Why are there attacks on the phrase 'Christ is King'?
All right, guys, happy Thursday. And I am so sorry that we are late. I obviously have been very honest with you about what's going on. I wanted to at first calm myself down, make sure that I approached this topic quite rationally. Again, there have just been another set of I would just call them bizarre attacks on the phrase Christ is King. They are coming out of absolutely nowhere as they were coming out of absolutely nowhere last year when they were being framed as anti-Semitic. And I want to discuss this thoroughly, you know, because I'm seeing all of you guys tagging me in all of these posts that are coming out of the Daily Wire management team. And so we are going to address them thoroughly. Welcome back to Candace.
OK, so let's start in the past. Obviously, today I was actually going to speak to you about Hugh Jackman being drafted into the Blake Lively lawsuit. But I'm glad that we have pivoted and it's Lent season. And for whatever reason, this just seems to happen again during Lent season, as it did last year. So for those of you that are new to my podcast and everybody, I guess, is new to my independent podcast. Last year, almost exactly a year, I was fired from The Daily Wire. I think it was March 22nd or March 23rd. And after we agreed to part ways within 24 hours, it might have been 48 hours, Andrew Klavan of The Daily Wire released a one hour video essentially accusing me of many things, but referring to me as anti-Semitic, trying to link me to Nick Fuentes. There was no link between me and Nick Fuentes, but the ADL and Andrew Klavan tried to sort of establish one.
his video, and they did this via Twitter, and then said that the most egregious thing that I had done was used Christ as king against a Jew. And that is just completely not factual. I've never once uttered that phrase at a Jew. At the time that this happened in March, I had not tweeted that phrase, I don't believe, since the prior November is what he was referring to. And I certainly did not tweet it at any Jew. And so an entire scandal was born overnight, really, when people just began going, what is this? Obviously, it's Easter week, and we are having somebody essentially try to make it sound as though saying the phrase, Christ is King, is derogatory in a circumstance if you utter it at a Jew, and yet that circumstance had not happened. And I take...
questions and people that attack my faith or attack the reason that I have said something very seriously. I really, I take it very seriously. And in the context that I had used the phrase crisis king was perfectly acceptable. The prior November, I was, tweeted it because the media was trying to get me to engage in an attack against my colleague and I decided to abstain and I said blessed are the peacemakers and I thought that I was choosing peace in that moment and indeed that certainly backfired anyways why are we speaking about this today well Like I said, many of you have noticed that there has just sort of been these increasing, if you want to call it commentary, commentary that is coming from Daily Wire management, Daily Wire commentators regarding things that I've said, positions that I have, or just appearances that I am making. And I would like to really leave the Daily Wire in the rearview mirror, which is why
When I covered these statements last week, when I went on Theo Vaughn's podcast and Ian Carroll went on Joe Rogan's podcast on the same day, and people were, some people, I would say a small minority, were apoplectic, even though I thought that the conversation was really funny. And I think also illuminating for a lot of people who are getting to see me as opposed to having me being caricatured by the media, just being able to see what I believe in, like what I believe in as a Christian. Obviously, that is where I stand, why I am against what Bibi Netanyahu is doing. And that's just not something that is going to change because people are calling me anti-Semitic. I have a Christian perspective on the murder of children.
