Ben Shapiro Resigns From Breitbart

The big news of the day is that Ben Shapiro and Michelle Fields are out at Breitbart:

“Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields and editor-at-large Ben Shapiro are resigning from the company over the site’s handling of Donald Trump’s campaign manager’s alleged assault on Fields, BuzzFeed News has learned.

Fields and Shapiro informed Breitbart News chair Steve Bannon of their decision Sunday night.

“Today I informed the management at Breitbart News of my immediate resignation,” Fields said in a statement sent to BuzzFeed News. “I do not believe Breitbart News has adequately stood by me during the events of the past week and because of that I believe it is now best for us to part ways.” …”

Two more staffers have since followed Shapiro and Fields: Jordan Schachtel and Jarrett Stepman.

“Stepman said in his statement: “Breitbart News has always been open about being a grassroots, conservative publication, but in my opinion we are working with or perhaps even taking direction from a presidential campaign, which is unacceptable journalistic behavior. I believe Breitbart News is becoming less of a news site and more of a propaganda organization dedicated to the Trump campaign.” He added, “Breitbart News has also now openly embraced the ‘Nationalist/Populist’ viewpoint, which is in direct opposition to limited-government conservatism that channels the philosophy of the Founding Fathers. It is becoming impossible for conservatives like myself to continue working for the organization, which now relentlessly pushes a perspective directly at odds with my fundamental beliefs.”

Jordan Schachtel has since removed this tweet from last fall:

“With my German-Jewish heritage, I will always remain a proponent for robust immigration.”

  1. Of course Breitbart didn’t stand behind Fields – the whole story was a hoax backed up with video evidence that it was a hoax

  2. The Jews are in a tizzy over the ascension of the Donald.

    It is a very clear example of their utter fear of nationalism.

  3. I saw Carl Bernstein on CNN doing the Jew whine, calling Trump a neo-fascist. Rather than calling these Jews neo-cons, or neo-cohens, how about neo-assholes? That might be more descriptive.

    • Neocons…..neoliberals……they are just two sides of the same shekel. Podhoretz unmasked himself as antiwhite first, which was a signal to the rest. Events are moving rapidly.

  4. The much maligned Chuck Johnson has a photo that clearly shows that Trump’s man was nowhere near the woman in question.

    Hunter you and Johnson should get together and compare nose prints.

  5. There was no assault.

    Michelle Fields is only good for one thing, and that one thing does not involve her brain.

          • What about when I call you by your christian name… #Stupid Racist CUNT. Jesus was Jewish you god-hating WHORE

          • Jesus was an anti-Jewish half-Jew. Spawn of a promiscuous Jewess and a Roman soldier. His ministry threatened both the Roman imperialists and the Jewish priests. So they killed him. Then, somebody came and took the body away. Mighty thin stuff to cut a world-Religion out of, and one can only admire the early Christians for getting away with it. Particularly that faggot Paul

          • Jesus was Jewish? How come he’s got a Puerto Rican name?

            A carpenter? Now if he were an optometrist named Sydney I might believe that.

            Seriously thought, he probably was the leader of the Essenes who thought the end times were at hand and miscalculated with a public protest week in Jerusalem that got him killed. The point is this movement died out in Judea but legends of it morphed into a movement in the Greco Roman World a century later that was a reaction to the cruelty of life there but also suppressed the noble virtue necessary to keep the thing running. Good and bad things came out of it, civility and decay, and that is about it for the topic for me since the impending question here is Trump and can he put this train wreck back on the track.

          • Who was the “somebody” that came and took the body away? One of his disciples? And why would anyone be willingly put to death for something known or suspected to be a fraud, i.e., His Resurrection and promises?

          • You are that homo Kike, that used to troll here, I see, via your post, that the mental disintegration of End Stage AIDS has almost completed it’s Holy Mission! Hail AIDSChan!

      • I happened to have had family friends growing up who were jewish and were nice people, democrats of course, but do remember their synagogues spook them with dread and danger since childhood. I do understand the need to keep this group out of the media and schools as a practicality but want nothing to do with mass murder and this nazi crap. Thats why I stopped reading all these stormfront sites a few years back, their poisoning my mind with this strange cult like nazi groupthink. Jewish media control is of course a question that you can’t hide from as their temper tantrum to the Trump thing is obvious, but please address the issue polite and soberly, and only where you’ll do more help than harm.

        • You are wrong. People are fed up and READY. This IS the time to point out the FACT that Jews are doing everything short of assassination – which will be next – to take down Trump, because the Tribe Satan regard him as threat to their absolute control over America, and thus the world. JEWS have committed mass murder, through the centuries, and their REAL history needs to be pointed out again and again. Not just to help Whites – Jews are a flesh eating bacteria to ANY Host they infest.
          This “polite” modus operandi is WHY we’ve been herded to the edge of extinction. You don’t use kid gloves and tea time manners on aggressive, remorseless predators. KIKES are repeatedly threatening to kill Trump, calling for his murder , calling for the murder of his followers – and you are bleating about being “polite and soberly”?
          WHY do you want to keep using the tactics that are PROVEN losers?

          • You are right Denise. I have waited a long time. I have seen them before, but all they do is run. They are like watercolors, all they do is run. Hopefully with England and the USA fed up with this raw sewage, they no longer have any place to run to and hide again. Hitler was a good man, but way too soft. He loved animals and children and of course his beknighted Mother, but what you need is a Ruthless barbarian. A Jenghis Khan that shows no quarter, but with the eloquence and manners of Julius Caesar, an equally ruthless leader. Let us dispense with pleasantries. I didn’t start this War but by the Lord God I will finish it this time.

      • You know it is possible that a ruthless guy whacked on meth and pissed as hell that he was going to lose the war gave the order for his men to secretly kill as many as they can? Especially if he truly believed they were as dangerous as he made them out to be in his book? Justifying the Holocaust just isn’t going to play in 2016.

          • Things are moving very fast now, this may well be a long hot summer with anti Trump riots merging in with the BLM riots to follow with a convention that may eclipse 1968. Whether things will again quiet down in 2017 remains to be seen. The Trump thing has woken up and radicalized about a 1/3rd of whites who now don’t seem to care what the media says, they know they are being lied to. The more open minded may well now be ready for a Kevin MacDonald explanation of why our elites seem so eager to betray us. An elite disproportionately composed of Jews who are as afraid of populism as Dracula is of garlic explains seemingly baffling incompetence to look out for the national interest. What they don’t want is Hitler shit or saying this justifies mass murder.

          • The problem is that if you look on comments boards, most Republican voters think Hitler was a left winger. And I’m not sold on Adolf btw either.

            That’s a completely confused position. I Dunno if it’s just Hasbarat trolls saying it but you see it often enough.

            It’s the most subtle strategy the enemy have.

            Anyone got any thoughts on this phenomenon?

          • The problem is that if you look on comments boards, most Republican
            voters think Hitler was a left winger. …Anyone got any thoughts on this phenomenon? .

            Since Hitler(tm) is considered the Ultimate Evil, Conservatism, Inc., thinks it can make brownie points by chanting “We’re against Hitler, too.” This is regardless if National Socialism was more Socialist than National (or vice versa).

            It gets back to the failure of Conservatism, Inc., to challenge the Left on any substantive issue. Instead, they conserve what the Left pushed through 20 years ago.

          • True.

            I think an effective strategy might be “I can see why he disliked jews but if he ordered their genocide that was wrong.”

            Never fully admit the shoah happened. Plant a subtle seed of doubt. People who know they’ve been systemically lied to about one thing might be open to questioning more firmly entrenched beliefs

  6. I’m always fascinated by some of their names. Schachtel? That’s a new one for me. Perhaps this relates to a box where they kept their gold.

  7. Among the comments posted at a slate.com article about this incident is the following:

    “For those here defending Lewandowski, what is the legitimate rationale for grabbing a reporter hard enough to leave bruises?”

    In response to that, I posted this:

    “A court might find that Lewandowski had a reasonable professional concern–including a security concern–that the traffic there, in that somewhat confined space, keep moving and that he, in particular, not be separated from Trump. In the one or two seconds of video I’ve seen of remarks by Ms. Fields about the incident, she has exhibited a lack of social or spatial sense. She doesn’t seem to understand that she had gotten into the path of the traffic and that, lawful or not, Mr. Lewandowski’s contact with her was intended to move her out of it. Her having filed a criminal complaint about what seems as if it would be civil battery, if that, seems additional evidence of cluelessness on her part.”

    • Fields knowingly filed a false police report where she claimed that “teeth” were used in the incident. The video clearly disproved that. She should be arrested and charged.

      • Thanks for that info, Yellow Belly. I hadn’t heard that at all. I’ll probably be Googling it before long.

  8. BB is an excellent source of information(check it out).It is nationalist and pro-Trump.It just got a lot better with the resignation of three jews and a LIAR.

  9. I’ll post this again here in case you haven’t been following yet another so called “hate crime” at Northwestern University in Evanston last weekend where two punks spray painted penises, swastikas, the N word, faggot, X-ed out muslim students pictures, and to cap it off wrote “Trump” as their signature. Security footage led to the arrest of two Freshmen: Matthew Kafker and Anthony Morales. The left of course is going nuts saying this shows how dangerous Trump and his supporters are. I on the other hand was immediately suspicious of the hispanic surname of one of the defendants, why on earth would a hispanic be so pro Trump? Secondly the other has the very Jewish sounding name Kafker and it is very possible Morales is also Jewish as many Sephardic Jews do in fact have Spanish surnames. Many of their ancestors fled to the low countries and latter to England after Catholic absolutism took over Spain in 1492. Here’s the pictures of the perps:

    To top it off Matthew Kafker is a child of untold privilege, son of the Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Appellate Court.

    This is his father:

    Very Jewish biography and appearance, why would a Jew paint a swastika? He wouldn’t even if he loved Trump. Lets be frank, no Trump supporters would ever think defacing a church with penises and swastikas would do anything good, especially two kids smart enough to get into Northwestern. Two smart kids WOULD know however, that if you HATED Trump, the media would accept such a stunt uncritically as it fully fits their narrative. Unfortunately getting caught and doing a perp walk wasn’t part of their plans. Leftists of course are fooled, want to be fooled, or quite simply want to lie and are all over the blogs condemning these punks as “proof” of how dangerous Trump is and are the kind of people they most live in fear of. (Not dangerous hood rats who they really should fear.) When it finally comes out as a hoax I’m sure we’ll never hear about it from these same leftist rags and the charges will be reduced as if somehow faking an event to incite a civil war is less serious than a simple act of frat boy angry drunken graffiti. The very same people who want Bush Jr. locked up for faking us into war will then think what these punks did was noble because they were merely trying to bring attention to the dangers of “racism” Trump represents.

  10. “With my German-Jewish heritage, I will always remain a proponent for robust immigration.”

    Brings up a question, is the motive for mass immigration selfish empathy, thinking “what if I need to flee somewhere someday like in the 30s?” or is it purely vandalism thinking deep down that “bringing in 3rd world slumdwelllers who don’t wash their hands after using the toilet will really serve these rednecks right.” I know that part of me loves seeing the shocked reaction on peoples faces when I tell them to go check out the zombietime up your alley webpage if you don’t believe me when I tell you gays don’t really want to get married and raise kids in the suburbs. Seeing their bug eyed jaws drop at the site of those filthy old queer grandpas blowing each other on a crowded San Francisco public street is so priceless it’s worthy of a Mastercard commercial. Do Jews foist homosexuality so vociferously on the public out of an empathy for the outsider? Or do they know it’s the nastiest most offensive thing out there and do it to spite Ned Flanders and Family as a wicked practical joke?

    • NY/Hollywood mediated Kosher Culture of Death – abortion, porn, faggotry, feminism – is expressly intended to collapse White reproduction. And it has worked. Whites have been a birth-minority in America for some time and, under the year-after-year impact of 7,000 legal/illegal non-Whites entering the country everyday, will be an actual minority by the late 2020’s. Facing an amalgam of Blacks, mestizos, Yellows, and Muslims wirepulled by lethally-hostile Jews

  11. Breitbart does seem to have an internal personality conflict going on . It is pro-Jew and pro Israel but it does like Trump,who of which the Jews detest. Are white non-Jew staffers at Breitbart growing a sense of common white Christian loyalty??

  12. Breitbart News has also now openly embraced the
    ‘Nationalist/Populist’ viewpoint, which is in direct opposition to
    limited-government conservatism that channels the philosophy of the
    Founding Fathers. It is becoming impossible for conservatives like
    myself to continue working for the organization, which now relentlessly
    pushes a perspective directly at odds with my fundamental beliefs.”

    Exactly how have Bush, Rubio, Cruz, McCain, et alia limited government? Have they restored states’ rights? Rolled back violations of the Bill of Rights (like campus speech codes or asset forfeiture)? Have they faithfully executed the law insofar as immigration is concerned? Or bothered to get Congress to declare war before they send in the armed forces? How about balancing the budget or abolishing the Department of Education? Are they even going to defend, say, Jefferson or Washington against those who would decry the Founding Fathers as slave holders?

    Since the 1980s Conservatism, Inc., has claimed that the next Republican candidate would bring about the promised land of limited government. They have failed and failed miserably. They’ve also failed to attack the Left for its growth of government and endless violations of Americans’ rights.

    Are Conservatives, Inc., living in a dreamland? Or are they just another branch of the fraud branded “American Politics?”

  13. ‘Ben Shapiro @benshapiro
    Our likely nominee is a sexist asshat’

    Ha ha ha.
    Seriously, how can anyone object to ovening this little creep?

  14. in hindsight this article looks off base. Milo was there at least in 2015. Shapiro has ideological flaws, but he’s not detestable like Milo. Him leaving wasn’t at all an opening for single Jewish cause types.
