Inauguration Day, January 20th. Watch it with us. Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles, Andrew Klavan, and Jeremy Boren, live from D.C. Donald Trump's historic second term officially begins. Coverage starts at 8.30 a.m. Eastern. Watch live on Daily Wire+.
Today on The Matt Walsh Show, Pete Hegseth endured a barrage of nagging and screeching during his confirmation hearing on Tuesday. Much of the discussion centered around the question of whether women in the military are held to a lower standard, but there isn't actually any question about it. They are. We'll talk about it. Also, looters are descending on the opulent estates of Hollywood celebrities who evacuated because of the wildfires. And now those celebrities have suddenly come to the revelation that looting is bad. Imagine that. Plus, Mel Gibson has a fascinating conversation with Joe Rogan. And it turns out that I was right about the latest viral outrage, this one centering around a dispute between fans of opposing teams at a football game. Let's talk about all that and more today on The Matt Walsh Show. All right, history is happening, and you can watch it with us live. The Daily Wire will be live in D.C. for Donald Trump's inauguration as the 47th president.

It now appears to be all but certain that Pete Hegseth will be confirmed as the next Secretary of Defense. Republican leaders in the Senate have said as much, and it's not hard to see why that's the case. After weeks of telling us that Hegseth is unqualified for the job, Democrats spent several hours trying and utterly failing to land a single meaningful blow against his nomination. Instead, Hegseth came across as a Christian who's very aware of his own personal past failings. He was also able to put all that into context. Under the leadership of former Raytheon board member Lloyd Austin, the Pentagon carried out political purges in the military. It oversaw a catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan. It terminated thousands of soldiers who didn't wanna take the experimental COVID shot. Those are colossal failings that no one in the Pentagon has ever atoned for. So Pete Hegseth is not a perfect man, who is?
But he is basically a saint compared to the people who ran the old regime. And after yesterday's hearing, no reasonable person can really deny that. So throughout the hearing, Democrats discredited themselves one after another with botched gotcha moments and non sequiturs. And the optics could not have been worse, as particular women in the hearing kept screaming at Hegseth, all while trying to make the argument that women are just as capable of serving in combat roles as men. Now, if there was a way to weaponize nagging so that you could literally nag your enemies to death, they may have a point. I mean, these women could create a weapon of mass nagging destruction and kill thousands of enemy combatants all at once if that was possible. Now, before we get into that particular part of the hearing. in the discussion of women in combat, it's important to set the stage with some of the many blunders that I'm referring to here.
