Ep. 998 - 'Gender Identity' Is Narcissism By Another Name

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, government officials are justifying their draconian lockdowns by saying “life is precious” and it’s all worth it “just to save one life.” But many of these officials are Democrats and therefore pro-abortion. There seems to be a disconnect here. Also, Five Headlines, including the official jobless numbers from last week. They are historically bad, and that’s an understatement. Plus our Daily Cancellation and an email from someone who wants to tell me why I’m wrong about the arguments I presented on my show yesterday. Check out The Cold War: What We Saw, a new podcast written and presented by Bill Whittle at https://www.dailywire.com/coldwar. In Part 1 we peel back the layers of mystery cloaking the Terror state run by the Kremlin, and watch as America takes its first small steps onto the stage of world leadership.

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, President Trump yesterday compared the coronavirus to car accidents. He’s been mocked and derided for this comparison, but I think people are missing the very important ethical point that Trump was trying to make. We’ll take a deep dive into it today. Also, Five Headlines, including Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden both babbling nonsensically during TV interviews about the virus. And today we’ll cancel a feminist lawmaker who thinks the coronavirus is a weapon of the patriarchy.

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, many of us are worried that our current lockdown strategy is leading us quickly into an economic collapse unlike anything this country has ever seen. But the left wing media says if you’re worried about the economy in a time like this, then you are a heartless Scrooge putting money over people. That’s nonsense. Also Five Headlines including, for a change of pace, rather than toilet paper, an altercation in a supermarket over Mountain Dew. And a listener writes to explain why I’m wrong in advocating that we open the economy back up to avoid a depression.

As the economy teeters on the brink of collapse, and many Americans are already finding themselves having to choose between paying their mortgage or feeding their kids, some government officials are hinting that the shut downs might last many more weeks. President Trump, on the other hand, is suggesting that we should get the economy going again soon. I think Trump is on the right path here. And I'd like to talk about what opening up the economy again could look like, and what steps we might take in order to protect the vulnerable as we get back to our lives. Also, Five Headlines, including Madonna’s insightful video, shot from her bathtub. And in our Daily Cancellation, I cancel yet another media outlet for maybe the most egregious fear mongering headline we’ve yet seen.

With entire states now locking down, the officials making these decisions need to start providing real answers. We need to know when this will be over and what the end game is. Instead we get vague platitudes while lives are destroyed. Meanwhile, some members of Congress have been dumping stocks based on information they receive in private briefings. How can we trust these people and their decision to lock down the whole economy? Plus Five Headlines. I will attempt to find five that have nothing to do with the China Virus.

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, some are claiming that Trump's plan to send stimulus checks to Americans is "socialism" or "welfare." It is neither of those things. I'll explain why. Also, the media has performed shamefully and stupidly during this crisis. This raises the question: in the Age of Disinformation, how can we know who to trust? Also, Five Headlines including the cringiest cringe-fest of a video you'll ever see. And in today's Daily Cancellation, I am, with great trepidation, canceling my wife. I'll explain why.

Today on the show, I have a question that deals with the ethical issues tied up in the response to the China Virus. Lots of people think the response is overblown and will do more harm than good. They might be right. Which is why I hope this question might help clarify things. Also, Five Headlines, including some expert medical advice from the esteemed scholar and thinker Vanessa Hudgens. And the Philadelphia police department has officially canceled itself.  Check out The Cold War: What We Saw, a new podcast written and presented by Bill Whittle at https://www.dailywire.com/coldwar.

Today on the Matt Walsh Show: People fear that staying inside for a few weeks, educating their own kids, and eating dinner at home will destroy our economy. Perhaps it will, but what does that say about our system? Is it time to rethink some things on a fundamental level? Also, Five Headlines, including Tom Brady leaving the Patriots to deflate footballs elsewhere. And Bernie Sanders supporters are whining about voter suppression. But is voter suppression real? And if it is, is it bad? Check out The Cold War: What We Saw, a new podcast written and presented by Bill Whittle at https://www.dailywire.com/coldwar.
