Shapiro at some point got his soy boy feelings hurt by someone and has not recovered from it.

Not that it makes it OK because I thought it was hypocritical too, but anyone who wears a yarmulke publicly everywhere he goes is going to make rash decisions regarding Israel.

People like Candace Owens only care about driving clicks. Internal Republican fighting drives clicks for her.

The other day she implied that the bombing of Dresden in WW2 was secretly an attack on Christians. She’s trying to make herself the face of the “Christian” right and then play victim.

Her schtick is the same thing over and over. Say something ridiculous/outlandish or imply something ridiculous, wait for people to push back and then claim victim saying “I was just asking questions, am I not allowed to ask questions?”

She’s gross, stands for nothing and only cares about driving engagement on social media.

This doesn't seem very plausible, that she suggested two nations, mostly Christian, carried out bombing another nation, in an attack on Christians. What exactly did she say?

Hes a massive grifter not sure why anyone likes that dude


A few years ago I first learned about him watching his campus debates but since October 7th I have loathed the guy. Looking more into his content, if Israel would pay him the money he gets now and the lifestyle the dude would jet. I tweeted him a back in November on some of his bullshite with no response, I believe it got deleted

Well he openly says that he’s Mr Free Speech™ and I can’t imagine anything that Candace Owens knows about Ben that could be worse for his brand than silencing her. I’m actively thinking about not updating my Daily Wire subscription over this.
Sure. Speak in the way you can to show your displeasure. Cancel your sub., but, contractually, she agreed to the contract, so, she has not been wronged, but she's a victim of her own willingness to sign the contract and take the money.

It did. This is a nothing-burger that conservative enemies of the Daily Wire are still trying to stoke into being a thing.


Tim Pool addressed it and I believe he said that greenwald (who's vehemently anti Israel) broke the story without citing any sources.

I’m on the fence on Shapiro. I’m an Andrew Klavan guy.

If the right wants to let people like Candace, Poso, Fuentes, Tate and company lead the next era of “conservative” politics… by my guest. Just remember, when the ride starts that you bought the ticket

I’m going to technically take his side on the publisher/ private platform argument with the caveat that yes he is undermining said platform and alienating people who he should be working to persuade. And of course he plays right into all the critiques fair or unfair because he is so self righteous . He and Candice Owens backed each other into a corner and both shrunk in size a bit from the exchange. I could easily coexist with both and think they act like children .

Her going on the Bill maher podcast, which obviously draws a majority liberal crowd (many of which are likely moderates that may be willing to listen to a conservative voice these days in light of the lunacy of the far left), and being unable to answer his simple question about the legitimacy of the moon landing is ridiculously embarrassing.

I think Candace is a badass. Having said that, I liked her a lot more before she popped out her frick trophy. Pre pregnancy Candace was a lot better in my opinion but that’s just me

Thanks for posting that tweet. I don't think she's trying to say it was an attack on Christians for the sake of attacking Christians by the US and UK. I think she's trying to say that Christians also suffered during history and is alluding to victims being refugees of Stalin's campaign against religion in the USSR, which does not get much attention.

From wiki: according to some sources, the total number of Christian victims under the Soviet regime has been estimated to range around 12 to 20 million.[139][140] At least 106,300 Russian clergymen were executed between 1937 and 1941.[141]
