
thing is but i'm watching that and this is this is circulating a lot on twitter this morning so i
00:25:30.420
saw it um and people are giving fetterman a hard time but actually when i watch it yeah it's
00:25:35.620
extremely cringy but i was going to say that that in a certain way i'm impressed by it because he
00:25:42.500
you know he he's he's stringing together sentences he appears to be basically coherent um and so i'm
00:25:50.620
actually impressed by that but then as it was playing i was informed that in fact this is an
00:25:55.540
ad that's now been picked up and circulating it's from 2016 so i can't so i can't even give him
00:26:00.440
credit for that unfortunately uh that that was that was this is 2016 that was fetterman at his peak
00:26:05.640
that was peak fetterman what you just saw there and you know what the sad part is fetterman very well
00:26:13.460
might still win okay that was peak fetterman from six years ago now oz is only ahead in the polls by
00:26:23.100
a point or two and as you know the polls are fake no one cares about the polls but still i'm not
00:26:28.120
actually confident that oz wins um for a couple of reasons one is the polls but also you know early
00:26:35.540
voting i think even before the debate happened there had been i don't know half a million votes cast
00:26:40.880
already in the race so this is this is and this is one of the reasons why uh they decided to wait
00:26:46.620
to do the debate they knew they had to do the one debate they couldn't dodge it and they knew it was
00:26:50.300
going to be a disaster and so they waited until hundreds of thousands of votes were already were
00:26:54.840
already cast and then they did and then they did the uh the debate um but then also you know oz is just
00:27:02.620
not an impressive candidate this is this is one of the things that's so frustrating about the
00:27:08.000
pennsylvania race is that you're running against a vegetable a brain dead guy and almost any
00:27:15.040
republican you could have put almost anyone against him so why not nominate a real conservative
00:27:19.840
if you're worried about i don't know if a real conservative can win in pennsylvania which i don't
00:27:23.780
think is true but certainly they they could against this guy and instead the republican voters in
00:27:32.380
pennsylvania selected the one republican who might actually still lose and you can blame you know
00:27:40.260
you could blame the voters of republican voters in in pennsylvania if that happens you could also blame
00:27:44.420
the people on the right who endorsed oz in the primaries to include president trump
00:27:49.660
all right while we're on the subject of cringe kamala harris was on the campaign trail as well
00:27:56.020
raving about venn diagrams again watch and what we are also seeing is that if you look at you know i
00:28:07.400
like venn diagrams okay so if you look i do and um if you look at the intersection on some of these
00:28:15.960
issues it's pretty profound and very clear she actually really does like uh venn diagrams this is a
00:28:23.820
thing with her she has this obsession with venn diagram it's the it's one of the strangest
00:28:28.260
political quirks i've ever seen so here's a i don't know who put this together but someone someone
00:28:34.140
took the time she's been talking about venn diagrams for years obsessing over them uh so just watch
00:28:41.920
remember venn diagrams those three circles right and then let's just see where they overlap you will
00:28:48.340
not be surprised because i have constructed a venn diagram on this remember those three circles how
00:28:53.260
they overlap i love venn diagrams so i just do whenever you're dealing with conflict pull out
00:28:59.980
a venn diagram right and so you know the three circles and so i so i asked my team right there
00:29:06.600
he sees the venn diagram of it all he sees that there are those circles and maybe people seem that
00:29:13.880
they're a little different they live in different parts of the country there may be different age or
00:29:16.860
different race but that area in the middle that overlap and i asked my team to do a venn diagram of
00:29:22.280
where these attacks are happening so voting rights women's reproductive rights lgbtq rights
00:29:28.760
and of course there was a huge intersection you know i asked my team to do a venn diagram for me of
00:29:35.660
where we are seeing attacks and who are the attacks against and the similarity and when you look at a
00:29:42.380
diagram of the just a venn diagram in that regard it tells a real tale this is the most bizarre fetish
00:29:51.300
i've ever heard of what does it even mean that you love venn diagrams that's like saying you love a
00:29:56.260
bar graph you know it doesn't depend on what the bar graph shows i love a chart charts are great
00:30:02.420
well this chart is showing your approval ranking tanking madam vice president oh but it's a chart
00:30:07.920
though isn't it neat imagine being on kamala harris's staff every day she demands that you make a venn diagram
00:30:15.120
she doesn't tell you like what she wants the venn diagram to say she just wants a venn diagram
00:30:20.260
hey you make my daily venn diagram of what what do you what do you mean what am i what am i putting
00:30:25.440
it just just just give me a venn diagram it's very strange uh one more political ad that i want to show
00:30:31.080
you this one has garnered outrage on the left and it's running in georgia isaac hayes the third who
00:30:36.220
i'm pretty sure is the son of isaac hayes the singer posted it with this caption he says this is a real
00:30:41.060
commercial running in georgia racists co-opting racism that's a new one make sure you get out and
00:30:46.980
vote georgia and here it is when did racism against white people become okay joe biden put white people
00:30:55.460
last in line for covid relief funds kamala harris said disaster aid should go to non-white citizens
00:31:00.800
first liberal politicians block access to medicine based on skin color progressive corporations airlines
00:31:07.660
universities all openly discriminate against white americans racism is always wrong the left's
00:31:13.920
anti-white bigotry must stop we are all entitled to equal treatment under law america first legal paid
00:31:20.260
for this ad that is co-opting racism or being told by the left you're co-opting it uh no every single
00:31:29.980
thing you heard in that ad is true that is actually happening and it's about time they started putting
00:31:36.860
that in campaign ads republicans have been uh have been very hesitant to talk about you know they'll
00:31:43.920
they'll dance around it but to actually name it anti and anti-white bigotry yeah put that on a poster
00:31:52.060
like yeah that's that's something to march that's a that's a banner you can march under it's a real
00:31:58.600
thing it's actually happening systemic racism against white people um and and yeah and there are a lot
00:32:06.340
white people in this country a lot of white voters and there's nothing wrong with letting them know
00:32:12.380
that hey by the way if you vote for a democrat uh you are voting for bigotry and racism systemic racism
00:32:18.660
against yourself here are the policies they support against you systemically
00:32:25.540
but on the left they're they're terrified that republicans will actually start naming this
00:32:34.520
and galvanizing voters against it they're terrified of that they can't really tell you why you shouldn't
00:32:42.380
like what's what's wrong if there's if there's anti-white racism why are we not allowed to talk
00:32:46.620
about it it's it's racist to even it's racist to even talk about anti-white racism
00:32:51.260
which only proves again how much anti-white racism there is in this country
00:32:56.200
um all right i've had this in the queue for a few days this is uh from the daily wire it says the
00:33:03.000
crowd at a luke bryant concert erupted in cheers friday night when the country music singer brought
00:33:07.520
florida governor ron de santis on stage to promote the state's recovery efforts from hurricane ian bryant's
00:33:14.100
concert in jacksonville florida which was part of his raised up right tour had been postponed several
00:33:19.460
times in recent weeks due to the hurricane brian said we're going to have some fun and we're going
00:33:23.420
to raise some money tonight for the great state of florida ladies and gentlemen welcome to stage
00:33:27.340
governor ron de santis and then de santis came out and there were loud cheers and people were very
00:33:31.540
excited the governor said all you voters florida voters if you want to keep the state of florida
00:33:35.660
free we need you to vote on november 8th and so just a short appearance and uh and that was it
00:33:41.100
obviously uh once again the left is very upset that you know how dare this country singer bring
00:33:49.560
a republican governor on on board luke bryant put out a statement a few days later and this is what
00:33:55.040
a statement says it's not exactly an apology but the statement says i typically don't respond to
00:34:00.040
stuff when i'm getting run down on a social platform but here's the deal i understand governor
00:34:04.980
de santis is a very polarizing figure but i grew up in a country where if a governor asks if they can
00:34:09.980
come and raise awareness to help victims of a natural disaster you help i've generally stayed
00:34:14.520
out of politics throughout my career i knew people would chatter about this but for me the more
00:34:18.600
important piece was if i'm going to come back there a few weeks after a large portion of people have
00:34:24.740
been affected by a natural disaster in a state where people have been good to me this felt right
00:34:29.340
raise awareness have a little fun between the georgia and florida college fans before the game
00:34:33.580
and do what i love on stage this is all i'm saying about this i'll be outdoors with my boys
00:34:38.900
enjoy your sunday love y'all go dogs so not exactly an apology um but the the polarizing line is a form
00:34:50.340
of capitulation explaining yourself now i know i talk all the time about don't apologize and so you
00:34:59.460
know my speech about that um but but to even you know to even legitimize the criticisms by explaining
00:35:11.580
yourself in this way or sort of um granting you know granting the premise that yeah i know he's a
00:35:18.460
very polarizing polarizing figure i wouldn't even do that much like that's a form of of groveling you're
00:35:25.740
also explaining yourself to people who there's there's nothing there's nothing you can say
00:35:30.060
that's going to make it okay with them that's the lesson elon musk needs to learn you're trying to
00:35:35.080
appease people who can't be appeased meanwhile stacy abrams has been brought out you know at
00:35:41.560
at concerts in georgia and you think any of those a pop star to bring stacy abrams out you think
00:35:47.980
they're gonna explain it you think they're gonna release a statement saying i know she's a polarizing
00:35:54.060
figure no the people critical of stacy abrams being brought on stage they're just going to be
00:35:59.720
ignored and so that's the exact same thing you should do here just ignore them most these people
00:36:07.420
aren't country fans anyway they're not luke bryan fans so who cares what they say all right um well i
00:36:14.840
can't read any of this article to you because it's behind a paywall and uh i'm not going to pay but
00:36:19.940
here's the tweet from the economist with the link to the article it says in some circles vladimir
00:36:25.720
putin's invasion of ukraine has called into question not just the value of reading russian
00:36:30.920
masterworks but also the morality and the title of the article is yes the russian literary canon is
00:36:37.580
tainted by imperialism that doesn't mean you should stop reading it so i suppose we're supposed to
00:36:43.640
congratulate the economist for coming to the right conclusion here that you don't need to stop
00:36:48.280
reading russian novels um you don't need to hold tolstoy accountable for putin by refusing to read
00:36:55.260
his work especially because tolstoy died like 40 years before putin was ever born but entertaining
00:37:03.520
this objection at all is insane entertaining the idea that you would refrain from reading some of the
00:37:09.260
greatest novels of all time because of imperialism i mean that's what's ridiculous russian literature is
00:37:16.180
tainted by imperialism yeah do you know which which other great works of literature were uh
00:37:20.500
written by people who lived in an empire or who believed in what we call imperialism or who at
00:37:26.560
least had views on the subject that don't line up with modern mainstream leftism you know how many
00:37:31.460
like i don't know 80 of all of all the great books in history or maybe more maybe a hundred percent
00:37:36.880
certainly 100 of the great novels were written by people who whether on the subject of imperialism or on
00:37:44.180
other subjects had views that the modern left would find objectionable that is 100 of of the great
00:37:50.840
authors in history that's 100 of the great people in history which is why you don't you don't um
00:37:58.220
you don't hold them up to that standard it's absurd to do so a lot of great authors too were were you
00:38:07.860
know troubled people dostoevsky was not he would not have been a pleasant guy to be around
00:38:13.500
a lot a lot of interesting facts about his life but if you're going to let that stop you from
00:38:20.300
reading crime and punishment or from reading uh you know uh uh brothers k or one of his great books
00:38:26.980
then that's you know that's you're you're punishing yourself and if you want to punish themselves by
00:38:34.280
saying oh i can't i can't read this literature because i don't approve of it but if you want to
00:38:40.040
punish yourself in that way that's fine you're going to be a less interesting person reading great
00:38:44.680
works of literature makes you a more interesting well-rounded intelligent person so you are making
00:38:49.340
yourself less interesting and less intelligent you can do that i have no problem with that that's your
00:38:53.620
choice uh the issue is when this makes its way into the school system though you're making this choice
00:38:59.240
for kids which of course is the next step all right let's get now to the comment section
00:39:05.980

johnny the walrus says i'd love to see matt going through security alone at the airport and the tsa
00:40:33.100
searches his bag and sees a stuffed bearded baby well that's uh no we check those bags the bags with that
00:40:38.860
kind of paraphernalia i don't even know if that's legal on a plane or not so we check those uh that's uh
00:40:44.080
you know that's i don't want to test the tsa policies on that jamie jones says duane my son now
00:40:49.860
has 17 cavities and horrible nausea and vomiting because he wanted to eat all of his halloween candy
00:40:54.600
at once as a good parent i followed his lead i'll be sending you the medical and dental bills as you
00:41:00.240
are such a good dad and generous person i'm sure you're more than happy to cover it well remember
00:41:05.100
what what uh duane wade said is that our job what was the exact phrasing our job as a parent is to
00:41:11.060
it's to sit back and see where our kids want to go and just go there with them so yeah your kid
00:41:20.180
wants to go into the halloween bag and eat all of the candy all at once and so your job is to
00:41:25.420
it's to accompany them on on that journey be a supportive and affirming voice
00:41:31.340
anthony said matt thanks for covering the story about the priest and carrie you should hear what the
00:41:37.700
media are saying about it over here half the time they're saying that they want separation of church
00:41:41.460
and state but now all the government reps are weighing in and saying he should apologize so
00:41:46.340
separation only when it suits them another similar comment from the dublin kitchen hi matt i live in
00:41:53.320
dublin ireland it wasn't just the bishop that threw that priest under the bus over the last few days that
00:41:57.520
priest has been on mainstream media shows and they more or less tried to make him look stupid at least
00:42:02.060
or insane um the the the irish media has moved so much to the left it's hard to watch or even listen
00:42:07.520
to it anymore and this is all remember what they always what they what what we were told by the left
00:42:13.540
for so many years they said you know your religious views don't don't don't say them out in public keep
00:42:22.500
that that's what the church is for but put you know go to church if you want to be religious i don't
00:42:27.680
want to see your crosses and all the all that kind of stuff here uh just go to church you know church
00:42:32.580
is where is what religion is for and of course in the united states we have the first amendment and
00:42:37.900
that that was never an accurate reflection of what the first amendment guarantees you know you are
00:42:41.760
allowed to uh express your religious views anywhere that's what that's what the first amendment
00:42:46.420
guarantees but even so but what do we find out that actually no they don't even want you to talk
00:42:51.840
about this in church uh do you do all this talk all this christian nonsense in church well then then
00:42:58.360
you go to church and uh if a priest actually dares to express or teach christian values this is what
00:43:06.300
happens to him so it was all scam all along um brian says hey matt i really appreciated your commentary
00:43:14.740
on men being called to fatherhood i'm currently in my mid-30s and i've been taking care of my handicapped
00:43:20.020
father for the last four years of my life it's been hard to find a balance uh a love life on top of
00:43:25.260
that and improve my career but a big part of my nieces and nephews lives and i'm close with my
00:43:29.560
community i've coached little league and my little league teams in my community and strive to be a
00:43:33.760
positive member of the community even if i'm never able to have kids of my own i'll always be
00:43:38.000
called to some level of fatherhood and i think that's what you're saying thanks again keep up the good
00:43:42.560
work well that is exactly what i'm saying most most men are called to biological fatherhood to you
00:43:49.820
know to actually uh conceiving and raising kids but not all men and you know the other thing is that
00:43:57.300
there are men who are called to have to biological fatherhood we'll call it um and fulfill the first
00:44:04.820
part of the calling which is conceiving the children but then not the rest of it and then
00:44:08.740
they just abandon their kids and what that means is that uh in a lot of communities you've got a lot of
00:44:13.620
a lot of young kids young men who don't have the male role models and that's where someone like
00:44:19.400
yourself you know as a as a coach as a uh as a role model mentor you know you can be you can you
00:44:26.160
can be that male role model and that um that uh uh example to those to those kids so that is certainly
00:44:33.920
you know that it's not to say that you'll never get married and have kids of your own but you know
00:44:38.340
maybe this is this this will end up being ultimately your vocation and it's a quite a
00:44:41.820
noble vocation and it's still a it is still a paternal vocation uh let's see
00:44:49.920
matthew kelly says matt walsh complaining about people wanting to see themselves in mcdonald's toy
00:44:58.260
while a literal plush toy with his face on it sits right behind him is hilarious i know you think
00:45:05.800
you might have a gotcha here with that but the difference is i don't want to see myself that way
00:45:10.140
and i didn't i don't get it you think i have a choice in any of this you think they ask me
00:45:13.680
no they just they just one day say hey we got we made you into a baby doll toy and we're going to
00:45:19.980
sell your likeness and profit off of it they just tell me that so no i don't want to i don't want to
00:45:27.640
see myself that way but it just it just it just is it happens
00:45:30.640
and then when they tell me and i object to it and i say i i disagree with this in principle and they
00:45:38.220
say well we're doing it and then i say okay fine i just want to cut to the profits and that is that's
00:45:44.140
principle okay that's how i stand that's the kind of man i am as you all know flannel friday is a

00:47:41.340
slash walsh to become a member today now let's get to our daily cancellation
00:47:45.220
the world series is apparently happening this week or already happened there's no way to know
00:47:53.540
for sure all we know is that the racial bean counters are on the job on the lookout and the
00:47:58.460
associated press has this report quote looking around memorial stadium before game one of the 1983
00:48:04.080
world series philadelphia philly star gary matthews saw a lot of black talent joe morgan
00:48:10.920
eddie murray gary maddox ken singleton el bumbrey disco dan ford and plenty more that night in
00:48:17.500
baltimore there were quite a few of us matthews recalled when fans watched the houston astros and
00:48:22.300
phillies lineup this week to begin the fall classic it'll be a much different picture to be sure houston's
00:48:27.700
jose altuve and philadelphia's jean segura jean segura i don't know yeah probably jean jean
00:48:34.580
i just made him french jean segura are among scores of latin players
00:48:39.520
helping keep big league rosters diverse but for the first time since 1950 shortly after
00:48:45.180
jackie robinson broke the major league baseball color barrier their project to be uh their project
00:48:50.680
to be no u.s born so this is no u.s born black players in this world series zero quote that is
00:48:58.920
eye-opening said bob kendrick president of the negro leagues baseball stadium in kansas city missouri
00:49:04.260
quote it somewhat uh is startling that two cities that have high african-american populations
00:49:08.840
that there wouldn't be a single black player it lets us know there's obviously a lot of work to
00:49:13.080
be done to create opportunities for black kids to pursue their dream at the highest level he said
00:49:17.740
robinson debuted in 1947 with the brooklyn dodgers and played in the world series that year since then
00:49:22.120
the 1950 matchup between the new york yankees and phillies has been the only world series without a
00:49:27.920
black player okay so there are no black players scratch that there are no u.s born black players
00:49:36.200
so you can mark this down as the first time the left-wing media has ever advocated for u.s born
00:49:43.500
people you will never hear them lament the absence of u.s born citizens in any context unless they found
00:49:51.420
some strange way to fit it into their racial grievance narrative as they have here and and if there
00:49:57.140
is a racial grievance however ridiculous and petty it may be to be found in the sports world you can
00:50:01.840
guarantee that stephen a smith will be following close behind indeed the more ridiculous and petty
00:50:06.540
the better as far as he's concerned and so here's what he had to say we are still black in this country
00:50:13.020
we don't trust this country in terms of meritocracy always we know the bottom line is is that just like
00:50:21.920
women are underpaid compared to male counterparts blacks are underpaid compared to white counterparts
00:50:27.900
and so when you look at it from that perspective and of course i pay people look at me i'm not
00:50:32.060
talking about me even though i got news for you i am underpaid compared to some people on television
00:50:36.860
and what they get paid but that's a subject for another day i ain't apologizing for that to a damn
00:50:41.160
so i am underpaid having said all of that it ain't about me i just made it about me but it's not about
00:50:48.580
me let me talk about myself but this isn't about me smith is underpaid he says he makes 12 million
00:50:53.580
dollars a year and is one of the highest paid broadcasters of the world he has managed to
00:50:57.660
pull in that salary despite the fact that it's physically impossible to listen to him for more
00:51:02.100
than 45 seconds without developing a debilitating migraine he has never made an insightful point in
00:51:08.060
his entire career not one person on earth has ever said this phrase you know steven a smith made a
00:51:14.360
really good point today no one's ever said that ever that is a statement that has never been
00:51:19.420
uttered by human lips and yet he's made a million dollars a month he makes more in a month than the
00:51:25.220
average american will make in like 20 years and he's underpaid and he's the victim of racism never
00:51:30.100
mind that his most recent white co-host max kellerman made a fraction of his salary you know but these
00:51:35.600
details are irrelevant for some reason yeah we shouldn't let this this stupidity distract us
00:51:40.720
from the stupidity that was meant to be the subject of our daily cancellation which is the claim that a
00:51:45.180
lack of u.s born black players in the world series is a symptom of racism notice how the game is played
00:51:50.360
here like every roster in the nfl is majority black but there's still racism because there's not enough
00:51:55.880
coaches who are black the world series has minority players major league baseball in general has tons of
00:52:01.420
minority players but there's still racism because there aren't enough of them born in the united states
00:52:06.080
houston's manager is also black that doesn't count because he's not a player so the nfl is racist
00:52:13.440
because there are black players but not enough black coaches the world series is racist because there are
00:52:19.080
black coaches but not enough black players it's almost like everything is racist literally no matter
00:52:24.740
what by the way here's the astros manager dusty baker who again is black talking about this issue listen
00:52:31.320
that's something that baseball you know should really be proud of you know because it's a it looks bad and
00:52:41.520
lets people know that you know uh it didn't take uh a year or even a decade to get to this point
00:52:52.460
uh but there is help on the way um uh you can tell by the number uh african-american number one draft
00:53:01.980
choices um the uh academies are are producing um players so um hopefully in the near future we won't
00:53:12.320
have to talk about this anymore even be in this situation in the future maybe we won't have to talk
00:53:18.940
about it anymore we don't have to talk about it now he says it looks bad so so which of his white
00:53:24.120
players should be replaced by a black player does he have players on his team who don't deserve to be
00:53:28.680
there whose fault is that if so is this what systemic racism looks like what kind of systemically
00:53:35.460
racist system in the nfl would welcome hundreds of black players and pay them millions of dollars
00:53:39.460
what kind of systemically racist system in the mlb would welcome tons of foreign-born non-white
00:53:44.800
players and pay them millions of dollars is this how systemic racism works now is there actually
00:53:51.820
evidence of u.s born blacks being denied from baseball rosters rosters because of the color of
00:53:58.200
their skin and the and their origin of birth isn't it simply true that black kids in america are less
00:54:05.340
likely to end up playing baseball because they're much more likely to end up playing basketball or football
00:54:09.620
isn't that a result of choice not racism and if lack of opportunity does factor in isn't it that merely you know
00:54:17.400
a function of the fact that black people are more likely than whites to live in urban environments where
00:54:21.580
baseball fields are more scarce because they take up more space and basketball hoops are more common
00:54:26.340
what does it even mean to say that more black people should be playing baseball don't the black people
00:54:34.140
themselves have a say in this which of the non-baseball playing black americans should be
00:54:39.880
playing baseball right now should we like assign it to them should we force them into it in order to
00:54:45.500
balance the racial baseball scale anytime somebody laments a lack of x group in y profession what
00:54:52.780
they're really saying is that a certain portion of the members in that group who are not in that
00:54:56.940
profession should be in it but what does that mean i mean how can you make a statement like that
00:55:02.700
if you start guiding more black kids into baseball you're also guiding them away from
00:55:07.120
whatever else they might do one other point we're told that we need to increase black representation in
00:55:13.080
basically every profession from sports to medicine to engineering and so on but black people are a
00:55:18.300
minority in this country you really can't dramatically increase the representation in every possible
00:55:23.520
profession there just aren't enough people to go around unless of course you also increase the number of
00:55:29.680
black people born in the u.s but the left doesn't want to do that because they're too busy killing
00:55:35.340
millions of black people in the womb but these points are all academic i mean the race hustlers
00:55:40.940
don't care about any of it they'll find racism under every rock and in every nook and cranny they'll find it
00:55:46.320
one way or another because the victim narrative must stay alive no matter what and that is why
00:55:54.600
stephen a smith and the associated press both repeat customers repeat offenders i should say
00:56:01.420
are today canceled and that'll do it for this portion of the show as we move over to our members
00:56:06.720
block hope to see you there if not talk to you on monday have a great weekend godspeed
