Because the word "grifter" is misused every time. Just because someone states an opinion on YouTube that you don't like and they are getting clicks it does not mean they are illicitly gaining money or swindling people out of money through fraud.

Someone like Joe Biden meets the definition of grifter almost to a tee. He breaks laws and leverages the U.S. tax payer to get rich. Breaking laws is the illicit part.

This will hurt Daily Wire and especially Shapiro.

I can’t stand Shapiro when he gets all whiny and never really cared for the Daily Wire.

Mike Gallager just reported this as breaking news . Looks like it’s been out for an hour or two.

Terrestrial radio is on the job!

It's interesting how Shapiro has flatlined in the conservative punditry class whereas people like Charlie Kirk are on a meteoritic rise.

Word is, she’s been trying to move on from the Daily Wire. I would think this is a move she wanted to do. I’m hearing she might be joining Tucker.

She began her online life doxing conservatives during Gamergate. Then one day, she decided she was conservative.

Overall, I think she was a good thing, but like with Peterson, after she signed with DW, she basically disappeared.
Her shtick came off as a grift in the early days but she's matured quite a bit and has maintained some principled positions in recent years even when those positions hurt her viewership or threatened her career at DW.

He's not conservative at all. He was for forced vaccinations. He loves every war that he comes across.

No he was not for forced vaccinations. The Daily Wire even sued the government to remove the vaccine mandate. They were even represented by Harmeet Dhillon.

He was asked directly at a speech and said he was in favor of forced vaccines. I'll try to find the video

What did I miss about about Candace? I enjoy her content. How is she a grifter? You can say that about any conservative that has podcast. Not everyone has to believe the exact same things to be a “proper” conservative. Democrats sure don’t.

She started venturing off into more anti-semitic territory, or dabbled in what some may consider anti-semitic conspiracy theories.

Also, her and Ben had a back and forth when Hamas attacked Israel back in October...lots of friction was already in place before her recent interview with a Rabbi.

Which vaccines are we talking about now? I assumed you meant COVID, which he has stated many times should not be mandatory but encouraged.

She may have wanted to move on but this is a de facto firing - they made her life miserable and attempted to cancel her in every way.

It's kind of weird how Peterson's appearances seem to have changed since he went to DW.

Cant imagine working for anyone as insufferable as Ben Shapiro. No matter the subject of conversation he’s gotta be the smartest one in the room with his smarmy demeanor

Criticism of collective black culture and behavior is fine on the right. Criticism of collective islamic culture and behavior is fine on the right. Criticism of collective jewish culture and behavior is antisemitic

I believe that the US should support Israel in any way possible, but I can give a flying shat about “spats” between Candace & Ben or between anybody for that matter.
