Now that Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey” has been released to near-unanimous critical acclaim and significant box office success, we’ve been told that all of the criticisms made against the film prior to its release — mostly by conservatives — have been proven baseless, even embarrassing. Those who raised concerns about the movie should now hang their heads in shame and crawl before Christopher Nolan on hands and knees, begging for forgiveness, and offering gifts of supplication like an ancient Greek standing before the shrine of Apollo. 

The Supreme Court just issued the ruling on birthright citizenship that we all expected. This is a decision that could have been a historic victory for this country if Republicans were anywhere near as effective and as ruthless as the Left is when it comes to selecting Supreme Court justices. Democrats pick judges who return victories for their side, in every case, without exception. On the other hand, Republicans pick judges who are preoccupied with preserving the image of the Court as “nonpartisan,” even though Democrats don’t remotely care. They’re going to pack the Supreme Court and destroy the judicial branch the next chance they get. With a handful of notable exceptions — particularly Dobbs — the allegedly conservative justices on the Court have proven to be unreliable and far too timid. And on this issue, that’s especially disgraceful. It’s impossible to overstate this: Today’s ruling will directly lead to tens of millions more foreigners flooding into this country, most of whom wi

This might seem like a deep cut — like some esoteric trivia that no one would ever need to know — but it’s one of the most important historical facts that you never learn in school: The Bolsheviks never won more than 30% of the vote in Russia in any election. They were never close to obtaining the support of a majority of the population. In fact, they were widely detested. As it turns out, Russians did not want to empty their bank accounts at gunpoint and transfer all of their money to the government. They didn’t want the government to seize private property and arrest the clergy. They didn’t want the government to take the grain from the peasants, causing mass starvation. But all of this happened anyway.

I admit that, over the years, I may have engaged in hyperbole from time to time. I’m not going to say that I’ve committed the worst hyperbole of all time — that would be hyperbolic — but I may have exaggerated for effect on occasion. And so when I declare that someone is, quite possibly, the worst leader of a city in the entire history of this country, and possibly in the history of every other country, you may think that this is one of those occasions of hyperbole. 

Here’s a headline you probably haven’t seen, even though it will have more impact on your life (and your children’s lives) than anything coming out of the Middle East: By the time millennials hit retirement age, the typical home in this country will cost $1 million. That will be the median price of a home — not just new homes, but any home — by 2050.  Put another way, if you have a child today, by the time your child is looking for a place to live, they’d better have $200,000 saved up for a down payment. And for the rest of their lives, in all likelihood, they’ll be paying off a debt that’s completely insurmountable.   This isn’t a projection from some crackpot looking for attention. It’s coming from one of the top housing economists in the nation: “Essentially, in about 25 years the national median home price will be a million dollars,” Lawrence Yun, chief economist at the National Association of Realtors, said at a conference in Washington, DC, on Tuesday. “It may be hard to

In the past few days, millions of people in Britain have realized — many of them for the first time — that their government is willing to go to extreme lengths to cover up a murder, as long as that murder involves a white man. To this day, British authorities are hiding critical evidence involving the murder of 18-year-old college student Henry Nowak. No member of the public — not even the jury that just convicted Nowak’s murderer, a foreigner named Vickrum Digwa — has seen the photos and cellphone videos Digwa took, in which he chased Nowak down and mocked him as he died a slow and horrific death. “You’re not going to get away with this big man,” Digwa said as Nowak struggled to breathe. Digwa also said, “you’re not dying bro,” and “you were recording me thinking you’re sick” (meaning “tough”). The judge ruled that the videos are simply too shocking, even for the jury in a murder case.  According to the Daily Mail’s reporting, “This clip was not played in court for being

It’s a deliberate function of our broken educational system that most people don’t know this, but it’s true: White people have been systematically subjugated and discriminated against many, many times throughout history. And very often, whites have rebelled against this subjugation — and won. From the American and European response to the Barbary Slave Trade, to the Greeks’ revolt against the Ottomans, you’ll find plenty of examples of white people who have freed themselves from systemic, targeted oppression at the hands of barbarians. But in history class, instead of going into any great detail on this point, you’re taught about all the heroic, non-white indigenous folks who defeated the evil white colonial powers that ruled over them. That’s how all the textbooks are written. It’s a technique that’s intended to stifle any revolutionary sentiment among white people in the West, as their civil liberties — and even their lives — are taken away, one by one. Based on the events that ha

The overdose of George Floyd was a catalyst for billions of dollars in property damage, thousands of fatalities caused by riots and defunded police departments, an onslaught of systemic discrimination against white people at every level of society, and the decline of major American cultural institutions.A career violent felon with a 90% blockage in his coronary artery — who on the day of his death consumed enough fentanyl to kill an obese horse, tried to defraud a store, then resisted arrest — instantly became a martyr of the modern Left. It didn’t matter that Floyd had no physical injuries to his neck whatsoever, or that the chief medical examiner testified that Derek Chauvin’s knee never cut off Floyd’s airway. It didn’t matter that Floyd repeatedly said he couldn’t breathe, long before he was on the ground. It didn’t matter that Floyd was alive when he arrived at the hospital. None of these facts were relevant because 2020 was a very important election year. It was time for race riots, wh

One of my favorite Americans, who happened to be born before America was a country, is Daniel Boone. Two years after America’s birth as a nation, Boone was in captivity, having been taken prisoner by a Shawnee war party. He was imprisoned for months before making a daring escape, and then traveling 160 miles through uncharted wilderness, on foot and by horse in just five days. He made it back to his settlement in just enough time to warn them of a coming attack. That story alone could be its own movie — and there should be dozens of movies about Daniel Boone. Instead, there have been basically none, at least since the 1960s. But that story is just one anecdote from an absolutely amazing, mythic and yet also real American life. Boone spent decades exploring and charting the wild American frontier. He helped trailblaze the wilderness road through the Appalachian Mountains, which paved the way for settlers to reach Kentucky and opened a doorway to the West. Just 15 miles from their final destination on the

Since the 1990s, America's classrooms have turned Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks into sacred Civil Rights icons. But what if almost everything you were taught about them was wrong?In this shocking episode, Matt Walsh dismantles the mainstream myths about the Civil Rights movement and delivers a history lesson that didn't make it into the public school textbooks. Who really funded the movement? Was it truly non-violent? Was 1950s America the racist hellscape we're told it was? What do Selma and Birmingham look like today after decades of "progress"? And did the Civil Rights Act actually help Black Americans or did it fundamentally rewrite the Constitution in ways we’re still paying for?This is The Real History of Civil Rights Part 1: A New Constitution.Watch now and discover the real history that isn't taught in school.Real History Ep. 4The Real History of Civil Rights Part 2 is available here: https://dwplus.watch/RealHistoryCivilRightsPt2
