The Washington Post print an op-ed coming after me. Media Matters rushes to join in,

and Rolling Stone celebrates Notre Dame Burning. I'm Ben Shapiro. This is The Ben Shapiro Show.

A lot to get to today as the radical left takes precedence. It's pretty amazing. But first,

in 2008, the U.S. national debt was $10 trillion. Today, the debt is nearly $22 trillion, and it is rising like a hockey stick. If you don't think that we are sitting on a house of cars, you are living with your head in the sand, but since you're listening to this podcast, you're obviously smarter than the average bear. So what is your plan? Can you afford another hit to your retirement like the last downturn when the S&P dropped 50%%, hedge against inflation, hedge against uncertainty, and instability with precious metals. Gold is a safe haven

against uncertainty. My savings plan is diversified. Yours should be too. My company I trust

with precious metal purchases is Birch Gold Group. And right now, thanks to a little-known IRS

tax law, you can even move that IRA or eligible 401k into an IRA backedbacked by physical gold and silver, which is perfect for people who might want to protect their hard-earned retirement savings from future geopolitical uncertainty. When you look back historically, you see that when the bottom falls out of everything else, gold does tend to safeguard savings. It has never been worth zero. Birch Gold Group has thousands of satisfied customers, countless five-star

reviews, and A-plus rating from the Better Business Bureau. Contact Birch Gold Group right now.

Get a free information kit on physical precious metal, see if diversifying at least a little bit

into gold and silver makes sense for you. The comprehensive 16-page kit reveals how gold and silver

can protect your savings, how it can legally move that IRA or 401k out of risky stocks and

bonds into a precious metals IRA if that is something you choose to do. To get your no cost,

no obligation kit, text Ben to 4747. Again, text Ben, my name, to 474747. Okay, so yesterday

She's a writer and researcher based in Brooklyn. She used to work for Media Matters. She also used to work for The New Yorker until she was unceremoniously fired. Why was she fired? Well, she fired from the New Yorker. She was fired or resigned from the New Yorker after she was unceremoniously fired. Why was she fired? Well, she fired from the New Yorker.

She was fired or resigned from the New Yorker after she suggested that a retired Marine was actually a

Nazi. You have to go all the way back to, well, actually, it's not that long ago. June 2018,

when this happened, according to the Tampa Bay Times, Tali Levin, whose tweet about a Pasco

Veterans tattoo implied that he was a Nazi, has apologized to him and resigned from her position

as a fact checker at the New Yorker magazine. But in another tweet, Levin also lashed out at the

Federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency, saying it unfairly targeted her in its own tweet
