MATT WALSH (HOST): I care because the truth matters. It matters more than your ideology, it matters more than your preferences, it matters more than your feelings, it matters more than your self-identification, it matters more than anything. The truth matters more than your life and more than mine.

You know, they say that speaking the truth about these issues puts lives at risk. I've been personally accused of that in many media articles. By saying the things I'm saying right now, I'm putting lives at risk. Now that's obviously nonsense, it's emotional blackmail, but here's what I'm willing to tell you. Even if it was putting lives at risk, I would still say it. I would still say it.
