We have returned. Yes, indeed. We are back. And there is so much to talk about from Harvey Weinstein to a New York Times op-ad that targeted the Daily Wire last Thursday night.

Plus, we will be talking about Sergeant Bo Bergdahl, who just pleaded guilty to desertion and what that says about the Obama administration's honesty problems.

I'm Ben Shapiro. This is the Ben Shapiro Show.

So once again, there will be no Disneyland for anyone. I came back and things remain just as bad as when I left and in some ways worse. So thanks for that. Appreciate it,

everyone. Well done. We'll get to all of of the news there's plenty to talk about for sure

ranging from harvey winstein i i've not been able to give my breakdown on the harvey winstein scandal

because that actually broke after i left for vacation but i have a lot of thoughts on that

that go to sort of what hollywood is all about and what needs to happen if you don't want

harvey winsteins to be the future of the industry.

I also want to talk about some good moves that President Trump made while I was away.

Plus, I will definitely have some comments that I'm going to begin with about this New York Times op-ed

that targeted me personally and also targeted the Daily Wire.

But before we do any of that, first I want to say thank you to our sponsors over at ring.com. So, Ring's mission is to make neighborhood safer. The way that people tend to break into homes is they ring the doorbell and they see if you're home and then if you don't pick up, then they feel like, okay, I can break into the house and no one's going to stop me. Well, that is why Ring Video Doorbell is an amazing, amazing invention. They know that home security begins at the front door. The way that it works is that you ring the doorbell, and it automatically goes to your phone. So I can be on vacation in Hawaii, and I can pick up the doorbell and make it seem as though I am home. I can also call the police, set off an alarm from my phone. And so ring video doorbell, make sure that my house is safe, even when I am not there. But that's not where security ends. Right now, they have a new level of security they've added to the rest of your home with the ring floodlight cam. And just like the doorbell, it's a motion-activated camera and floodlight that connects right to your phone with HD video and two-way audio that lets you know the moment anyone steps on your property.

You can see and speak to visitors and set off an alarm right from your phone.

And again, when things go bump in the night, because the floodlight cam, you will know who it is, where they are on your property and all the rest.

It offers the ultimate in-home security with those high visibility floodlights and a powerful

HD camera that puts security in your hands. Save up to $150 off that ring of security kit when

you go to ring.com slash ben. That's ring.com slash ben. Again, that's ring.com

slash ben and you get 150 bucks off a ring of security kit when you use that slash ben at the end.

So again, ring.com slash ben.

That also lets them know that we sent you. Okay, so apparently all hell broke loose last week. And I was off for the last three days of the week. I want to start by responding to this op-ed because I've gotten a lot of mail about it while I was out. And there was a full op-ed in the New York Times coming after me personally, as well as the Daily Wire, from a woman named Jane Coates, Jane Coastin.

Obviously, I don't know her work very well, so I can't speak to the rest of her work, but basically the idea was that I am somehow a guy who only panders to the right, and this is the hallmark of the
