Show Notes

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, after the Islamist attack in Australia, France has shut down its traditional New Year’s celebration for fear of violent attacks by Arab migrants. Also, Trump provokes outrage by attacking Rob Reiner moments after he was murdered by his son. The White House officially classifies fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction. And the dictionary's word of the year is “slop." I couldn't think of a more appropriate choice.
