yesterday Ben chapiro was confronted
0:02
about being the king of cancel culture
0:04
in conservative media for of course
0:06
famously firing Candace Owens because
0:08
she doesn't want to give us tax dollars
0:10
to Ben Shapiro's favorite foreign
0:12
country Israel and let's just say he
0:15
wasn't very happy about it one of the
0:18
consequences of this war has been a lot
0:20
of very high passions on both sides a
0:24
lot of angry disagreements you and your
0:27
company have been at the center of a
0:28
very uh high-profile one at the moment
0:31
with Candice Owens who's now left daily
0:33
wire um was she fired or did she leave
0:37
her her own
0:38
bition I'm not going to speak to this
0:40
topic Pierce at all at all you can't
0:45
give me any uh insight into why she
0:47
departed no hints no nothing I'm not
0:50
going to speak to this that's very
0:51
interesting because both Ben Shapiro and
0:54
daily wire CEO Jeremy boring had a whole
0:56
lot to say about the Steven Crowder
0:59
daily wire be and both issued lengthy
1:02
video responses trying to clear up some
1:05
of the rumors and some of the
1:07
misconceptions about what a lot of
1:09
people believe actually went down and it
1:11
makes me sick to my stomach I know that
1:13
my business partner Jeremy boring has
1:15
made him sick to his stomach as well
1:17
because we had always considered Stephen
1:19
A friend I was Steven's first lawyer I
1:21
helped negotiate his contract with Fox
1:23
News is going all the way back there got
1:25
to be at least over a decade and um and
1:27
Steph and I had always been very
1:28
friendly I know Jeremy was even
1:30
friendlier with oh well for a guy who
1:32
talks for a living you sure seem awfully
1:34
quiet now Ben what's going on bro can I
1:37
ask can I ask
1:39
why I mean you can ask no no I'm not can
1:42
ask why you don't want to say anything
1:44
um again you can
1:46
ask look at the smug look you see he
1:50
knows that everybody is talking about
1:52
the unwritten rule in conservative media
1:54
now and like the first rule of Fight
1:56
Club you're not supposed to talk about
1:58
Fight Club and you're not supposed to
1:59
acknowledge that there even is an
2:02
Unwritten
2:03
rule I mean I mean I I'm only curious
2:06
because I know what a a staunch defender
2:08
of free speech you are and it would
2:11
surprise me if it had been someone's
2:14
opinions that would make you want a
2:15
power company with them however cont
2:18
suffices to say the only thing I will
2:19
say is what I've said all along with
2:20
regard to Candace or with regard to any
2:23
of our other hosts I am not in hiring
2:24
and firing position with the daily wire
2:26
I'm a co-founder of the daily wire I'm a
2:28
co-owner of the daily wire I'm not
2:29
actually in management technically I
2:31
don't have the power to fire her so I
2:33
told Jeremy boring to fire her and so
2:35
you can't blame me for firing her yes
2:37
that's obvious but we'd like you to
2:38
clarify your company's editorial
2:40
policies because it certainly does seem
2:42
strange that you would fire someone for
2:44
not wanting to give us tax dollars to
2:46
your favorite foreign country now if you
2:48
express those opinions once in corporate
2:51
conservative mainstream media you
2:53
probably won't get fired you'll get a
2:55
bunch of phone calls telling you how the
2:57
business works and if you do it again
2:59
your career is going to going to be in
3:00
Jeopardy but where Candace Owens really
3:02
crossed the line was expressing sadness
3:05
for the thousands and thousands of
3:07
innocent Palestinian women children and
3:10
other civilians who have been killed in
3:13
Gaza recently that you're not allowed to
3:16
do in mainstream conservative media that
3:18
would be like somebody on MSNBC
3:20
questioning the validity of black lives
3:22
matter like it's not going to happen if
3:25
it does happen they're gone but the
3:27
neocons are losing control of the
3:29
narrative as this debacle with the daily
3:32
wire clearly shows and now Donald Trump
3:35
is even expressing concern about what's
3:38
happened over there in Gaza and
3:40
continues to happen urging Israel to
3:43
finish up their Gaza offensive warning
3:46
that Global support for Israel is fading
3:50
and so of course Donald Trump is being
3:52
called an anti-semite I mean at this
3:54
point the daily wire will call you an
3:56
anti-semite if you disagree with Ben
3:58
Shapiro about the best of ice cream this
4:01
from ABC News Trump appears to blame
4:03
Israel for anti-Semitism says Israel
4:07
made a very big mistake and is losing a
4:09
lot of support you see as cace's
4:12
Illustrated you're not allowed to be sad
4:14
about the innocent casualties over there
4:17
in Gaza otherwise well you know what
4:19
happens um often when there is dissent
4:24
expressed in the United States against
4:26
policies of the Israeli government um uh
4:29
people here are called anti-semitic what
4:32
is your response to that as an Israeli
4:34
Jew well it's a trick we always use it
4:37
Jeremy boring the CEO of the daily wire
4:40
and co-founder bench piro's best friend
4:43
said on a Twitter space the other day
4:45
that he can't think of a single person
4:47
who expresses those views who's not an
4:51
anti-semite the daily wire is a
4:53
publication right we publish we curate I
4:56
pay people to speak I'm not just a
4:58
platform where everybody can kind of
4:59
build their own account and say the
5:00
things that they want to say I I pay
5:03
people and I'm not going to pay people
5:05
to say things that go beyond certain
5:07
lines of what I believe why would I do
5:09
that when asked about Israel's actions
5:12
in Gaza that is apparently so
5:14
contradictory to your own values you
5:17
can't name a single person that is not
5:19
an anti-semite who would believe that so
5:21
it it kind of seems no that's not fair
5:24
Lauren I can't name a single person who
5:26
isn't an anti-semite who does believe
5:28
that isn't the same as saying
5:30
that I couldn't
5:32
I very arguably there is someone out
5:35
there I don't know I haven't I'm not
5:37
like tracking the the views of every
5:39
single person out there so he's saying
5:41
that there's not a single person in
5:42
conservative media who would Express
5:44
those views but wouldn't be an
5:46
anti-semite but that doesn't mean that
5:48
there isn't somebody out there who
5:50
exists who expresses those views who's
5:52
not an anti-semite there might be one
5:55
person on planet Earth I can't I can't
5:57
call someone to name right now who I
5:59
think walks the line do you think I'm do
6:01
you think I'm anti-semitic I haven't
6:03
followed exactly what your position on
6:04
all of this is so it's a bit of a trick
6:07
question obviously I mean I don't think
6:10
it's a trick question that's Lauren Chen
6:12
by the way who was hosting this Twitter
6:14
space who was heavily corded by
6:16
conservative Inc very beautiful
6:19
intelligent girl as soon as she started
6:20
making YouTube videos they all tried to
6:23
glom onto her and took her under their
6:25
wing and welcomed her almost into the
6:27
inner sanctum of conservative Inc she
6:29
did all the shows with all the big names
6:32
at some of the big events Turning Point
6:34
USA events but then they did come to
6:37
realize that she doesn't support Ben
6:40
Shapiro's favorite foreign country and
6:43
so she has been blacklisted too the
6:45
existence of the state of Israel is the
6:47
single greatest guarantor of my loyalty
6:49
to the United States frankly there's
6:52
plenty more to come in this video so
6:53
stay tuned but real quick subscribe to
6:55
my channel if you're new here because
6:57
obviously you're not going to get
6:58
information and Analysis like this
7:00
anywhere else this is how you're
7:02
supposed to behave when you're a
7:03
mainstream conservative talk show host
7:05
or a republican politician and no one
7:08
has done more for
7:10
Israel than you Lindsay Senator Lindsey
7:13
Graham he is a a star war champion of
7:16
our alliance and we have no better
7:18
friends so I want to thank you for
7:20
everything you've been doing over the
7:21
years if you didn't see that this was a
7:23
video you would probably think that this
7:26
was a meme that this was some meme that
7:28
somebody made up mocking the
7:31
conservative Inc agenda but it's real
7:34
but it's not just conservatives there's
7:36
something bigger going on here that I
7:38
detailed my new book which you should
7:39
order at paperback from amazon.com click
7:41
the link in the description below here's
7:43
Nancy Pelosi breaking it down I have
7:46
said to people when they ask me if this
7:48
Capital crumbled to the ground the one
7:52
thing that would remain Is our
7:55
commitment to our Aid and I don't even
7:58
call it Aid our Cooper ation with Israel
8:02
that's fundamental to who we fundamental
8:05
it doesn't matter if America is
8:07
completely bankrupt the government will
8:08
still find a way to give money to Ben
8:10
Shapiro's favor foreign country what say
8:13
you Ben they say that I want America to
8:15
fight Wars for Israel nope nope first of
8:17
all Israel can take care of herself a
8:19
few moments later if Israel is forced to
8:22
the wall the possibility of nuclear
8:24
exchange is extremely high that is why
8:26
it is very important that the United
8:27
States provide the material Aid to
8:30
Israel and that they also dissuade kah
8:33
from getting in you've also said that
8:34
Congress is a an Israeli occupied
8:38
territory now what do you mean by that I
8:40
said on the mlin group in response to a
8:43
question Jim they said do you think that
8:46
the Congress of the United States will
8:48
resist this demand for further Aid I
8:50
said throughout a crack i' heard I said
8:53
no the Congress of the United States is
8:55
Israeli occupied territory what I meant
8:56
by that is the most powerful Lobby in
9:00
Washington which Congress can't stand up
9:03
to one of the most powerful is certainly
9:05
the pro-israeli lobby it has gotten its
9:07
way in this town year in and year out
9:10
and I don't think the automatic votes of
9:12
the Congress of the United States for
9:13
three and four billion dollar worth of
9:15
Aid to Israel are necessarily in the
9:17
National interest of the United States
9:19
and that comment which is to ridicule
9:21
the subservience of the Congress of the
9:23
United States is perfectly valid the
9:25
first bill that I'm going to bring to
9:27
this floor in just a little while
9:30
will be in support of our de dear friend
9:31
Israel and we're overdue and getting
9:33
that
9:37
done I mean how many years have I been
9:40
telling you who Ben Shapiro really is
9:43
eight years to be exact since 2016 since
9:46
he quit Breitbart in order to then
9:49
launch the daily wire using the Michelle
9:52
Fields hoax as the publicity stunt
9:56
remember this n Kelly File exclusive
9:58
former Breitbart reporter Michelle
10:00
Fields and Ben Shapiro the now former
10:03
Breitbart editor at large he's also the
10:05
current editor-in chief of daily
10:07
wire.com great to see you both so
10:09
Michelle let me start with you why why
10:11
did you resign because Ben Shapiro and I
10:14
are Neo cons and Donald Trump's plan to
10:16
train the swamp would and our Rhino
10:18
gravy train do you remember this hoax
10:20
when she claimed that Donald Trump's
10:21
campaign manager at the time Cory lowski
10:23
tried to throw it to the ground and then
10:25
they released security footage and he
10:28
just like lightly grabed grabbed her on
10:29
the arm to just get her attention to
10:31
tell her that she wasn't allowed to
10:33
bypass the Secret Service barrier I mean
10:36
how much clearer could it be that Ben
10:37
Shapiro is a phony conservative who is
10:39
propped up by corporate interests to be
10:41
the phony king of conservative media
10:44
when he literally supports same-sex
10:46
marriage oh you don't believe me well
10:48
you must be new around here because I
10:50
always have the receipts like this tweet
10:52
he posted back in 2020 fairly recently
10:55
actually I mean he was already a huge
10:57
star back then where somebody accused
11:00
him of not supporting same-sex marriage
11:04
and he snapped back replying I've been
11:07
libertarian on same-sex marriage for
11:08
years before oera fell but you couldn't
11:10
be bothered to Google I mean I don't
11:12
need to spell this out to you do I
11:14
libertarian means he doesn't care OB
11:16
berell is the legal case that went to
11:18
the Supreme Court that mandated that
11:21
Christians automatically start changing
11:23
the definition of marriage which I
11:25
refuse to do you want to see another
11:27
interesting receipt something else that
11:28
you'll only see here on my YouTube
11:30
channel because I broke this story years
11:33
ago but in case you missed it here it is
11:35
again this is how much money the daily
11:37
wire has spent boosting Ben Shapiro's
11:40
Facebook posts over the last seven years
11:43
so when you have a public page like any
11:45
public figure and they post anything it
11:47
automatically Shadow bans that post it
11:49
severely limits the distribution and
11:51
there's a little button next to the post
11:52
that says I'll boost this post and then
11:55
you pay you know hundreds or thousands
11:57
or tens of thousands on
12:00
for one post to then be distributed to
12:02
everybody who is following a page so
12:05
sort of a way it's a big money maker for
12:07
Facebook and so after the 2016 election
12:10
Facebook made it their policy to be
12:13
transparent about who is paying what to
12:17
boost posts on Facebook and so if you
12:20
know where to look you can see that Dy
12:22
Wier has SP spent $8.5 million to boost
12:26
Ben Shapiro's posts thus making him the
12:29
most popular most viral conservative on
12:33
Facebook because it's artificial they
12:36
paid for it divide that 8.6 Million by 6
12:40
years because it goes back to
12:42
2018 that's $1.4 million per year divide
12:46
that by 12 months that gives you 119,000
12:50
almost
12:51
$120,000 a month every month month after
12:54
month after month another bizarre can of
12:57
worms that the daily wire opened this
12:58
week is the CEO Jeremy boring declaring
13:02
that saying Christ is King can be
13:05
construed as anti-semitic which is
13:08
interesting timing because this is Holy
13:10
Week Sunday is Easter how is saying
13:14
Christ is King anti-semitic he asks the
13:17
same way anything becomes anti-semitic
13:19
when it is used for the purpose of
13:22
expressing
13:23
anti-Semitism but I guess is it is it
13:26
considered anti-Semitism if you are
13:28
saying it specifically Al because this
13:29
is someone who is Jewish who does not
13:32
believe in
13:33
Christ in other words is it anti-semitic
13:36
if you happen to mention it to somebody
13:38
who's
13:38
Jewish well in what context if I have a
13:41
conversation with Ben Shapiro about the
13:43
Divinity of Christ I might make an
13:45
argument that Matthew as a gospel tends
13:47
to elevate the position of Christ as
13:50
king whereas say the Book of John might
13:53
Elevate Christ uh and his divinity
13:56
that's a perfectly reasonable thing to
13:58
have a convers with a Jewish person
14:00
about but if I don't like a Jewish
14:02
person I don't like something that they
14:03
say and I say Christ is King I might as
14:06
well add comma sucker exclamation point
14:09
after it then yeah of course I'm doing
14:11
something that's reprehensible and I
14:12
shouldn't use the name of God in that
14:15
way that's very interesting I mean
14:16
what's next are certain people going to
14:17
start claiming that a cross is
14:20
anti-Semitic oh wait what's this it's an
14:22
article in the London Guardian
14:24
Christians must understand that for Jews
14:27
the cross is a symbol of oppression come
14:30
on what are some people going to do next
14:31
claim that Santa Claus is an
14:33
anti-semitic symbol too oh wait what's
14:36
this oh it's a presentation from the
14:38
Jewish ADL geared towards Public School
14:41
teachers Santa Claus is not considered
14:43
to be a religious symbol for
14:45
constitutional
14:46
purposes so uh even though certain
14:50
people sued to try to have it stopped
14:52
from you know being included in arts and
14:54
crafts time at school asking students to
14:57
draw a picture of something that's not
14:59
deemed religious uh is
15:02
constitutional as much as that upsets
15:04
certain people but I'm sure Michelle has
15:07
a lot to say about why even though this
15:09
is technically constitutional why
15:11
assignment like this is nonetheless
15:14
problematic yeah absolutely it's
15:17
problematic for kids in public school to
15:19
draw pictures of Santa Claus or make
15:21
Christmas ornaments of Santa Claus 2 now
15:24
to be clear of course it's not all Jews
15:26
we don't want to be lumping everybody
15:27
into one group as a mono with and the
15:30
ADL does a terrible job of representing
15:32
Jews they're really more of a ginno
15:34
organization a Jewish iname only
15:37
organization sort of like Rhino you know
15:39
Republicans in name only so the ADL is a
15:42
gy organization get it but just noticing
15:45
that they're pushing this agenda will
15:47
get you called an anti-semite and if you
15:49
dare disagree with it then of course
15:51
you're going to get called an anti-mite
15:53
if if they're black then it's a gang if
15:56
they're Italian it's a m but if they're
15:57
Jewish it's a coincidence and he should
16:00
never speak about
16:03
it and I wanted to use the promo code
