We'll get to more on this in a moment. First, there's something refreshing about buying things that are actually built to last. Not everything has to be built to break. Not everything has to be disposable. Not everything has to be replaced every single year. Some things are worth investing in because they actually get better the longer you own them. And that's true particularly of boots. Tacovas makes handcrafted Western boots that combine classic style with everyday comfort. Whether you're heading to a wedding, a concert, a work event, a weekend trip or just out to dinner, they make boots that fit the occasion. One thing that really stands out is the comfort. Every single pair is handcrafted through more than 200 individual steps, using premium leathers and traditional construction techniques. The result is a boot that feels right almost immediately. No painful break-in period, no weeks of waiting for them to become comfortable. Tacovas offers everything from classic cowhide and goat leather to exotic leathers like ostrich and caiman. Whether it's your first pair of boots or you've owned Western boots for years, there's a style that fits. And Tacovas is more than just boots. They also make premium apparel, belts, wallets, denim, other leather goods built with the same attention to quality and craftsmanship. The in-store experience is worth mentioning as well.

The preliminary hearings in the Charlie Kirk assassination case are now underway. All evidence clearly points to trans-loving gay man Tyler Robinson, the DNA, the text, the confession, the rifle. But that's not actually the big story today. The big story is that for the last ten months or so, Candace Owens and her fellow travelers have been claiming not only that Tyler Robinson is innocent, but that the people closest to Charlie, including his friends, his colleagues at Turning Point, and of course his widow, were either responsible for his murder or the cover up of that murder. This is evil. It's disgusting, clearly. Today we're going to go through and debunk Candace's twisted bullsh** and examine the effect of that evil. And we'll talk about what it means for the broader public that such conspiratorial garbage has found significant purchase on the right. Plus, we'll get to Senate main Democratic candidate Graham Platner allegedly being rapey again and why it may end his campaign. Plus, we'll investigate why Iran is apparently targeting me for assassination. This is The Ben Shapiro Show.
