Grab your best red, white, and blue, and get ready for some patriotism, because The Daily Wire and Young America’s Foundation are coming together for an epic celebration of freedom in honor of America’s 250th birthday.
Your favorite Daily Wire hosts are hitting the road for “Freedom at 250,” a series of rallies throughout America’s semiquincentennial year meant to coincide with YAF’s legendary student conferences. Governor Scott Walker, YAF’s president, said the group’s partnership with The Daily Wire will help reach more students than ever before.
“While the radical Left continues its attempts to demonize and undermine our nation’s heritage and values, it is more important than ever to inspire and equip the rising generation with the ‘informed patriotism’ President Reagan called for in his farewell address,” Walker said. “Freedom that allowed America to flourish is special and rare, and its defense requires bold action.”

Coinciding with YAF&#8217;s life-changing student conferences in 2026, a series of Freedom at 250 rallies… <a href="https://t.co/CDA5C0QFqD">pic.twitter.com/CDA5C0QFqD</a>

Freedom at 250 will focus on our founders’ revolutionary bid for independence, grounded in the belief that all people are created equal, with their rights coming from God rather than from government. Those beliefs survived a civil war, making the United States a more perfect union, liberating Europe from tyranny, and taking down the Soviet Union’s “Evil Empire.”
The freedom so many before us fought for and defended has guided the United States for 250 years. That freedom is worth celebrating all year long!
Michael Knowles, Cabot Phillips, Mary Margaret Olohan, and Reagan Conrad are already booked for Nashville’s Freedom at 250 rally in February at the historic Country Music Hall of Fame.
After the tour kicks off in Music City, Freedom at 250 will make stops in Santa Barbara, California; Washington, D.C.; Philadelphia; and more cities will be announced!
Freedom at 250 builds on The Daily Wire and YAF’s years-long collaboration to bring bold voices to students nationwide at YAF’s student conferences. The always anticipated narrative-disrupting campus lectures will continue as part of Freedom at 250.
Our country’s milestone 250th birthday is a perfect time to remember President Ronald Reagan’s challenge to Americans.
“We’ve got to do a better job of getting across that America is freedom — freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of enterprise. And freedom is special and rare. It’s fragile; it needs protection.”
Freedom will be protected and celebrated throughout 2026.

Trump leans on both Ukraine and Russia as peace negotiations grind on, Daily Wire investigative reporter Luke Rosiak heads to Capitol Hill, and a new memo reveals Biden knew his immigration policies would have chaotic consequences—and chose to proceed anyway.
It’s Tuesday, December 9, 2025, and this is the news you need to know to start your day. Today’s edition of the Morning Wire podcast can be heard below, and the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/mrn-251209-member-exclusive">video version can be seen on The Daily Wir</a>e:

<h2 style="text-align: center;">Zelensky Rallies European Support Amid U.S. Peace Talks</h2>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1011783" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/12/Trump-Presses-Zelensky-300x169.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="169" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/12/Trump-Presses-Zelensky-300x169.jpg 300w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/12/Trump-Presses-Zelensky-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/12/Trump-Presses-Zelensky-768x432.jpg 768w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/12/Trump-Presses-Zelensky-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/12/Trump-Presses-Zelensky.jpg 1920w" sizes=" (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" />
Topline: President Zelensky met with European leaders on Monday to rally support for the war.
State of play: Peace talks have made some progress over the past few weeks, but that progress has stalled. After President Trump <a href="https://x.com/RapidResponse47/status/1997812364931195249">appeared</a> frustrated on Sunday and suggested that Zelensky was ignoring the peace plan, the Ukrainian president addressed the current framework on Monday.
According to Zelensky, the disagreement is over the Donbas region in Ukraine’s east. The Trump administration reportedly wants Ukraine to hand over control of the rest of the Donbas to Russia, which controls most of it already. In return, Ukraine would get security guarantees and financing to help rebuild. But Zelensky says he can’t because the Ukrainian constitution forbids ceding territory that way.
Zelensky’s corner: Zelensky wants a freeze along the current lines of the conflict. And he doesn’t appear to be alone. European leaders seem frustrated, too.
Zelensky appeared in London on Monday and met with the E3, or the top leaders in Europe: U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz.
“The principles remain the principles that we&#8217;ve operated on for a very, very long time, which is that we stand with Ukraine. If there&#8217;s to be a ceasefire, it needs to be a just and lasting ceasefire,” <a href="https://x.com/ZelenskyyUa/status/1998077179251261884">said</a> Starmer.
Merz was the most vocal about disagreements with the United States:
“We are still and remain strongly behind Ukraine and giving support to your country because we all know that the destiny of [Ukraine] is the destiny of Europe,” <a href="https://x.com/ZelenskyyUa/status/1998077179251261884">said</a> Merz. “I&#8217;m skeptical about some of the details which we are seeing in the documents coming from the U.S. side, but we have to talk about that.”
<h2 style="text-align: center;">The Daily Wire To Testify Before Congress </h2>

Topline: Daily Wire investigative reporter Luke Rosiak will testify to the Senate on Wednesday as an <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/daily-wires-luke-rosiak-will-testify-before-the-senate-on-massive-federal-dei-scheme">expert</a> on what he calls the government’s longest-running, largest, and most corrupt DEI program. Morning Wire spoke to Rosiak ahead of his appearance in the Senate. (The following interview has been lightly edited.)
Morning Wire: The Senate Small Business Committee oversees the Small Business Administration and its government-wide minority contracting program called 8(a) or “set-aside contracting.&#8221; Luke, you’re getting prepared to testify–that’s very exciting. First, how did this come about–it’s actually years in the making, right?
Rosiak: About 15 years ago, I was sitting in a cafe doing some computer programming when I got offered a job. A well-dressed black man was sitting next to me and said he noticed that I was programming in C++, and that he needed to hire some people quickly for the computer programming company he owned.
The problem is I was coding in a different language that looks nothing like C++. I tried to figure out how he owned a computer company and didn’t know that. He said it was an 8(a) contract from the government, and that he just gets contracts and then finds people to do the work.
It struck me that this is a pretty poor way to run the government. I’m not even a professional computer programmer; I just dabble in it. But for all I know, he was ready to hire me to build some sensitive government system.
Anyway, instead of taking the job, I dug into this 8(a) program, and what I found was that that’s more or less exactly how it works.
Morning Wire: Explain to us–what exactly is going on here?
Rosiak: If you’re a racial minority, the government can give you a contract without trying to find the best price or the best person.
More than five percent of all federal contracts are reserved for minorities and women, who are often really just men who put their company in their wife’s name. The program was created in 1978 to help black people, but now it’s gone really off the rails. Indians get preference for contracts even though they have a higher median income than whites, and they’re overrepresented in fields like IT, which didn’t even exist prior to the civil rights era. 
Morning Wire: So some of the people receiving these preferential U.S. government contracts are actually foreigners, people who are minorities because they’re immigrants.
Rosiak: Yes. But what I’m going to tell the Senate is that the scandal here is a little different than you might think. It’s really a loophole exploited by the government and big corporations, you heard Accenture mentioned in that video, to circumvent competitive bidding.
<h2 style="text-align: center;">Early Warnings About Border Chaos</h2>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1011787" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/12/Willful-Border-Chaos-300x169.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="169" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/12/Willful-Border-Chaos-300x169.jpg 300w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/12/Willful-Border-Chaos-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/12/Willful-Border-Chaos-768x432.jpg 768w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/12/Willful-Border-Chaos-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/12/Willful-Border-Chaos.jpg 1920w" sizes=" (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" />
Topline: A new report reveals that former President Biden was told he could’ve stopped illegal immigration, but chose not to during his tenure in the White House. 
A shocking <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/07/us/politics/biden-immigration-trump.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a> from The New York Times said that President Biden was warned while on the campaign trail, before he even assumed office, that some of his immigration policies would lead to political chaos. That&#8217;s exactly what happened as the consequences of Biden’s policies began to unfold at the border.
The record amounts of illegal immigration that swamped the border, then towns, then major cities, drove the immigration issue to become a priority for voters in the next election. The issue also likely played a major role in President Trump&#8217;s victory.
According to The New York Times, there were a number of memos and meetings where aides and experts brought up immigration and warned the Biden team that his policies needed to be stricter or the border would descend into what it became, which was millions of illegal immigrants coming across in a free-for-all.
In a 2020 memo from aides cautioned Biden’s “inner circle” “that his promises—coupled with pent-up demand from the Trump years and economic hardship from Covid—could provoke a spike in border crossings,” according to the Times.
The memo offered potential solutions to tighten permissions for illegal border crossers, “including making it easier to quickly reject asylum claims; holding people in ‘reception centers’ until their cases could be heard; transferring some migrants to other countries; and continuing to make some asylum seekers wait in Mexico, while ensuring they had access to shelter,” the Times reported.
Coulda, woulda, shoulda: After the fact, many former officials are saying there were many mistakes made on the Biden team and by Biden himself, who knowingly went against this advice. They scrapped rules such as asylum restrictions and remain in Mexico, which kept people in Mexico rather than releasing them into the United States after they crossed illegally.
After the changes, the number of illegal crossings ticked up–8 million illegal immigrants crossed into the country and many were released. Border authorities conducted poor vetting because Biden wanted a very quick, expeditious process. That let in terrorists, traffickers, and cartel members that led to chaos across the country, such as in Aurora, Colorado, where Tren de Aragua took over apartment complexes.

The highly anticipated series “The Pendragon Cycle: Rise of the Merlin” promises to deliver a version of Merlin unlike any seen before. Actor Tom Sharp, who takes on the iconic role in the adaptation of Stephen R. Lawhead’s bestselling series, says the character will surprise even longtime fans.
“Well, you know, it’s Merlin. So he’s an iconic character that’s probably known in most cultures around the world,” Sharp told The Daily Wire. 
Calling it his “biggest role to date and biggest production to date,” he emphasized that this Merlin is more than the mysterious, on the fringes secondary character that most Arthurian legend retellings make him out to be. 
“This is set before King Arthur, but instead of just a magical advisor … he’s also seen as a young warrior, which would be different for people to see. And it’s a grittier, more grounded tone … He’s hands on. He’s at the forefront,” Sharp explains.
The production draws heavily from Lawhead’s original story, which is a combination of Celtic mythology, Christian themes, and historical drama. The novels center on the rise of Britain from a land of chaos into a civilization awakened by faith. As previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dailywire-announces-release-date-for-the-pendragon-cycle?author=Amanda+Harding&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=DailyWire%2B+Announces+Release+Date+For+%E2%80%98The+Pendragon+Cycle%E2%80%99">reported</a>, this series aims to preserve those themes, honoring Lawhead’s vision while building an immersive, cinematic world.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/9P9t-qTJPU4?si=hAlKkma9hqIkoYzo" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
Sharp confirmed that staying true to the original was a priority behind the scenes. “We stuck as closely as possible to the books and as faithfully to the source material as possible when making this show,” he assured longtime fans. 
One pivotal moment from the source material is considered a turning point in Merlin’s life and received special focus during production. Sharp described it as a “tentpole scene” that carries significant emotional weight. “If this scene falls down, the whole show falls down,” he said, noting that “fans of the books … they’ll know what I’m talking about.” He couldn’t reveal much else except to say that the scene appears in episode six.
Authenticity was also a major theme while filming “Pendragon,” the lead actor revealed. Rather than relying on CGI, the series was filmed in stunning locations across Hungary and Italy. Sharp explained how this made things easier for him and the rest of the cast. 
“Shooting on location beats CGI and green screen every day of the week,” he said. “It’s more immersive for the audience … For actors, it’s less acting required. You’re reacting off real things.”

He continued, “If you see me running with a wolf or someone’s on fire or I’m charging into battle on a horse, swinging a sword, it’s all real.” Even the bulls in episode one, Sharp noted, were living, breathing animals.
While Merlin is often portrayed as a wise yet inaccessible mystical being, Sharp said he approached the character through the lens of humanity. “One of the challenges of playing him was how do I make him relatable because he’s so mysterious,” he said. “As an actor, I focused purely on his humanity and how the audience can connect to him.” 
Sharp also emphasized Merlin’s moral restraint. “He could easily rule in a tyrannical position, but he chooses not to… Someone with all that power, not wanting to be the ruler, is a great quality.”
The actor also mentioned the character’s other distinctly human qualities. “He’s also heavily, deeply flawed as well with a lot of tragedy and pain in his life from the beginning and throughout. And obviously, when you&#8217;re immortal, you&#8217;re quite a lonely person… [there is] a distance between him and other characters,” he said.
Sharp shared one lighthearted behind-the-scenes moment involving his first scene with actress Brett Cooper, who plays Ganieda. The pair met in full costume, with her clad in the gown of a regal princess and him presenting as a mud-covered Merlin as they both encountered a giant wild boar.
“This is not your traditional romantic setting,” he joked.
Ultimately, Sharp is excited for fans to see the series and called it a “dream come true” to play the character of Merlin. When asked about his favorite scene, he referenced the first season’s last episode. &#8220;The very final scene of the show in episode seven is my favorite personally,” Sharp said, noting that “the fans and any newcomers to the story will understand why.”
“That scene gave me a very surreal out of body experience. It was amazing and very euphoric on set. I kept talking about it for days afterwards … that memory will stay with me for life.”
“<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/the-pendragon-cycle">The Pendragon Cycle: Rise of the Merlin</a>,” premieres January 22, 2026, with early episodes releasing Christmas Day for DailyWire+ All Access members.

In the aftermath of the deadly 2023 shooting at Tennessee&#8217;s Covenant School, in which a transgender-identifying shooter killed six at the Christian school, Democrat Aftyn Behn said that her sympathies were with the transgender community.
Behn, now running to represent the Nashville area in Congress, said the aftermath of the shooting was &#8220;incredibly upsetting&#8221; for her family — because of the anger directed at the &#8220;trans communities.&#8221;
&#8220;So, for those of you who don&#8217;t know, my partner has a trans son, and the month of April and the final week of March was incredibly upsetting for us,&#8221; Behn said in a July 31, 2023, candidate forum, just months after the massacre. “In the wake of the Covenant shooting, and the disclosure that the Covenant shooter was trans, I was pulled into a chat with other trans organizers and activists across the state that were fearful of their lives.&#8221;
Right now, DailyWire+ annual memberships are fifty percent off during our Black Friday sale. Join now at <a href="http://dailywire.com/blackfriday" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dailywire.com/blackfriday</a>.
Behn said the shooting inspired her to run for office to fight &#8220;every day&#8221; for &#8220;protections for trans kids and our trans communities.&#8221; She said she was specifically inspired to fight back against The Daily Wire, and specifically Daily Wire host Matt Walsh, because the company is based in Nashville.
&#8220;Every legislative session, I promise to carry a &#8216;trans bill of rights&#8217; so that we can push back against the far-right narrative that is being emanated by Matt Walsh and The Daily Wire, who have set up their home in Nashville,&#8221; Behn said. &#8220;I promise to do that, and I promise to fight for the trans community.&#8221;

Behn, who is running against Republican Matt Van Epps in a special election next Tuesday, has indeed fought for far-left positions since she was elected that year, especially on transgender issues. For example, Behn opposed a parental rights law that would make schools notify parents about their child&#8217;s &#8220;trans identity.&#8221; She called it an attack on &#8220;vulnerable kids&#8221; who are &#8220;just trying to make it out of middle school alive.&#8221;
The Democrat is also on record opposing a law that would protect minors from drag shows. Behn insisted the law &#8220;isn&#8217;t about protecting kids&#8221; but about &#8220;spreading fear and division.&#8221;

Behn and Van Epps are fighting for the congressional seat vacated by House Homeland Security Chair Mark Green earlier this year. Democrats are loading money into the district, in hopes of flipping a reliably Republican district. Her leftist views, many of which she&#8217;s been forced to run away from, are emerging as a serious impediment.
Even on MS NOW, the liberal network formerly known as MSNBC, Behn was called out this weekend for her past policy positions, including that the Nashville police department should be disbanded and that burning down a police station is justified. She declined to back away from either statement.

WASHINGTON—The Daily Wire team joined throngs of marchers who took to the streets of the nation&#8217;s capital Saturday for the 2025 &#8220;No Kings&#8221; protest.
The Washington, D.C., rally was the focal point of similar events nationwide, meant to counter the &#8220;authoritarian threats&#8221; posed by President Donald Trump and his administration.
Protesters came prepared with posters and costumes. Many of them had gone through media training and learned chants, songs, and dances to perform. But for all that preparation, many of the protesters The Daily Wire encountered couldn&#8217;t answer what we thought was a simple question: “If Trump was elected, how is he a king?”
Responses ranged from blank stares to Kamala Harris-style word salads and vague references to “checks and balances.” Deep in a hole, a self-identified “he/she” claimed that Trump was taking away women’s right to vote. When pressed for information, he/she said “Trump has said that in interviews everywhere.”
[Editor&#8217;s note: he hasn&#8217;t].

The project was created to “support the grantee’s social welfare activities.” <a href="https://www.opensocietyfoundations.org/grants/past?filter_keyword=indivisible&amp;grant_id=OR2023-89662" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Indivisible Project</a> was awarded multiple grants, most recently they received $3 million from the Open Society Foundations.
High-profile Democratic leaders including Harris and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer encouraged participating on social media and in official statements.
Some protests took unsettling turns. A disturbing video from Chicago shows a middle-aged woman making a gun gesture with her hand and pointing to her neck. Towards the end of the D.C. protest, a chant broke out that “Turning Point has got to go.” Many signs featured rhetoric claiming “Trump was a Nazi” and “ICE = Gestapo.” A small fragment of the protest made the event a family affair with children holding signs such as “Stop Kidnapping People.”

Daily Wire podcast host Isabel Brown on Tuesday put together a tribute episode to honor slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk on what would have been his 32nd birthday. Brown invited big-name country music artists and smaller indie acts to discuss faith, music, and Kirk’s impact on the world.
Legendary country star John Rich also stopped by “The Isabel Brown Show” to pay tribute to Kirk and discuss what it means to stand up for faith and principles in the entertainment industry.
“As an American, you always have this decision to make at some point, especially in today&#8217;s culture, and that is, ‘Am I willing to say what I really think and stand for what I really stand for, knowing I&#8217;m going to take a horrible bloody nose in my career or possibly worse?’” he told Brown, adding that he “wrestled with that for many years.”
“My American dream was to play country music, be on the radio, play the Grand Ole Opry, write hit songs, all of that,” Rich went on. “And so knowing that the industry was so liberal, if I came out swinging as a Christian conservative patriot, I’m probably going to be short-lived from that point forward … And sure enough, that was the case. I’m not on the radio anymore. I don’t get invited to their big fancy parties. But on the other hand, I can say whatever I want to.”
“I can speak the truth,” the singer said. “And, you know, Charlie represented that. I mean, you see a guy who knew that walking into those situations was going to be uncomfortable at the least and potentially dangerous, which now we know it was actually deadly to walk into those situations. But he represents what it means to be a real Christian.”
“Real Christians don&#8217;t just speak the truth when it&#8217;s comfortable,” Rich added. “Matter of fact, quite the opposite.”
The singer also mentioned Kirk’s legacy, with more young people following his example and getting married and having children. 
“It&#8217;s literally the greatest feeling a person can ever have, as you know and as I know,” Rich said of marriage and parenthood. “And I think that that has been downplayed, ridiculed, demonized, even to go out and get married and have kids. I mean, we&#8217;ve seen it in the media.”

He added, “‘No, you don’t need to do that. You need to be a Kardashian. You need to be a pro athlete. You need to be this, be that.’ What about just being a regular, good dad or a regular, good mom? And they’ve never really talked about the benefits you get back to yourself when you become a good dad or a good mom. There’s nothing in the world that compares.”
Rich said the Christian revival that was set in motion following Kirk’s assassination has been inspiring.  “I do think with Charlie’s death, the mask of shallowness has been pulled back off of our culture … It’s giving people a line of sight into the real deep things of life that really matter.”
The country star also offered advice to anyone seeking to live a better life. 
“Put things into motion that will outlive you,” he said. “That way down the road when you&#8217;re no longer here, whether you die at 31 or 110, somebody somewhere gets to hear or see you do or say something that impacts them long after you&#8217;re gone.”
He went on, “It&#8217;s okay to go be successful, but your focus should be significance in your music, in your art, in what you say, in your speech. In shows like this, say things that will outlast you. That would be my advice.”

Singer Matthew West agreed with all points and also discussed the challenges of being the father of teenagers. He said he’d “been a fan of Charlie’s for a long time” and was always “inspired by his bold stance, but also the way that he exercised his right to free speech in such a respectful way.”
“I have teenage daughters, you know, who need young influencers like Charlie showing them the way and speaking into their lives like Charlie,” West said. He added that in the aftermath of Kirk’s assassination, he felt a “stirring,” which was noticeable when he performed his song “Unashamed” several days later at a stadium in Pennsylvania. 
“I definitely have felt just a stirring taking place and a spiritual awakening, as well as just a cultural awakening of going, ‘What kind of voice am I gonna have in the world? And am I willing to use it even if it comes at a cost?’”
West emphasized the impact Kirk was able to make despite being young. “There’s a verse in the Bible that says, ‘Do not let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers,’” he said, referencing a passage that’s been used in reference to Kirk many times since his death.
The singer said the hatred against Kirk is also very revealing as it’s proof of “the legitimate spiritual warfare that we as Christians do believe is constantly raging on around us at all times.” 
West said his takeaway is to be even bolder in his faith despite the backlash he may experience. “There&#8217;s a line in one of my songs called ‘Unashamed’ and it&#8217;s made me think about Charlie,” he told Brown. “And every time I find myself singing it on stage since Charlie&#8217;s death, I think about him and I think about like, I just, I almost sing it kind of angry. And the line says, ‘I don&#8217;t answer to the crowd/ I answer to a King/ So the louder they shout/ The louder I sing.’” 
West also performed a song he wrote as a tribute to Kirk, which came to him on the night of the assassination. 
“September 10th, after we found out that Charlie had gone home to be with the Lord, I gathered my wife and my two daughters together and we talked about it and we prayed … later that night, I heard a song coming from my daughter’s bedroom and she was just up there, my 19 year old daughter with her guitar and she was singing &#8230; this old hymn  from my childhood.”
He added, “And I went to bed that night and … a Bible verse woke me up early that morning. I don’t want to romanticize it, but literally that’s what happened.”
The singer-songwriter said the idea of God being close, even in the face of a tragedy, inspired the song “Be Close,” which he performed on the tribute episode.
Brown’s tribute episode, “A Life Worth Singing For,” also included insight and reflection from Cole Swindell, Abe Parker, and Anne Wilson.

Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro debated retirement and Social Security on CNN on Tuesday night, explaining to his fellow panelists how Social Security is on a path to bankruptcy.
During a roundtable discussion on CNN&#8217;s &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWUNpmUU7a8&amp;list=PL6XRrncXkMaWWFyjMtzWWSeOocFr-N_3s&amp;index=1">News Night with Abby Phillip</a>,&#8221; Shapiro defended his stance that the government should not hand out Social Security checks for people to retire at 65 years old. The Daily Wire host warned that if the government does not raise the retirement age, &#8220;We will go bankrupt.&#8221;
&#8220;Women are living to 85 if they make it to 65, men are living to 83 if they make it to 65 — that&#8217;s 20 years on the public dime,&#8221; Shapiro added.
Phillip argued that Social Security is a system in which Americans &#8220;pay into&#8221; to receive that money back at retirement.
&#8220;Well no,&#8221; Shapiro replied, adding, &#8220;I promise you the amount that people are taking out is not the amount that is going in, which is why we are going bankrupt.&#8221;
&#8220;Okay, but it&#8217;s not the government just handing out a blank check,&#8221; Phillip said. &#8220;People pay into the Social Security system.&#8221;
&#8220;No, it&#8217;s the government borrowing money &#8230; you pay in X dollars and then you get multiple times X dollars when you retire,&#8221; Shapiro replied. &#8220;That is how the system works. It is not a <a href="https://www.cato.org/commentary/al-gores-social-security-confusion">lockbox</a>. This is what Al Gore was arguing about in 2000.&#8221;

Ana Kasparian, host of the leftist show, &#8220;The Young Turks,&#8221; shot back at Shapiro, saying, &#8220;I completely reject what you just said about how we&#8217;re going bankrupt through Social Security. Really? You don&#8217;t think the trillions of dollars we&#8217;ve spent on wars in the Middle East might have something to do with that?&#8221;
&#8220;That is not even remotely a percentage of what we spend on Social Security,&#8221; Shapiro replied.
&#8220;We&#8217;re spending hundreds of billions of dollars on Israel, on Ukraine. I mean, honestly, these foreign conflicts have a lot more to do with our national debt as opposed to us paying into [Social Security],&#8221; Kasparian added.
&#8220;That is just untrue,&#8221; Shapiro fired back.
In 2024, Social Security <a href="https://www.cbpp.org/research/federal-budget/where-do-our-federal-tax-dollars-go#:~:text=Social%20Security:%20In%202024%2C%2021,workers%20and%20their%20eligible%20dependents." target="_blank" rel="noopener">accounted for 21%</a> of the federal budget, totaling $1.5 trillion. Defense spending, meanwhile, made up 13% of the budget, or $872 billion. Less than 1% of the budget was allocated to international programs, including humanitarian aid. By far, the most significant portion of the federal budget in 2024 was allocated to health insurance (24%) and Social Security.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson is taking time off from his podcasts and public appearances to recover from a genetic “immune system dysfunction” that flared up recently.
Peterson’s daughter, Mikhaila, gave an update on Peterson’s heath in an X post on Wednesday. Mikhaila revealed that her father had recently been diagnosed with Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome, or CIRS, although he has suffered from it much longer.
CIRS “causes the immune system to have an inability to identify and detoxify mold/bacteria in indoor air (the genetic predisposition is not that rare, it’s in about 25% of people but he has a severe version),” Mikhaila explained.
“Over the last year or so he’s been feeling the impact of CIRS more and more. Recently he was exposed to a particularly moldy environment while helping clean out my grandfather’s house after he passed away which severely flared symptoms,” she said.
The Daily Wire responded to Mikhaila Peterson&#8217;s post about her father: &#8220;Dr. Peterson has helped millions of people across the globe navigate the toughest of circumstances, this is our opportunity to return the favor. Please join the Daily Wire team in sending prayers and well wishes as he takes the necessary time to rest and recover. Like the rest of you, we eagerly await his return to bringing you his wisdom and guidance when he has made a full recovery.&#8221;

Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro also offered prayers:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Peterson’s flareup with CIRS has been behind a slate of canceled appearances and his recent “run-down” look and “general weepiness” from pain. The popular psychologist is undergoing treatment for the disorder, and while he is responding well, recovery has been “pretty rough,” Mikhaila said.
On Peterson’s behalf, Mikhaila apologized to people who bought tickets to Peterson’s event in Brazil that he had to cancel and to fans in Europe for having to move the date of his European tour.
While he is in recovery, new episodes of Peterson’s latest series with The Daily Wire, &#8220;Answer the Call,&#8221; will be available on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@JordanBPeterson">YouTube</a>.
Peterson has suffered with CIRS badly since 2017, though doctors for years could not accurately diagnose his chronic health problems.
“The fact that doctors don’t generally recognize that mold exposure in indoor air is causing chronic health issues is insane. The fact that this is the cause behind our food sensitivities and inability to tolerate anything other than meat (for 8 years now), multiple disorders and diseases in my family, and is virtually unrecognized by the medical community, is absurd,” Mikhaila said.
“This indoor air quality problem that causes Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome will be commonly diagnosed in the next 5-10 years. I am positive about that,” she added.

Daily Wire podcast host Michael Knowles slammed former MSNBC host Joy Reid in a surprise appearance on &#8220;Piers Morgan Uncensored.&#8221;
Morgan was interviewing Reid when he asked her to respond to a clip from &#8220;The Michael Knowles Show&#8221; that aired shortly after &#8220;The ReidOut&#8221; was canceled.
Knowles said at the time:
<blockquote>Joy Reid — probably the nastiest figure on MSNBC, the most Left, the most vicious against conservatives and white people and men and all the rest — she has just been canned, fired, kicked to the side of the road, her show is over. This saddens me a little bit, because I did not yet have the opportunity to go on it.
I am celebrating that there is no longer a market for her disgusting product. That’s what I’m genuinely happy about. There has been a major shift. Her show, and shows like her show, no longer have value. And that’s not just because of Joy Reid’s favorite villains: the evil white man or the Christians or the conservatives. It’s because no one watches her show.</blockquote>
&#8220;So, Joy, I’ve actually got Michael Knowles waiting in the wings,&#8221; Morgan said after the clip aired. &#8220;What did you make of his critique of your show?&#8221;
&#8220;Well, I mean, the reality is that obviously people watched the show,&#8221; Reid said. &#8220;That’s the reason that the show was on for four and a half, nearly five years. So if he didn’t like the show, I guess, sorry you didn’t enjoy it, but I really am not that interested in his views on it.&#8221;
Knowles fired right back.
&#8220;I guess I would agree with Joy’s take. People watched the show, in the past tense,&#8221; Knowles said. &#8220;And now there’s no longer a market for that absolutely vile content, and I think that’s good for the culture broadly.&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Reid accused Knowles and Morgan of &#8220;[trading] in grievance.&#8221;
&#8220;White grievance is very good for your bottom lines,&#8221; Reid said. &#8220;So having me here to be able to continue to traffic in that, that is your shtick.&#8221;
Knowles said Reid&#8217;s accusation was pure projection.
&#8220;When she&#8217;s talking about this anger, this grievance — I think, frankly, Piers, you and I are two of the least aggrieved people in the entire media,&#8221; Knowles said. &#8220;Generally pretty chipper, cheery people.&#8221;
Knowles added that while the Left pushed grievance politics, President Donald Trump decided success would be the best form of revenge.
&#8220;He did bring on a lot of people, many more than just white people, to his coalition: 46% of Hispanics, one in five Black men, 40% of women under 30,&#8221; Knowles said. &#8220;So, he built a very large coalition here.&#8221;
That coalition, Knowles said, is concerning liberals such as former President Barack Obama, who pushed grievance politics.
&#8220;Obama was one of the big promoters of proto-wokeness,&#8221; Knowles said. &#8220;It spun out of control, so now you&#8217;re seeing this run away with them.&#8221;
Knowles said the Left is now trying to backtrack on grievance politics.
&#8220;The Democrats got creamed in the 2024 elections. And [Obama&#8217;s] saying, &#8216;Whoa, whoa, guys, bring it back. Don’t seem so aggrieved,'&#8221; Knowles said. &#8220;I just think it’s a little bit too late. He’s being hoisted with his own petard.&#8221;

Pro-life diaper company EveryLife is mobilizing to help families in Texas who suffered devastating losses in the historic floods.
Anyone can purchase a &#8220;Buy For a Cause&#8221; bundle from EveryLife — a month&#8217;s supply of diapers and wipes costs $49.99, and all bundles will be given directly to &#8220;families in dire need due to the Texas floods,&#8221; EveryLife said on its website.
“We are praying for miracles in Texas,” Sarah Gabel Seifert, President and Co-Founder of EveryLife, said in a statement to The Daily Wire.
“The devastation families are facing is unimaginable — yet in the midst of such tremendous loss, we’ve witnessed something remarkable: an overwhelming outpouring of generosity and prayers,&#8221; she said.
&#8220;Through our Buy For a Cause program, we’re putting diapers and wipes directly into the hands of parents who have lost everything,” Seifert said, adding that it was “an honor” to work with “the American people and our on-the-ground partners to meet these urgent needs — and to remind Texas families that they are not alone.”
The diaper company&#8217;s boots-on-the-ground partners, Operation Blessing, CityServe, and Convoy of Hope, are &#8220;working tirelessly to ensure these essential items reach families impacted by any means necessary,&#8221; EveryLife said.
At least 107 people have died in the massive floods that hit Texas on July 4. Many families with small children were displaced from their homes and are still in need of basic essentials like diapers and wipes. Rescue efforts for survivors are still ongoing.
&#8220;We are blown away by the generosity of our community already,&#8221; Seifert told Daily Wire editor emeritus Ben Shapiro Wednesday morning. &#8220;We have already seen over 420,000 wipes donated, as well as over 294,000 diapers — and I feel like we&#8217;re just getting started.&#8221;

EveryLife was launched in 2023 by PublicSq., an online marketplace that works to help “freedom-loving Americans” find businesses that align with their values and brands itself as a conservative alternative to Amazon.
The pro-life diaper company also supports pro-life organizations, donating diapers and wipes to crisis pregnancy centers.
EveryLife is growing quickly and now delivers diapers in all 50 states, the company said.
When the company launched, EveryLife released an ad calling out progressive companies for embracing anti-life values, such as saying they would cover the travel expenses for their female employees’ abortions.
“While so many companies are promoting what is wrong, we choose to celebrate what is right — life,” the ad’s narrator said. “Every miracle from God, boy and girl, black, tan, and white, planned and unplanned, gifted and special.”
Earlier this year, EveryLife also launched a prayer campaign along with prominent Christian leaders for couples hoping to have children, called “Praying for More Babies in 2025.&#8221;

&#8220;I have never been more passionate about fighting as hard as we can on offense to save the West,&#8221; Brown said. &#8220;It’s time for us to not just react to the insanity of the upside down we’ve been living in, but to build culture and a new American Dream together.&#8221;

“I have spent my career working with the world&#8217;s top media personalities, so I know talent when I see it,&#8221; Mike Richards, Chief Content Officer and President of Daily Wire Entertainment, said. &#8220;Isabel Brown is sure to win over the hearts and minds of the Daily Wire audience with her common-sense takes, elegant humor, and intellectual prowess.&#8221;
&#8220;She brings brainpower, pop culture fluency, and the kind of fearless fun that causes liberal tears to flow like NPR tote bags at a Bernie rally,&#8221; Richards added. &#8220;That’s the exact kind of chaos — we mean energy —we’re building at Daily Wire. She’s precisely the kind of voice we want turning up the volume at The Daily Wire.”

Born and raised in the mountains of Colorado, Brown joined the fight for free speech and conservative values as a pre-med student at Colorado State University. There, she began livestreaming and building a vibrant digital community she has dubbed the “truth seekers.” Today, she boasts over a million followers on Instagram and a fiercely loyal audience that’s followed her from classroom debates to cultural showdowns.
Brown is best known for her fearless pro-life advocacy, viral reaction videos, and sharp takes on pop culture, politics, and policy. The D.C.-based Isabel Brown Show, coming to DailyWire+ this fall, will be a daily destination for anyone craving substance with style, blending Americana optimism with unapologetic truth.
This announcement rides in on a wave of momentum for The Daily Wire: fresh from dominating the <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politics-news/how-ben-shapiro-conquered-maga-verse-trump-1236104674/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">post-election</a> podcast <a href="https://www.axios.com/2024/12/10/the-daily-wire-eyes-growth-investment-in-2025" target="_blank" rel="noopener">charts</a>, playing a <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/04/us/transgender-care-ban-tennessee.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">key role</a> in the Supreme Court’s affirmation of Tennessee’s child mutilation ban, producing <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general-news/how-am-i-racist-matt-walsh-1236008035/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">box office</a> hits like &#8220;Am I Racist?&#8221;,  <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/leftist-censorship-cartel-garm-disbands-following-musk-lawsuit-ben-shapiro-testimony" target="_blank" rel="noopener">leading</a> the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-trump-ftc-secures-landmark-agreement-to-end-political-collusion-in-advertising-industry" target="_blank" rel="noopener">industry-disrupting</a> fall of global censorship cartels, and the platform’s <a href="https://www.semafor.com/article/04/27/2025/daily-wire-to-open-dc-branch" target="_blank" rel="noopener">strategic expansion</a> into D.C., The Daily Wire isn’t just keeping pace — it’s setting the standard for conservative new media in America.
Before her time in media, Brown obtained degrees in Biomedical Sciences from both Colorado State University and Georgetown University. She&#8217;s currently pursuing a second master&#8217;s degree in Theology from the University of Notre Dame. In 2021, she published her first book,<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Frontlines-Finding-American-College-Campus/dp/1544519303" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Frontlines: Finding My Voice on an American College Campus</a>, sharing her encounter with radical leftism from the heart of America’s university experience. Her latest book, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/End-Alphabet-How-Save-America/dp/1546006257" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The End of the Alphabet: How Gen Z Can Save America,</a> makes a compelling case for why Gen Z is the last hope to save Western civilization from the upside down Left, and why we shouldn’t write them off just yet.

Daily Wire host Andrew Klavan’s “The Kingdom of Cain: Finding God in the Literature of Darkness,” hit the No. 13 spot on the New York Times hardcover nonfiction <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/books/best-sellers/hardcover-nonfiction/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">bestseller list</a> this week, showing, yet again, that readers are itching to soak up Klavan’s timeless wisdom. 
“<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Kingdom-Cain-Finding-Literature-Darkness/dp/0310368340" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Kingdom of Cain</a>,” which hit shelves on May 6, explores how people can obey the biblical command to “rejoice evermore” when the world is filled with so much evil. Klavan’s book quickly became the No. 1 book in Christian Death and Grief on Amazon before hitting the NYT bestseller list. 
“Delighted to tell you that ‘Kingdom of Cain: Finding God in the Literature of Darkness’ has made the NY Times Bestseller List. Thank you all for picking up a copy. I hope you come to love it as much as I do,” Klavan <a href="https://x.com/andrewklavan/status/1922789461164802089" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> on social media on Wednesday. 
The book focuses on three murders throughout history “and the works of art that reveal the nature of their evil.” First, Klavan highlights the killing of French con man Jean-François Chardon and his mother by the thief Pierre François Lacenaire in 1834, which Klavan <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/murder-madness-meaning-how-can-we-rejoice-always-when-the-world-often-seems-so-broken?author=Daily+Wire+Shop&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=2&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Murder%2C+Madness%2C+Meaning%3A+How+Can+We+%E2%80%98Rejoice+Always%E2%80%99+When+The+World+Often+Seems+So+Broken%3F">says</a> sparked “the beginning of a startling century-long dance between art and reality.” Then, the author shifts to the murders committed in the American Midwest in the 1950s by psychopath Ed Gein, the murders that inspired the novel “Psycho” written by Robert Bloch, which then went on to inspire Alfred Hitchcock’s movie of the same name. 
Finally, Klavan goes to the beginning: Cain’s murder of Abel, and how Cain’s presence continues throughout the Old and New Testaments. 
“The Kingdom of Cain” is available on <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Kingdom-Cain-Finding-Literature-Darkness/dp/0310368340" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Amazon</a>, and you can purchase signed copies of the bestselling book at <a href="https://store.dailywire.com/products/the-kingdom-of-cain?variant=42713621954620" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Daily Wire Shop</a>.
