Candace Owens Rages Over Memorial Snub: Inside the Controversial Charlie Kirk Event
SCANDAL ROCKS CONSERVATIVE CIRCLES AS CANDACE OWENS GETS CAUGHT IN WEB OF LIES OVER CHARLIE KIRK'S MEMORIAL
In a jaw-dropping twist, right-wing provocateur Candace Owens has been caught red-handed in a web of deceit over her relationship with the late Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA. The drama unfolded when The Scholarly Note reached out to Owens for comment on Thursday, and she responded by going live on her show, airing our request via email.
Owens, known for her sharp tongue and quick wit, seemed to be in full damage control mode as she answered the questions posed by our reporter. But what ensued was a tangled mess of contradictions and half-truths that left observers scratching their heads.
The saga began when Owens alleged this week that billionaire Bill Ackman had made "threats" against Kirk due to his shifting views on Israel, sparking a firestorm of conspiracy theories online. The rumors were so outlandish that even Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu felt compelled to deny them on two separate occasions.
But when asked by our reporter if she was planning to attend or speak at Kirk's memorial service in Arizona on Sunday, Owens took a surprising turn. "You're right, you got me," she said with a hint of sheepishness, before proceeding to reveal some bombshell information.
"I was not invited to speak alongside President Trump, and JD Vance, on the stage with Tucker Carlson at a memorial event," Owens revealed, seemingly admitting that she's been left in the dark about the planning of Kirk's memorial. But just moments later, she claimed that her friendship with Kirk had never truly ended, despite earlier reports suggesting otherwise.
"I was friends with Charlie, and we were not broken up or anything like that," Owens insisted, only to be contradicted by a former Fox News host, Eric Bolling, who appeared on the Patrick Bet David Podcast earlier this week. Bolling revealed that Kirk had indeed had a "quiet breakup" with Owens after she became too "down the rabbit hole" for him.
But Owens' team fired back, labeling Bolling's claims as "flat-out lies." However, our reporter pressed Owens further on the issue, and she seemed to concede that her relationship with Kirk was more complicated than she had let on.
As the drama continued to unfold, Owens made a series of eyebrow-raising statements. She claimed that Kirk's memorial service was being controlled by the White House and that President Trump was under the influence of "Zionists." Owens also alleged that she wouldn't be invited to speak at the event because her views were too radical for the administration.
But The Scholarly Note has obtained evidence that blows a massive hole in Owens' narrative. A graphic posted on Turning Point USA's X account revealed a packed lineup of speakers for Sunday's memorial service, including President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and several high-profile conservatives.
And if that weren't enough, our reporter notes that the venue for the event, State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, has a capacity of over 63,000. So much for Owens' claim that she was "not one of the five people" speaking at the event!
But the most stunning revelation came from Turning Point USA media personality Alex Clark, who shared on X that over 85,000 people had registered to attend the memorial service – a far cry from Owens' initial claim.
As the drama continues to unfold, one thing is clear: Candace Owens has been caught in a web of lies, and it's anyone's guess how this scandal will play out. Will she come clean about her relationship with Kirk, or will she continue to peddle conspiracy theories? Only time will tell.
