Ep. 1768 - Did USAID Cause COVID?

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, we're now being told that there's nothing to see here with Jeffrey Epstein. No client list. No other culprits. And he did kill himself. We'll sort through the latest on this story, and I'll explain why I don't buy the official narrative for even a second. Also, bureaucrats weep and wail in the street as relatively minor layoffs hit the State Department. A woke DA drops all charges against a registered sex offender who attempted to kidnap a child from a playground. And, Chip and Joanna Gaines produce a new show that features a gay couple with children.

Ep. 1622 - They Want You To Forget About Epstein. Don’t.

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, a foreign socialist is on his way to becoming the next mayor of New York City. Now, a Somali socialist is running for mayor of Minneapolis. This raises a lot of questions, including one in particular that very few people want to say out loud. We’ll talk about it. Also, Democrats in Congress have now suddenly discovered an urgent desire to see all of the Epstein files released. Funny that they didn’t feel that way when Biden was in office. A new band has exploded on the Spotify streaming charts. The only problem is that the band doesn’t exist. It’s AI. And Gavin Newsom continues to moderate his views on the trans issue. His latest attempt to deal with the topic is hilariously clumsy and incoherent.

Ep. 1623 - First New York, Now Minneapolis. Foreign Socialists Are Taking Over.

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, new data reveals that the “raw footage” from Epstein’s prison actually has nearly 3 minutes cut from it. This revelation comes as the Administration and some of its surrogates demand that we drop the subject and move on. We will ignore that directive and talk about the latest today. Also, Elmo goes on an anti-semitic rant on the same day that Jasmine Crockett insists we have to fund PBS so that would-be terrorists in Afghanistan can still watch Sesame Street. It’s been a strange week, to say the least. And false media reports accuse Trump of cutting all spending on AIDS prevention overseas. It’s not true, but why aren’t we cutting spending on AIDS prevention overseas?
