On Wednesday, June 4, M. A. Taylor, the director of Kash Patel’s jaw-dropping exposé film, Government Gangsters, joined the War Room to discuss the potential for a major cultural and artistic renewal, nationally, under President Trump’s vision.
The Gateway Pundit reported that M.A. Taylor wrote, directed, and edited the most consequential film of the 2024 election cycle in Government Gangsters.
“The film serves as a kind of historic document of all that has happened,” M.A. Taylor told The Gateway Pundit.
“We made a positive movie, because we showed that we can beat the Deep State. The Deep State kept failing, over and over again.”
“Now, it’s up to us to govern,” M. A. Taylor said.
War Room host Dave Brat, while introducing M.A. Taylor on War Room, insightfully said,
“Over the last century or so, the arts have all been deconstruction, critical theory, and tearing apart every great thing in the Judeo-Christian West – to the point that culture is no longer representing the true, the beautiful, and the good. Give us some hope that we are really turning a corner here, in what President Trump is doing,” Dave Brat said.
“This is an exciting time here, because I am a local. I was born in Alexandria, Virginia. My family is from DC. And it’s very rare that we have creative capital that comes to this city,” M.A. Taylor said.
“We have all these beautiful institutions that have been in cultural rot for so long. This is a rare, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, where a president has come in and said, ‘These institutions matter. What they show, and what they display matters,’” Taylor said.
Taylor ascribes to the late, great Andrew Breitbart’s theory that “politics is downstream from culture.”
“I have always believed that art is at the top, and it trickles down to mainstream culture. All of these ideas that we are battling within our mainstream are actually starting in these places like the Smithsonian; like the Kennedy Center. These are beautiful, important establishments. And these establishments really start these ideas that trickle down to all other things,” Taylor said.
“So, it is amazing to come back to Washington, DC, and see all these exciting things happening. To see a president not just take interest, but to go and attend – he loves beautiful culture; he loves art. It’s very exciting to see that President Trump will be taking these institutions back. He will be transforming them to be pro-America, pro-culture, pro-family – all these things are really important.”
“And, this will permeate from DC, and trickle out to the rest of the country – and hopefully, the rest of the world, because these institutions are linked together,” Taylor said.
Watch M.A. Taylor’s distinctive cultural analysis on War Room, here.
Taylor highlighted the success of two conservative titans in championing the arts: Interim President of the Kennedy Center and Special Envoy for Special Missions, Richard Grenell, and editor-in-chief of The National Pulse and investing partner at Washington, DC’s hottest conservative hangout, Butterworth’s, Raheem Kassam.
“What [Richard] Grenell is doing is absolutely fantastic. I haven’t seen the Kennedy Center in such a great shape, in many, many years since I’ve been going there.”
“And then, of course, you have people like Raheem [Kassam], who started cultural movements through his restaurant, Butterworth’s.”
Notably, The Kennedy Center recently launched a rare partnership with Butterworth’s.
According to a recent report from Axios:
“The deal is the latest sign of MAGA’s growing entrenchment in the Washington cultural scene. Butterworth’s will offer 10% off checks for Kennedy Center ticket holders, staffers and performers. Trump moved swiftly to assert control over the Kennedy Center after inauguration, firing its president, naming himself chairman of the board, and appointing longtime ally Richard Grenell as interim executive director.”
M.A. Taylor concluded his cultural analysis on War Room by informing viewers, based on his personal knowledge, that many once-in-a-lifetime cultural events have been planned, as the White House prepares to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary in 2026.
“We are coming up on the 250th Anniversary [of the US], and the White House has some of the most amazing things planned,” Taylor said.
