Backlash for Candace Owens Over Conspiracy Theories After Charlie Kirk’s Tragic Death
Recently, conservative commentator Candace Owens has found herself amid a storm of criticism following the tragic assassination of fellow conservative Charlie Kirk on September 10, 2025. Kirk, well-known for his role with Turning Point USA (TPUSA), was fatally shot at an event held at Utah Valley University. As the news broke, many were shocked – and Owens has stirred the pot with her **bold** conspiracy theories surrounding the event that have raised eyebrows and triggered strong reactions.
Stirring Controversy
Owens has taken to social media to promote various **eye-popping** conspiracy theories regarding Kirk’s assassination. One of her more talked-about claims includes insinuations of Israeli involvement in the event, which many critics have dismissed as unfounded. Her latest theory focuses on an Egyptian Air Force plane, tail number **SU-BTT**, that allegedly took off from Provo, Utah, on the same day as the shooting. Owens posits that this plane is somehow linked to powerful decisions made regarding Kirk’s assassination.
In a series of posts online, she pointed out that this particular aircraft made its first journey to the U.S. on July 20, 2025, discussing its purported involvement in high-level military meetings with foreign leaders. What’s particularly interesting is that Owens claims key decisions about Kirk’s fate were made just two days prior, on July 18, linked to Kirk’s communications with influential friends.
A Misunderstanding Unveiled
However, things took a turn when Owens miscalculated the timeline of the plane’s departure. The aircraft actually left Provo at **7 AM local time**, which was well before Kirk’s tragic shooting, leading to some confusion. A community note clarified that Owens was confused about **UTC time**, mistakenly equating it to **Utah time**. Despite this miscalculation, she continues to assert that the plane’s flight paths warrant further investigation to explore potential foreign leader presences in the U.S. during that time.
Kirk’s Final Days
The atmosphere surrounding Kirk’s death has been intensified by Owens’ claims that he expressed fears for his safety in the final hours before he was shot, stating that three individuals reportedly received warning messages from him just a day prior to his passing. Speculation has arisen regarding Kirk’s finances and relationships, suggesting that backlash from Jewish donors over his support for another public figure may have added to his distress.
Owens is steadfast in her belief that Kirk’s death cannot be attributed to a **lone shooter**. She characterizes it as a **”military operation,”** despite authorities having arrested **Tyler Robinson**, a 22-year-old Utah native, in connection with the murder. Her portrayal of the incident has prompted sharp criticism, particularly regarding controversial implications made about Kirk’s wife, Erika, suggesting she may have foreknowledge about the events leading to the assassination.
Rising Tensions Within TPUSA
Many within the TPUSA community, including Kirk’s close friends, have condemned Owens for her reckless theories and the allegations made against Erika. The discontent has reached a fever pitch, with fellow right-wing figures, such as Laura Loomer, denouncing Owens for insinuating that Erika played a part in the tragedy. Loomer labeled Owens’ actions as **”sick”**, underscoring the significant backlash Owens faces.
Despite all the uproar caused by Owens’ theories, TPUSA has so far decided against taking formal action regarding her statements, with some insiders suggesting that doing so might only fuel the controversy further. The situation remains tense as various factions within the conservative community grapple with the implications of Owens’ conspiracy theories.
The Road Ahead
As the dust begins to settle, the aftermath of Kirk’s tragic assassination continues to reverberate through political circles. The community is left questioning not just the details surrounding the incident, but also the motivations and intentions behind the statements of influential figures like Candace Owens. The story serves as a reminder of how quickly misinformation can escalate and reflect the challenges faced in grappling with complex realities, especially amidst unending political tensions. So, as we keep an eye on these developments, one thing is for sure: the conversation around the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the subsequent fallout is far from over!
