MIAMI, Florida (TDR) — Patrick Bet-David and his co-hosts used the latest episode of the PBD Podcast to dissect an intensifying battle among prominent MAGA-aligned influencers — Nick Fuentes, Candace Owens, and Tucker Carlson. The Wednesday discussion spotlighted Fuentes’s recent media resurgence, marked by controversial feuds and incendiary positions.
Bet-David Pushes Back Against Anti-Israel Shift
Bet-David opened by noting a noticeable tilt among some younger America First figures toward anti-Israel sentiment — a stance Fuentes has consistently embraced.
“If it’s between the two, I’m going Israel over that,” Bet-David said, contrasting Israel with militant Islamist movements.

He emphasized his willingness to engage with a range of voices, from Candace Owens to libertarian comedian Dave Smith, and even floated the idea of hosting Fuentes for a future interview.
Oshana Calls Fuentes “On Fire”
Co-host Vincent Oshana praised Fuentes’s momentum, calling him “on a generational run.” Bet-David countered, pressing Oshana on whether he actually supports the controversial figure.
Oshana pointed to Fuentes’s deplatforming as a sign of his outsider status, noting that he has been banned from YouTube, had his bank accounts frozen — reportedly losing access to $500,000 — and remains a lightning rod for political controversy.
Fuentes’s History of Extremism

Fuentes, a 25-year-old far-right activist, has been widely condemned for anti-Semitic rhetoric, advocating violence, and calling for non-Christians to be executed. In 2022, he declared:
“We need to take control of the media or take control of the government and force the people to believe what we believe.”
He has also promoted restricting the rights of women, minorities, and LGBTQ Americans.
Broader Implications for MAGA Politics
The clash reflects deeper divisions within the MAGA movement over foreign policy alignment, particularly on Israel, as well as the broader image of the America First brand. Fuentes’s provocative style has kept him on the fringes of mainstream conservatism, yet his online reach and devoted base ensure that his influence persists.
Bet-David framed the past three weeks as unusually volatile for the conservative media ecosystem, hinting that the generational split — and the personalities driving it — could reshape the movement’s priorities heading into 2026.
Will the MAGA brand lean into Fuentes-style firebrand politics, or will mainstream voices distance themselves from his extremism?
