The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 1507 - The Final Matt Walsh Show Episode Of 2024

00:00:00.000 This is the final episode of the Matt Wall Show for 2024. It was a big year, a strange year,

00:00:06.240 and ultimately a great year for the entire country, one that saw the fall of the Biden

00:00:12.200 regime, the end of the Obama dynasty, and Trump like a phoenix rising from the ashes to reclaim

00:00:20.140 the White House. It was also a big year and a great year for me and the rest of the team here

00:00:25.520 at the Daily Wire. After many months of work, we finally released our follow-up to What is a Woman,

00:00:31.840 which went on to become the top film in its genre this decade and had a bigger debut on the Daily

00:00:36.600 Wire platform than even What is a Woman had. So there's been a lot to celebrate, but most 0.86

00:00:41.400 importantly, it was a year for canceling. We canceled hundreds of people and things and even

00:00:49.060 animals, I think, on this show during the calendar year of 2024. And so today for the final show of

00:00:55.240 the year, we're going to take a look back at the top four cancellations of the year 2024. And just

00:01:02.700 as a note, my team initially wanted to do a top three, but I said, no, it should be four because

00:01:08.280 four in 2024 sounds better. This is the kind of artistic insight that keeps the audience coming

00:01:14.900 back for more. So let's get to the list. For number four, we go back to the very beginning of the year,

00:01:20.560 actually January 8th, 2024, with the cancellation of Madonna, who attracted my ire and prompted a 13

00:01:27.900 minute rant because she danced funny at a concert. Here it is.

00:01:32.740 Well, Madonna recently embarked on her new global tour called Celebration.

00:02:02.720 And indeed, the tour is an opportunity to celebrate her musical career, which effectively

00:02:08.400 died 25 years ago and yet has lingered on in zombified form, horrifying and confusing spectators

00:02:14.780 all the while. As far as I can tell, she has not had a number one single since the tail end of the

00:02:19.200 Clinton administration. She hasn't been even vaguely relevant on the music scene at any point this

00:02:24.540 century. The last time she made headlines was when she kissed Britney Spears at the VMAs in 2003. 1.00

00:02:30.280 Way back then, she had already entered into her desperate attention whore phase, grasping for 0.84

00:02:35.600 relevance in whatever way she could. And 20 years later, Britney Spears is now dancing half naked on

00:02:40.480 Instagram with butcher knives. And Madonna looks like a geriatric Marilyn Manson still trying to be 0.99

00:02:45.280 a sex symbol, even though she's been AARP eligible for a decade and a half. And anyway, now she's on tour.

00:02:53.200 Now, there's nothing wrong with a 65-year-old singer going on tour. Aretha Franklin was still

00:03:00.660 performing at the age of 75 before she died. But a 65-year-old woman should perform like a 65-year-old 0.88

00:03:08.440 woman. Classy, refined, mature, dignified, dazzling with a beautiful vocal performance rather than relying

00:03:17.480 on sex appeal. The problem, though, is that Madonna can't sing and she can't write good music and she 1.00

00:03:24.820 wouldn't know classiness and refinement if it fell out of the sky and landed on her head. Which means 1.00

00:03:30.020 that the people who buy tickets for the celebration tour and for the life of me, I can't understand why

00:03:34.120 anyone would, are in for an incredibly cringey display. And however cringey you think it might be,

00:03:40.580 I assure you, that it's even worse than that. So case in point, here's a 12-second viral clip

00:03:46.800 from Madonna's latest stop on her tour. And here's what it looks like.

00:03:52.820 Now, if you're wondering what a wreck time at the nursing home will look like in the year 2070,

00:04:13.760 there it is. And for those who are blessed to only be listening to the audio podcast and were therefore

00:04:20.100 spared the visuals, I will just tell you that Madonna appears to be wrapped in aluminum foil

00:04:25.540 while she clings onto a support rail and gyrates clumsily to techno music. And, you know, it's kind 0.82

00:04:33.380 of like if you brought your elderly aunt to a rave and she got way more into it than you expected.

00:04:41.200 It's an embarrassing sight to behold, but also oddly fascinating in the same grotesque way that,

00:04:46.400 you know, you might gawk at roadkill while you drive by trying to figure out, like,

00:04:51.000 is that a raccoon or a fox? What is that? And by the way, this is a good time to tell you that.

00:04:55.720 And I did check for myself. Madonna's next stop is in Boston in three days. And you might think,

00:05:02.560 well, it's in three days. There's no way I can go. All the seats are going to be,

00:05:05.460 all the tickets are sold out. No, there are plenty of seats still available. In fact,

00:05:08.740 you can buy a ticket for 60 bucks. You can buy a ticket for $60 to Madonna's tour in three days.

00:05:14.360 You know, people were like literally killing each other over Taylor Swift's tickets or buying them

00:05:21.040 for $95,000. But Madonna, you can go see for 60 bucks. Shockingly, people are not tripping over

00:05:27.280 themselves to go watch grandma in Zumba class for two hours. But needless to say, if you find this

00:05:33.420 spectacle ridiculous, then the problem isn't with the aging pop star throwing her hip out while she 1.00

00:05:40.960 tries to twerk on stage. The problem is with you. You are ageist, according to the media.

00:05:46.900 The Independent reports today, quote, Madonna is being defended from ageist trolls after a video

00:05:51.740 showing the singer performing while holding a beam for support, surfaced online. Earlier this week,

00:05:56.680 a clip from the Like a Prayer Singer Celebration Tour was shared on TikTok, showing the star, 65,

00:06:02.020 dancing energetically while holding a pole positioned behind her.

00:06:05.920 Now let's pause there for a moment. And I can tell you it's never a good sign when the best

00:06:13.940 thing someone can say about your dance moves is that they were energetic. Like if you perform a

00:06:20.260 dance routine and you go up to someone and you say, hey, what'd you think? And they respond, yeah,

00:06:25.620 wow, it was energetic. I mean, that means you sucked. Okay. Anyway, the Independent continues,

00:06:34.340 many trolls then proceeded to incorrectly conflate Madonna's decision to hold the rail for support with

00:06:39.000 her age and sent her messages of vitriol online. However, it has since been revealed that during this

00:06:44.520 particular segment of the show, Madonna is dancing while standing on a moving platform, meaning she 0.71

00:06:48.620 is holding the pole for her safety. Oh, well, that changes everything. The 65 year old woman needed to 1.00

00:06:55.020 hold the pole while she danced for her safety. Well, that, that solves that, I guess. People

00:07:02.900 Magazine reports that other aging musicians are coming to Madonna's defense. Quote, Chuck D is coming

00:07:08.340 to Madonna's defense. On Thursday, the public enemy frontman 63 posted to X to defend the frozen singer,

00:07:14.880 65. By the way, frozen singer is like, I guess that's a song. That's what they mean. It's not,

00:07:19.740 they don't mean that she's like literally frozen, like cryogenically frozen. Although she does sort of

00:07:24.600 look like she has been. Anyway, defend against trolls making ageist comments about her performance

00:07:29.980 during her career spanning Celebration Tour. He said, quote, at 63, I know I can bike better than

00:07:34.800 I ever did and Pilates ain't easy, but I give it to Madonna for pushing the bars, D said of the

00:07:39.580 legendary pop star. Flav is taking Pilates too and he's 64. So ageism sometimes gets like racism both

00:07:48.540 ways if you let it. Wait, go up again. Ageism sometimes gets like racism both ways if you let

00:07:57.760 it. I think Chuck D had a stroke when he wrote that last sentence. I don't know what that means.

00:08:03.600 But you see, the point is, it is ageism to notice how ridiculous an older woman looks when she tries 1.00

00:08:10.480 to pretend that she's still 22. And Madonna herself has made this point many times. A few months ago,

00:08:16.560 she appeared at the Grammys and her face, if you remember, was so weird and puffy from plastic

00:08:21.520 surgery that she looked like she'd been attacked by a swarm of bees shortly before appearing on stage.

00:08:27.200 And again, people noticed how weird she looked and she responded by calling them ageist. The Guardian

00:08:33.420 reported at the time, quote, the 64-year-old singer denounced the entertainment industry for its biases

00:08:38.240 against women who have continued to work long into their careers. Quote, once again, I am caught in the

00:08:44.360 glare of ageism and misogyny that permeates the world we live in. A world that refuses to celebrate

00:08:49.600 women past the age of 45 and feels the need to punish her if she continues to be strong-willed, 1.00

00:08:54.600 hardworking, and adventurous. She said that she has, quote, never apologized for any of the creative

00:08:59.060 choices I have made, nor the way that I look or dress, and I'm not going to start. I've been degraded

00:09:03.680 by the media since the beginning of my career, but I understand that this is all a test, and I am happy

00:09:07.760 to do the trailblazing so that all the women behind me can have an easier time in the years to come. 1.00

00:09:13.760 Yes, thank you for trailblazing, Madonna. You have blazed a trail that other women can follow so that

00:09:19.020 they too can become addicted to Botox and end up looking like the creepy puppet from Saw. How brave of you.

00:09:26.340 Now, as for the ageism claims, let me just say one thing. We are not an ageist society. We are the

00:09:37.380 opposite. We are an age-denying society, and that's how you end up with 65-year-old pop stars and 80-year-old

00:09:45.700 presidents and a Congress filled with people who took office sometime around the War of 1812.

00:09:51.220 You know, it's also why plastic surgery is a booming industry, especially among Gen Z.

00:09:57.020 You know, in Gen Z, I mean, they are actually young, but in their desperation to stay young, 1.00

00:10:02.420 they get lip filler and Botox and lifts and implants, and ironically, they end up looking a lot older.

00:10:08.080 They end up looking like middle-aged Stepford wives. Ageism is not even close to our problem.

00:10:14.860 Our problem is our refusal to age and to accept the reality of aging.

00:10:21.220 Madonna is just, she is too old to be gyrating on stage in a skin-tight aluminum leotard. And we can

00:10:30.120 argue about whether anyone of any age should be behaving that way, but there's no question that

00:10:34.280 for her at her age, she looks pathetic and clumsy and ridiculous. And it's not that a 65-year-old woman 0.99

00:10:43.260 can't be beautiful. No, a 65-year-old woman can be beautiful, but a beautiful 65-year-old woman 1.00

00:10:49.320 is a 65-year-old woman who knows that she is 65 and embraces the fact. You know, beauty and truth

00:10:57.760 go hand in hand. But when you are not honest with yourself and the world about who you are,

00:11:05.160 you end up looking not beautiful, but weird and grotesque. Just like there are plenty of 25-year-old

00:11:11.060 women who would be beautiful and were beautiful, but then they defiled themselves with unnecessary 1.00

00:11:16.520 plastic surgery. And now they too look weird and grotesque. You know, aging is a reality of human

00:11:23.880 existence. And we find this reality scary, almost unspeakable really, because it reminds us of death.

00:11:31.180 I mean, we treat it as literally unspeakable. Like it's embarrassing to ask someone their age,

00:11:36.200 right? We say you shouldn't ask someone. Someone's age is an embarrassing fact. And we take that for 1.00

00:11:43.140 granted. Well, you know, in traditional societies, you go back to their history.

00:11:48.600 If you went up to someone and asked them, although they wouldn't be, oh, that's, I don't,

00:11:53.040 you know, I'm 25. I've been celebrating my 25th birthday for 30 years now. They wouldn't do that.

00:11:59.840 They'd be proud of their age. If somebody was 75, they would say, I'm 75. They'd be proud of it

00:12:05.260 because it means they've been alive for 75 years. But here we treat it as actually embarrassing

00:12:12.940 to have lived a long life. It's ridiculous. And the reason is that we are in a constant state of

00:12:20.620 denial about death. You know, we say things like age is just a number, but that's only true in the

00:12:27.260 same sense that height is just a number or the temperature outside is just a number. No, we come up

00:12:32.220 with numbers to symbolize these realities, but they are still realities. We could stop keeping

00:12:38.240 track of age altogether. We could assign it no number at all. And that wouldn't change the fact

00:12:43.100 that we all get older one second at a time. And eventually our bodies start to break down and our

00:12:48.300 minds start to break down and then we die. That is the lot that we have been given. Happiness and

00:12:53.900 harmony and beauty can be found in accepting it and acting accordingly. So the most beautiful thing

00:13:00.740 that Madonna could do right now is retire and go home and put on some slippers and sit on her porch 1.00

00:13:08.140 and read books to her grandchildren. Let the wrinkles form on her face. Let the hair go gray.

00:13:14.720 Let herself be who she is. And she is not a 22-year-old pop star. She was that once. She

00:13:23.640 will never be that again. Time to accept it. And until she does, she is again canceled.

00:13:31.160 Are you feeling the stress about giving your family a memorable holiday? You're not alone. Prices

00:13:36.500 remain higher than ever and a lot of us are maxing out our credit cards. Now's the perfect time to take

00:14:30.000 The state of our country. But at least I'm not tossing and turning because of my mattress anymore.

00:14:34.820 That's right, folks. I'm talking about Helix Sleep. Now, you might be thinking, Matt, aren't

00:14:39.080 all mattresses basically the same? Wrong. That's liberal thinking right there. Helix understands

00:14:44.620 that we're all different. Unlike the left's one-size-fits-all policies, they offer 20 unique

00:14:53.940 deserve some luxury. The Helix Plus for you big and tall fellas and even a Helix kids mattress. 0.79

00:15:00.000 You know, what really sold me was how they customize each mattress. My old one was just

00:15:05.540 a mattress. This one, though, feels like it was made just for me. Helix has a sleep quiz

00:15:10.120 that'll match you with your perfect mattress in under two minutes so you can get better sleep

00:15:13.840 and a better start to each day. Here's another reason to love Helix. Their mattresses have so

00:15:18.500 many helpful features to ensure you get a good night's rest. The layers in this thing are just

00:15:22.960 incredible. There's this pressure-relieving memory foam that makes you feel like you're sleeping

00:15:27.120 on a cloud. They also use this special technology that keeps me cool all night. I used to wake up

00:15:32.140 sweating, just a sweaty, disgusting mess, but not anymore. Truly, just so many things to love

00:15:58.000 With Helix, better sleep starts now. Now, I always like to take any opportunity that I can to remind

00:16:04.220 the audience that they're all going to die, as I do at the end there. And I think approximately

00:16:09.380 35% of my cancellations end on that note or something similar, which I think is very important.

00:16:19.160 Moving on to number three, we go from an old bitter harpy to a young bitter harpy. This is

00:16:24.240 my cancellation, one of, I think, several this year, of the new Snow White, Rachel Zegler.

00:16:31.180 Every time we check in on Disney's upcoming Snow White remake, somehow things get even worse than they

00:16:36.420 were before. This is a production that went off the rails a long time ago, which is quite an

00:16:39.760 achievement, if you think about it. With all the money and technology we have in 2024, somehow Disney

00:16:44.120 is struggling very hard to match the quality of a film from the 1930s. Now, first, there were the

00:16:49.920 leaked images of the actors playing the seven dwarves, which weren't dwarves at all, because that

00:16:54.760 would be culturally insensitive. So instead, Disney replaced the dwarves with a diverse array of magical

00:16:58.920 hobos. Then, when everyone pointed out that the dwarves are kind of important to the story,

00:17:03.260 Disney delayed the production, fired all the actors playing the magical hobos, replaced them

00:17:07.780 with CGI dwarves, which didn't look particularly convincing, but at least they were better than 1.00

00:17:11.800 the actors. So some progress was made, I suppose. Goodwill was restored to a degree. Then the star

00:17:17.760 of the film, Rachel Zegler, proceeded to light all that goodwill on fire. She made it clear that she 0.90

00:17:22.220 thinks the story of Snow White is actually very creepy and misogynistic. She said Disney was basically

00:17:27.060 going to throw out the old story, get rid of the prince, make a film that supposedly empowers women,

00:17:32.180 and that means downplaying the whole romance thing, which was the whole point of the story.

00:17:38.000 Hiring the Barbie screenwriter and going full-on girl boss was the plan. Then a short clip of the 1.00

00:17:42.840 film serviced online, and we saw exactly what a girl boss Snow White looks like. The clip showed

00:17:47.000 Snow White directing the dwarves to clean their own cottage for her as she instructs them to whistle 0.90

00:17:51.820 while they work. Yes, the dwarves come home from a long day at the mines, and they're met by a bossy,

00:17:56.940 unpleasant woman telling them to clean up. Doesn't even help them in this version, which is a pretty 1.00

00:18:02.140 big change from the original. She also doesn't seem remotely grateful that they're giving her a

00:18:05.800 place to stay when she desperately needs it. Instead, she just sings along and watches the

00:18:09.260 dwarves do all the work, almost sadistically, really. And once again, as you'd expect, this

00:18:13.480 footage caused a backlash, and Disney quickly had it scrubbed from the internet. Then a couple of

00:18:18.120 months ago, Disney uploaded this teaser for the film. This was their big moment to win back the fans.

00:18:23.520 Here's just a quick part of it.

00:18:26.240 So, whistle while you work.

00:18:44.280 So, the whole thing has this kind of uncanny valley vibe to it, and pretty much all the comments are

00:18:49.220 negative. Just going through some of them. These are the top comments. In order, by the way, I'm not

00:18:53.140 cherry picking. This is just the top comments. Here's what they say. Quote, this is actually

00:18:56.400 hilarious. The first Snow White saved Disney. The second ruined it. Another says, what's the point

00:19:00.740 of doing a live action remake of an animated movie if you're just going to animate half the characters

00:19:04.900 anyway? Then there's this one. Quote, it's okay, Disney. You can just cancel the film. We won't be mad if

00:19:10.140 you admit defeat. There are a few people who point out that the trailer has more than a million dislikes on

00:19:15.220 YouTube and fewer than 100,000 likes. There's information that YouTube hides, but it's still accessible

00:19:19.840 apparently. Comments go downhill from there. One reads, wow, Disney, you truly are incredible. It took you

00:19:25.700 three years, multiple rewrites, unnecessary CGI, $209 million just for me to enjoy a comment section of a movie

00:19:31.680 I will never watch. Bless you. Then someone writes, I'm rooting for the poison apple. So, you get the idea.

00:19:38.180 Everything about this film is an unmitigated disaster. Even their teaser trailers are bombing.

00:19:42.040 After all this, if there are any adults left at Disney, you'd think they'd be in damage control

00:19:48.000 mode at this point. Maybe they can't control how bad this film is going to be. Maybe they can't

00:19:52.740 improve the CGI on the dwarves anymore. Way too late for script rewrites. Costs a lot of money and

00:19:58.580 they're probably well over budget at this point. But at a minimum, you'd think that they could at least

00:20:02.880 say, tell Rachel Zegler to stop talking like a deranged left-wing activist just for a little bit. 1.00

00:20:09.160 Just until the movie comes out, that might mitigate some of the potential future damage

00:20:13.960 for this film, which is somehow already getting even worse press than Joker 2 and not even out

00:20:18.820 yet. But apparently telling Rachel Zegler to behave normally just isn't an option either. 0.79

00:20:23.800 So the other day, in response to the presidential election, Zegler had a very public meltdown on her 1.00

00:20:28.420 Instagram stories. She wrote, quote, F you, Donald Trump. And she proceeded to insult the 75 million 0.99

00:20:34.660 Americans who voted for him. Quote, I find myself speechless in the midst of this. Another four

00:20:39.220 years of hatred, leaning us towards a world I do not want to live in. Yeah, you always got to love

00:20:45.500 starting with F you and then ending with, you know, complaining about all the hatred in the world.

00:20:52.840 Of course, if Zegler doesn't want to live in America anymore, she's free to leave. She certainly 1.00

00:20:56.340 has the resources to do that. But she seems to suggest that Donald Trump will make the entire world

00:21:01.160 uninhabitable, which, you know, it's kind of a new one. Actually, it's not entirely new. It reminds

00:21:05.700 us of reminds me of 2016 when Cher declared that she would have to leave the planet if Donald Trump

00:21:11.520 won. And she never left, strangely enough, although she kind of looks like she did. And ironically,

00:21:16.720 if she wants to leave the planet now, Elon Musk is probably her best bet, which raises his own

00:21:21.100 complications, I guess. So these celebrities are really running out of options. But Zegler wasn't done

00:21:26.980 there. Her post added that Trump is, quote, leading us towards a world that will be hard to raise

00:21:31.000 my daughter in, leaning us towards a world that will force her to have a baby she doesn't want, 1.00

00:21:35.760 leaning us towards a world that is fearful. She stated that, quote, the left continues to fail

00:21:40.460 us in forging a new path forwards. This loss should not have been, and it certainly should not have

00:21:45.500 been by so many votes. May Trump supporters and Trump voters and Trump himself never know peace.

00:21:52.920 Now, what's amusing about this, of course, is that it's pretty clear that Zegler is the one who

00:21:57.240 doesn't know peace. She's obviously an emotionally unstable basket case who has no idea how to process 1.00

00:22:03.060 the fact that none of her paranoia is based in reality, and the vast majority of Americans don't

00:22:07.960 agree with her political views. So instead of coming to terms with her own faults and misconceptions,

00:22:12.680 she says that she wants Trump supporters to suffer emotionally, just as she does every single day.

00:22:17.700 Misery loves company, as they say. In further examples of projection, Zegler went on to state that Trump

00:22:23.200 voters are part of a, quote, deep, deep sickness in this country. She added, quote, there's no help,

00:22:29.020 no counsel in any of them, whatever that means exactly. Then she told all of her fans to delete

00:22:35.060 their X accounts, charging that Elon Musk helped get that man elected. This is a bit of an aside,

00:22:41.080 but this is a common trend now on the left. They're suddenly abandoning X now that Trump has won.

00:22:45.660 The Guardian just announced that it's going to stop posting its articles on X. For one example,

00:22:50.000 ex-CNN anchor Don Lemon, along with a random NYU professor named Jay Rosen, did the same thing.

00:22:55.160 I just saw this morning, Joy Reid has also deleted her X account. What a tragedy. This is a platform

00:23:02.900 that until Election Day, these people claimed was a cesspool of fringe ideas and radical beliefs,

00:23:08.900 but they remained on it anyway. Now that the election has proven that X is actually representative

00:23:12.900 of mainstream thought in America, suddenly they can't tolerate it anymore. They have to abandon the

00:23:17.740 platform. Doesn't really make any sense. You can only conclude that the left is simply incapable

00:23:23.060 of realizing that they're the ones who are far outside the mainstream. When they're confronted

00:23:27.400 with that evidence, they can't process it. So they have to scamper away. They're just totally

00:23:33.520 humiliated. In any event, Rachel Zegler is not capable of experiencing humiliation, so she has no

00:23:39.420 problem telling her supporters to abandon X entirely. She also has no problem going on an unhinged rant 1.00

00:23:44.240 against more than half the country, including a lot of people that presumably Disney would like

00:23:48.380 to sell tickets to. Many of those Republican voters are in the target audience for the Snow White

00:23:52.700 remake. They're the people who like these kinds of traditional stories. They're the people who are

00:23:57.540 having kids. These are the kinds of people Disney needs to show up if the movie is going to be remotely

00:24:03.280 profitable. And now the star of the film is telling them all to go to hell. Now, one of the many

00:24:10.240 ironies here is that about a year ago, Disney CEO Bob Iger said the company would stop getting

00:24:16.120 involved in these political fights. He said that they wouldn't push any kind of agenda.

00:24:20.500 He said they'd quiet the noise and proceed with decency and respect for their audience.

00:24:26.640 Well, I guess so much for that. Now, according to the star of Disney's upcoming marquee film,

00:24:32.100 75 million Americans are horrible people who should suffer for all eternity. 0.88

00:24:36.920 The other remarkable aspect to this is that Disney, as you may recall, fired Gina Carano for her

00:24:45.540 allegedly controversial social media post just a couple of years ago. And, you know, Gina Carano

00:24:50.420 never did anything remotely like what Rachel Zegler has done. Gina mocked the idea of wearing masks and 1.00

00:24:57.740 preferred pronouns, which makes sense because wearing masks and preferred pronouns are both really dumb

00:25:01.640 ideas. And she pointed out that totalitarian governments make citizens hate one another,

00:25:05.760 which is true. History proves that's true. And for all this, Disney fired her and her talent

00:25:12.680 agency dropped her on top of it. Gina Carano did not personally attack tens of millions of people. 0.93

00:25:17.960 She didn't berate her own fan base. She didn't say that half of the people who watch Star Wars are

00:25:22.920 bad people. She didn't say that. Instead, she articulated views that the vast majority of Americans agree with.

00:25:28.020 So why is she still involved in litigation with Disney to get her job back while Rachel Zegler 1.00

00:25:35.000 is the face of the company's upcoming blockbuster film? Now, we all know the answer to that question.

00:25:40.500 Disney, despite what its CEO says, is an explicitly political operation. But more than that, they're

00:25:45.140 vengeful. Even though it's clearly not helping them financially, they can't hide their disdain for tens

00:25:50.060 of millions of Americans. That's very bad news for Disney shareholders and everyone else hoping that

00:25:55.360 this company might one day return to what it once did, which is to create entertaining family films

00:26:00.800 that normal people want to watch. It's virtually a guarantee the Snow White remake is going to

00:26:05.620 continue crashing and burning over the next few months like a slow-moving train wreck. And especially

00:26:10.900 now, after this was the nail in the coffin, now that you've insulted more than half of the people

00:26:17.380 you would need to come watch this movie. And that is why, once again, Disney, their new Snow White

00:26:22.320 film and Rachel Zegler herself are all today canceled. If you're a homeowner like me, when's

00:26:27.900 the last time you checked on the title to your home? That's a legal document that shows that you

00:26:32.180 own it. If the answer is never, you need to know that a fast-growing crime, according to the FBI,

00:26:38.520 is called house stealing. I was recently shown how easy this scam is to pull off. And let me tell you,

00:26:43.000 it's pretty shocking. This one-page document is called a quit-claim deed. Criminals are forging these

00:26:47.980 documents by filling them out with your information, signing it with a fake signature, and stamping it

00:26:52.680 with a notary seal that you can get online for $20, and then filing them with county officials, and

00:26:57.760 that's it. It's all it takes for your home to be transferred out of your name without your knowledge.

00:27:02.980 But here's the thing. The scammers don't want your house. They're after your equity. They take out loans

00:27:07.680 using your home as collateral, and then they disappear, leaving you with a financial and legal

00:27:11.920 nightmare. But you can protect yourself from this despicable crime right now with triple lock

00:27:16.760 protection from home title lock. Just like how my producer, Sean Hampton, protects his home,

00:29:02.560 Our number two cancellation throws a bit of a curveball. The Washington Post reviewed my film,

00:29:08.560 Am I Racist? And their take on my film was actually truly shocking. Watch.

00:29:15.980 Well, we know that the mainstream media is corrupt, dishonest, and both intellectually and morally

00:29:22.380 bankrupt. That is the fundamental reason why, as we've been tracking on the show for the past few

00:29:26.680 weeks, mainstream film critics have refused to review my new film, Am I Racist? But credit where credit is

00:29:32.220 due, a few journalists, even if they aren't film critics, from a few major publications have had the

00:29:37.720 gumption to acknowledge the movie's existence. And yesterday, most unexpectedly, the Washington Post

00:29:44.400 was added to that list. The film critic at the Post, whoever it is, still has not reviewed the film

00:29:50.080 and probably never will. But the journalist Megan McArdle did bravely venture to theaters to watch 0.94

00:29:58.060 the movie and wrote about it. Wrote about it mostly positively, it turns out, after the fact. And

00:30:04.140 here's the headline. You might not enjoy Am I Racist? You should watch it anyway. Which I could not agree

00:30:10.980 more. Whether you like it or don't, still watch it. That's my message. Now, even before reading her

00:30:19.220 piece, I'm impressed simply that she's willing to do the thing that people who are paid to watch and

00:30:25.120 write about movies have been too afraid to do. But the readers of the Washington Post are not so

00:30:31.000 impressed. In fact, their reaction demonstrates why most mainstream outlets have been too afraid

00:30:36.380 to venture down this road. And we'll take a look at their reaction in just a moment. But first, let's

00:30:41.000 read a little bit of McArdle's take on the film. She begins, as I drove to the AMC theater in Danvers,

00:30:48.300 Massachusetts, my phone kept peppering me with the same plaintive question. Am I racist? It was

00:30:54.980 startling the first time it happened. And for a second, I wanted to reassure my phone that no

00:30:58.920 consumer electronic device can't be racist. But the phone wasn't really asking. Rather,

00:31:04.800 it was reminding me that I had tickets for the latest movie by Matt Walsh, a conservative podcaster

00:31:09.160 and provocateur who was probably most famous for his film What is a Woman? That movie apparently did

00:31:14.000 well enough to justify releasing the new one onto about 1,500 screens this month. It was number four at

00:31:19.240 the box office, albeit a distant fourth in a very slow week, which is why I was going to see it.

00:31:23.960 While you might not like this suggestion, you should do the same. Just, you know, FYI, actually,

00:31:32.840 it wasn't a very slow week. Our film came out only a week after Beetlejuice set box office records for

00:31:38.180 the month. And we weren't a distant fourth. We were like 700K behind the third place film, which isn't

00:31:43.220 really distant. And that was Deadpool and Wolverine. But, you know, but who's counting? I mean, I'm

00:31:49.380 counting obsessively every day, but let's not get hung up on those details. Continuing. I'm not

00:31:55.000 promising you'll enjoy the movie. If you're on the liberal to progressive side, you'll think it's

00:31:58.920 simplistic and unfair, which, yes, obviously. But it's also effective. And people on that end of the

00:32:04.320 spectrum should watch it to understand why it works and why the left keeps providing Walsh such a rich

00:32:09.000 trove of targets. If you don't like the people he's lampooning, it's easy to convince yourself that he's

00:32:13.680 revealing something deep and important, just as I've heard progressives argue that Borat movies

00:32:17.460 were laying bare the hateful underbelly of America. But what Walsh is actually revealing is two not very

00:32:22.840 surprising realities of human nature. First, that every group has an awful fringe, and it's easy to

00:32:27.800 make that group look bad if only the fringe's worst moments survive the cutting room floor. Second,

00:32:33.040 that the human instinct for avoiding confrontation is exploitable if you're sufficiently willing to violate

00:32:38.520 the social contract. Both points have already been amply demonstrated by a long history of cults and

00:32:44.420 dictatorships, not to mention middle school. Yet to give Walsh his due, it's still jaw-dropping when

00:32:50.500 participants in the ersatz diversity workshop sit silently or even participate as he berates a sick

00:32:55.640 looking elderly man in a wheelchair for being a racist. Walsh eventually stops the workshop when it

00:33:00.480 seems as though they're actually considering flagellating themselves with the whips that he's passed out.

00:33:05.200 So this is not exactly a rave review. She credits the film for being effective, but also calls it

00:33:12.300 simplistic and unfair. She also attempts to absolve the left of any blame for what we document in the

00:33:18.040 movie. And she does that by writing off Robin DiAngelo and company as the fringe. Now, as one of the guys

00:33:27.320 who made the film, I of course disagree with these assessments. The core message of the film may be in

00:33:34.420 many ways simple, but that's not the same as being simplistic. And the Robin DiAngelo's of the world

00:33:40.520 are certainly not in any way the fringe of the left. You know, Robin DiAngelo conveys and promotes

00:33:49.020 left-wing racial ideology, not a fringe version of it, but a mainstream version of it. I mean,

00:33:55.700 this is a woman who, as she confesses in the film, is hired by Fortune 500 companies and major

00:34:01.300 government agencies to do workshops for their employees. And calling that fringe, I think,

00:34:06.340 is rather absurd. By analogy, and it's hard to come up with an analogy for the right because

00:34:12.580 nobody on the right has access to those kinds of institutions. But, you know, imagine if Sean

00:34:18.700 Hannity ever found himself in an embarrassing situation. And I tried to claim that he's just a,

00:34:24.300 well, he's just a fringe right-winger. I mean, say what you want about Sean Hannity,

00:34:28.160 he's definitely not a fringe character on the right. And Robin DiAngelo is considerably less

00:34:34.660 fringe than that on the left. After all, the most mainstream thing a conservative can do

00:34:39.860 is host a show on Fox News. On the left, mainstream means that you're doing work for Coca-Cola

00:34:47.860 and Google and Netflix and so on, which is what Robin DiAngelo says that she's done in the film.

00:34:53.760 And that's the kind of mainstream that Robin DiAngelo and her cronies are. And it's as mainstream

00:35:01.020 as you can get. Okay, I cannot think of anything more mainstream. Google is like the definition of

00:35:09.280 mainstream. And so if you're getting hired by Google, then you are mainstream, you're the mainstream of

00:35:16.840 the mainstream. On the left, anyway. So I think McArdle is incorrect in some of her analysis.

00:35:26.720 But still, I give her credit for offering any analysis at all, even a wrong analysis.

00:35:31.480 And it's not entirely wrong. So here's how she wraps everything up.

00:35:35.520 A number of the people attending his workshop walk out as the strangeness escalates. And earlier in the

00:35:40.340 film, he gets kicked out of a workshop that someone else runs. But that happens only after he leaves

00:35:45.160 the room, giving participants time to figure out who he is and reach consensus on expelling him.

00:35:49.720 Most people sit through his provocations because, well, it would be rude to leave or point out how

00:35:54.400 bizarre his suggestions are. That itself is telling, however, because some of his targets are also

00:35:59.420 exploiting those same conciliatory social instincts, which is what makes the movie's jokes land.

00:36:05.020 When progressive activist Syrah Rao monologues about the awfulness of white women to a group of white

00:36:09.520 women at one of her race to dinner events, which reportedly cost up to $5,000 to stage,

00:36:13.620 the faces of the guests foreshadow those of Walsh's workshop participants, the frozen anxiety of

00:36:18.800 someone witnessing a social offense and unwilling to return it in kind. That's also what you see on

00:36:24.580 the face of celebrity diversity consultant Robin DiAngelo when a bewigged Walsh gives all his cash to a

00:36:30.280 black producer as reparations and invites DiAngelo to do the same. I dropped my head into my hands as 0.60

00:36:35.240 DiAngelo went scurrying for her wallet, though I confess I also laughed. Because you can't help think of

00:36:40.960 how many times DiAngelo has been paid for advice on how white people ought to interact with people

00:36:45.460 of color. And some of that advice is only slightly less bizarre and patronizing than suggesting we

00:36:51.180 haul out our wallets and tip them $20. DiAngelo and Rao and a number of others gained money and fame

00:36:56.800 during the Great Awokening because decent people genuinely concerned about America's racial divides 0.57

00:37:01.980 were too polite to point out that they sounded like lunatics. Those well-intentioned Americans had

00:37:06.740 their social instincts hacked, the machinery diverted into a continuous loop of unproductive

00:37:11.220 navel-gazing instead of the racial justice they were trying to achieve. That's what left them

00:37:16.220 vulnerable when Matt Walsh showed up to exploit the same bug. Now, that's her main takeaway, and she's

00:37:23.960 right. What we attempted to do in the film, successfully, I think, is tap into the same

00:37:29.140 exploitation and manipulation methods that these DEI race hustlers use and turn it against them.

00:37:36.740 And if McArdle noticed that, then she understood the basic point of the film, even though I could

00:37:41.980 quibble with some of her analysis, but the basic thrust of it, she understood and is articulating,

00:37:48.520 I think, very well. Her readers, though, are doing quite a bit more than quibbling with her analysis.

00:37:55.340 In fact, they are offended that she's offering any kind of analysis at all. So I perused the comment

00:38:01.560 section on the Washington Post website, and I'll give you a brief sampling, enough to kind of get

00:38:06.980 the basic gist. And as I read these, I'm going to ask our editors to put some sad piano music in

00:38:12.040 the background in order to really capture the vibe of these distraught commenters who have been

00:38:16.960 betrayed by this, effectively, this movie review from a journalist. Here's what they have to say.

00:38:23.320 Yeah, I'm going to give my money to someone who fights everything I support. If he was being

00:38:30.340 sincere in doing the work, that would be one thing. But to pay to see a mockumentary about

00:38:34.760 racism from an alt-right Trumper? To put money in that guy's pocket? To go to see this to,

00:38:40.720 as they say, own the libs as a liberal? Well, that's an easy pass. Another says,

00:38:45.800 my God, the depth of your stupidity and that of Walsh is deeply, truly staggering.

00:38:52.060 Or is it just pure bigotry? Or is it just running a con on suckers for money?

00:38:56.560 We know why moronic movies like this work. It's because they have a huge propaganda apparatus

00:39:01.240 constantly lying to these people. And that includes grifters like you. It's because they

00:39:06.120 were raised by people unconcerned with truth or facts or history or empathy with others.

00:39:10.660 And many were told this was just God's will. We should give a person money who has openly

00:39:15.700 supported theocracy and fascism so we can understand? Should I donate money to Nazis so 0.96

00:39:21.780 I can understand? The next one says, trying to justify and normalize racism has been the

00:39:28.260 goal of the right for years. Now they have a WAPO opinion writer going to lengths to explain

00:39:32.760 racism is okay because the fringe left has some crazy people. Nice try. Another says, so he's not

00:39:39.420 sincere, therefore is a racist and thinks this is all something to laugh about. Why would you support

00:39:44.180 and promote this project, Ms. McArdle? Unless you yourself are happily and openly racist too?

00:39:50.260 Y'all are effing weird. Another says, I didn't know anything about Matt Walsh, the person that

00:39:56.500 created the movie recommended here by Megan McArdle. I would have more respect for McArdle in the post

00:40:01.440 if I had never read this column, if I had never known anything about Matt Walsh.

00:40:06.260 And another says, Walsh's last movie was utterly repugnant. If you paid to watch another movie by him for

00:40:11.740 anything other than science or journalism, you just might have a problem.

00:40:17.820 And one more, this grifter movie has nothing to do with racism. It's about owning the libs and

00:40:23.520 getting famous and rich off the MAGA goobers who will confirm their biases. So pretty much like all

00:40:29.420 the rest of the current Republican cult from the orange leader down. Now I have to say, I really take

00:40:35.820 exception to that last comment. He says the movie isn't about racism. It's actually about getting

00:40:40.120 rich and famous. But why can't it be about racism and getting rich and famous? I mean, two things can

00:40:46.840 be true at once, right? We could kill multiple birds with one stone here. And as for the rest of

00:40:52.160 these comments, the most important thing to keep in mind is that these are people who have not seen the

00:40:58.480 movie. They object to anyone seeing it at all. They didn't even pay attention to McArdle's analysis.

00:41:04.800 It didn't matter what her analysis was. In their minds, she betrayed them simply by watching it.

00:41:11.620 I mean, this is the cult mentality that you find on the left. And although the right has plenty of

00:41:15.500 issues of its own, you don't find anything quite like this on our side. You know, conservatives would

00:41:21.920 not get angry at a right-wing commenter for watching a Michael Moore movie and offering a perspective on

00:41:27.040 it. In fact, you know, if there's a new Michael Moore movie out, which hasn't been in a long time,

00:41:31.260 and people are talking about it and the left is celebrating it. I think if you're a right-wing

00:41:36.540 commentator, you're actually kind of expected to watch it so that you can give your take on it

00:41:40.940 because your audience wants to know. They want to know, like, what do you think about this thing?

00:41:46.840 And indeed, pretty much every movie Hollywood churns out, documentaries and narrative features

00:41:51.700 are made by raging leftists. As a conservative commentator myself,

00:41:55.880 myself, you know, I don't have to worry that my audience will dogpile me if I watch a movie and

00:42:03.120 give my thoughts on it. You find this attitude on the left for two basic reasons. The first is that

00:42:08.760 their worldview is a brittle, fragile thing. It cannot withstand any serious or even not so serious

00:42:14.480 challenge, which means they have to steadfastly avoid anything that might challenge it. C.S. Lewis once

00:42:20.360 wrote that a young man who wishes to remain a sound atheist cannot be too careful of his reading.

00:42:25.880 And the same could be said about a young man or a woman or an old man or woman who wishes to 0.93

00:42:30.420 remain a sound leftist. But the other thing that comes out in these comments and also in the backlash

00:42:36.620 that YouTube reviewer Jeremy Johns experienced when he dared to notice that my movie exists is that

00:42:42.980 many on the left have come to believe that they own the art form of film itself. If you're on the

00:42:49.420 right, you know, you've long since grown accustomed to the fact that, as we just established,

00:42:53.520 virtually every movie you've ever seen was made by people who disagree with you and probably hate

00:42:59.360 you. Leftists have had the exact opposite experience, and this has given them a sense

00:43:03.140 of kind of artistic entitlement. They believe that art belongs to them. You know, conservatives who make

00:43:08.740 art are treated as intruders, as burglars, kind of sneaking through the window in the middle of the

00:43:13.580 night. The only appropriate response is to kind of shoo them away. They don't belong here. Art is not

00:43:20.260 for them. That's the attitude. And it's a delusion that I'm quite happy to break, I have to say.

00:43:26.460 I will say, though, that I did find one comment on the Washington Post website from somebody who

00:43:31.660 says they actually watched the film, and here's what the comment says.

00:43:36.260 Quote,

00:43:36.560 Now, I promise you, I did not make that comment up. This is someone insulting me by, I guess,

00:43:51.200 calling me MLK on steroids. I don't know if he means that I'm like MLK but extremely muscular,

00:43:58.200 or if he means that in a more kind of philosophical sense that I'm like a civil rights pioneer turned up

00:44:03.300 to the nth degree. Maybe he means it in both ways. I'm a muscular, turbocharged, civil rights icon.

00:44:10.720 I can only assume that's what he's trying to say, and all I can say to that is guilty as charged.

00:44:17.280 Perhaps if we do a sequel in the next film, I'll pass around a petition to change the

00:44:20.640 Martin Luther King Jr. monument to the Matt Walsh monument. It's an idea worth considering, at least.

00:44:26.760 So that comment was obviously correct and deeply, deeply rational, I think, but the other one's not as much.

00:44:32.300 And that is why the Washington Post readers who are having a heart attack because somebody watched

00:44:37.660 my movie are all today canceled.

00:44:41.580 You know, there have been a lot of meltdowns over the movie. Many of the meltdowns have come

00:44:46.240 from corporate media, and the rest have come from the audience of some corporate media outlets

00:44:53.500 who melted down because those outlets didn't melt down. So it's all very confusing. But

00:44:59.720 of course, when it comes to left-wing meltdowns, nothing can possibly hold a candle to the reaction

00:45:05.940 early last month to Donald Trump's glorious and overwhelming victory. So our number one

00:45:12.360 cancellation of 2024 takes us on a tour of just some of them.

00:45:17.000 What I'd like to do is close out the show by sifting through some of the more hysterical reactions

00:45:25.260 from the left. We played a bit of MSNBC at the top of the show, but the meltdowns get even more

00:45:30.220 glorious. And I think it's important to highlight some of these because they're hilarious. And I mean,

00:45:37.140 that's really the whole reason. That's the only reason to do it. And I just feel like it's,

00:45:40.120 but it feels like my duty on a day such as today. But before we begin, I do want to make it very

00:45:46.600 clear that I am not a cruel person. I am very empathetic. Now, yes, I'm going to be delighting

00:45:55.100 in the pain and suffering of my political opponents. Yes, I do take great pleasure in

00:45:59.320 their misery, but I also care about them. And that's why I made sure that we continued to play

00:46:04.520 the trailer for my film, Am I Racist? on MSNBC's airwaves this morning. It was a very difficult

00:46:10.040 time for MSNBC's viewers. And I realized that. And so I figured that I'd cheer them up by showing

00:46:16.520 them my trailer. Watch. We officially entered into the fever dream portion.

00:46:24.480 The Daily Show on Comedy Central. And watch next day on Paramount+.

00:46:29.040 Growing up in the 90s, I never thought much about race.

00:46:32.580 What's happening in this country? It's Nazism. Republicans are Nazis.

00:46:35.680 I'm going to sort this out. I need to go deeper on your cover.

00:46:39.700 Joining us now is Matt, certified DEI expert.

00:46:43.320 Here's my certification.

00:46:45.040 What's up with white people? What are you doing to de-center for whiteness? 0.71

00:46:49.180 Who's making it a center? Why are you doing that?

00:46:50.680 And what you're doing is you're stretching out of your whiteness.

00:46:53.780 There's more for you than this for you.

00:46:55.440 Am I Racist?

00:46:56.760 And a screen only on David Wire+.

00:46:59.340 I mainly just wanted you to see the trailer with the MSNBC banner around it, which is

00:47:05.940 just fantastic. Now, listen, I don't expect anyone to thank me or praise me for my abundant

00:47:13.100 mercy and compassion. But they should. We are running that ad on MSNBC, even though we know

00:47:20.000 that not a single one of their viewers will actually subscribe to watch the film. Not a single

00:47:24.860 one. And I am willing to take a financial loss, or at least I'm willing for the Daily Wire to take

00:47:34.280 a financial loss. I'm not paying a dime. But I am willing for this company to lose money

00:47:43.400 just to get that trailer in front of their faces this morning when they're already devastated and

00:47:48.260 hurting. And I'll lose as much of this company's money as is necessary to annoy as many of MSNBC's

00:47:57.680 viewers as we can. That's my solemn promise to you. And it's an act of charity, really.

00:48:03.560 Anyway, now that I've proven that I'm a compassionate and kind person, let's get on with

00:48:07.560 delighting in the misfortune of others. We'll begin with this brief compilation of women on TikTok

00:48:12.300 crying. Now, Donald Trump, we know, is now 2-0 against female presidential candidates, which is

00:48:18.560 just, oh, man. He has prevented a woman from becoming president twice. And that fact is just

00:48:29.200 too much for the women of TikTok. They cannot cope with it. And they're very upset. And don't laugh at

00:48:37.700 any of this. I'm not, this is not about laughing. This is, it's just, anyway, here it is.

00:49:07.700 Somebody please let me know when the blues starts to shift. When does the blues start to shift?

00:49:25.080 Somebody let me know when the blues starts to shift, please. Somebody please let me know.

00:49:28.420 I think we get the, I think we get the point. Um, it's not funny. Don't laugh about that. These

00:49:47.820 people are hurting. They're hurting. We don't, don't, don't you dare laugh. I do want to especially

00:49:56.680 highlight, um, so those are good. But I want to especially highlight this particular TikTok

00:50:01.760 meltdown. Here it is. We may not have rights tomorrow. So I'm going to bed with the last

00:50:12.900 minute dignity that I have last. But we fought a good fight. And if it turns out that, you know,

00:50:20.540 she flips, you know, great. Hell yeah. But right now I'm just not, I can't deal with this right now.

00:50:30.040 She says she's going to bed with the last of the dignity she has left. And, um, I just want to say

00:50:36.600 this. Uh, you didn't have any dignity left anyway. So that's the good news. You can't, you can't lose

00:50:42.240 any of your dignity if you don't have it. So cheer up. Um, look on the bright side. Speaking of having

00:50:48.420 no dignity, there's also, uh, there's also this one. Y'all want to violate my stuff? I don't give

00:50:53.040 a fuck about none of that. Cause all the, all the people that's violating my freaking life right

00:50:56.640 now are Trump supporters. Y'all are the only ones happy about this shit right now. Y'all are the only

00:51:03.880 ones. Y'all see, I got my blue on. I'd have cried so much that my blue wouldn't have. And I have to

00:51:10.720 wear red because this is my freaking job. If I didn't have to wear this stupid ass color, 1.00

00:51:15.600 I wouldn't be wearing it. Trust and believe me. Trust and believe me. I hate red so much in my,

00:51:21.900 right now. I don't even know what to do. I've never hated red so much in my life until now. 0.94

00:51:26.940 I hate red. Hate the fact that I have to wear this color today. I really do. Cause I don't

00:51:32.300 represent Trump at all. Go Trump. Honey, you're going to say, we'll see if you still scream go

00:51:38.220 Trump in the next few months. Let's see. We'll see. All y'all say go Trump. We'll see if y'all still

00:51:44.660 screaming at him. We'll see. Because I bet you, you won't. Cause that mad mother woke up in that 1.00

00:51:50.120 White House. And he about to tear shit up. He about to tear shit up.

00:52:01.140 Well, we can only hope. We can only hope that he tears shit up. That's literally what we elected

00:52:07.340 him to do. That is, it's in the exit polling data. That's what, when they start the exit,

00:52:12.460 when the pollsters stop people coming out of the, what, what, what was most important to you?

00:52:16.800 And I think the last exit poll I saw was 80, 87% of voters said most important thing is we get

00:52:22.220 someone who's going to tear shit up. Uh, so that's the whole point. But if that reaction wasn't

00:52:27.260 unhinged enough, uh, then, then there's also this one.

00:52:32.160 Y'all, I'm scared of going to sleep. I might wake up.

00:52:38.260 Y'all, like, why are y'all Trump supporters? Like, why?

00:52:51.920 Why? Why are y'all Trump supporters? Like, why is this a thing right now? Why is this okay?

00:53:11.820 I can't do this no more. I should have kept my vote to myself. Cause I knew it didn't matter.

00:53:16.500 I knew it didn't. So she's worried. She's going to wake, she's going to wake up a slave tomorrow.

00:53:25.060 Makes sense. Now, as everyone knows, Trump ran on, on, he ran on reinstating slavery.

00:53:30.800 It was one of his core campaign promises. You know, at least if you have the mental computing

00:53:36.740 software of a leftist, that's apparently what you hear when Trump says that he's going to lower taxes

00:53:41.520 and create more manufacturing jobs in America. Meanwhile, the actress Christina Applegate is

00:53:47.120 having a tough time. Uh, her entire entire, entire Twitter pages right now is full of

00:53:51.980 unhinged ramblings, uh, and worth reading, worth reading. But there's also, uh, this one I like.

00:53:57.200 She says, why give me your reasons? Why my child is sobbing because her rights as a woman may be taken 0.99

00:54:04.400 away. Why? And if you disagree, please unfollow me. Now, my favorite thing about this tweet is that

00:54:11.280 she begins by asking Trump voters to explain why they voted for him, but she ends by telling them

00:54:16.860 to shut up and go away. Explain why you did this. Shut up, leave. Now, which is it? You can't really

00:54:23.680 do both. And in between, she tells us that her child is traumatized because her rights are going

00:54:27.760 to be taken away and her child may well be traumatized. I mean, but, but, and, and I'm sorry if

00:54:32.920 she is, but Christina Applegate is the one who traumatized her. I'd be traumatized too as a child if my

00:54:39.040 mom was hysterically screaming that the world's coming to an end and all of our rights will

00:54:44.500 disappear. Now, so far we've only reveled in the manic rage and despair of female Kamala supporters, 1.00

00:54:50.280 but plenty of men are melting down too. We'll get to those in a minute. First,

00:54:53.860 here's one more from a woman. So the election between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris has not

00:55:00.460 been called yet. We do not know who the winner is, but it is pointing in one direction and

00:55:05.400 it's not final, but I just wanted to say that America failed women tonight, primarily. Trump has

00:55:14.820 insulted women, berated them, has been found liable in court for assaulting a woman. And he took women's

00:55:24.540 reproductive rights away. And instead of standing up to that, people voted for it. And 1.00

00:55:32.980 we failed our daughters, our mothers, our sisters, our wives tonight. America failed them. We failed

00:55:45.940 them. It is unfortunately the reality of the situation. So I'm sorry to everybody out there

00:55:55.260 who will be impacted by what may come. America failed women. He says, failed them. Of course, 0.53

00:56:05.180 a whole lot of women also voted for Trump, but they failed themselves. You know what? You failed 1.00

00:56:10.480 yourselves, women. America, Americans failed women by showing that they also recognize the humanity of

00:56:16.340 babies. And in this person's world, it's one or the other. You know, America had to choose babies or 0.99

00:56:23.740 women. And Harry is deeply disappointed that we chose babies, even though to people who are not

00:56:28.860 morally insane, that choice doesn't exist because we can care about both women and babies at the same

00:56:34.380 time. And we did. That's why we voted for Trump. Mike Wise is a sports commentator, apparently,

00:56:41.120 and he agrees with Harry. He tweeted, quote, it's not just that Trump won. It's that Joe Rogan,

00:56:47.320 Dana White, Brett Favre won. Jail insurrectionists won. The Alitos and the Thomases won. Vladimir Putin

00:56:54.320 won. Racism won. Misogyny won. Sexism won. Global warming won. Xenophobia won. Most of all, fear won.

00:57:03.020 That's what hurts. Now, there are about a million other tweets that we could read all with this same

00:57:08.060 tone and message. Who are the real villains in this story? Who is to blame for the loss? The American 0.63

00:57:13.300 people. The people are the villains. They chose racism and misogyny and global warming. How quickly

00:57:18.480 the left went from being valiant defenders of the democratic system to scapegoating it when things

00:57:24.140 don't go their way, which is the most predictable twist ending in the history of twist endings.

00:57:29.820 Now, I think we've probably seen enough, but I do have to play just one more. Just one more,

00:57:34.440 one more. And I know that many of you, you look back to 2016 and you remember fondly that iconic

00:57:41.660 moment of the Hillary voter falling to her knees and screaming into the sky. And you may be worried

00:57:48.320 that we haven't seen anything that quite matches that yet. Well, don't worry, because I think this

00:57:55.100 comes close. I'm sorry. No, no, no, no, no. Why, why, why, why, why, why do you really hate me that bad?

00:58:15.460 Just wonderful. Uh, well, now, now, look, look, uh, listen, uh, the, the, yes, it lacks the spontaneity

00:58:22.940 spontaneity and authenticity of the 2016 version. Uh, this woman had to set up her camera and scream 1.00

00:58:30.220 hysterically, stop recording. So she had to decide, okay, I'm going to scream hysterically

00:58:36.180 now, take out her phone, set it up, scream, stop recording, edit it down, post it. She had to do

00:58:45.920 all that. She probably watched that video back 10 or 15 times before she posted it. She probably did

00:58:51.000 multiple takes. If you were to check her camera roll right now, I guarantee there are like 30 of

00:58:55.380 those videos where she's going for just the right, you know, she had to repeat that 30 times. 0.99

00:59:00.480 And you might say that that makes the mental breakdown less enjoyable for the rest of us,

00:59:04.340 but I tend to disagree. You know, I, I for one appreciate the effort that she's putting into it.

00:59:11.180 It's the thought that counts. Now, uh, let me just say, uh, one more thing before we close out and

00:59:18.300 we've had our, our fun with these videos. Um, we've sipped from the chalice of leftist suffering.

00:59:23.860 We've satiated our thirst with the sweet nectar of liberal tears, but I do want to get serious

00:59:31.040 for just one moment and, uh, and offer a word of encouragement to these people.

00:59:36.060 Uh, it may seem funny to us, but they are truly worried that Donald Trump will be an evil dictator.

00:59:43.620 And I think it'd be irresponsible and frankly, pretty cruel of me if I didn't take a second

00:59:49.180 to reassure them on that point. Um, so, you know, in all seriousness, all jokes aside, um,

00:59:56.520 no, Donald Trump is not going to be an evil dictator. He's going to be a good dictator.

01:00:04.380 So don't worry. Yes, Trump is going to be dictator for life. When he dies, his throne will be passed

01:00:12.400 down to Baron Trump and the Trump dynasty shall reign for a thousand years. But it's all, it's all

01:00:17.980 for your own good. Is Trump going to take away all of your rights? Absolutely not. Not all of them.

01:00:26.700 You'll still have the right to agree with Trump and praise him always. Is Trump going to take away

01:00:31.400 voting rights from women? Again, no women will have the right to vote for, uh, whoever their husbands 1.00

01:00:38.580 tell them to vote for, which will always be Trump. Will Trump intentionally spray more CO2 into the

01:00:44.320 air to cause more global warming, melt the ice caps intentionally, raise global temperatures to

01:00:48.580 tropical levels? Yes, obviously it's only the coastal States that voted against him in this election.

01:00:54.180 And so now they must be drowned to pay for their sins. Um, the rest of us get to enjoy warm summer

01:01:00.980 weather all year round. So it's basically a win-win. So in that way, all of your fears are valid. And,

01:01:06.960 uh, this was all laid out in project 2025. Like you said, it was, it, it was all there. It's like on page

01:01:13.780 one, but it won't be as bad as you think. Trust me in a few months, you won't be complaining anymore

01:01:21.660 because you won't be allowed to. And, uh, I hope that makes you feel better.

01:01:29.520 So there it is. Those are the top four cancellations of 2024. Uh, the good news is that

01:01:35.520 2025 is a whole new year, an opportunity to cancel many more people and places and things. Uh,

01:01:42.900 I'll come out swinging after the new year, ready to, ready to cancel with abandon as I always do.

01:01:47.460 That is my solemn pledge to you until then have a Merry Christmas and a happy new year. See you in 2025.
