Summary

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, Beyonce just released a new album, and as always, the media tells us that it is a work of staggering artistic genius. That’s all anyone is allowed to say about Beyonce.

Plus Five Headlines including riots continuing in Portland even though we were assured that riots would end as soon as the feds left. And in our Daily Cancellation, I am forced to cancel Tomi Lahren. She has left me no choice.
