It's interesting. I was a big fan of his but his SuperJew persona was unavoidable. If he could separate it just a little bit I'd think he'd be able to make it work. You can be on the side of Israel, be mad about it all, and still function. He apparently cannot.

It's odd that he's going to risk it all over it. But that's apparently what's happening.

Such a played out overused sheepish term

The level to reach “grifter” these days is anyone paid to state thief opinions.

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.


And yet, in the major issues the past few years, such as covid and the vaccine, she's had a much better record than Shapiro and that is burning Ben's arse every day. I used to really like him and looked to him to be a voice of reason, but he's turned into a huge bitch.

Also, Maher's audience is not moderate. It's not even close to moderate. His audience is still the same group that cheered when he said he was rooting for Americans to suffer greatly in order to increase chances of Trump losing. And Maher is still the same POS that said that, and would do it again, because he's a POS. That's not a moderate position, to wish suffering on half the country.

When people gang up on Candace, all it does is end up making Ben look worse.

The far left and wokesters dislike Maher more than conservatives do.

Shapiro has always been a huge bitch. This is nothing new.

Owens knew what she was doing.

Dailywire is like every other company out there. They've their own bottom line. They are very much in support of Israel.

If you're on cnn and MSNBC, you best not repeatedly criticize wokeness or Democrats too often. Or, you'll get canned. Fox news probably have their own bottom lines as well.

The only reason to repeatedly touch the bottom lines of the company you work for, is if you want to get fired. Because you're tired of working there anyway.

I always viewed Owens as a standalone grifter . One who wouldn't like being ordered around by bosses. By touching dw's bottom line repeatedly, and getting canned, she can paint dw as bullies, and grift her supporters for a few million dollars to tide her over until she can stabilize herself again.

If they don't like him they probably don't watch Maher.

So, who does.......

If you go off script you’re fired. If you aren’t pro Israel you’re fired. Christians are starting to wake up!

No shite, that's why they aren't tuning in to his podcast.

The people listening to his podcast are moderate, old school libs like him.

Shapiro sued the Biden administration (and won) over the vaccine mandate back in 2021.

Not anymore. They've burned through that capital over the last 6 months.

I wish Cooper, Knowles, Crain, and Walsh would leave and let Boring, Klavan, and Shapiro rule their empire of shite.

If Ben actually is the free speech absolutist he claims to be, there’s no way he can have the gag order on Candace. It’s absurd and shows that he’s full of shite. He can fire her, fine, because I’d fire anyone as well on the spot if I found out they were a communist, but not gag them. He should outright debate Candace on Israel as well as he fricking promised.

I’m not the biggest Candace Owens fan, but she’s been wronged here and no I don’t think she’s an antisemite.


agree on all counts

happy to have you back OM

Is she good enough to beat him in a debate?


Candace Owens holds the logical position on that topic. Shed definitely hold her own

Poso and Fuentes dont ring a bell to me. Andrew Tate is just a shock jock that mixes in some good messaging with a lot of bizarre messaging. I dont think anyone takes him seriously

Some people just don’t want to handle the truth about things so they just claim that all she cares about are clicks

What truth?

Her and Tucker both have been trying to appeal to the figs and incels that follow Fuentes

Anyone who uses the term "Gag order" has an agenda, and I'm not some big DW fan.

Contracts are meant to be honored.

It's not a "Gag order". It's a standard non-disparagement clause in an employment contract. The only rights involved are the rights to agree to, and honor, contracts.
