Matt Walsh Biography Flash a weekly Biography.
Matt Walsh has dominated conservative and mainstream headlines this week after igniting a political firestorm over his now-infamous post-election Project 2025 tweet. The morning after the presidential election, Walsh tweeted to his millions of followers that, “now that the election is over, I think we can finally say that, yeah, actually Project 2025 is the agenda, lol.” According to podcast summaries from Spreaker and direct coverage from Barrett Media, this quip was instantly seized upon by both the right and the left, with critics accusing Republican leaders of hiding their true plans and civil rights groups like the Human Rights Campaign treating Walsh’s words as confirmation that Project 2025 represents the Trump agenda in toto. Walsh responded on The Matt Walsh Show—a daily podcast and syndicated radio program—by reading angry replies on air, playing up his “warm, hearty chuckle” defense, and joking that if people want answers, they should visit Project2025.com, which cheekily redirects to a promo page for his own documentary, Am I Racist.
While Walsh took the outrage in stride, his critics, such as Rodrigo Heng-Lehtinen and Brandon Wolf, loudly condemned what they called an admission of an anti-LGBTQ retributive agenda. Conservative figures like Steve Bannon and Jeremy Carl celebrated Walsh’s candor, with Bannon even instructing his team to push Walsh’s narrative further. The wider right-wing media ecosystem, including The Daily Wire and numerous social media influencer accounts, have made sure the tweet and its aftermath remain central to the week’s commentary threads.
On a broader business front, Walsh maintains a high profile as a top public speaking act of 2025, according to tickets platforms like Vivid Seats, with a busy calendar of live events and improv performances, most recently a Bluebird Improv show in Iowa and more appearances set for the coming months. His documentary Am I Racist continues to be a commercial and download success, and regular episodes of his flagship Matt Walsh Show consistently trend across podcast charts and conservative platforms, with this week’s episodes tackling everything from the aftermath of the Mamdani mayoral win in New York to Trump’s controversial economic plans.
Social media buzz remains intense, with the Project 2025 controversy fueling new waves of trending hashtags, heated debates, and mobilized campaigns urging scrutiny of both Walsh and the conservative agenda he claims to champion. Conservative podcast veterans and critics alike agree: Matt Walsh’s willingness to own, amplify, and monetize controversy makes him one of the most consequential right-wing commentators in the country right now.
