President Trump's sixth, the DOJ on the FBI, leftist cry foul.

And did the Pope just actually shift Catholic policy on homosexuality?

We'll talk about all of it.

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

Oh yes, and I'm so happy to be back.

I had a wonderful three-day weekend because it was the Jewish holiday of Chavuot,

which meant that I was barred from electronics and couldn't travel and all that, which meant I get to spend time with my family and read, which are my two favorite things in the world. So I'm in a very good mood. And then I checked the news last night and I'm in less of a good mood. So we'll talk about why I'm in less of a good mood after checking all of the news last night. I do want to remind everybody, by the way, that we do have upcoming events happening in Dallas and Phoenix. Those are coming up in August. And you can go to dailywire.com slash events if you want to get tickets for that. We're nearly sold out, I believe, in both places. We're approaching sellout proportions, certainly in both places right now. It's only been open to the general public for a couple of days here.

So you've got to rush to get those tickets in right now. Dallas and Phoenix coming up in August. Check it out at dailywire.com slash events. Also, I want to say thanks to our sponsors over at Birch Gold. So right now, the economy is doing really well. The dollar is quite strong. But that means in some cases that the only place to go is down, which is one of the reasons that you at least want to hedge your bets with some precious metals.

I'm not saying take all your is one of the reasons that you at least want to hedge your bets with some precious metals.

I'm not saying take all your money out of the stock market and start buying gold and storing it in your attic. What I am saying is that if you haven't hedged any of your bets with precious metals, you're making somewhat of a mistake. And this is why you should talk to my friends over at Birch Gold Group. They have a long-standing track record of continued success with thousands of satisfied clients,

countless five-star reviews, and an A-plus rating with the Better Business Bureau. Right now, you can contact Birch Gold to request a free information kit on physical precious metals. The comprehensive 16-page kit reveals how gold and silver can protect your savings, how you can legally move your IRA or 401K out of stocks and bonds and into a precious metals IRA,

if so you choose.

To get that no cost and no obligation kit, all you have to do is go to birchgold.com slash

Ben.

That is birchgold.com slash ben again.

You owe it to yourself to have at least a little bit of your money in precious metals

to protect against inflation, to protect against all the sorts of volatility in the market,

to protect against foreign policy shocks and all the rest. Birchgold.com slash Ben gets you your information. Once you've asked all your information and you've gotten all of your information, then you can think about investing. Go to birchgold.com slash Ben. Those are the folks that I trust. All righty. So the big news, of course, is this blow up between President Trump and the FBI. So President Trump over the weekend tweeted out that the FBI had been surveilling his campaign

during the campaign based on stories that broke late last week from the New York Times that there

was an informant who'd been working within the Trump campaign to bring information about

supposed collusion between members of the Trump campaign and Russia. And Trump pointed back to his tweet early in 2016 in which he said that he was wiretapped at Trump Tower. Now, Trump himself was not wiretapped at Trump Tower. However, he did allege that he was surveilled during the campaign. It's not clear that Trump personally was surveilled during the campaign, but there were members of his campaign who were surveilled during the campaign. So the reason that I want to clarify all of this is because

what you're hearing from both left and right, I think, are overbroad versions of the stories
