| 0:00.0 | Major left-leaning cities push a bevy of insanely backwards policies. |
| 0:04.0 | The White House prepares for the G7, and Bernie Sanders wants to spend all of your money. |
| 0:08.7 | I'm Ben Shapiro. This is The Ben Shapiro Show. |
| 0:15.6 | I have a lot to get to today. The late breaking news right before the show is the passing of David Koch. He's the |
| 0:23.1 | conservative billionaire. Obviously, he's become this bugaboo to the left, but that's because |
| 0:27.8 | the left doesn't understand who David Koch was. And if you watch the response on Twitter, |
| 0:31.9 | Twitter is just the worst place on Earth. It is just a garbage heap of humanity. It's horrible, |
| 0:36.4 | horrible, horrible. If you read the tweet, |

| 1:31.8 | you get a chance, harm someone vulnerable. I mean, this is the way that the left treats the |
| 1:38.7 | death of a man who gave hundreds of millions of dollars in charity to many of the institutions |
| 1:43.6 | they like. And they don't know anything about David Koch. All they know is that he's a bugaboo. All they know is that David Coke is mean because he gave a lot of money to Republican politicians. It doesn't matter that he didn't support Trump in 2016.
