Podbit · The Ben Shapiro Show
Mamdani beams at the Pakistan Day Parade — a country where homosexuality is criminalized — and shows up dutifully but joylessly at Pride. The contrast exposes that his coalition is held together not by shared values but by shared opposition to America and Israel.

From a photo of a hybrid Palestine-trans flag at the Seattle Pride March, Shapiro constructs a thesis: abandoning the American flag doesn't stop at the Eagles banner or the Pride flag — it ends at the coalition of radical Islam and trans activism, united by shared opposition to American founding values. Zohran Mamdani, the NYC mayoral candidate backed by the DSA, serves as his primary exhibit. Shapiro notes that Mamdani attended the Pakistan Day Parade in Brooklyn — Pakistan being an Islamist state that criminalizes homosexuality — while skipping the Israel Day Parade. In a clip, Mamdani tells ABC's John Karl he cannot support Israel 'as a Jewish state' because he opposes any state that 'privileges one religion.' Shapiro also plays a clip of Abdul El-Sayed, likely Michigan Senate nominee, attacking Chuck Schumer and AIPAC, and DSA member David Jenkins openly declaring his goal is 'communism.' He frames the whole bloc as a 'takeover' of the Democratic Party.
Rejecting the American flag doesn't land you at the Philadelphia Eagles banner. It lands you at the hybrid Palestine-trans flag — where radical Islam and trans activism share the same coalition because what they have in common is hatred of American founding values.
Colorado DSA candidate Milad Kirosh said the 9/11 attacks were 'inevitable' given US destabilization of the Middle East, a framing Shapiro compared to Osama bin Laden's letter.
Ten years ago, 90% of tech media coverage was relentlessly negative and Kalanick felt he couldn't speak freely. Today, the rise of independent podcasters and Elon Musk buying Twitter has fundamentally changed the game — and it's why he's finally willing to talk.
Kay Classman, 28, was arrested for repeatedly posing as a 16-year-old and enrolling in Bronx high schools across multiple districts. She wasn't a predator — just someone so sad and lonely she wanted her lost childhood back. That's somehow sadder.
Disney, Meta, and Paramount have collectively paid Trump roughly $60 million to settle what Galloway calls nuisance lawsuits — all routed to his presidential library. Newsrooms are folding. The White House is handpicking press pool participants. This is what the end of a free press looks like.
One cheap fake documentary made by a teenager in his mother's basement convinced 16% of Americans that 9/11 was an inside job. Social media didn't invent conspiracy — it just gave it a rocket engine.
A progressive organization with a stated mission to destroy Turning Point USA received millions from ActBlue and is now publicly pushing the narrative that TPUSA insiders and Israel murdered Charlie Kirk. Andrew Wilson traced the network of accounts all amplifying the same conspiracy in perfect unison.
The microphone-bomb theory fails on every physical front: no smoke, no ignition, mic on the wrong side of the wound. And the .30-06 rifle round used is extensively documented by the US Army — it does not always produce a through-and-through wound. Wilson argues this is a well-studied projectile with well-understood behavior.
Andrew Wilson publicly offered Candace Owens $300,000 to debate her theory that Israel and TPUSA murdered Charlie Kirk. She refused. He argues that flat-earthers will debate anyone, but Kirk conspiracy theorists won't defend their claims under scrutiny.
Erika Kirk became the CEO of TPUSA while grieving her husband's murder in public, and now faces tens of thousands accusing her of conspiring to kill him. Andrew Wilson calls it mind-boggling psychological torture. The sparklers at the memorial weren't suspicious — they were a grieving widow doing her best in an impossible situation.
Joe Rogan and Andrew Wilson watch a bystander video of the Corey Ruiz police shooting in Madison, Wisconsin live on air. The video is so blurry they initially think a female officer fired the fatal shots. They later learn a male officer did, after Ruiz allegedly pulled a knife and stabbed officers. Their conclusion: you cannot have a hot take on a story you don't understand yet.
