Description

This weekend The Jerusalem Post called for the Pope to condemn Nick Fuentes - the latest evidence that a man and a movement many would rather pretend was a purely online phenomenon has become a very mainstream matter. Conservatives are split between those who believe the likes of Fuentes should be buried and ignored, and those who believe the right is now dabbling in cancel culture - especially when it comes to Israel. Why did Fuentes get so popular in the first place? And is he causing more harm than good to the MAGA movement? Joining Piers Morgan to debate is former MMA fighter and Fight Back podcast host Jake Shields, ‘The Verdict With Ted Cruz’ co-host Ben Ferguson, far-right activist Richie Black and Rabbi Shmuley Boteach.
