Neither Ben Shapiro nor Candace Owens has been shy about backing down from a confrontation. And it doesn’t look like either will start anytime soon.

The Daily Wire co-founder labeled Owens as “disgraceful” after sharing her opinions about the state of Israel and how it isn’t innocent in committing genocide against Palestinians. “I think that her faux-sophistication on these particular issues has been ridiculous,” Shapiro said in a now-viral video, adding that Owens’ statements make her “disreputable”.

As the video made its rounds on social media, Owens made a post to X, formerly Twitter, quoting bible verses.

“Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

“No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other,” Owens wrote, before concluding, “You cannot serve both God and money.”

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against…

While failing to mention Shapiro, the timing of Owens’ posts raised eyebrows. Her post was made just before 11:00 AM Tuesday, which coincides with the video of Shapiro lambasting her opinions going viral.

Mark Simone: Karl Rove Hasn’t Won Anything in 30 Years, So Why Is He on Fox News?

“And Rove, ‘he’s the architect!’. This guy hasn’t won anything in 30 years. And the only thing he ever did win — back in the 90s he won a bunch of races in Texas.”

As the first Presidential primaries approach, Republican challengers to Donald Trump continue to be pitched around the cable news landscape. Fox News analyst Karl Rove has been a proponent of former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC) and current Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL). 710 WOR host Mark Simone wonders why Rove’s opinion matters, and why he’s on Fox News to begin with.

During The Mark Simone Show Monday, Simone questioned why Rove is still viewed as a visionary of Republican politics when his record doesn’t stack up to the moniker.

“You hear Rove all over the place talking about Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis. Forget it. And Rove, ‘he’s the architect!’. This guy hasn’t won anything in 30 years. And the only thing he ever did win — back in the 90s he won a bunch of races in Texas. He won an attorney general’s race in Texas (and) a state assembly race in Texas,” argued Simone.

“He helped Bush in Texas — George W. Bush — and he was always part of the Bush team and was always there in 2000. I don’t know that you can consider 2000 a great victory. It was pretty much a draw. Bush couldn’t beat Gore with enough votes to win. Remember, it had to go to the court to win, the Supreme Court.”

Rove has served as a political analyst and contributor at Fox News since exiting the Bush White House in 2008. He is also a columnist for The Wall Street Journal.
