Both Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens were once supporters of Israel but now all of a sudden or at least it seems as though all of a sudden in the last five years they went to sleep one night and woke up at Samite. Can you explain what happened?

Don't forget an insatiable appetite for power, and a deep sense of jealousy over others who are more successful or influential than they were.

1-Will you ever seek public office. For our sake, I hope yes. For you and your family's sake, I hope not. I thank you for always being a voice and sensibility that makes me feel sane in an upside down world. I left NYC 11yrs ago for Florida.

2- would you tell Jews when you thought it was wise to leave the US for Israel and what would be your key warning signs?

With the shocking increase in Anti Semitism in America and the West in general, what would be the tipping point for you to consider leaving the US?

What do you think is the most important thing that Gen Z can do for the conservative movement?

Hi Ben, a light question - if you had the opportunity to enter a fasted talker competition would you take it? i watched one of your run of the mill daily wire vids a while back and in the comments it came up, someone wrote "check out the bit at 11:09" or whatever and you must have rattled off a whole dictionary in about ten seconds! - BUT YOU COULD UNDERSTAND EVERY WORD! love from a DW subscriber, great to have you on again!

How concerned are you that the democrat party is moving further against Israel, as well as some members of the republican party, given support was previously bi-partisan

You said some despicable things in your 20s, some of which you've apologised for. How do we decide when to apply grace to young men who will always look to push boundaries and now more than ever their boundary pushing is recorded online for all time?

Many on the right feel, not without reason, that the only purpose in "denouncing" our fringe is to try to prove we're "respectable" to a left that hates us anyway. How would you attempt to persuade someone who feels that way that this time -- with the Tucker, Candace, Fuentes sorts taking over -- it really is different?

In Lions and Scavengers, the scavengers are defined as cowardly, but from their own perspective, I think they’d define themselves as really rather brave, standing up to a machine. For the college protest style leftists, in particular, how do you suggest persuading these people that their zealotry is misguided, and how do you think they steelman their passion without emotional arguments?

Ben, I am so grateful for you and the sacrifices you make to better America. The Daily Wire seemed to be ignored by the leftist media for a long time, in an effort to silence it's impact in culture, and now it appears to be the ultimate target by the those on the (hopefully) fringe right that have a different view of what conservatism and "MAGA" should be. How is the leadership in the daily wire working to maintain a united front (and within your media company) and how do you and the other personalities protect yourselves from letting the trolls and the rumors bring divison between you?

I worry that activists are being successful in disguising their anti-Jewish sentiments behind a critique of 'Zionism'. Where should we draw the line between criticism of Israel's policies and AntiSemitism?

What is going on at the Daily Wire? Candace Owens, Brett Cooper and it increasingly looks like Matt Walsh is off the rails and condoning antisemitism under the cloak of unity of the right.

You recommend your audience also listen to the "Pod Save America" podcast for balance, but I find them underwhelming. Who is the strongest thinker left on the left after a decade of woke purity purges? I'm pretty much down to Scott Galloway and Bill Maher.

According to exit polls, kamala got about 80% of the jewish vote over Trump.

My question, in your opinion, were the jews lying?

If the Republican party radicalizes in the same way that the Democratic party has—with the trademark concomitant antisemitism—then in the following presidential election we might see the pitting of a radical/woke Democrat candidate against a radical/woke Republican candidate. In this case, what will the American Jewry do? Where shall we go?
