| One of the four chief organizers for the massive Women's March that took place on Saturday is a, quote, Palestinian-American Muslim racial justice and civil rights activist named Linda Sarsour. | ||
| Sarsour, who also served as a Democratic National Convention delegate, was honored by President Obama's administration as a champion of change. | ||
| Fittingly, she also posed in Chicago with an alleged Hamas financier. | ||
| Fitting, because Barack Obama used to give speeches in honor of Palestinian terror mouthpiece Rashid Khalidi. | ||
| So, what exactly drove Sarsour's ire during the Women's March? | ||
| Here's a clue from 2014. | ||
| Quote, If you wonder why hundreds of thousands of women declared themselves brave for marching in favor of taxpayer-funded condoms while doing nothing for women abroad who live in abysmal circumstances, this would be it. | ||
| A complete lack of perspective. | ||
| Maybe one reason Saudi Arabia is happy to pay for maternity leave is because they bribed their citizens not to rebel against the autocratic regime through massive welfare payments. | ||
| Maybe another reason is because the government wants to encourage women to stay home rather than working. | ||
| In Saudi Arabia, as The Week reports, women can't get a passport without the permission of a husband, father, or other male guardian. | ||
| Most women can't drive. | ||
| Women are prevented from wearing attractive clothing. | ||
| Go to public areas. | ||
| If you go to those areas that are non-segregated, they won't let you if you're a woman. | ||
| Or even try on clothes at stores. | ||
| This is just another piece of evidence that a government big enough to give you goodies is big enough to take away your rights. | ||
| And it turns out that people who think Saudi Arabia's maternity policies, rather than their restrictions on female driving, probably shouldn't be a guide to female freedom in the United States. | ||
| But the left would prefer never to focus on such matters, since that would obligate them to favor westernism rather than multiculturalism abroad as well as at home. | ||
| So much for the Women's March. | ||
| I'm Ben Shapiro. | ||
| This is The Ben Shapiro Show. | ||
| So many, so many things to get to today. | ||
| I am so excited about all of it. | ||
| First, the left had a very strong reaction to Donald Trump being sworn in on Friday, and it was all available in this little nutshell video. | ||
| I think this embodied the primal fear of so many folks on the left, the outrage, and also I couldn't stop laughing at this for several days. | ||
| This is, just watch. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is the presidential inauguration from NPR News, and you can hear the 21 gun salute. | |
| In the background, another signal that for all of that resistance, for all of that opposition, Donald J. Trump is now President of the United States. | ||
| Darth Vader no from this lady. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's spectacular. | ||
| So she waits until Trump gets inaugurated and then the no screaming to the sky. | ||
| Yeah, I'm sure this is going to win people over. | ||
| I'm sure that she just defeated Trump. | ||
| Trump isn't going to be president anymore. | ||
| Because this crazy lady, is that a dude or a lady? | ||
| I assume that's a lady, is screaming to the sky about Donald Trump. | ||
| So all of that is spectacular. | ||
| Okay, so before we jump into the substance of the day, and there's so much to get to, we have to say thank you to our sponsors over at Blue Apron. | ||
| So, several years ago my wife said to me, you know what the most annoying thing about cooking is? | ||
| The shopping. | ||
| The most annoying thing is the shopping. | ||
| Picking the recipe and then having to go out and shop and figure out what sort of portions to get and where to get the best ingredients. | ||
| Blue Apron solves all of that and they solve the recipe problem too. | ||
| So what they do is they allow you to pick from a list of recipes and then they send you The ingredients, these fresh ingredients from the recipes for less than $10 per person per meal. | ||
| They deliver seasonal recipes along with those pre-portioned ingredients to make those great home-cooked meals. | ||
| And also, each meal comes with that step-by-step recipe. | ||
| It takes 40 minutes or less to prepare all of their recipes. | ||
| Everything is super fresh. | ||
| They guarantee that all of their ingredients are ready to cook or they will make it right for you. | ||
| A lot of my friends have tried Blue Apron. | ||
| They say that it's truly delicious. | ||
| A lot of folks at the office are big fans of Blue Apron. | ||
| In LA, pretty much everybody uses Blue Apron. | ||
| It's become a very big thing. | ||
| In Los Angeles. | ||
| Go to blueapron.com slash Shapiro right now and you get a discount. | ||
| You get your first three meals free with free shipping. | ||

| As I say, I know a lot of people who use Blue Apron and they really do enjoy it. | ||
| They love it. | ||
| It's not expensive. | ||
| It is very, very fresh stuff. | ||
| And again, those first three meals you get free with free shipping by going to blueapron.com slash Shapiro. | ||
| The meal cooked to order, but you're the one who actually makes it and the ingredients come fresh so it doesn't feel all gross like it's from a restaurant. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So much to talk about here. | ||
| Let's begin with the anti-Trump protests and the Women's March. | ||
| So, the left can't deal with the fact that Trump was sworn in on Friday. | ||
| And we'll get to Trump's inaugural speech in a second, because, as always, we like to be intellectually honest here at the Ben Shapiro Show. | ||
| It's something that we actually care about, so we're going to tell you the truth, not a bunch of crap that you want to hear, because if we did that, then we might have double the ratings, but we'd also have half the moral value. | ||
| So what we're interested in here at the Ben Shapiro Show is actually telling you the truth About what's happening in politics and in culture. | ||
| But first we begin with this truth. | ||
| The left does not know how to deal with Donald Trump. | ||
| So, at the inauguration, there are a bunch of people who go nuts and they start burning trash cans and they set a limo on fire. | ||
| You can see this tape of this limo on fire, this picture of this limo on fire. | ||
| There are rumors going around for a while it was Jesse Jackson's limo. | ||
| That turned out not to be true. | ||
| It would have been beautifully ironic if the protesters burned Jesse Jackson's limo in protest of Trump, but that turned out, I guess, not to have been true. | ||
| So they set this limo on fire, and look at how many members of the media there are. | ||
| They're just itching to create this perception like the world is burning, like everybody's going nuts. | ||
| The truth is, people are upset, but the world is not burning. | ||
| Nothing is going nuts. | ||
| It's all going to be okay. | ||
| The republic is pretty durable. | ||
| We've survived a lot worse than Donald Trump. | ||
| We've survived a lot better than Donald Trump. | ||
| The idea that everything is going to go nuts and cars will burn, everyone will die. | ||
| It's not true. | ||
| It's a bunch of crap. | ||
| So the left is burning things and if they think this is going to win allies, I don't know why they think it's going to win allies, but they did this and the media covered it up. | ||
| The YZ would be like, one burning car, 200 members of the media. | ||
| And you would see that, again, there were those burning trash cans. | ||
| I guess there were 219 total people who were arrested during the inauguration. | ||
| That's not a huge number of people arrested. | ||
| It's some people arrested, but the way that the media were playing it, right and left, were that there were these massive riots taking place in Washington, D.C. | ||
| Not true. | ||
| It was a pretty minimal number of people who were very upset. | ||
| Meanwhile, the media really played up this women's march. | ||
| So the day after the inauguration, all across the land, women left their homes and went out to march in the streets for something that we don't know what it is. | ||
| Honestly, I don't know why they were marching. | ||
| They were just out there to signal that they don't like Donald Trump or something. | ||
| No one knows quite why. | ||
| What do you want? | ||
| We don't know. | ||
| When do you want it? | ||
| Now! | ||
| So everybody, apparently, it was incumbent on everybody to bring a sign. | ||
| And they all brought signs. | ||
| A huge number of these signs were about abortion and also about pussycats for some reason. | ||
| I assume that the signs about pussycats were not in fact about pussycats. | ||
| They were just about Donald Trump and his comments on the Access Hollywood bus. | ||
| So some of these signs, you'll see like this one, is just sick, right? | ||
| It's a bleeding coat hanger that says on it, never again. | ||
| I don't know if these people understand irony at all, but you're using Code Hanger to kill babies, like a million babies a year. | ||
| So I'm not sure whether that's an anti-abortion sign or a pro-abortion sign. | ||
| If that's a pro-abortion sign, comparing not allowing people to murder babies in the womb to the Holocaust is a weird comparison. | ||
| That's one I haven't seen before. | ||
| Also, I love these ones that were produced by NARAL Pro-Choice America. | ||
| The National Abortion Rights Action League. | ||
| They don't like to call themselves that anymore because they don't like to use the word abortion. | ||
| But they produce these pre-made signs that say, keep your laws off my... and then it's a picture of a pussycat. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| A couple of points about this particular attack. | ||
| People were wearing what they were calling pussy hats. | ||
| Like pussy cats, but hats. | ||
| And these were supposed to protest Donald Trump, because Donald Trump is such a sexist. | ||
| If you want to drive Americans out of your camp, a quick way to do it is just keep saying things like pussy hats over and over and over. | ||
| And then talking about female anatomy. | ||
| A lot of these signs are super obscene. | ||
| There are a lot of kids who showed up to this thing, and there are a lot of really obscene signs. | ||
| Like, there was... We can look at some more of these. | ||
| Here's some more of these signs. | ||
| It says, we stand up for our human rights, planet, dignity, bodies, diversity, health, social justice, equality, America, women, environment, integrity. | ||
| That's a lot of things to stand up for. | ||
| And when do you sit down? | ||
| And then... | ||
| And these are some of the more innocuous signs. | ||
| We can see another another picture of the signs. | ||
| This is the people holding up signs of Trump just saying nope and we're watching. | ||
| But these are these are the not obscene signs. | ||
| Some of the really obscene signs like had full pictures of vaginas. | ||
| Like there's one that said read my lips but the the L in lips for some reason was just a giant vagina. | ||
| And then there was another one that said the patriarchy can suck my bleep. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right? | |
| And if this is supposed to make people feel bad about Donald Trump, I'm confused. | ||
| Half of the reason that the Trump tape was offensive is because of the casual way that he was addressing the female anatomy. | ||
| If you just keep shouting, The word pussycat without the cat over and over and over. | ||
| All that's going to happen is you desensitize people to the idea that it's kind of offensive to use that word publicly. | ||
| All you end up doing is just like your vulgarity is making Trump's vulgarity more acceptable not less acceptable. | ||
| But people in this women's march don't understand that or don't care. | ||
| The women's march didn't accomplish anything other than to make people feel solidified I guess in their opposition to Trump. | ||
| Apparently, Nate Silver did something I thought that was interesting. | ||
| He looked at how many people actually marched in various areas of the country, and what he found was 80% of all the people marching were marching in areas Hillary won. | ||
| So it doesn't matter, right? | ||
| It doesn't matter. | ||
| It wasn't like there's some big upswell in Ohio and Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. | ||
| All the people who showed up were in Washington, D.C. | ||
| and in Los Angeles. | ||
| Okay, so the Women's March happens and the media make a huge deal out of it. | ||
| It's the biggest deal that ever happened. | ||
| The March for Life is happening this week. | ||
| They will immediately ignore it. | ||
| The March for Life will have twice as many people in DC alone as this march had across the country. | ||
| It won't matter. | ||
| They'll proclaim that it didn't even happen. | ||
| They'll cover it on page 812 of the New York Times. | ||
| That is actually media bias. | ||
| And we'll get to the media bias in a second. | ||
| First, we have to point out also that the celebrities got involved in this Women's March. | ||
| Madonna said that she went to the Women's March and then she said she wanted to blow up the White House, which is acceptable language if you are a crazy old kook that has more Botox in her than Nancy Pelosi's entire warehouse of Botox that exists in San Francisco. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Shh! | |
| It's a secret. | ||
| But Madonna goes up there and here's what she has to say about the White House. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes! | |
| I'm angry! | ||
| Yes! | ||
| I am outraged! | ||
| Yes! | ||
| I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House. | ||
| Well, hold on. | ||
| If Ted Nugent said that with Obama there, how fast do you think Secret Service would be there? | ||
| Pretty damn quickly, right? | ||
| I mean, come on! | ||
| But Madonna can say it, and I guess people just assume the Botox has infused her brain and so she can't actually think anymore. | ||
| That's pretty amazing stuff. | ||
| Ashley Judd, who you remember was supposed to run for Senate in Kentucky, she hasn't made a movie since like 1932, I think. | ||
| She hasn't made a good movie since 1918, like the invention of the motion picture. | ||
| Ashley Judd was in it. | ||
| Was she ever in a good movie? | ||
| I'm not sure she was ever in a good movie, but she used to be a decent actress and very pretty. | ||
| Now she's just Ashley Judd. | ||
| So here's Ashley Judd talking about Donald Trump. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I am not as nasty as a swastika painted on a pride flag. | |
| And I didn't know devils could be resurrected, but I feel Hitler In these streets, a mustache traded for a toupee. | ||
| Nazis renamed the cabinet electroconversion therapy. | ||
| The new gas chambers shaming the gay out of America, turning rainbows into suicide notes i am not as nasty as racism fraud conflict of interest homophobia sexual assault transphobia white supremacy you can stop her there because she's crazy and we're running out of time | ||
| so ashley judd says that the toupee is the new hitler is the new hitler mustache which which is interesting. | ||
| She also compares the gas chambers to electroconversion therapy. | ||
| This is a myth that they've been purveying about Mike Pence. | ||
| It's not true. | ||
| The idea that he's in support of electrocuting gay kids. | ||
| But she's saying all this stuff, and again, if they think that this is somehow going to win them converts, I don't know who the hell they're talking to. | ||
| Who are they talking to? | ||
| Dude, does Shia LaBeouf think he's winning converts to the anti-Trump cause with behavior like this? | ||
| Here's Shia LaBeouf, fresh off being dragged out of a Broadway show because he's totally insane, screaming at this party. | ||
| This is his best performance since at least Transformers 2. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Here is Shia LaBeouf. | |
| - The existence of the white people. - He will not divide us. - He will not divide us. - He will not divide us. - Oh, just not divide us. - He will not divide us. | ||
| He will not divide us! | ||
| Shia LaBeouf having a good time over here. | ||
| So, yes, I can't imagine that Americans are not paying attention to, I can't imagine that Americans are ignoring all of this stuff. | ||
| They're paying attention and they're going, if this is how the left responds, I thought that Trump was supposed to be crazy, right? | ||
| Trump was supposed to be the nutcase. | ||
| Uh-huh. | ||
| Uh-huh. | ||
| Yeah, you're making it real difficult for Americans to turn away from Trump when you act like this, gang. | ||
| Okay, we have to say thank you to another advertiser, and then we'll get to Trump's inaugural which I want to talk about in an honest way. | ||

| Trump inaugural and then we'll sign off. | ||
| But first, I want to give a quick note on the Trump inaugural address to folks who have been waiting. | ||
| So it makes me sad we didn't have Friday shows yet that I couldn't respond immediately to the Trump inaugural. | ||
| But of course, the biggest takeaway was the fact that Donald Trump actually channeled Bane from Batman in the middle of this speech. | ||
| This is the actual mashup. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And giving it back to you, the people. | |
| And we give it back to you, the people. | ||
| It actually is a direct quote, which is amazing. | ||
| But here's the thing. | ||
| Here's the thing. | ||
| This is obviously facetious. | ||
| Trump is not Bain. | ||
| But the sort of populism that Trump was espousing, this nationalist populism, has nothing to do with conservatism. | ||
| And we're going to have to break on Facebook and on YouTube, but you can go over to dailywire.com to see why. | ||
| We'll go through his entire inaugural, then we'll get to Sean Spicer. | ||
