Ben Shapiro getting all upset at the parade coverage as though he isn't used to taking part in activities where no one comes

Big fan. But, I don't think this is on me. Or us. In fact, a lot of us said this was coming and we were told to relax & the institutions would save us but a guy who wasn't legally allowed to run is the President and I don't think that has to do with us. Don't blame your constituents.

NEW: 12 masked armed men try to enter a homeless shelter without saying who they are. ICE agents park outside an elementary school, sparking fear and a car accident. Local police respond to a call about a possible assault, only to find ICE. Inside one day on LI: theintercept.com/2025/06/13/i...
