The FBI later arrested the suspect. Ben Shapiro, 35, is the editor-in-chief for the conservative news site The Daily Wire, which he founded. He also hosts “The Ben Shapiro Show,” a daily political podcast and radio program. Shapiro is a graduate of UCLA and Harvard Law School. Between 2012 and 2016, he was an editor-at-large of Breitbart News. Shapiro is an Orthodox Jew. He has written at least 10 books, the latest being No. 1 New York Times best-seller “The Right Side Of History.” A video clip of Shapiro’s comments on “The Ben Shapiro Show” on April 29 recently went viral on Twitter when he said that Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar has “a lot of the same opinions about Jews that the white supremacist had in that manifesto.” - Quote :
