Matt Walsh Biography Flash a weekly Biography.
Matt Walsh’s name has dominated conservative media and political commentary all week, thanks to a viral post-election tweet that pulled Project 2025 out of the shadows and kicked off a firestorm. The morning after the presidential election, Walsh tweeted, now that the election is over I think we can finally say that, yeah, actually project 2025 is the agenda, lol, instantly sparking outrage online, especially among opponents who saw it as proof the Republican leadership had been hiding their plans all along. Headlines on Barrett Media and The Advocate confirm that Walsh’s tweet set both the right and the left ablaze, prompting a cascade of responses from civil rights organizations like the Human Rights Campaign and Advocates for Transgender Equality. Brandon Wolf of HRC called the post a clarion call, saying Project 2025 and the Trump agenda are one and the same. Rodrigo Heng-Lehtinen echoed similar fears, claiming Walsh’s words confirm a retributive agenda that targets LGBTQ+ progress.
On air, Walsh leaned into the uproar with a ten-minute monologue on The Matt Walsh Show, laughing off criticism and encouraging listeners to check out Project2025.com, which redirects to the promotional site for his documentary Am I Racist. According to Barrett Media and The Advocate, Walsh read aloud angry social media posts, joked about his “warm, hearty chuckle,” and insisted his “lol” was not a wicked laugh but meant to lighten the announcement. Conservative bigwigs are seizing the moment: Steve Bannon praised Walsh’s candor on his podcast and directed staffers to amplify the message. Jeremy Carl of the Claremont Institute retweeted it, fueling further buzz.
Business-wise, Walsh’s profile remains high. Vivid Seats and other ticketing platforms call him one of the top public speaking acts of 2025, and The Matt Walsh Show continues to generate significant advertising revenue. His recent Bluebird Improv show in Iowa on May 31 drew an enthusiastic crowd, performing alongside Brad Morris and Joe Canale. Tour dates for the rest of the year show his schedule packed coast-to-coast, with more Bluebird Improv performances and other speaking events like the upcoming ensemble at Roswell Cultural Arts Center on November 5.
Social media is still ablaze with debate and analysis. Supporters praise Walsh’s bluntness, helping keep him trending across podcasts, Twitter, and news feeds, while critics have launched fresh campaigns urging followers to scrutinize the significance of Project 2025 in the wake of Walsh’s tweet. It’s clear that, for better or worse, Matt Walsh’s willingness to court controversy has made him one of the most consequential conservative commentators of the moment.
