I have a child, I have a brother that has severe mental illness who I take care of, I support my mother, and I support many other family members of mine.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
