Q&A

  • What are the key takeaways from the panel's discussion about the political landscape after Biden's resignation?

    The panel believes that Kamala Harris faces an uphill battle against Donald Trump, despite the Democrats' efforts to portray her as a strong candidate. They highlight her lack of charisma and her history of radical policies as potential weaknesses.

  • What are the main arguments presented by the panel regarding the assassination attempt on Donald Trump?

    The panel explores the potential failures of the Secret Service, highlighting the fact that Trump's campaign had requested additional security. They also discuss various conspiracy theories surrounding the event, including the possibility of a deliberate cover-up.

  • What is the premise of Matt Walsh's new movie, "Am I Racist?"?

    The movie is a social experiment that aims to expose the hypocrisy and absurdity of the modern anti-racism movement. It will feature Matt Walsh engaging with individuals who claim to be anti-racist, challenging their beliefs and exposing the contradictions in their ideology.

  • How does "Am I Racist?" differ from Matt Walsh's previous film "What is a Woman?"?

    "Am I Racist?" takes a different approach by engaging in a social experiment, allowing viewers to see the absurdity of anti-racism through the lens of those who believe in it. "What is a Woman?" focused on the definition of womanhood in the context of transgender ideology.

  • What are the odds of uncovering the truth behind the assassination attempt on President Trump?

    The odds are uncertain, but the lack of transparency and the history of the CIA and FBI raise concerns about the possibility of information being withheld.

  • What are the risks and opportunities involved in releasing "Am I Racist?" in theaters?

    The film presents a significant financial and brand risk, but it also offers the opportunity to reach a broader audience and challenge the left's dominance in the entertainment industry.

  • What are the root causes of the belief in systemic racism?

    Indoctrination plays a significant role, as people are conditioned to interpret everyday interactions through a racist lens, even when their own actions and beliefs are not inherently racist.

  • What are the arguments for and against a brokered convention in the 2024 election?

    Some argue that brokered conventions are a legitimate part of the political process, while others believe that the Democrats' decision to hold their convention late in the process after the filing deadline suggests that they never intended for a brokered convention to occur.
