MATT WALSH (HOST): No self-respecting country subjects its own people to these humiliation rituals, which is what that halftime show was. People who have self-respect take pride in their own nation and their own flag, especially at their most iconic cultural event, which is what the Super Bowl is. Meanwhile, people who are conquered take pride in other nations and other flags. And speaking of flags, in case you missed it, in the back, there was a banner that read as follows, the only thing more powerful than hate is love. Now the implication, of course, is that if you don't want the Super Bowl halftime show to be conducted in a foreign language, and if you don't wanna watch gay men grinding on each other when you're trying to see a football game with your family, then you're a hateful person. You know, you're part of the problem.
The people telling you this, the people who put that banner up and who organized this halftime show in the first place have no shame whatsoever.
I mean, they've been on a mission to exclude whites from the halftime show for seven years. They've supported a political party that exists at this point to replace whites at a demographic level, and now they're literally spiking the football to celebrate what they've accomplished.
But in the same breath, while they're doing all this and being as explicit about it as they possibly can, they tell you that you're the hateful one. If you object, if you even fail to stand and applaud your own replacement, to applaud as your cultural events, your iconic cultural events are taken over and subverted and used to celebrate cultures that by the way, have nothing to do with football whatsoever.
That's the other thing — Latin Americans have nothing to do with the NFL. Historically, they've contributed nothing to the NFL.
And even today, even today, there's a record number of Hispanics in the NFL. Do you know how many that is? 32 on active rosters in the past year in 2025. That's an average of one per team. And, yeah, we're gonna devote — we're gonna take the biggest football game of the year, devote the entire halftime show to sub to celebrating this culture. Why? I mean, why not have a halftime show devoted to — 20 minutes to celebrating, you know, Vietnam, or Norway, or just any other random country that has nothing to do with football at all?
But you see, only Peruvians and Mexicans and Venezuelans are allowed to have national pride. If you have any national pride, then you're a horrible person.
