Scott Jennings was calling out the real ‘Big Lie’ on Saturday night at the annual dinner of American Experiment in Minnesota. The legacy media loves bringing up their ‘Big Lie’ that references…

Does the “M” in Morgan Wallen stand for “MAGA?” If you were to ask Variety, they’d likely say yes. That’s at least what one of their recent stories about the global country music superstar argued, and fans of Wallen’s – and country music fans in general – haven’t let that slide. Morgan’s 37-track album I’m The Problem released last Friday, and it’s already the most streamed country music album of 2025. Considering the song count on the project, that could be a bit of a numbers game, but either way, I don’t think anybody is going to try and argue against Morgan Wallen’s popularity. The “Last Night” singer is arguably the biggest star on the planet right now (right up there with the likes of Taylor Swift, Drake etc…), and in the past few years, he’s managed to keep his last two albums near the top of the all-genre charts. I’m The Problem is sure to follow… most likely debuting at #1 later this week on the Billboard 200. Fans were certainly excited when they woke up last Friday to a massive collection of new songs. But Wallen fans weren’t so thrilled when they saw a headline about Morgan’s new music from Variety writer Jem Aswad that read: “Does Being a Morgan Wallen Fan Make You MAGA? Why the Country Bad Boy’s Music Is Trump-Coded.” Does Being a Morgan Wallen Fan Make You MAGA? Why the Country Bad Boy's Music Is Trump-Coded https://t.co/80LojTlhs5 — Variety (@Variety) May 16, 2025 Woah. This line in particular from the story seemed the most far-fetched to me: “Wallen has never publicly endorsed Trump, but he doesn’t need to: His behavior and image are indisputably MAGA-coded. His songs might be about drinking and bad decisions and being a bad*** – and defiance about the results of that drinking and those bad decisions and that bad***ery – but it’s hard to separate them from the very Trumpy, middle-finger-to-the-world spirit that his non-musical actions seem to reflect.” That seems a little ridiculous, does it not? So now being “punk” and “anti-establishment” means that you support Donald Trump? Green Day would like a word… Of course, one look at Aswad’s X feed and it’s nothing but Trump hate… After going on and on about Morgan’s “reprehensible” personal behavior, including the the time he “broke Covid protocols,” the article “explores” the messy, grey area of separating the art from the artist… and the moral conundrum that it allegedly presents. He then cites artists like Chris Brown, Jerry Lee Lewis, R Kelly, Diddy, R Kelly, Michael Jackson, Nirvana, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Eric Clapton, Maroon 5 and dozens of others who either have questionable personal lives or questionable material. He concludes this laundry list of musical artists by saying: “We live in an era where it feels like we should do a background check before expressing enthusiasm or positivity about virtually anyone or anything.” I assure you, nobody feels that way… except the virtue-signaling media who has spent the past 10 years pushing cancel culture, telling you what’s “problematic,” and shaming the American people for thinking for themselves. But here’s the thing… not only has Wallen never publicly endorsed President Donald Trump, nothing about his music, his social media, his charitable endeavors, his label… it’s not political at all. Is there a good chance that a lot of Trump supporters listen to Morgan Wallen’s music? Sure. But there are plenty of people who didn’t vote for Donald Trump that listen to his music too. Feels a little heavy handed to just label Morgan Wallen as a Trump supporter, and suggest that his catalogue seeks to serve the president… and pass the same condemnation on his fans for listening to him. Music, like any other form of art, is up for interpretation. There are a lot of musical messages in the modern day, but I don’t think I would have ever lumped Morgan Wallen’s body of work as “pro-Trump.” And while the headline is framed as a question, the big conclusion of the article is essentially “eh, it’s probably best to just put your headphones on and keep it to yourself.” The article (especially the headline), which speaks in a lot of generalizations, sparked quite the backlash… and deservedly so. Weirdest headline and article written by your outlet, congrats — Dylan Farella (@dfarella) May 16, 2025 I think his songs are catchy and I don’t call myself a conservative lol so this headline is stupid. — down into an opinionated rabbit hole (@madteatakes) May 16, 2025 Quit stirring the pot — Mark McClure (@markthetexan1) May 16, 2025 Can we enjoy the Tennessee superstar’s music without seeing red hats????

Book that concert or festival ticket… it’s for your own good. If you’ve been looking for a sign from the universe to buy tickets to see your favorite artists… to borrow a line from Bill Engvall, here’s your sign. A study from 02 and Patrick Fagan – and expert in behavioral science – says that attending concerts every so often could help to increase your life expectancy. The sweet spot actually seems to be twice a month (also known as a fortnight), and the research found that “just 20 minutes of gig-time” resulted in “a significant 21% increase in feelings of wellbeing.” So you don’t even have to stay for the full set if you don’t want to… though your checkbook might prefer for you to do so. Evidently, live music has tremendous power on us humans. And it makes sense, right? I never feel more alive and connected with my fellow humans than when I’m rocking out with thousands of like-minded people. Now that I know there are health benefits (maybe not ear-health benefits) of attending concerts twice a month, I’ll have to start putting more on the calendar. According to the results of the study, the more concerts I go to, the more concerts I’ll be able to go to… if that makes sense. Attending live music events with regularity can apparently increase your lifespan by almost a decade: “Additional scholarly research directly links high levels of wellbeing with a lifespan increase of nine years pointing to a direct link between gig-going and longevity.” SIGN ME UP. If you are skeptical and want some more concrete support for how this study was conducted, I’d be more than happy to point you towards that. The 02’s research found that going to gigs could potentially provide more benefits than yoga or going on walks: “The findings come off the back of bespoke psychometric and heart-rate tests at a range of wellbeing activities – including gig-going, yoga and dog walking. The gig experience increased participants feelings of wellbeing by 21% – with key markers across the happiness spectrum showing increases, including feelings of self-worth (+25%) and closeness to others (+25%) whilst mental stimulation climbed by an impressive 75%. Accompanying research showed a positive correlation between regularity of gig attendance and wellbeing. Those who attend live concerts once a fortnight and more were the most likely to score their happiness, contentment, productivity and self-esteem at the highest level (10/10), suggesting that regularly experiencing live music is the key to building a long-standing improvement to wellbeing.” This is the part of the presentation of research where I like to exclaim, “Say less.” You want me to go to more concerts? And you are telling me the more that I go to, the longer I live? Thus more concerts in total during my lifetime? Finally some good news from a scientific study. Patrick Fagan, an associate lecturer at Goldsmith’s University, capped off the study’s conclusion with this statement: “Our research showcases the profound impact gigs have on feelings of health, happiness and well-being–with fortnightly or regular attendance being the key. Combining all of our findings with O2’s research, we arrive at a prescription of a gig a fortnight which could pave the way for almost a decade more years of life.” Although, I suppose the study didn’t account for the number of beers I’m gonna be drinking twice a month…The post Study Shows That Attending Concerts Twice A Month Can Help You Live Almost A Decade Longer first appeared on Whiskey Riff.

Minnesota Governor (Tampon) Tim Walz addressed University of Minnesota Law School graduates on Saturday with one of his signature stupid remarks by telling them that ICE deportations were “Trump’s Modern-Day Gestapo.” It’s a sick Democrat talking point that proves he and all the other Dems who’ve used it are completely ignorant of history. “Trump’s modern-day … Continue reading “Trump’s Modern-Day Gestapo” – Tim Walz ICE Comments Over the Edge ...
