00:00:00.000 Last story of the day.
00:00:01.360 Twitter is erupting right now.
00:00:02.940 Twitter is erupting.
00:00:04.300 Guys, I couldn't believe this happened.
00:00:06.420 Ben Shapiro and Candace Owens are literally going at it on Twitter.
00:00:11.240 On Twitter.
00:00:12.100 As you guys know, I have been following Ben Shapiro and Candace Owens.
00:00:15.840 So Candace Owens has been outspoken that she does not believe in genocide.
00:00:20.980 Now, when it comes to the Middle East or the Israel situation,
00:00:25.960 I'm not an expert.
00:00:27.280 That is not my field.
00:00:28.480 But Candace had a tweet saying that she believed that it was wrong when Israel bombed Palestine.
00:00:36.920 Ben Shapiro comes out and says her behavior is despicable.
00:00:40.180 At a private event, there was a clip of Ben saying that he thought Candace Owens' behavior
00:00:44.800 was despicable.
00:00:45.540 I don't know if he thought he was being recorded.
00:00:47.360 Maybe he didn't.
00:00:48.360 But this clip starts circulating on YouTube.
00:00:50.780 Now, Candace Owens weighs in on this clip on Tucker Carlson.
00:00:54.840 Let's go.
00:00:55.140 So I can't respond to it on a level of intellect because there's nothing that he has expressed,
00:00:59.940 at least in that short clip, that he fundamentally disagrees with in terms of what I said.
00:01:03.620 But I will say that I'm not going to respond with the same ad hominant attacks.
00:01:07.920 I don't think it helps further discussion.
00:01:09.620 And if that was me that was caught on a video saying that about colleagues that I work with,
00:01:14.500 I would be embarrassed.
00:01:15.720 So I think that the video speaks more to Ben's character than it speaks to mine.
00:01:19.660 Does he text you to apologize or explain or anything?
00:01:21.740 No.
00:01:22.060 What tends to happen is, of course, we all have elements of selfishness within us.
00:01:26.120 And so when it particularly pertains to an issue that impacts you.
00:01:29.520 Candace Owens is obviously upset, as anyone would be, that Ben Shapiro is coming after her.
00:01:36.940 You know, she does this thing.
00:01:38.400 And I have to be honest, guys.
00:01:40.220 Women do use religion as a way to, like, kind of be passive aggressive.
00:01:44.600 We do that.
00:01:46.380 And she does a tweet, which is clearly about her previous tweet condemning genocide.
00:01:54.960 So Ben Shapiro comes in and says,
00:02:23.500 Candace, if you feel that taking money from the Daily Wire somehow comes between you and God,
00:02:28.820 by all means, quit.
00:02:30.100 I'm like, what?
00:02:33.500 This public feud, this public feud.
00:02:36.200 I never thought I would be in a world where political commentators are publicly, like, quitting
00:02:43.880 and getting fired.
00:02:44.680 I mean, no one's quit yet.
00:02:45.580 But, I mean, I can't imagine this goes in a different direction.
00:02:49.180 Candace says, you have been acting unprofessional and emotionally unhinged for weeks now.
00:02:52.660 We all have to sit back and allow it and have to exercise exceeding understanding for your
00:02:57.960 raw emotion.
00:02:59.500 You are utterly out of line for suggesting that I cannot quote biblical scripture.
00:03:03.800 The Bible is not about you.
00:03:06.840 Yeah.
00:03:07.420 Okay.
00:03:07.700 I got to be honest, though.
00:03:08.980 Candace.
00:03:11.000 Candace.
00:03:11.480 I think it could be inferred that she was implying.
00:03:16.280 But at the same time, I think I would have just ignored it if I was Ben.
00:03:20.340 I don't think it was worth responding to.
00:03:22.580 I am genuinely confused by asking questions and quoting Bible verses about peace warrants
00:03:27.920 to call a resign from the Daily Wire.
00:03:30.280 There should be more room in the conservative movement for disagreement.
00:03:32.880 We can do better than this.
00:03:33.760 Yeah.
00:03:34.320 And I don't know what it is about this issue.
00:03:36.300 This issue, like, I've seen it, like, tear apart professional relationships in front
00:03:41.480 of our eyes when it's like, why can't we just talk freely and explore both sides?
00:03:46.800 But you can't even do that without getting demonetized on YouTube, guys.
00:03:50.900 I don't know.
00:03:51.280 I'm not saying this is the reason.
00:03:52.600 But I am saying it's interesting timing.
00:03:54.580 Okay.
00:03:55.100 But let me know whose side you are on.
00:03:57.020 Ben Shapiro or Candace Owens.
00:03:58.780 I am a fan of both of them.
00:04:00.060 I think they're both awesome.
00:04:00.980 So it's unfortunate to see them fighting like this, but very entertaining.
