BEN SHAPIRO (HOST): A clip came out of Joe Biden walking through Kyiv with Volodymyr Zelensky and the air raid sirens go off. It's curious. It's weird. They don't even break, nobody even for a second in the press pool like looks around.
Like normally when the air raid sirens go off – and I've been in countries when air raid sirens have gone off. I was in Jerusalem last year, the air raid sirens didn't actually go off in Jerusalem but you were checking your phone consistently for like where are the rocket attacks falling? People tend to have a tendency when a giant noise goes off that says you should get to shelter, people at least tend to look in the air. In this clip, nobody looks in the air. There's a reason for that as we'll explain in just a moment.
...
SHAPIRO: Well, there's only a couple of problems that clip. One, again, nobody looks in the air while the air raid sirens are going off. The second is that a CNN reporter then went on the air and he's like, oh, yeah, by the way, we haven't heard you an air raid siren in Kyiv for like five weeks. Literally, the only moment I've heard an air raid siren for the last five weeks has been when Joe Biden walked outside with Volodymyr Zelensky, which sort of suggests what they really wanted was a photo op of big, brave Joe Biden, dark aviator glasses, Dark Brandon walking around Kyiv with the air raid sirens going off like Winston Churchill in the rubble of London or something. There was a reporter from CNN pointing out the oddity of this.

SHAPIRO: Oh weird, weird. Almost as though the air raid sirens were kind of staged. Almost as though. That's weird, is it not?
