The Ben Shapiro Show

For decades, America’s leaders believed that making China richer would make it freer. Instead, they helped build the greatest strategic rival the United States has faced in generations. From Mao, to Nixon, to Xi and Trump, this is the history of one of the greatest geopolitical miscalculations in the modern era.

The Iran-US memorandum of understanding is apparently over… and we break it all down; Graham Platner’s campaign may be over thanks to rape allegations, and Democrats did Nazi that coming; and Candace Owens’ new theory about Charlie Kirk’s assassination is… wait for it… that I did it. Yes, really. Because she’s retarded.

When the national debt passes $39 trillion and a political class treats borrowed money as free, America has forgotten what its most-forgotten Founder knew in his bones: freedom isn’t free. Robert Morris financed the Revolution, bet the largest fortune in America on a country that didn’t yet exist, and then paid his debts in prison instead of asking for a handout. While Morris once staked everything on America’s future, today we’re mortgaging our future to pay for our present.

In the age of trial-by-mob, collapsing institutions, and a culture that confuses virtue with social media posts, John Adams delivers the diagnosis no American wants to hear: no constitution can save a people who have lost their character. When institutions begin to fail, virtue is the only thing left standing between liberty and tyranny. Adams forces us to answer the question we may least want to address on our 250th birthday: what kind of people have we become?

As Iran holds the world’s oil supply hostage and America debates whether to keep paying our enemies to behave, the same question Jefferson faced roars back to life: do we keep buying off our predators, or do we make them stop? Thomas Jefferson’s fight against the Barbary pirates teaches us a lesson we seem to keep forgetting—a free people that does not defend themselves will not stay free for very long.

Ben Shapiro gives his unfiltered thoughts on JD Vance's critique of free-market economics and Iran war hawks. Ben Domenech pours cold water on Tucker Carlson's presidential prospects. Cabot Phillips weighs in on how the midterms got even more unpredictable with loonie far-left socialists wiping out the Democratic Party. The hosts break down the Supreme Court's whiff on birthright citizenship. And Michael Knowles joins former top Trump DOJ official Theo Wold in unabashedly endorsing the return of the firing squad as a form of capital punishment.
