The most consequential failures in American life are, strictly speaking, successes. The speech codes at Yale and Brown did exactly what they were written to do. Harvard's destruction of Roland Fryer required no conspiracy — only paperwork. And on the second day of the Pacific Palisades fire, a thousand buildings burned while everyone followed orders.

My films assemble the record these failures leave behind, with one commitment: relentlessly clarifying reality.

No father to the style. Millions of views. Coverage from the New York Times to Fox News.

The Rob Montz Show: Charles Murray, Cal Newport, Andrew Sullivan, Heather Mac Donald.

This is the least-watched film on this list and the one I'd defend hardest.

YouTube restricted it and never told us why. By then the Wisconsin DOJ had already found that every element of the official Jacob Blake story was false, and nobody went back to say so.

Jacob Blake, Kyle Rittenhouse, and the narratives that hardened around both of them before anyone knew anything. It's three years old and I don't think a frame of it has aged badly.

We're deep in a follow-up to this right now — specifically, where LADWP's money actually went in the years before the fire.
Before that lands, here's the original. The reporting in it is what convinced me there was a second film to make.
If you've got a thread you think we should be pulling on for the follow-up, put it in the comments. I read them.

Everyone's got a story about a guy who fails upward. This one ends with a presidential pardon.

Carlos Watson built a media company on $83 million and a pile of lies, got convicted on all counts, then figured out that the fastest way out of a ten-year sentence was to stop calling the system racist and start calling it MAGA. He walked free the morning he was supposed to report to prison.

Released just a little over a year ago, it's definitely one of our most underrated videos.

Everyone spent four years arguing about one man. We made a film arguing that was the wrong argument entirely — that Fauci was closer to a symptom than a cause, and the machinery that mattered was somewhere else.
Made it in 2024. I'd stand by all of it today, and the Scott Atlas conversation from a few weeks ago is more or less downstream of the reporting in it.

A lot of you found this channel in the last few weeks through our Nathan Cofnas interviews.

If that's you — there's a film in the back catalogue you should probably see. We spent several months on a mini-doc about Charles Murray and what happened to him after he published The Bell Curve.

Same territory as the interviews. Completely different form. This is what we actually do when we're not talking to people on camera.

California was once a pioneer in tough on crime policies. The public repeatedly backed serious sentencing for violent criminals, most famously the three strikes law, which permanently incarcerates people who prove incapable of reform But California had changed. Progressives have assumed full control of every branch of California government and are now systematically dismantling these laws. Their idealism is aiding and abetting criminals

And their campaign has found its most extreme expression in the Racial Justice Act.

Charles Murray, a long-time scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, is one of the most important social scientists of the last 50 years. His work reveals profound, unseen truths about the shifts in American society.

And yet, to the average person, the word they think of when they hear his name is "Racist." Or "White Supremacist." Or "Pseudo-scientist." Murray has been subjected to 30 years of misrepresentation and name-calling, primarily based on a single chapter in his book "The Bell Curve," which, when it was released in the early 90s, caused a national firestorm and propelled Murray into intellectual superstardom.

And all that controversy has obscured what Murray's life's work is really about: it's about "the invisible revolution." This is an epic, sustained restructuring of America into a new class system, not based on race, gender, or nationality, but on IQ, on the power in people's brains.

Iran, a country of enforced Islam, state-sponsored terrorism, and a brutal gender apartheid regime, has found an unusual ally here in America, a place willing to house and promote its propagandists.

That place is Princeton University, which has gladly let its prestige to people who do thinks like: defend Iran's record on women's rights; called the Iranian revolution a glorious moment of utopian possibilities; and claim the country is not, in fact, a dictatorship.

Peer under the prestige and you'll find a place that's so drenched in academic jargon and reflexive anti-Americanism that it's willing to support defenders of a patently evil regime.

How does the single luckiest person of the 90's manage to become a criminal? Meet Prakazrel Michel, a slightly below-average rapper and a man of minimal talents who happened to be high school friends with Lauryn Hill and a cousin of Wyclef Jean. They latch him into...The Fugees, who emerge from nowhere to become the most popular group on planet earth.

Our bro luck out on life. And then he used that geyser of wealth and fame in ways that got him to where he is now: a convicted criminal.

Carlos Watson engineered a mass media fraud. A talk show no one watched. Newsletters no one read. Podcasts no one heard.

And when he ran out of money, Watson started lying. He got caught. And then he whipped out the ultimate weapon, he claimed racism.

It doesn’t work. He’s convicted. And in his most desperate hour, facing a decade in Jail...Watson pivots. He goes full MAGA... and it works.

Here’s how.
