Is Kevin Costner’s 3-hour Western, ‘Horizon,’ worth seeing? Opinions vary



It’s a rare day when a genuinely good movie comes out — one that isn’t saturated with the woke agenda. But according to Jason Whitlock, Kevin Costner’s Western, “Horizon: An American Saga—Chapter 1,” checks all the boxes.

Why Kevin Costner’s ‘Horizon’ Is a Must-Watch for Every American | Ep 732youtu.be

“This will be the first time I just give a full-throated endorsement of a movie. I loved ‘Horizon,’” Jason says, scoring the film 9.5 out of 10, partially because “there was no agenda.”

“I just got to watch the movie, and I didn't feel like anybody was trying to shove any point down my throat,” he tells Kevin Donahue and Shameka Michelle.

Not everyone shares Jason’s enthusiasm, however.

“It was torture for me,” disagrees Shameka, who hates Westerns in general but nonetheless thought it was “well-written.”

She also appreciated that in the movie “the Indians weren't just these peaceful people whose land was taken over” by evil colonizers.

“It was a classic Western movie,” adds Kevin. “It was historically accurate … the setting was amazing,” and it “[showed] the rough, rugged America we no longer know.”

He does, however, acknowledge that “there were a lot of subplots,” which at times could be hard to follow, and that the film “started off pretty violent.”

Overall, he gives the film a “7 out of 10.”

Jason, on the other hand, thinks "Horizon" is nearly above reproach and is shocked anyone has critiques.

“I am the greatest movie critic in the history of movie critics. I want the audience to disregard Shameka and Kevin when I tell you this is a great classic movie,” he says.

NBA star Dwyane Wade and trans ‘daughter’ create ‘online community’ for grooming children



NBA champ Dwyane Wade and his son turned “daughter” are launching a new program to groom children into the trans lifestyle called Translatable.

The program is in the form of a new online community designed to support transgender children and their families.

“‘Translatable’ aims to serve as a community safe space for youth to express themselves through a number of creative outlets. Here at ‘Translatable’ we focus on communities of color, center the most marginalized, and emphasize the importance of parents and family,” his “daughter” said in a promotional video as Wade stood behind her.

“‘Translatable’ is also a resource hub for parents, families, and support system of the LGBTQIA+ youth. For our family, we were blessed to have a community of supporters and knowledgeable experts who could swiftly arm us with the tools we needed to support Zaya in her journey,” Wade said, following his “daughter’s” message.

Shemeka Michelle believes what Wade is doing needs to be talked about — and not in a positive light like the mainstream media is.

“This website is designed for youth,” Michelle says. “I can’t understand why we are pushing this on young kids. You can’t drive until you’re 16, you can’t vote until you’re 18, you can’t smoke. I mean, you can’t drink until you’re 21.”

“Why are we letting children make such a grave decision so young?” she asks, noting that Wade let his son decide he was a girl when he was only 12 years old.

Jason Whitlock agrees.

“That video legitimately hurt my stomach,” Whitlock says. “How did we get here, where our athletic, alleged heroes, you know, masculine heroes, are the leaders of this kind of delusion? It just upsets me.”

Why Diddy’s apology shows he has no remorse for attacking Cassie Ventura



Days after the release of surveillance video showing Diddy violently attacking his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, the hip-hop icon took to social media to apologize.

“It’s so difficult to reflect on the darkest times in your life. Sometimes you got to do that,” Diddy began in a video posted to social media. “I hit rock bottom, but I make no excuses. My behavior on that video is inexcusable. I take full responsibility for my actions in that video.”

“I was disgusted then when I did it; I’m disgusted now,” he added.

Diddy then claimed he’s sought professional help through therapy and rehab and asked “God for his mercy and grace.”

“I’m so sorry, but I’m committed to be a better man each and every day. I’m not asking for forgiveness. I’m truly sorry,” he concluded.

Host of “Fearless" Jason Whitlock believes the apology was completely empty.

“Very weak; very insincere; very self-preservatory ... very disingenuous. It was all damage control. There’s no true sorrow; there’s no true repentance,” Whitlock explains, adding, “Diddy is obviously copping and apologizing because the tape came out.”

“The man has denied these allegations for years, said it did not happen for years. And now that the tape has been released, he’s been, ‘Well, I can’t lie and say it didn’t happen so let me go out here and put my sad face on and pretend like I’m sorry and issue an insincere apology,’” Whitlock continues.

Considering how much is going on and has been revealed lately about rappers and the rap industry itself, Diddy should be going even deeper with his apology.

“If Diddy’s interests were truly about making amends with the American people and trying to salvage his ability to live in America as a free man, he would become a whistleblower on hip-hop,” Whitlock says.

Not only that, but Diddy has recently come under fire — and was even raided — for his alleged role in a sex trafficking organization.

“We’ve all been sitting around waiting for Diddy to get arrested. It has not happened, and it speaks to probably the level of dirt he has on other high-profile celebrities, politicians, influencers,” Whitlock says, adding, “They’re not ready to lock up Diddy. He might very well actually get away with this."

Tom Brady’s 9/11 joke 'threw political correctness out the window' at WILD Netflix roast



When the woke crowd comes out of the woodwork to yell about a show, you know it’s probably a good one.

This was the case in the roast of Tom Brady, where absolutely nothing was off limits — not even Aaron Hernandez.

“I knew it must have been funny when the people on a certain side of Twitter and sports media, you know who I’m talking about, started whining about how it wasn’t funny,” Steve Kim tells Jason Whitlock.

“I said, ‘You know what, hold on, this makes it a must-see,’” he adds.

During the roast, Brady even made a joke about 9/11 — which has the woke crowd completely up in arms.

“Like the rest of America, I’ll always remember where I was that fateful day in September of 2001, when, tragically, those two Jets … slammed into Drew Bledsoe,” Brady said to roaring laughter.

Whitlock believes it’s a “good sign that people were offended.”

“There wasn’t one ounce of PC in this entire deal. Nothing about this was politically correct, and for that to be transpiring on Netflix,” he says, adding that “this is another one of those moments where I’m like the dam is breaking.”

“Jews weren’t off-limits, black people weren’t off-limits, gays, transgenders, white people, nobody was off-limits,” he continues.

“They just threw political correctness out the window and just went for it.”

Tom Brady just BASHED today's NFL players



Seven-time Super Bowl champ Tom Brady doesn’t hold back on the field — or with his thoughts.

The former Patriots quarterback has some problems with the current state of the players in the NFL, telling all on a recent appearance on the podcast "DeepCut with VicBlends."

“I think the biggest problem with a lot of f****** kids these days, it’s all about them. Their brand, their social media, and then when it’s about me and then not about us, well, there’s no way to succeed as a team,” Brady said.

Brady went on to say that “the point of life” is “how do you help other people finish the race, not just you.”

Jason Whitlock couldn’t agree more.

“I love that Tom Brady, I miss that Tom Brady, I welcome him back to the NFL,” Whitlock says, who has an idea why Brady’s mindset is so different from the youths' mindset today.

“The reason Tom Brady thinks that life and sports are about uplifting your teammates and everybody around you,” Whitlock speculates, “is because his needs as a child were met. He had two devoted parents and an upbringing that he probably thought was tremendous and great.”

“What he’s looking at is a different generation of athletes whose needs weren’t met for either. Their families were torn apart, and their father wasn’t in the home, or their mother wasn’t in the home,” he adds.

Whitlock believes that creates a sense of entitlement in the younger generations.

“This previous generation is more selfish ‘cause they got a hole in their heart man,” he says.

Stephen A. Smith DEFENDS Donald Trump, but is it legit?



Stephen A. Smith is under fire again, but it’s not for a reason one might think. Rather, Smith spoke out in defense of former president Donald Trump.

“Black folks find him relatable because what he’s going through is similar to what black Americans have gone through,” Smith told Sean Hannity on a Fox News segment.

“He wasn’t lying, he was telling the truth. When you see the law, law enforcement, the court system, and everything else being exercised against him, it is something that black folks throughout this nation can relate to with some of our historic, iconic figures — we’ve seen that happen throughout society,” he continued.

Smith then took to his own podcast to explain himself, telling his audience that he was asked a question — and he simply answered it.

Jason Whitlock isn’t buying it and believes Smith is just trying to “build up his YouTube channel.”

“If you’re gonna’ make statements like that, which are very bold, you have to be able to take the heat. And Stephen A. Smith is realizing this is much different than debating whether LeBron James is greater than Michael Jordan,” Steve Kim says. However, he doesn’t have a problem with Smith’s original statement.

“Don’t be upset at Stephen A. Smith for amplifying his own view,” he says, noting there’s a grain of truth to what Smith told Hannity.

As a black man with a platform himself, Whitlock knows that those critical of what Smith said are often guilty of believing that all people of a certain race should hold similar political beliefs.

“Their job is to make sure that anybody black in the public space, we’re all on the same note.”

'You can’t make this stuff up' – March Madness inspires Kamala Harris’ dumbest comment to date



Neither Joe Biden nor Kamala Harris is known for strong rhetoric. In fact, both continuously commit blunder after blunder. But at least Biden can blame the fact that he’s ancient for his long list of gaffes. Harris has no such excuse.

While the VP has said some incredibly stupid things throughout her term, her recent comment about women’s basketball tops the list of the most ignorant things she’s ever uttered.

Jason Whitlock plays a clip of Harris’ “history lesson” on the women’s NCAA tournament.

“A bit of a history lesson. Do you know that the women’s teams were not allowed to have brackets until 2022?” Harris said. “We love March Madness, and even just now allowing the women to have brackets and what that does to encourage people to talk more about the women's teams, to watch them.”

“Now, they're being covered, you know? And this is the reality: People used to say, ‘Oh, women's sports — who's interested?’ Well, if you can't see it, you won't be, but when you see it, you realize, ‘Oh, we're talking about star athletes who are incredibly gifted,'” she continued.

“You can't make this stuff up,” says Jason, who has a translation for Harris’ ignorant history lesson.

“I know the mistake she made here, and I’m being dead serious. What she wanted to say was ... 'Women weren’t allowed to have penises until just a couple of years ago. Lia Thomas, the Penn swimmer, was the first woman with a penis, and it wasn't allowed by the NCAA until 2022.' That's what she meant to say,” he tells Steve Kim.

“If this administration up top was a movie, it’d be ‘Dumb and Dumber,’” sighs Steve.

Roger Goodell’s NFL is soft on crime, big on virtue-signaling



While the NFL has gotten its panties in a twist over tackling, it don’t seem to mind if the players commit legitimate crimes off the field.

In 2007, Roger Goodell was pressured into becoming the law and order commissioner in order to address the bad behavior of NFL players. 17 years later, it’s quite clear it isn’t working out.

Most recently, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice and former Lions defensive back Cam Sutton were wanted fugitives for serious crimes.

Rice was involved in a car chase that led to an accident that put lives at risk. Sutton had been wanted for several weeks in Florida for his involvement in a domestic violence issue before turning himself in.

“The only thing that has changed since 2007 is corporate media and Mike Florio were incentivized to pick new topics,” Jason Whitlock says, disappointed. “NFL player conduct policy, a complete and total failure. Nothing’s changed.”

Steve Kim agrees, saying that the media has given NFL players “not just kid-gloves treatment, but hands-off treatment of those who break the law.”

“We’re not talking about speeding tickets or just moving violations or parking tickets, we’re talking about putting other lives in danger,” Kim says.

Kim believes this is reflective of the social justice obsession that’s plagued the NFL over the past five or six years.

“Crime is now about the past, it is not about individual responsibility. It’s about generational trauma and all these other terms that they’re going to jin up to basically excuse the behavior and place no accountability on the individuals,” he explains.

LSU women's basketball head coach is the biggest villain in the league. And we're totally cheering her on



Jason Whitlock may be an outspoken Caitlin Clark fan, but for the Hawkeye's face-off against LSU, he's is rooting for the Tigers.

But it has nothing to do with LSU's superstar Angel Reese, aka the “Bayou Barbie.”

“LSU coach Kim Mulkey is the real star of women’s college hoops,” Whitlock says, but in the league, she is considered "the real villain" because she's a "force who threatens the left wing’s narrative on all of sports.”

While Whitlock believes Clark is “the most interesting and electrifying athlete in all of sports,” he also believes that “Mulkey is the most dangerous person in sports.”

“She’s the disruptor. The left-wing establishment wants to destroy Kim Mulkey. She’s the real ‘Bayou Barbie.’ The left hates her because she’s the antithesis of their chosen savior, South Carolina coach Dawn Staley,” he says.

While the ladies LSU team prepared for their Sweet 16 matchup against UCLA, the Washington Post published an 8,000 word takedown of Mulkey.

According to Whitlock, the piece framed Mulkey as “paranoid, vindictive, isolating, mean-spirited, and unloving.”

Mulkey and her lawyers pre-emptively threatened a lawsuit over the article, which likely forced reporters to tone down the attack.

The real reason the article was written, according to Whitlock, is because “Mulkey had the audacity to refuse to worship the LGBTQ alphabet mafia.”

“She advised Brittney Griner and other homosexual players to keep their private lives private” and “wasn’t a fan of tattoos” or “constantly changing hair colors.”

“Mulkey, without saying it, clearly believes there’s only two genders,” Whitlock says.

While that may make her an enemy in the realm of women's basketball, she's a hero in Whitlock's eyes.

Debate: Will Caitlin Clark bend the knee to the woke crowd?



As a heterosexual white woman and a Catholic, basketball star Caitlin Clark has clearly struck a nerve among America’s woke sports crowd.

“She’s been the same threat to the left for all of her national championships, and so now maybe she’s more relevant and that’s just because of Caitlin Clark. And Caitlin Clark needs to go win that national championship, and I don’t think Caitlin’s gonna crack,” T.J Moe tells Jason Whitlock.

Moe believes that Clark will just keep her head down and keep focused on what actually matters: basketball.

“She’s not, as far as I can tell, uttered one woke word, she’s from Middle America, she posted a picture of her and her boyfriend, which in the locker room that she comes from is somewhat of a controversial decision,” he explains.

“And so, I actually think Caitlin Clark is too big. She’s so much bigger than women’s basketball. She doesn’t need to bow to the left,” he adds.

While Whitlock recognizes Clark's talent, he disagrees.

“I used to think that you were too big to have to bow,” Whitlock says, pointing to when Patrick Mahomes did “a bunch of leftist type stuff.”

“When I saw Patrick Mahomes fold, it made me say any of them will fold,” he adds.

The talented quarterback jumped on the Black Lives Matter train in 2020 but hasn’t been too vocal about social justice issues since.

Whitlock believes the woke crowd is “not going to give up” on getting Clark on board.

“Caitlin Clark may start selling more gym shoes three years from now than LeBron James ever did,” he explains. “I think she may be with Adidas or whatever, but they’re as woke as anybody.”

Whitlock believes that “once they start dangling that money,” Clark might just have to fold.
