Today on The Matt Walsh Show, on their way out the door, the Biden administration attempted to install a new constitutional amendment just by declaring that it exists. It doesn't work that way, obviously, but what were they even trying to attempt? And how do we explain all of the mainstream and left-wing figures in culture and entertainment suddenly falling in line behind Trump? What does it signal about conservatism moving forward? Talk about all that and more today on The Matt Walsh Show. Today, history will be made. We're live from D.C. as we prepare for Donald Trump to take the oath of office.

Today's the first day of the second Trump administration, which is a sentence that just four years ago would have been hard, if not impossible, to imagine saying out loud. In order to prevent today's inauguration, Trump was, as we know, indicted multiple times, defamed, sued, kicked off the ballot in multiple states. ultimately shot in the head. But against all odds, none of those tactics worked. And as a result, Donald Trump is currently, once again, the President of the United States. Now, there are a lot of ways that you can measure the extent of the historic transformation that this country has about to undergo. You can look at the hundreds of executive orders that Trump is signing today, orders that will enable oil drilling, NDEI in the military, establish the Department of Government Efficiency, secure the border, and so on. You can also look at how our culture is clearly changing, as evidenced by the steady stream of tech executives and celebrities who are now publicly supporting Trump.
Censorship, open borders, political oppression, these are not very appealing to most Americans. And now their government will finally reflect that. But maybe the best way to measure our country's imminent transformation is to pay attention to what the Biden administration did on their way out the door. And the contrast tells really the whole story. With very little fanfare and with no legal authority whatsoever, of course, just days ago, the Biden administration announced that it has the unilateral authority to amend the U.S. Constitution. So they went ahead and declared on the way out the door that we have 28 amendments now instead of what we all thought, which was 27. Now, before I get into the specifics of the amendment that these people think they've added to the Constitution, let's just be clear about one thing. Amending the US Constitution is one of the most difficult and carefully considered actions that can be taken in American politics. The framers made sure of that. It's supposed to require a near total buy-in of the country.
And that's why it's only happened 27 times in our history. If it was really easy to amend the Constitution, as easy as the Biden administration thinks it is, then we'd have 650 amendments by now. And yet the Biden administration, just before leaving office for good, decided to preempt that entire process and give all of that authority to themselves. And they did it at a time when their political capital was at its lowest. They did it after Americans made it very clear that they're tired of this administration and want them out of office. That's the contrast between the Biden administration and the current Trump administration. That's the transformation that we're undergoing right now as a country.
