00:00:00.000Today on The Matt Wall Show, the Jussie Smollett trial has reached its dramatic conclusion.
00:00:03.880Today we'll take a look back at this whole bizarre story and figure out what we might learn from it.
00:00:07.920Also, Bill de Blasio defends his new dystopian COVID measures on the basis that if New Yorkers submit to this one last infringement on their liberty, COVID will be gone forever, he says.
00:00:17.760And the trial of Kim Potter, the officer who shot Dante Wright, begins this week.
00:00:21.620Wright has been made into another martyr of the BLM cause, but we'll look at the real man and his brutal and violent history.
00:00:27.000You haven't heard some of this before. It's pretty shocking.
00:00:28.960And Dallas police brag about taking $1,000, rather $100,000 from someone who did not commit any crime at all.
00:00:35.980They just confiscated the money and that was it.
00:00:38.260It's called civil asset forfeiture and it's the subject of our cancellation today.
00:00:42.440All of that and more today on The Matt Wall Show.
00:00:55.240Yeah, and you know, using the internet without ExpressVPN, it's like leaving your laptop exposed at the coffee table or at the coffee shop while you run to the bathroom or, you know, leaving it somewhere when you're at the airport.
00:01:05.040You leave your bags out there, which people do that a lot.
00:01:07.540You shouldn't do it. People do that to me.
00:01:08.700They'll say, yeah, can you can you watch my stuff while I run to the bathroom?
00:01:11.200Well, how do you know? How do you know you can trust me?
00:01:12.920Do I look like the kind of person you can trust?
00:01:14.140You shouldn't do that. And but that's exactly what it's like when you when you use the internet without an ExpressVPN.
00:01:19.540Every time you connect to an unencrypted network, cafes, hotels, airports, any hacker on the same network, they can gain access to your personal data.
00:03:33.080Smollett called the police, not right away, but sometime later, when he was back at his apartment.
00:03:40.220And he still had the rope around his neck.
00:03:42.180We never found out if he ate the tuna sandwich or not.
00:03:44.740This story was, of course, obviously fake from the start.
00:03:48.200Occam's razor would have us select the explanation, which requires the fewest assumptions.
00:03:53.660With the Smollett story, there were two explanations.
00:03:56.420One is that he was telling the truth, and the other that he was lying.
00:03:59.200The truth explanation requires the assumption that racist MAGA Trumpsters live in Chicago,
00:04:06.400and they hang out on street corners at 2 a.m., and they have bleach on standby just in case,
00:04:11.880and they would recognize an actor from a show they certainly don't watch, and so on.
00:04:16.480The lying explanation requires just one assumption, which isn't really an assumption so much as a very reasonable conclusion.
00:04:22.340Is it more likely that all of those implausible scenarios converged, or that Jussie Smollett simply told a lie?
00:04:31.080Logic and common sense would seem to guide you to the latter conclusion.
00:04:35.540And yet, we can't forget that the entire corporate media, that entire organism, rallied around Smollett, as did the entire Democrat Party.0.99
00:04:44.160Were they stupid enough to be fooled by the most far-fetched race hoax of the century?0.99
