The former Republican Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich says that “all the anger about illegal immigration” pushed him to publicly make the case for the importance of legal immigration, he told The Daily Wire. Gingrich, along with his wife Callista Gingrich, is set to release a documentary on the value of legal immigration to the United States next month. He says the idea is to highlight immigrant stories that made the country a better place. “Callista and I wanted to make the case for legal immigration with all of the anger about illegal immigration. We wanted a diverse range...

Media Matters known for organizing pressure campaigns against conservative voices it opposes.. Ben Shapiro accused The New York Times of working with far-left advocacy group Media Matters for America in order to get anyone who opposed Kamala Harris silenced on YouTube, supplying screenshots of a reporter who noted he was working with the progressive organization. Media Matters, founded in 2004 by longtime Clinton ally David Brock, is often cited by legacy news organizations as a media watchdog. It has built a reputation for organizing pressure campaigns against conservative voices it opposes, including boycott movements. Shapiro took to social media to...

Ben Shapiro is never one to shy away from a debate, but his latest foray into the arena may take the cake. In a scene that I don't think has ever played out in politics, the podcast host and owner of The Daily Wire faced off against 25 Kamala Harris supporters, and the results were incredible.

I am a very big fan of the podcasters at the Daily Wire: Matt Walsh, Ben Shapiro, Michael Knowles, and Andrew Klavan. I don’t agree with them on everything, but I enjoy their intelligent takes and humor. They and I agree that JD Vance did a wonderful job during the vice-presidential debate, but they all missed how well he did on the abortion issue.When Walz was asked about abortion, he launched easily into the shtick that it’s all about women’s healthcare while boasting about what a wonderful state Minnesota is for abortion. He had to lie, of course, about the...

More state polling is out showing that the presidential race is unbelievably close, which means the debate next week is going to mean pretty much everything. If Donald Trump shows up and mops the floor with Kamala Harris or if Kamala Harris shows up and shockingly outperforms, that could be the deciding factor in this election. What are Kamala’s lines of attack going to be? The answer here is that she is going to have to memorize a lot because she doesn’t have the ability to stick and move. She has no capacity to actually adjust on her feet to...

Here's the main point of the video (excerpt): Douglas Murray: It seems to me, as you well know, that Western Civilization is based on the legacy of Athens and Jerusalem. Athens is under great assault always, but it's not actually under existential assault at the moment. What is being attempted by Israel's enemies is the philosophical and cultural equivalent of burning all the libraries of Alexandria. This is one of the underpinnings of Western Civilization, utterly, utterly at risk—not in a sort of metaphorical way where people might use it as a book subtitle, but in a real way. ......

Candace Owens and The Daily Wire have parted ways after weeks of tension with her co-founder Ben Shapiro over the Israel-Hamas war and her promotion of various conspiracy theories. 'Daily Wire and Candace Owens have ended their relationship,' co-founder and CEO Jeremy Boreing posted on X Friday morning. Owens, 34, reacted to the news saying, 'The rumors are true - I am finally free.' She also shared her personal website for those who want to support her work and teased 'many announcements in the weeks to come,' saying she will bring back her show on YouTube after a brief hiatus....

Conservative commentator Ben Shapiro announced last week to the more than 15 million monthly listeners of his eponymous podcast that he wouldn’t just vote for Donald Trump, he would also co-host a fundraiser for the former president.Because the choices for president are identical to 2020, Shapiro said he would “walk over broken glass” to support Trump. Almost immediately, he had an opportunity. Trump said Monday that “any Jewish person that votes for Democrats hates their religion,” comments that the White House quickly condemned as “vile and unhinged antisemitic rhetoric.”Shapiro, an Orthodox Jew and outspoken ally of Israel, provided a quick...

Daily Wire personality Candace Owens endorsed a centuries-old conspiracy theory about Jewish rabbis drinking the blood of Christians on X last week. Owens has emerged as an outspoken critic of Israel — and then later the Jewish people — in the aftermath of the October 7 terrorist attack. In November, she mistakenly claimed that Muslims in the Israeli capital of Jerusalem are confined to the Muslim Quarter and then feuded with her Jewish colleague Ben Shapiro over the war between Israel and Hamas. “You cannot serve both God and money,” declared Owens in what was widely viewed as an anti-Semitic...

In a recent statement, the speaker articulated a clear and straightforward perspective on the upcoming 2024 presidential election, contrasting the administrations of former President Donald Trump and current President Joe Biden. They began by asserting a belief that America experienced a period of more excellent safety and prosperity under Trump’s leadership compared to the current Biden administration. Acknowledging Trump’s flaws, including criticisms of his character and policy decisions, the speaker emphasized their commitment to honesty in evaluating both his strengths and weaknesses. Despite any reservations, they underscored the importance of supporting Trump in the upcoming election, framing it as a...

Podcast host and former NeverTrumpnik Ben Shapiro explains why he will be campaigning and raising money for Donald Trump's presidential campaign in 2024:

Candace Owens has wagered her career that French President Emmanuel Macron's wife was born a man. The controversial conservative commentator took to X to tout the false theory, hours after outlining it on an episode of her podcast. It goes that French First Lady Brigitte Macron, 70, was actually born Jean-Michel Trogneux, before eventually transitioning at age 30.

his week, Vladimir Putin finally — allegedly — murdered his chief political rival and critic Alexei Navalny. Navalny’s death followed an attempt by Putin’s operatives in 2020 to kill him by poisoning; Navalny survived the attempt, worked with online specialists to unmask the actual agents responsible for the poisoning and then returned to Russia, where he was promptly arrested on trumped-up charges and sent to a Gulag in the far north. Now, Navalny is dead. And Putin isn’t stopping there. This week, the Russian government announced an arrest warrant for Navalny’s brother, Oleg, on unspecified charges; Putin’s agents likely murdered...

During an event on Tuesday, February 13, Daily Wire podcast host Candace Owens spoke out about Taylor Swift, describing the liberal popstar as “the most toxic feminist that’s ever existed.” Her comments came during a “Backstage” event for DailyWire+ subscribers in which she spoke with Jeremey Boreing, Ben Shapiro, Michael Knowles, and Matt Walsh. Beginning, Owens said, “Obviously, if you’ve seen what she’s even done in business and how she tries to manipulate her audiences like to get out of like, deals and contracts, she’s totally insane. Like she’s the most toxic feminist that’s ever existed. And what she does...

In a move that's shaking up the charts (literally), Ben Shapiro has released a rap song with Tom McDonald. For around 30 seconds, the podcaster spits lyrics as sweeping camera shots punctuate the scene. Incredibly, the song is now sitting at number four on iTunes in the rap genre. To be fair, I did warn everyone that 2024 was going to be bonkers. Wait, is the song actually...not that bad? You be the judge, but it didn't take long for the memes and trolling to begin.

Elon Musk went on a private tour of Auschwitz ahead of a day of engagement with European Jewish leaders. A delegation from the European Jewish Association conference in Krakow, where Musk is a featured speaker, is scheduled to visit the Nazi concentration camp on Tuesday. But the tech magnate — who has received criticism for allowing and abetting antisemitism on X, formerly Twitter, the social media platform he owns — instead visited on Monday “due to schedule concerns,” conference participants were told. Musk traveled with Ben Shapiro, the Jewish right-wing pundit; EJA Chairman Rabbi Menachem Margolin, who is affiliated with...

Having condemned the Hamas terrorist organization for its brutal Oct. 7 attack on Israel, Krystal Ball, co-host of the American political podcast “Breaking Points,” figures it is only “morally consistent” to denounce Israel for what she called a genocide against “all 2.2 million citizens of Gaza, and Palestinians living in Gaza.” In the antisemitic tirade, the host doubled down in response to questions from premium subscribers about the show’s anti-Israel posture. “I don’t think you can really cover those details in a way that looks good for Israel right now if you’re being honest,” Ball said. Co-host Saagar Enjeti—who had...
