Candace Owens Is Out at Daily Wire, CEO Says
Variety ^ | MARCH 22, 2024 | By Todd Spangler

Posted on 03/22/2024 7:06:03 AM PDT by Red Badger

Controversial conservative commentator Candace Owens and the Daily Wire have parted ways.

“Daily Wire and Candace Owens have ended their relationship,” Daily Wire CEO Jeremy Boreing wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter) Friday. He did not elaborate on the circumstances behind the move.

Owens, who joined the Daily Wire in 2021, could not immediately be reached for comment.

Owens’s departure from the outlet comes after “months of tensions between her and Daily Wire co-founder Ben Shapiro over her promotion of various anti-Semitic conspiracy theories,” according to Mediaite.

More to come.

I was scratching my head after that move.

Do you suppose that Deep State spikes the water of conservative pundits with loony juice? S/

It’s not wise to veer off into anti-Semitic nonsense when your employer is an orthodox Jew (Shapiro).

There is big difference in the following 2 scenarios...

1.) A thug with a gun is coming toward you while holding a child hostage in his arms. You are forced to take action to protect yourself and others so you open fire, accidentally killing the child.

2.) A thug with a gun shoots someone you love, grabs a child and runs into a house. You have him cornered. Since you don’t really care about the child, you drop a bomb on the house. Also....you are aware there are thousands of other children in the house.

Truth be told...I’m not totally against Israel. As long as we call a spade, a spade and play above board, I could agree with them.

They are an invading force.
They are committing a genocide.
They are ethnically cleansing the Levant.

This is all true.

The Arabs are a violent people with a backward religion.
They have an average IQ of 80.
They are dangerous and dirty people.
They would be impossible to live in with.

This is all true.

As long as we all agree on those facts and my country is NOT helping them and my country is also allowed to commit a genocide to establish a white Christian homeland....I could be ok with Israel.

Yes. That is very close.

Except, the titles to the lands were given to wealthy foreigners by the Ottomans or the Arabs or other foreign powers who happened to come into control of the territory at some point. The titles were traded and passed around for political favors for hundreds of years prior to the start of Zionism.

It would be like if the US government said....”We owe so much money to China, they can now hold title to the land where Jonty30 lives.”

Then you paid rent to a tax collector while living and farming and at some point down the road you find the Chinese sold the title to some Russians who traded it to some North Koreans in exchange for some territory who sold it to some Mexicans for pallets of rice.

And here is the kicker....the Jewish Fund which was used to purchase much of this land on behalf of the Jewish settlers, had one rule....The new owner MUST kick all Arabs off the land.

So the Mexican immigrant who was gifted land that was purchased by a Mexican cartel shows up and says, “Leave the land that your family has been living on and farming for the past 1000 years. The cartel gave it to me and they require that I kick you off.”

That is not “the free market in action” as the Zionists would like you to believe.

Having photos of bad conduct on someone wealthy and powerful does not guarantee their recruitment because they are accustomed to being untouchable due to their wealth and power. Indonesian strongman Sukarno famously laughed at a CIA blackmail effort based on staged sex scenes. In practice, recruitment is aimed at those who are in lower ranking government positions with access to secrets and who are anxious, weak, and financially and legally vulnerable.

A close friend of many years was a retired spy and operative for American military intelligence overseas under non-official cover. One of his accomplishments was to help avert a communist revolution in a large South American country, in part through recruitment based on financial leverage that he had secured.

In short, blackmail based on dirty pictures or video rarely works because those can be faked, but getting control of a lower ranking government official's secret corrupt money stash and threatening to expose them as a crook may well work if you have picked your target well.

“civilians” will be those who pass the IDF smell-test of whether they are ham ass or not. This is an imperfect test through which many ham ass members will pass. That is the context of the quotes around “civilians”.

Which in any case points to my expectation that some vast quantity of the people in Rafah will be removed before the remaining ham ass is killed.

Which is quite clearly not the call for “genocide” of which you accused me.

“razing” is regularly required of the IDF in order to defeat ham ass who are documented to hide in mosques, schools, hospitals, houses, pretty much anywhere but a segregated field of battle, because they appear to be pussies.

So, as ham ass continues to hole up in each building of Rafah, I hereby call on Israel to bomb each redoubt of the terrorist rapist baby roasters to smithereens.

If that’s “razing”, you bet I’m for it.

My intentions toward the palestinians is exactly the outcome of America in WWII toward the Japanese and Germans.

Defeat the aggressors in a way that permanently breaks the will of their population to ever wage war again.

I’d prefer that with minimal casualties on all sides. But I think that is the proper objective for Israel in the war ham ass started when they broke the October 6th cease fire.

I support the unconditional surrender of ham ass so that their population can return to their lives. Just like in WWII, sometimes it will take the Dresden, Hiroshima, Tokyo or Nagasaki to drive the point home. Killing every last fighting German down to the last street of Berlin was required. Here’s hoping it can be done for less.

But the decision about that properly lies with the palestinians. They can change their minds.

Israel cannot live with a loaded gun to their heads that promises October 7th over and over, as ham ass promises and their people support.

So, like America’s proper objectives carried out as necessary in WWII, let the bombing of ham ass continue until the proper objective is met.

That’s not genocide. That’s winning a war the other side started.

“A thug with a gun shoots someone you love, grabs a child and runs into a house. You have him cornered. Since you don’t really care about the child, you drop a bomb on the house.”

That has ZERO to do with what is going on! You have military sites with deep underground bunkers and tunnels going for miles between them. The Israelis do NOT have Hamas cornered. They do NOT have the option of just waiting them out or even sending in a team against a single opponent.

We’re discussing armed military sites with lots of soldiers opposing the Israelis. Not a single person with one gun who can be taken with a police action.

Totally false comparison.

“They are committing a genocide.”

NOT REMOTELY TRUE! Not even close! If they were, they’d firebomb all of Gaza. They would not announce in advance where the next battle would be. They would actively TRY to kill civilians.

Please. That accusation is just ridiculous! Hamas wants to kill all Jews. Israel, OTOH, is over 20% Arab. They’ve made peace with Egypt and Jordan - both of whom hate “Palestinians”. They pulled everyone out of Gaza in 2006, often removing Jews at gunpoint. They’ve TRIED a two state solution and the ARABS have rejected it.

So you have a beef with the Ottoman Empire and rich Arabs.

Sorry, but when a new person BUYS land, he has every right to evict the previous RENTERS. That is the way title to land works everywhere.

If you buy a house that is being rented, the renters leave. They don’t OWN THE HOUSE.

I have no beef with Israel owning the land. They bought the land. I was just explaining why the Palestinians thought the land was stolen from them, because Israel kicked them out as required as part of the deal to owning the land. Palestinians were not told this until Israel told them to get out.

“They are committing a genocide.”

And apparently doing a really bad job of it.

Should Israel be attempting to commit genocide, they could easily have bombed every civilian fleeing down the escape corridors Israel created for them. Since Israel didn’t take the easy way of committing the genocide of which you accuse them, it disproves your accusation.

These were tribal peasants living in the desert for thousands of years. They lived under the thumbs of tyrants and their livelihoods were traded like baseball cards among princes and generals.

They thought that THEY owned the land because sometime generations in the past, their ancestors had conquered/settled/planted/built it. Then one day their government said that they didn’t own it anymore and gave ownership of it away to a foreign dignitary.

I think I read somewhere that the literacy rate in Palestine in 1900 was something like 5%. They were basically animals on the landscape.

Seriously...If that happened to you, how would you feel?

If the U.S. government said, “Sorry, whatever ownership you thought you had over your land is void. We gave it away to a foreign country. Now you pay your taxes to them or deal with their punishment.”

Then after a few more generation, the owners sold your land to other foreigners who were technologically/ socially/civilizationally superior to you and ordered you off of it.

What would you do? Would you slink away with your tail between your legs?

The Zionists are invaders. They went from 4% of the population in 1900 to 8% in WWI to 20% in WWII to around 50% today.

The Nakbah was an ethnic cleansing.

Again, I’m not even saying I am against any of it but call it what it is. We did a similar thing to the Indians. But at least we recognize that a lot of what we did was messed up and we aren’t still treating them like shit today.

I still want to know when we can start killing thousands of children so that we can setup a White Christian ethno-state. When can that happen? Once it does, I will start supporting Israel.

They know they can kill thousands of civilians and destroy entire cities displacing 100’s of thousands and if they do it in particular way, people like you will say “it isn’t a genocide because it could have been worse”.

I support the unconditional surrender of ham ass so that their population can return to their lives

Something tells me the little 12 year old boy I saw in a video crying into the camera describing how his cousin's head got crushed and his brains popped out when a building crumbled on him, won't ever return to his life.

I'm pretty sure he will always want to kill the people that fired the missiles that destroyed the building. I just hope he never learns who paid for the missiles.

They either never thought they owned the land - since they paid rent for it - or they were incredibly stupid. Either way, THEY DID NOT OWN IT. Period. It was bought legally. If you rent a home on an annual lease, and the owner sells it, you’ll have at the most 1 year to clear out.

1.) Yes. They were incredibly stupid. Only 5% were literate in 1900. The average IQ in Palestine is currently 80.

2.) They owned the land. You have a lack of knowledge of how things worked in the desert in 1900. It worked the same way it had worked for 1000 years. You are looking at it through the lens of modernity. It wasn’t modern at all.

Tax collectors would come by and take a percentage of their productivity and turn around and give it to the person who hired them to take it. Whether the tax collector was giving the money to the local war lord or the Sultan or the Caliph or the Sheik or the British crown or the Ottomans...the illiterate Palestinian had no idea. They simply gave them the money the same way their ancestors had for 1000 years and kept working on the landscape.

Until one day they were told they had to leave.

Your lack of perspective is staggering.
