Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro entered the lion’s den in a video posted on Thursday, taking down arguments made by 25 Kamala Harris supporters on numerous topics. 
Shapiro faced off with the leftists in a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK-liQhqPjs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">video</a> produced by Jubilee, a media company that focuses on putting people in provocative conversations. During Shapiro’s one hour and forty minutes being surrounded by Harris supporters, the Daily Wire host destroyed emotional leftist arguments by calmly presenting a conservative point of view. 
The debate was structured so that each person in the room raced to a single chair facing Shapiro for a chance to challenge him. Whoever was in the chair could speak until either a majority of their fellow leftists voted them out by raising a red flag or until the time limit on the specific topic was reached. 
Here are Shapiro’s best takedowns from the Jubilee video:
<h4>Shapiro slams Harris supporter’s argument that there’s only a “small trickle” of illegal border crossings</h4>
The Daily Wire editor emeritus blasted one man’s argument that the southern border is currently closed, and there is only a “small trickle” of illegal immigrants coming into the U.S. 
“So your argument is that it&#8217;s not happening and it&#8217;s good that it is,” Shapiro replied.

<h4>Shapiro rips the race-obsession of DEI policy</h4>
The Daily Wire host questioned one Harris voter’s support for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), saying there’s no need for “a conversation about why we ought to be represented by race or by sex.”
“I think that we are each individual people with individual ideas, and if that person represents my ideas, I don’t care what sex, race, or sexual orientation they are.”

<h4>The “stolen” land narrative is destroyed after Shapiro asks one question</h4>
One man donning a hat with flowers on it started his conversation with Shapiro by stating that they were standing on “stolen” land. 
“Are you moving anytime soon?” Shapiro asked.
“No, but the fact of the matter is I’m born and raised [in] California…” 
“Yeah, but it’s stolen land so why don’t you give it back?”
“We should,” the Harris supporter replied. 
“So why don’t you?” Shapiro asked. “You could do it today. Right now.”

<h4>Shapiro calls out leftist’s brazen “lack of concern” for children trafficked at border</h4>
Another man who debated Shapiro dismissed Shapiro’s concern over the federal government losing track of over 300,000 children who crossed the southern border. 
“I think that the federal government has a responsibility to release children who come across the border only to people for whom there is follow-up available,” Shapiro said. “And I find it very bizarre that you’re totally fine with people just signing off on handing over children to people who merely claim to be relatives without any follow-up whatsoever.” 
“Your lack of concern about what happens to those kids without proper verification and follow-up is disquieting to me,” he added.

<h4>Shapiro lists reasons that Hamas was emboldened to attack Israel under Biden-Harris</h4>
The Daily Wire host responded to one Harris supporter who argued that it’s unfair to criticize the Biden-Harris administration for the war in Gaza after Hamas attacked Israel. 
“The Biden administration came in, it decided to take an antithetical view to the Saudi government, not just the Israeli government. They came in, they were very unfriendly to Saudi Arabia,” he said, adding, that the Biden administration also began distancing itself from the Israeli government. 
“Hamas and Iran saw this, and they decided the best way to put pressure on the Abraham Accords more generally and to forestall any prospective peace deal between the Saudis and the Israelis would be to launch the attack right now,” Shapiro said.

<h4>Shapiro defends merit, blasts DEI as leftist laughs at his upbringing</h4>
Shapiro shot back at a Harris supporter’s argument that wealth in the U.S. is mostly created through nepotism. Shapiro used himself as an example, saying that while he is wealthy now, he “certainly wasn’t born very wealthy.” After another person in the group laughed at Shapiro’s statement, the Daily Wire editor emeritus responded. 
“You can laugh at my particular history, but I grew up in an eleven hundred square-foot home in Burbank, California, with four siblings in one bedroom,” he said.

<h4>Shapiro rips Affirmative Action: “Thank God” that it’s gone</h4>
While still discussing DEI with the same Harris supporter, Shapiro celebrated the ending of Affirmative Action. 
“We&#8217;ve had affirmative action programs in this country for solidly 40 years,” Shapiro said. 
“But now affirmative action is gone. It&#8217;s out the door,” the Harris voter replied.
“Thank God,” Shapiro said.

<h4>Woman who believes she’s a man goes on unhinged rant — Shapiro responds with simple facts</h4>
A trans-identifying woman spoke for around five minutes, barely letting Shapiro respond to her questions. But in the few seconds that Shapiro was able to get a word in, he calmly responded with biological facts. 
<iframe loading="lazy" title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/QK-liQhqPjs?si=P_LqkY5yGT2wO-Uc&amp;clip=Ugkx6-Vt7GIg2pP6say6RXpQ9Rz-cZVtKF9u&amp;clipt=EJ-wgQEY_4SFAQ" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
<h4>Woman thinks an abortion doesn’t mean the death of a fetus. Shapiro patiently explains the definition of abortion. </h4>
Shapiro was asked by one woman, who said she is pro-abortion through “all nine months,” why his definition of abortion includes the death of a “fetus.” The Daily Wire host responded, saying, “Because that’s literally the definition of abortion.” 
“Where are you getting your definition [of abortion] from?” Shapiro asked. 
“Let’s go to like Mayo Clinic, like any hospital you’ve ever gone to before,” the woman replied. “You can say that abortion is the ending of a pregnancy, right?”
“No,” Shapiro responded. “You can’t say that.” 
“What do you value in a fetus then?” she asked.
“The life of the fetus,” Shapiro said.

Daily Wire host Michael Knowles stumped a leftist at the University of California, Berkeley, who disagreed with Knowles’ past criticisms of modern science, especially relating to transgenderism and climate change.
Knowles, who <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/michael-knowles-reveals-the-lefts-ignorance-about-hamas-october-7-attack-in-speech-at-uc-berkeley" target="_blank" rel="noopener">spoke</a> at the liberal university on the anniversary of Hamas’ brutal attack on Israel, took questions from the crowd and was asked by a student about his past statements.
“In your show, I see you often say that science is mostly fake in regards to transgenderism, climate change, cigars that might give you cancer,” the student said.
Knowles replied, saying, “Science is mostly good. Natural philosophy is good, but the notion that a little boy is actually a girl, which we call ‘science’ today … that is fake.”
The student shot back, arguing that “the most educated researchers” he has talked to “all seem to disagree” with Knowles’ view on modern science.
“So, how do you pursue evidence-based policy if you ignore so much of the evidence, or do you flip the script like your co-worker says and put your feelings over facts?” he asked.
“Which studies do you mean?” Knowles pressed.
“The fake ones, I guess,” the student responded.
“Can you cite the studies you’re talking about? … Could you name even one of them off the top of your head?” Knowles asked.
“No, you know, I just threw them all out. They’re all fake, right?” the student quipped.
<a href="https://www.amiracist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.amiracist.com/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1726313279401000&amp;usg=AOvVaw115_qPFFEePDP86-Fvo-Vd">Am I Racist? Is In Theaters NOW — Get Your Tickets Here!</a>
“You&#8217;re being sarcastic because it&#8217;s the last refuge of someone who has no answer,” Knowles shot back.
The Daily Wire host then blasted leftists who cite studies they haven’t read to back up their political ideology.
“That’s my complaint with modern science is that it is fake,” Knowles said. “And you’re proving to me that it’s fake. You’re not even relying on it. You’re relying on a kind of gut intuition, which is really just a half-baked religious sense that a boy can be a girl and the sun god is going to kill us all in 12 years or whatever AOC said 15 years ago. And, unfortunately, it’s not grounded in any serious philosophy or theology or, certainly, anthropology, but it’s also not even grounded in modern science.”

Knowles Shuts Down Leftist Who Claims Transgenderism Is Backed By Science

One of America’s favorite personal care brands is so obsessed with diversity, equity, and inclusion that it claims the leftist ideology is “at the heart of everything” it does.
Bath &amp; Body Works, one of the most well-known retail companies in the U.S., has been <a href="https://www.3blmedia.com/news/bath-body-works-recognized-forbes-one-americas-best-employers-diversity">lauded</a> by the legacy media for its commitment to the DEI grift. As <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220407102431/https://www.bathandbodyworks.com/m/diversity-equity-inclusion.html">far back</a> as April of 2022, Bath &amp; Body Works has openly bragged about its commitment to DEI with an entire webpage dedicated to the leftist creed. 
“We’re actively working to foster an anti-racist culture full of allies that embrace social change, hold themselves accountable and celebrate all identities, cultures and heritages—with concrete steps to achieve all of the above,” the company <a href="https://www.bathandbodyworks.com/m/diversity-equity-inclusion.html?srsltid=AfmBOoowjZxjoY6PoUwubb0sMQAF_yhiyy8x1VgXiZ_n7yuz_WF8H2ag">writes</a>. 
Bath &amp; Body Works, which <a href="https://www.bbwinc.com/people#:~:text=Our%20more%20than%2057%2C000%20associates,that%20guide%20everything%20we%20do.">employs</a> over 57,000 people, says DEI is so important because “We all inhabit several different identities, based on our race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religious background and so much more—and we’re actively working to foster a diverse workforce that not only respects these identities, but removes any barriers to access and opportunity by continuously reassessing and updating processes within our business.” 
Bath &amp; Body Works doesn’t just talk about DEI. They practice it too. In October of 2022, the company <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2022/10/26/2542195/0/en/Bath-Body-Works-Announces-New-Chief-Diversity-Officer.html">hired</a> Kelie Charles as its “Chief Diversity Officer.” Charles, who previously worked in the DEI realm for Home Depot and Target, is in charge of “working closely with associates and senior leadership to continue to evolve and refine the company’s journey to becoming an even more diverse, equitable and inclusive organization.”
Bath &amp; Body Works claims to be a great company for women, but can they even define “woman”? The company claims to “champion diversity” by respecting all “genders” and “orientations.” That’s DEI-speak for going along with the claims of a man who wants to be a woman. 
The personal care brand also promoted LGBTQ “Pride Month,” writing, “This June, Bath &amp; Body Works welcomes Pride Month – a time of celebration and self-acceptance for the LGBTQ+ community and its allies, and a time for reflection on the progress made and the work still needed to achieve equality for all.” And of course, Bath &amp; Body Works came out with a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/bathandbodyworks/videos/its-pride-every-day-with-the-love-always-wins-collection-/433312056277221/">“Pride” collection</a> to celebrate “Pride every day.”
Is Bath &amp; Body Works as committed to quality products and service as they are to promoting DEI and LGBTQ initiatives? We’ll let you make the call on that.

A group of students at the University of Florida were outraged that the college’s chapter of the Young America’s Foundation (YAF) was advertising on campus for its upcoming screening of The Daily Wire’s hit movie “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/videos/lady-ballers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lady Ballers</a>.”
“Lady Ballers,” directed by company co-founder Jeremy Boreing, tells the story of one down-on-his-luck former high school basketball coach, Rob (played by Boreing), who will do anything to win — which in this case means teaching his team of men radical modern gender theory and leading them to identify as women in order to brutally dominate multiple women’s sports.
The YAF advertisement for “Lady Ballers” was written in chalk on a university sidewalk and informed students of an April 4 screening of the movie and a Q&amp;A with “Lady Ballers” stars and “Crain &amp; Co.” hosts Jake Crain, Blain Crain, and David Cone at Florida’s Emerson Alumni Hall. Video taken by YAF staffer Aléjandro Flores captured a woman pouring water on the chalk, attempting to erase the conservative student group’s ad, claiming it’s “transphobic” and “against women.”
Caitlyn McCoy, the University of Florida YAF chair, told The Daily Wire, &#8220;Chalking is one of the best ways we advertise our events to students, faculty, and staff on campus.”
“UF YAF’s chalk is always met with buckets of water and angry students who try to silence speech,” McCoy added. “It’s clear that there’s some students on campus who think basic biology is wrong and are fuming over a comedy film.”

In the video, the female student tells Flores “Trans women are women,” but when Flores asked if she could define what a woman is, the student replied, “Anybody who self-identifies as a woman.”
The woman was then joined by multiple other students, including a man who told Flores, “I’m sorry you guys have nothing better to do than to write transphobic comments on there.”
“It’s not transphobia; it’s just the truth and we’re announcing an event that’s coming up,&#8221; Flores responded. &#8220;The Daily Wire is bringing out ‘Lady Ballers.’”
“It’s a transphobic film against trans women, and I think that trans women should have rights,” the female student said while pouring water on YAF’s chalk message. As the leftist students began walking away, the male student told Flores, “You know, watching so much gay s*** kinda sounds gay if you know what I mean.”

The young Kansas City Chiefs fan who was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/deadspin-writer-torched-for-accusing-child-of-blackface-at-kansas-city-chiefs-game" target="_blank" rel="noopener">accused of wearing “blackface”</a> and mocking American Indian culture at the team’s last game “is Native American,” his mother said. 
After Holden Armenta was shown on TV wearing an American Indian headdress with his face painted red and black during the CBS broadcast of the Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders game on Sunday, leftist sports writer Carron Phillips wrote a piece decrying the young child’s “disrespect” for black people and American Indians. Armenta’s mom, Shannon, took to Facebook on Monday after Phillips’ article was published by Deadspin, defending her young son and calling out the sports blog, NewsNation <a href="https://www.newsnationnow.com/race-in-america/chiefs-fans-mom-defends-son-racist/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. 
“This has nothing to do with the NFL,” Shannon Armenta wrote in a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/sunshine5826/posts/pfbid02N4ELzqXFeR8RA9FjPNA9iKYEDfxhMQsdR1s3kMnx5ET4HjnMqiy6iR8wfh7L5cm1l" target="_blank" rel="noopener">post</a>. “Also, CBS showed him multiple times and this is the photo people chose to blast to create division. He is Native American — just stop already.” 
Holden is from an American Indian family, and his grandfather is on the board of the Chumash tribe in Santa Ynez, California, <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/breaking-the-young-kansas-city-chiefs-fan-deadspin-tried-to-cancel-over-false-black-face-and-racism-accusations-is-native-american" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to The Post Millennial.
Phillips’ piece was roundly mocked on social media after he condemned the young fan for wearing “blackface.” X owner Elon Musk even chimed in after a community note was placed on the article explaining that the photo used in the article only showed the side of Armenta’s face that was painted black and ignored that the other side of his face was painted red, which is the Chiefs&#8217; primary color. 
“Another @CommunityNotes win exposing deception,” Musk wrote.

Phillips called out his critics in a post on X Monday, writing, “For the idiots in my mentions who are treating this as some harmless act because the other side of his face was painted red, I could make the argument that it makes it even worse. Y’all are the ones who hate Mexicans but wear sombreros on Cinco.”
In his piece targeting the young Chiefs fan, Phillips also threw in a jab at conservatives who take a stand on cultural issues.

“This is what happens when you ban books, stand against Critical Race Theory, and try to erase centuries of hate,” he wrote. “You give future generations the ammunition they need to evolve and recreate racism better than before.”

In yet another effort to attack Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s efforts to implement judicial reform to Israel’s leftist judiciary, which has a stranglehold over government policies, The New York Times gushed over a radical activist opposing Netanyahu, calling her “the face of the protests.”
The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/02/world/middleeast/shikma-bressler-israel-judicial-protests.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> was devoted to Dr. Shikma Bressler, a professor at the Weizmann Institute. It spoke of Bressler sitting at a table in a café when “a young waitress rushed over, gushing at her in admiration,” and an older couple at the next table looking at her “with tears in their eyes,” as the wife told Bressler, “You are our hope,” while the husband breathed, “She’s an honest, brave and genuine leader.”
“Dr. Bressler sealed her status as a symbol of the protest movement last month when she led a miles-long column of demonstrators on a multi-day march to the hills of Jerusalem from coastal Tel Aviv,” The Times wrote, adding breathlessly, “It evoked a biblical pilgrimage,”
Yet Bressler, the co-founder of the “Black Flag Protests,” who stated of the current situation, “It’s rare that you recognize you are in a real-time historical moment,” is a radical who has opposed Netanyahu for years, leading a large black-shirt militia in front of the Israeli Supreme Court in April 2020 yelling “Democracy!”

In mid-June, Channel 14’s political correspondent Motti Kastel revealed messages from a secret WhatsApp group that included former Prime Ministers Ehud Barak and Ehud Olmert, former Chiefs of Staff Dan Halutz and Bogie Ya’alon, Crime Minister (activist group) founder Yishai Hadas, and founders of the Black Flags activist group. The group discussed how to revive the faltering protests, The Jewish Press <a href="https://www.jewishpress.com/news/left-vs-right/exposed-as-protest-numbers-dwindle-anarchist-leadership-pushing-for-violence/2023/06/12/">reported</a>.
In July 2020, Barak — who has opposed Netanyahu’s effort at judicial reform in 2023 and has been leading the leftist coalition against Netanyahu for years, led a video conference in which he spoke of his plans to topple Netanyahu, long before the current strong right-wing coalition had the power they have today.
Barak spoke of Netanyahu “killing the Knesset,” “the defacto surrender of the legislative branch to the executive,” and referred to Netanyahu as a “dictator.” He compared Netanyahu’s government to the right-wing governments of Hungary and Poland.”
“The fall of Bibi will in any case be an important step,” he said, adding, “Democrats, it’s not leftists, it’s a better definition,” and saying when someone asked, “What are you?’ his preferred answer would be, “I’m a democrat, and what about you? Aren’t you?”
“As soon as the police violence, even if it seems to the police to be justified, causes irreversible damage to the citizens, it only increases the protest,” he asserted.
Israeli Minister Galit Distal <a href="https://www.israelunwired.com/its-a-planned-coup/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stated</a>:
<blockquote>
I assume that many of you have already been exposed to the video of Ehud Barak from three years ago detailing his master plan in front of a camera:

<li style="font-weight: 400;">
<blockquote>Deliberately ignite civil disobedience.</blockquote>

<li style="font-weight: 400;">
<blockquote>Create a false representation of a danger to Israeli democracy, because it is effective, it speaks to everyone, it is catchy, and it is the only fuel that can ignite a civil war.</blockquote>

</li>
</ol>
In late July, Israel Transportation Minister Miri Regev wrote Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara, demanding that Barak and Forum 555 be investigated on suspicion of “criminal gathering, <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/372584" target="_blank" rel="noopener">civil disobedience</a>, and an attempted coup d’état.”

A popular Left-wing host fired back at the political Left this week for pushing so-called transgender &#8220;treatments&#8221; to minors, warning that they leave &#8220;irreparable harm.&#8221;
Ana Kasparian, co-host of &#8220;The Young Turks,&#8221; said during a Sunday interview on a different show that leftists were attacking journalists to &#8220;intimidate&#8221; them &#8220;from doing accurate reporting on what’s actually occurring on the ground.&#8221;
She spoke out about a reporter who faced problems for reporting that there are risks &#8220;when it comes to transitioning literal kids with puberty blockers.&#8221;
&#8220;It is a lie that puberty blockers are reversible,&#8221; she said. &#8220;In some cases they are not, and they can cause irreparable harm.&#8221;
&#8220;Withholding the information because you don&#8217;t like the information getting out there ain&#8217;t the way to go, because that destroys any opportunity for us to actually have a good faith debate about what we should do moving forward, what are the pros and cons,&#8221; she said.

When asked if anyone had actually called her a “birthing person,” Kasparian responded, “Yes … I live in CA.”
Her remarks came after she ripped the term back in March, saying, “I’m a woman. Please don’t ever refer to me as a person with a uterus, birthing person, or person who menstruates.”
“How do people not realize how degrading this is?” she added. “You can support the transgender community without doing this s***.”

Attorney General Merrick Garland has been dogged by accusations of weaponizing the Department of Justice against President Joe Biden&#8217;s enemies since even before he took office, and those complaints just got new traction after news of a federal indictment of former President Trump.
The charge that Garland, who was once nominated for the Supreme Court by then-President Obama, sics his prosecutors on conservatives while giving Democrats a pass was the subject of a March <a href="https://judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-subsites/republicans-judiciary.house.gov/files/evo-media-document/2023-03-21-school-board-documents-interim-report.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a> by the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government and the House Judiciary Committee. That report showed internal communications between Biden Administration and National School Boards Association led to Garland’s infamous October 4, 2021 memo directing the FBI and federal prosecutors around the nation to consider parents who protest at school board meetings as potential domestic terrorists.
“Attorney General Garland is weaponizing the DOJ by using the FBI to pursue concerned parents and silence them through intimidation. Florida will defend the free speech rights of its citizens and will not allow federal agents to squelch dissent,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis tweeted.

More questions about Garland&#8217;s commitment to fair enforcement of the law have arisen from the DOJ&#8217;s prior treatment of Trump, its apparent refusal to prosecute Hunter Biden for numerous alleged crimes documented on his abandoned laptop, and its kid-glove handling of President Biden&#8217;s own classified documents scandal.
After the August 2022 raid on Trump’s home at Mar-a-Lago, former Missouri Attorney General and current U.S. Sen. Eric Schmitt blasted the nation&#8217;s top lawman.
“The weaponization of Biden’s DOJ against political enemies is unprecedented. DOJ targeting Trump DOJ targeting parents DOJ targeting gun owners DOJ ignoring illegal intimidation against Justices DOJ ignoring Hunter Biden 87k new IRS agents coming. This is Banana Republic stuff.”

But Garland’s leftist leanings have been in evidence for decades.
As a student at Harvard University in the early 1970s, Garland <a href="https://freebeacon.com/politics/merrick-garland-deferments-avoid-vietnam-draft/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sought and obtained</a> two student deferments from serving in the Vietnam War in 1971, then another in 1973.
Meanwhile, in 1973, Garland initiated formal debate on a campus referendum on the ban keeping ROTC off campus, which had been instituted in 1969. <a href="https://www.bostonglobe.com/news/nation/2016/03/18/merrick-garland-obama-supreme-court-nominee-played-role-considering-rotc-referendum-harvard-student-leader/oGY1kSjRjuNkIPvJr0q7SI/story.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Boston Globe</a> reported that Garland was a vocal opponent of  allowing the ROTC to return to the Cambridge campus. Garland’s anti-military stance was convenient for him, as his 1971 2-S deferments were obtained because of his “activity in study,” while other students at Harvard served in the armed services even though they were enrolled at Harvard. According to the <a href="http://www.thecrimson.com/article/1971/9/29/freshman-deferments-end-as-nixon-signs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard Crimson</a>, some students used a semester off to serve in the National Guard, a service entailing four to six months of duty and further service during summer vacations.
Arkansas Republican Sen. Tom Cotton in March of 2021 opposed confirming Garland as attorney general, <a href="https://www.cotton.senate.gov/news/speeches/america-cannot-afford-merrick-garland-as-attorney-general" target="_blank" rel="noopener">writing</a> that Garland would turn the Department of Justice over to extremists within.
“When he did answer questions, he sounded more like a liberal ideologue who would embrace the radical agenda of the Democratic party’s far left base,&#8221; Cotton wrote. &#8220;If confirmed, I’m afraid that he’ll enable extremists in the Justice Department to undermine our police, our Constitution, and our rule of law.”
