I do think that Candace used the term Christ is king in a blasphemous way that was carrying the Lord's name in vain, that was weaponizing Christianity against Ben because she was particularly angry with Ben and was making a tribal statement to put him on the outside of what she was saying.

indicating was team good guy instead of on the inside.

And I think that's deplorable.

I think there's a reason there's an entire commandment about not doing it.

But the idea that I would fire someone for being Christian, I'm Christian.

Almost everyone at the Daily Wire is Christian.

How does that make any sense?

Of the employees, almost all of them are Protestants.

The Daily Wire is a remarkably diverse religious environment.

And listen, listen.

When The Daily Wire started, you had the three partners, Caleb Robinson, Ben Shapiro, Jeremy Boring.

Caleb was part of a very particular Christian sect that upholds Jewish law but is Christian.

So it's a very narrow sect but very devoted, very devout sect.

You have Ben, who's not only Jewish, but from, he's Orthodox, he's as Jewish as it gets, very religious and very observant.

And you have me, who was a lay pastor for 15 years, including when The Daily Wire started and for the first several years thereafter.

So, religious disagreement in good faith was sort of baked into the actual fabric of The Daily Wire, and you felt it throughout everything.

By the time The Daily Wire was sort of at its peak of, you know, I don't know, 275 employees or something like that, there were probably three religious Jews working in the company.

All the hosts were Catholic or whatever Andrew Klavan is, which is like Catholic adjacent, and all the employees were Protestants, and that was just normal.

That was normal.

That was just sort of part of the DNA of the company, was a belief that we were unified by the political mission, which is the thing that brought us all together.
