Oh I don’t worry about the trolls and mosuitos...annoying but that’s about it.

I would worry if people like coal miners, farmers, ETC get angry with me. They are real people and not pretty sight if you make them mad.

Congressman Steve Scalise would argue with you about that statement.

Dogs & firearms make for a lot of safety out in the country.

Coal miners and farmers aren’t Communists, they work for a living, so nothing to worry about from them.

You’re calling Matt Walsh a “theocratic fascist”?

The internet is a cross between CB radio and party lines...just about worthless and not to be taken seriously.

Not totally familiar with Matt Walsh but I think he was on the anti Trump blog Red State, that recently changed direction to supporting Trump and fired many people, but might have left to The Blaze. Have not really followed him. He might even be at The Daily Caller or The Daily Wire now since The Blaze merger with CRTV as he moved on.

Indeed Matt Walsh was at The Blaze but left a year before the merger with CRTV around the same period that Dana Loesch departed, former commentator on the network. But Matt did not do a TV or radio show but wrote articles and news reports at The Blaze website between 2014 and 2017.

He wrote in October 2017: I’ve decided to move on from The Blaze. It was an extremely difficult decision because I have truly enjoyed my time working for the company. I am and will remain thankful that they took a shot on me three years ago, back when no one really knew who I was and I’d been blogging for all of about a year. I’m especially grateful to Glenn, who I’ve found to be authentic, sincere (extremely rare qualities in the media business), and on top of that, a surprisingly attentive and responsive boss. I say surprisingly because I’d never really had a boss like that. I didn’t know they even existed.
My reason for leaving is pretty simple, I think. My contract ended on Saturday and I decided to take it as an opportunity to explore the next path. I’m not going anywhere or making a career change — I’ll still be writing and ranting and rambling as usual — but I did think it was time to make some kind of change. Actually, there’s a part of me that would like to just get rid of my internet connection, burn the credit cards, and flee into the woods with my family. But I’m not quite at that point yet. I’ll let you know when I get there. Or I won’t let you know because I’ll be living in a hollowed out tree trunk in the forest.

To my readers, I say this: thank you for sticking by me. I believe that out of all the writers, bloggers, and commentators on the internet, I probably have the most loyal readership base. I don’t think that’s an exaggeration, and I’m filled with gratitude for it. I hope that all of you will come with me down the next road, whatever it is, but I also hope that you’ll continue to read The Blaze. I know I will. They have a lot of talent on their roster, and I’m sure they’ll do just fine without me.

Onward and upward, as they say.

Stay tuned.

Where he seems to have run off to was The Daily Wire. Now I think he started at Red State, but could be wrong. In 2014 The Blaze did hire some people from Red State who had left the blog.

So here is his announcement on joining The Daily Wire, though I think since joining he also opened his own blog:
I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve joined The Daily Wire. I’ve been a fan of the site since its inception and a Ben Shapiro fan since long before. I’ve watched at a distance with admiration (and maybe a little envy) as The Daily Wire has exploded onto the scene and quickly become one of the most powerful conservative voices on the internet. I’m grateful to finally be a part of it.

This is a marriage that makes a lot of sense, I think. So much sense that ever since I announced my departure from The Blaze, I’ve received dozens of emails from people insisting that I should, or guessing that I will, team up with the Daily Wire. On the other hand, I’ve also received dozens of emails from people insisting that I should shut up and jump off a bridge. I considered their proposal but ultimately decided that joining The Daily Wire is a better career move.

I want to thank Ben and everyone else at site for welcoming me aboard. I also want to thank my readers, who will accompany me to this new destination just as they’ve accompanied me every step of the way for the past four years or so. I continue to be humbled and a bit perplexed that anyone cares what I think about anything. But as long as God has me in this position, I will always strive to use it to bring a little truth and clarity to a dark world. I know that The Daily Wire is the right place to continue that mission.

I’m excited about what the future holds. That is, assuming the world doesn’t end in the meantime. Either way, big things ahead!

Oh yeah, when lunatics post messages saying they will rape and kill your wife and daughter, it’s all just for giggles and grins, no harm is done.

That was a copy & paste from his very own twitter page. So no I am not calling him anything, as I do not even know who he is.
