Shapiro is no longer a conservative pundit he's one of the few reasonable political evaluators on either side. That's what we need right now regardless of political leanings
+Khabib Nurmagomedov but wasn't the campus public, I may be wrong on this. Furthermore, that's what college is right, to expose you to new, different and similar ideas so you can independently formulate your own thoughts and defenses/arguments on your own world view.
The point wasn't that David Duke shouldn't be invited, rather that David Duke isn't our friend just because the left dislikes him. Have a fun and constructive evening.
I do not care if he is left or right, on a university campus, all points of view should be given a voice. I do not like David Duke, but I would let him speak.
Thanks Alex. I used to like Milo, still do but I realized recently, like Ben pointed out, me going too far in agreeing with stuff just because the left hates it. Milo does a few wacky things and I guess I tolerated it because it infuriated the left but now I realize that isn't good either. I listen to Ben just to keep me clear thinking. I have listened to Ruben and once I heard Sargon but I haven't paid him too much attention. I will have a look.
Have you actually listened to what David Duke has to say? He long ago disavowed the KKK and has never supported violence. He is not a white supremacist according to his own words. Being pro white is not the same as being white supremacist.
I am 17 and am a senior in high school. Today I had a teacher that yelled at me in front of my entire class for not adhering to her political beliefs about transgender people and the supposed attack on their civil rights by President Trump. I brought up many points and studies that Ben has brought up before that rebutted her argument yet she kept on stating that she was right and knew more than me because of her masters in sociology. Even though I pointed to many studies and reports, she continued stating that I was wrong, the sole reason being that I did not agree with her. She continued to ramble on about her history of being a victim, how apparently the constitution does not protect all people, and how bigots like me are hopeless because we ignore science even though I argued her point with the fact that people are biologically born a certain way. After she concluded her yelling she started talking about her vast knowledge in the subject because she is a lesbian, taking on the victim status. She basically spent half an hour indoctrinating my entire class and now many of my fellow students have turned to name calling and threatening me with violence for my political beliefs. What should I do?
I believe "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" philosophy was meant to talk specifically about military alliances to accomplish specific goals, like the Soviets and the Allies in WW2, not about standard political discourse.
Though I'm not a citizen in the UK, I know that they don't vote for a candidate, they vote on party lines. Granted the candidate is approved by a committee, they can flip flop at any time. This made some of their elections batshit insane
Hello guys I'm going to throw myself at your mercy. I honestly just want to know what to do. I'm a 22 year old male I was brought here at the age of 5 from Mexico. Now, before you call me a "taco" or make a few "you gotta go back" jokes please hear me out. I understand that what my parents did was wrong Illegal Immigration is not ok I understand the argument and I agree with it. I've Been in the US since I was 5 years old. I've grown here went to school graduated highschool and I;m now a pre med student. I've made lifelong friends and am an active member of my community I met my wife here and have a baby girl. I've never been in trouble with the law and I have a Huge heart for this country which I consider my home even if I wasn't born here. Id defend it If the need should arrive. I'm a recipient of DACA but with all this uncertainty I dont know what my future holds. I don't think its fair that I could be punished for the sins of my parents. I honestly wish to stay In the US. Do you guys have any advice for me? I was 5 when I was brought here and I honestly consider my self American even if I'm not legally on paper. Any advice on what I should do would help. Thanks for your time.
Drum A You cane here when you were 5, Now your pre-med and you are also married with children? So your age is what? Late 20'searly 30's. So you have been here for 20ish years, and you are not a Permanent Resident? And some how you have been here all those years and after being a Permanent Resident you haven't applied for citizenship? You are either an idiot or a liar which one is it?
For illegal immigrants there are a few options: 1. Marriage to a citizen or lawful permanent resident 2. Sponsorship from an employer 3. Asylum seeker First advice: get an immigration attorney. The process will be long and costly, but invaluable. Now *if your wife is a citizen/lawful permanent resident*, then you can apply for an immigrant visa (green card) which in your specific case as an illegal immigrant, requires you to first leave the country and complete your visa application abroad. Normally, this would take 3 years, but there is a provisional waiver that you can apply for which allows you to return much quicker after a consular interview. The purpose of provisional waiver is to maintain family unity which completely applies in your case since you have a wife and kids. This is all assuming your wife is legally here. *Otherwise, you will have to seek sponsorship from an employer*, which is pretty much the same process. If you are a high-skilled, highly educated person, then you have a decent chance at finding an employer who will sponsor you. It will also require leaving the country first and completing the process abroad. However there is an exception, the LIFE Act’s 245(i) provision, which allows you to complete this process in the USA without having to leave. The LIFE Act 245(i) applies to you if an immigrant petition (I-130) was filed on your behalf or on your parent’s behalf on or before April 30, 2001. *Last option is applying for refugee/asylum status.* Since you are coming from Mexico, I highly doubt this applies, but if you have a "well-founded fear of future persecution (specifically due to race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion)" in Mexico, then you qualify. If you are successful in legally obtaining a green card, I suggest you acquire citizenship status ASAP. The sooner you get things squared away, the better. Good luck to you.
I'm not lying.... Like I stated I'm 22 years old and I just had my first baby shes only 3 months. And I'm saving money to afford the lawyer fees and government cost for applying to become a citizen. My question was that I was brought here as a child and I wan't to be American I'm not some crazy SJW but that is my situation at the moment. WHen I can get deported any time apparently.
Thank you for this comment. My wife is a Citizen and we are working on fixing my status. But my problem is that I'm legit scared that I can be deported for a crime I didn't commit willingly and miss out on my family and my future here. Anyhow thank you for your courteous and not freaking out like most people do.
I have a friend, she worked for 5 years for a prominent Democrat mayor of a major USA city. She was prominent in that mayor's office. She told me the other day that she could ONLY stay friends with me IF and ONLY IF we NEVER spoke of politics. I am a Trump supporter and former dem that voted for Obama. I think sanctuary cities suck and Democratic mayors are ruining our inner cities.
To be fair, David Duke has every right to his views, and any platform that opens for him or he makes himself. Shutting him down via force, public or private, violates his rights and makes whoever did so in the wrong.
Here is my view on "Is the enemy of my enemy my friend." I believe it is allies of convenience, not really a friend. It is just choosing the people that do not have more radical views.
Spicer is a real problem. He's always going too deeply into policy answering. I've felt that he's either painting Trump into a corner or simply unintentionally showing that Trump is bouncing back and forth with his own policies and so causing confusion. But basically this is Trump's responsibility.
Look at it this way. If you walk up to the White House gate and say to the guard 'I want to see President Hillary Clinton." He will reply "Hillary Clinton isn't the president."
Ben! Please, speak a little slower. Evem tough i like the way you organize your ideas. You have fans all over the world! You are a genius and many need to listen to you. Thanks! Love the show.
I see Shapiro is taking the high road and not even touching on the recent Milo happenings. I was looking forward to his 2 cents on the controversy, but now I suddenly realized Ben doesn't want to waste time discussing such abhorrent things. Milo is a great at what he does, a professional provocateur, but his days as the alt-right's token gay are over.
Royal research the things he said and see its not as bad as they claim.. do not get me wrong it was still bad just saying research and see what happens that's what I did with Sweden and holy shit
Steven Demonnin I knew I should have did more research I was just going off someone else's comment/information lol, but damn that proves my point even more.. I myself am highly conflicted on this topic :/
H L Menken posited that it was a juvenile joke and should be shown as such. Remember the death of Mercutio? 6 amazing puns in quick succession. But Shakespeare was a terrific writer so... Queen Mab is so good.
Why can't people just practice critical thinking and decide, by themselves, what to believe based on their own principles they hold to be dear? Why must people, on both sides, wait to be told what to think and who to agree with? Have some confidence in your own cognition and develop it as such.
My default is to fight Trump tooth and nail. He is right for the job his policy will win. If he is lacking the we throw him to the wolves and find another.
Shapiro, will you run for president? You are level headed, which I like. I'm a leftist, but if a republican will be the next president, it should be you.
The left and their increasing absurdity makes it difficult to have a reasonable argument. Nearly impossible. I feel I have no choice but to defend conservatives at any cost, and I'm not even sure if I'm fully conservative. I hate feeling I have to be on one side or the other and must label myself, or worse be accused of being something I'm not for having a differing opinion. But the liberals have gone COMPLETELY off the rails now and I've no choice but to distance myself from them. They are shamelessly ruthless and infuriatingly dishonest! I don't want them to feel validated by giving them the slightest bit of reconciliation when their tactics are ridiculous.
Binary thinking is not thinking. It reminds me of a Gary Larson cartoon of a couple amoeba and one says to the other "Stimulus response stimulus response! Don't you ever _think_?!" Seriously, if you decide whether you like or dislike some policy, pundit, or whatever, you are intellectually little more than an amoeba.
Hey quick question, I have been getting into Ben Shapiro and was wondering what his stance is on Economics. Does he believe in trickle-down economics as most conservatives seem to? Or does he normal just stick to social issues? Thanks for any feedback
Pretty sure he has more traditionally conservative views on economics. I've listened to so much of what he says it kind of blurs together (my problem) but that's what I assume he thinks.
Conservatives HATE trickle down econ. using that shows you are a dishonest thinker. Read Milton Friedman and F A Hyaek. I think that will give you a better idea.
You are changing definitions then. Trickle down is lord bountiful lives in a neighborhood and his spending on himself gets passed through the neighborhood. This is a perversion of the Keynesian model. The Keynesian model does work, and Friedman would acknowledge that. But Trickle down does not. Trickle up works because it aids in production. Trickle down is just frivolous consumption.
Damn, by no means am I one for a very progressive stance and take on a socialist approach but I am no fan of the conservative idea either. Thanks for answering me though.
Hence the reason I approach Milo from arms length. The man has the moral compass that is similar to Hollywood. He's sick and deranged in a lot of ways. However much I agree with some of his points(he is conservative), I cannot get behind him.
HR was my brothers troop commander in desert storm Troop E 2nd ACR Everything Ben is saying about him is spot on, stellar human being - check out the battle of 73 eastings on TH-cam
Yes it made inviting the speaker worth while, inviting people with different opinions should be the basis of universities. Who are you to determine when the 1st amendment ends? Disagree with the speaker all you want, protest as well, but actual riots over free speech is wrong, and you're wrong on this statement.
I really don't know enough about David Duke's positions to defend him by any means, but isn't it actually true that Jewish people own most of the banking and mainstream media institutions? Judaism is a little tricky because it's an ideology as well as a race, but if you can show that there's some ideological hegemony there is it a discussion that's inherently racist?
A Mir I agree, there are certainly different denominations in all religions with very different interpretations of their core doctrines. And I'm not saying ideological Judaism is necessarily causing problems, but I'm asking whether it's racist to have that discussion. Ben seems to suggest it is here.
I think the speaker should have the option to speak, and thus against the protestors, especially if shown violent. At the same time, I think say Islamists can speak on campuses and so forth, even thou they might use derogatory language about homosexuals, Jews, women whatever. The line is drawn when one promote violence. Preferably I would like such speakers having a bunch of students who just asks critical questions, instead of protesting. It's important cause they may have to deal with such people in their career.
Yeah, we know who the enemy is, and we have good memories, Ben. Controlled opposition and pacing your audience for when it matters IE election time or taking down someone important to a new movement not controlled by typical left and right politics. Any good liar needs to put truth in the goods like putting cheese on a mousetrap. You're a good debater but not effective at resisting Saudi money.
Also Ben I stand for Free Speech, no matter who it is, with a few exceptions like during a declared war. Example: Nazi free speech bad in WWII when we are fighting Nazis, but in peacetime it is ok. Why in peacetime? Because the left views Ben Shapiro as a Nazi / Fascist. They don't care that you are Jewish, because their definition of Nazism is anyone who disagrees with them. Simply acting like you are above it all, is frankly crap and won't convince anyone to side with you. I don't want allies like that...who crack and become McMuffin supporters.
Where are these conservatives you are talking about? I am worried you are pissed at Milo, pissed that Milo was invited to CPAC (which he shouldn't have been in my opinion), pissed that Milo seems to have stained his image and in turn "the right", and angry at "us" (the internet viewers) because some people supported him. If this is all true, I think you are pretty much spot on on some of that, but don't let it turn u inside out against your own party. We need you fighting on our side.....
Sometimes I wish I could hate Trump like Liberals hate Trump. I don't necessarily mean perpetuate the liberal hyperbole, but rationally hate him. I tried, but I can't. The left makes me hate them, and I'm not even a Conservative either. The anti-PC, anti-Establishment, anti-Corporate media is too much of a pull. It's why I thought Bernie was a good candidate... until he endorsed Clinton. But the need to conform to the left is so strong because you get bullied and harassed for even being objective about Trump.
Shapiro is no longer a conservative pundit he's one of the few reasonable political evaluators on either side. That's what we need right now regardless of political leanings
Yep I was guilty of saying yes to his first question.
I could see him running for office under the Libertarian party. I would also vote for him.
I wanna see a move to get the libertarians in the 2020 debates for president
Definitely,it's sad there are so few, crowder is getting there though.
PH 1 hell no. While I like Shapiro his religion is exclusionist and racist.
Imagine if thousands protested for every drive-by shooting or armed robbery?
it dosn't matter David Duke should be allowed to speak I don't agree isn't a valid reason for censor.
Faque As long as he doesn't call for active violence yeah he can
I don't understand why so many are anti opinion.
+Khabib Nurmagomedov but wasn't the campus public, I may be wrong on this. Furthermore, that's what college is right, to expose you to new, different and similar ideas so you can independently formulate your own thoughts and defenses/arguments on your own world view.
The point wasn't that David Duke shouldn't be invited, rather that David Duke isn't our friend just because the left dislikes him. Have a fun and constructive evening.
+Sophz Last Groove Thank you. Ben *obviously* was not advocating censorship and it seems ridiculous that anyone came to that conclusion.
Forgot the "e" in "The" in the title lmao
lol fake title! fake information! finally we caught shapiro!
Where?
Amazing opening.
Jesus CHRIST this guy is good
Errr..... Moses?
Steven Demonnin lol
Methuselah!
I do not care if he is left or right, on a university campus, all points of view should be given a voice. I do not like David Duke, but I would let him speak.
Exactly. My opinion on whether the speaker should be allowed to speak did not change.
Great words of wisdom. Is there another person in the political sphere as logical and clear thinking as Ben?
Mandark Astronomonov sargon of akkad, dave ruben, theyre not as smart but they do analyze both sides pretty well
Thanks Alex. I used to like Milo, still do but I realized recently, like Ben pointed out, me going too far in agreeing with stuff just because the left hates it. Milo does a few wacky things and I guess I tolerated it because it infuriated the left but now I realize that isn't good either. I listen to Ben just to keep me clear thinking. I have listened to Ruben and once I heard Sargon but I haven't paid him too much attention. I will have a look.
There was: Christopher Hitchens.
Voltaire's quote is more relevant than ever! "I may disagree with what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
he's not only talking about David Duke. he's trying to indirectly make his audience see the light about Milo.
Ben Shapiro is a one of VERY FEW journalists that cares not for political bias.... but for facts.
dude, I just wanna say, I love how even your sponsor parts/ads are smooth as butter
This is so accurate and forceful that most people will ignore it. I.e. it means you need to think and research facts. Feelings don't matter.
shapiro for prez
alex15295 he's never gonna run, he doesn't want to be president
This guy would walk over the whole of the UK, Tory and Labour. He talks sense, as for Western Politics........ well
I decided that the speaker had something valuable to say because he was invited by the university. Melting snowflakes was just icing on the cake!
// Good call, Ben. If you're constantly pissing off the enemy you're not going to have a conversation! Thanks for saying it.
I hate David Duke, but he has every right to speak.
Have you actually listened to what David Duke has to say? He long ago disavowed the KKK and has never supported violence. He is not a white supremacist according to his own words. Being pro white is not the same as being white supremacist.
The most brilliant I have heard this week.
I am 17 and am a senior in high school. Today I had a teacher that yelled at me in front of my entire class for not adhering to her political beliefs about transgender people and the supposed attack on their civil rights by President Trump. I brought up many points and studies that Ben has brought up before that rebutted her argument yet she kept on stating that she was right and knew more than me because of her masters in sociology. Even though I pointed to many studies and reports, she continued stating that I was wrong, the sole reason being that I did not agree with her. She continued to ramble on about her history of being a victim, how apparently the constitution does not protect all people, and how bigots like me are hopeless because we ignore science even though I argued her point with the fact that people are biologically born a certain way. After she concluded her yelling she started talking about her vast knowledge in the subject because she is a lesbian, taking on the victim status. She basically spent half an hour indoctrinating my entire class and now many of my fellow students have turned to name calling and threatening me with violence for my political beliefs. What should I do?
Endless Wings go to different school.
HEY ILL HAVE YOU KNOW MAC'N CHEESE FROM A BOX IS DELICIOUS!!!
Thank you, Ben for keeping truth as a check to blind support to anti-leftist ranters.
Where's Futurama's "Old Man Waterfall" when you need him?
Good thing to remember!
Thank you for opening my eyes Ben!
When Scott Pruitt talks he looks and sounds like George W. Bush, up to that smile at 11:05
Ben Shapiro should have been invited to CPAC.
Ben is so good at reading advertisement copies lol
Good Ben: Talking politics
Bad Ben: Talking advertisements
I believe "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" philosophy was meant to talk specifically about military alliances to accomplish specific goals, like the Soviets and the Allies in WW2, not about standard political discourse.
Yes, Kekistan is our friend
No matter my feeling about Mr. Duke he should still have the right to speak. Who is to say what is worth the trouble?
Though I'm not a citizen in the UK, I know that they don't vote for a candidate, they vote on party lines. Granted the candidate is approved by a committee, they can flip flop at any time. This made some of their elections batshit insane
we should fight the enemy of our enemy once our enemy is dead
Solid opening statement sir. I think that Trump not cowering to criticism that helped him too.
I loathe the slogan "the Enemy of our enemy is our Friend"?
It's the worst bullshit people came up to justify working with some other evil...
I read the article in national review, shit was spot on.

nice one Ben
The new hit reality show president Trump.Gotta admit its getting entertaining.
fuuuck ya got me on that one. i must remember this
David Duke still has the right to speak, regardless if he is our friend or not that is irrelevant.
I disagree that the assumption at the beginning was a result of bias. If it's a predictable trend, then it's just a result of pattern recognition
good opening
I have a friend, she worked for 5 years for a prominent Democrat mayor of a major USA city. She was prominent in that mayor's office. She told me the other day that she could ONLY stay friends with me IF and ONLY IF we NEVER spoke of politics. I am a Trump supporter and former dem that voted for Obama.

To be fair, David Duke has every right to his views, and any platform that opens for him or he makes himself. Shutting him down via force, public or private, violates his rights and makes whoever did so in the wrong.
Here is my view on "Is the enemy of my enemy my friend." I believe it is allies of convenience, not really a friend. It is just choosing the people that do not have more radical views.
I would still support David Duke's right to speak.
Freedom if speech is not a difficult concept. The implementation is somewhat more difficult
Whoa, nice intro, it actually got me to be honest.
THE Ben Shapiro Show
Here's how you fix the Transgender bathroom problem
You make 3 bathrooms, 1 for males, 1 for females and one for both genders.
Boom done.
This was already true in 2009/2010 with the tea party.
Your my hero Ben
Jesus, is it really so much trouble to go to the store, buy some chicken, some veggies and make soup?? Blue Apron, my ass.
Where's his statement on Milo? One would think he's been waiting for this moment. Vindication?
Ben Shapiro on BAD TRUMP "erm.. he's a meany"!!
You know you forget the "E" in "The Ben Shaprio Show" lulz
Shapiro*
If you want to know who rules over you, look at who you are not able to criticise.
if they are illegal . they need to get out !!!!!! I do not care about their feelings
Vote up if you noticed the error in the video title.
would've liked some commentary on the milo resignation
Spicer is a real problem. He's always going too deeply into policy answering. I've felt that he's either painting Trump into a corner or simply unintentionally showing that Trump is bouncing back and forth with his own policies and so causing confusion. But basically this is Trump's responsibility.
Are we talking about the same David Duke that endorsed Keith Ellison for DNC chair ? And Obama in 2008 ? 🤔
Look at it this way. If you walk up to the White House gate and say to the guard 'I want to see President Hillary Clinton." He will reply "Hillary Clinton isn't the president."
Please, give us your perspective on Milo's "resignation".
Hi's intro ended at 4:20 hihihi
Ben! Please, speak a little slower. Evem tough i like the way you organize your ideas. You have fans all over the world! You are a genius and many need to listen to you. Thanks! Love the show.

Damn, by no means am I one for a very progressive stance and take on a socialist approach but I am no fan of the conservative idea either. Thanks for answering me though.
Hence the reason I approach Milo from arms length. The man has the moral compass that is similar to Hollywood. He's sick and deranged in a lot of ways. However much I agree with some of his points(he is conservative), I cannot get behind him.
You need to have Kanye on. Seriously
That was a long headline.

Everything Ben is saying about him is spot on, stellar human being - check out the battle of 73 eastings on TH-cam
tough cases make bad law. u should know that Ben, esq.
Yes it made inviting the speaker worth while, inviting people with different opinions should be the basis of universities. Who are you to determine when the 1st amendment ends? Disagree with the speaker all you want, protest as well, but actual riots over free speech is wrong, and you're wrong on this statement.
The comments here make Ben's point for him. Listen to what he is actually saying. The alt-right and the radical left sound a lot alike.
"Transbender... gender"

I really don't know enough about David Duke's positions to defend him by any means, but isn't it actually true that Jewish people own most of the banking and mainstream media institutions? Judaism is a little tricky because it's an ideology as well as a race, but if you can show that there's some ideological hegemony there is it a discussion that's inherently racist?
for example, I have no problem with Arab people running Saudi Arabia, but the ideological hegemony of Islam is a huge problem.
A Mir I agree, there are certainly different denominations in all religions with very different interpretations of their core doctrines. And I'm not saying ideological Judaism is necessarily causing problems, but I'm asking whether it's racist to have that discussion. Ben seems to suggest it is here.
I think the speaker should have the option to speak, and thus against the protestors, especially if shown violent. At the same time, I think say Islamists can speak on campuses and so forth, even thou they might use derogatory language about homosexuals, Jews, women whatever. The line is drawn when one promote violence.
Preferably I would like such speakers having a bunch of students who just asks critical questions, instead of protesting. It's important cause they may have to deal with such people in their career.
Does Ben Shapiro always wear a yarmulke in his video's? I didn't notice until now
Declan Jeffrey pretty sure he does.

um.... the "e" in "The" is missing in the title 😅😅😅
Yeah, we know who the enemy is, and we have good memories, Ben. Controlled opposition and pacing your audience for when it matters IE election time or taking down someone important to a new movement not controlled by typical left and right politics. Any good liar needs to put truth in the goods like putting cheese on a mousetrap. You're a good debater but not effective at resisting Saudi money.
Also Ben I stand for Free Speech, no matter who it is, with a few exceptions like during a declared war. Example: Nazi free speech bad in WWII when we are fighting Nazis, but in peacetime it is ok. Why in peacetime? Because the left views Ben Shapiro as a Nazi / Fascist. They don't care that you are Jewish, because their definition of Nazism is anyone who disagrees with them. Simply acting like you are above it all, is frankly crap and won't convince anyone to side with you. I don't want allies like that...who crack and become McMuffin supporters.
As long as you understand that the speech itself is evil....
You have a typo in your title...
Misspelled "the" in the title.
Where are these conservatives you are talking about? I am worried you are pissed at Milo, pissed that Milo was invited to CPAC (which he shouldn't have been in my opinion), pissed that Milo seems to have stained his image and in turn "the right", and angry at "us" (the internet viewers) because some people supported him. If this is all true, I think you are pretty much spot on on some of that, but don't let it turn u inside out against your own party. We need you fighting on our side.....
I just listened to remainder of show on daily wire. You are pissed, and you should go ahead and get it out, it's making you a little grumpy. Lol.
Sometimes I wish I could hate Trump like Liberals hate Trump. I don't necessarily mean perpetuate the liberal hyperbole, but rationally hate him. I tried, but I can't. The left makes me hate them, and I'm not even a Conservative either. The anti-PC, anti-Establishment, anti-Corporate media is too much of a pull. It's why I thought Bernie was a good candidate... until he endorsed Clinton. But the need to conform to the left is so strong because you get bullied and harassed for even being objective about Trump.
Agree except for Bernie. Both he and Hillary competed for Sharpton's support.
