In an X space Monday, the Daily Wire CEO, Jeremy Boreing, told an audience of nearly seven thousand that he would not hire anyone who criticizes Israel. And such persons may be considered antisemitic.
The neoconservative publication outed itself well before Boreing’s announcement after the firing of spitfire commentator Candace Owens. The outlet seeks to do so damage control by mitigating the narratives behind Owen’s exit.

Other commentators, including Matt Walsh, have claimed Israel isn’t much of a topic of discussion and that reasoning doesn’t mean he’s a “shill” for Israel.
I rarely ever talk about Israel and when I do it’s only to say that they should be left to sort out their own problems without our money or involvement. If that counts as “shilling for Israel” than the phrase apparently has no meaning. https://t.co/Pfsb2vSEos

Walsh is obviously censoring his beliefs for the sake of the Daily Wire. National File recently reported on a 2013 blog by Walsh titled “Bow Before Israel (unless you’re an anti-Semite)!” He has not responded to further inquiries on what appears to be similar sentiments expressed by Owens. To Ben Shapiro, the work may even be considered more hideous and “antisemitic” than Owen’s commentaries.
As per Owen’s firing, Boreing skillfully evaded the questions linked to pro-Israel ideology. He did, however, subtly admit Owens did not violate any terms or rules of the Daily Wire. This makes it glaringly obvious that her departure hinged on her questioning of support for Israel and the wealth of power behind the Jewish Lobby.

BlazeTV’s Lauren Chen’s x space was originally geared toward the question of “Christ is King” being antisemitic. Boreing was brave enough to join the circle with paleoconservative Nicholas J. Fuentes and other dissidents while promising future talk.
Boreing also remarked that he had watched Fuentes’s content and did not believe he should be censored or banned by X. This may seem trivial, as Boreing has failed on some promises. Still, it is a glimmer at the convergence of truthful talk among conservatives.
Whether “top dog” Ben Shapiro approves is a completely different question, as is his post-Oct. 7th behavior mirrors one of a 7-year-old girl. Just take a look at his X timeline. Supportive Jewish NGOs may also not like this unfettered free speech, as even “always Trumper” journalist Laura Loomer zeroed in on the blacklists, particularly constructed at the Daily Wire.
I’d like to see @realDailyWire come clean about their blacklists. As I said on the Space tonight, even if you are pro-Israel like I am, you can still be blacklisted by Daily Wire like I am.
I wasn’t the right type of Jew and so @benshapiro called me an Alt right Nazi many years…

The reality is that these blacklists exist beyond media, as Jewish groups like Canary Mission and the Anti-Defamation League seek to squash dissent. Many America First journalists and commentators have warned those in Con Inc. without much success.
Candace, I warned you about the ADL, knowing they would come for you as an American Firster.https://t.co/ZQyDchMFoX pic.twitter.com/9pPwkFCUnW

Owens posted on X today that the Daily Wire had smeared Fuentes for “asking questions about Israel.” She continued, “Someone clearly fed me to the ADL upon my departure from the Daily Wire.” Owens believes they tried to connect Fuentes via the allegedly “antisemitic” phrase “Christ is King.” It appears she has awoken to the Right’s cancel culture and the smear tactics of these particular NGOs.
Matt Walsh: ‘Bow Before Israel (unless you’re an anti-Semite)!’
Returning to Boreing, his willingness to openly have a discourse with the Dissident Right is tremendous. This platforms the America First ideology to hit back on the smears and relay the truth.
It is not only that but the fact that a black woman — yes, a black woman — was canceled for her free speech. And remember, it wasn’t the White man, granting more ground to the Dissident Right and favorability to America First.
