Candace Owens, a well-known conservative commentator and former employee of Turning Point USA (TPUSA), the group run by Charlie Kirk, has made her accusations about Kirk’s death more stronger. She says there is a deep-rooted conspiracy that goes against what the FBI says happened. The FBI says that 22-year-old Tyler Robinson shot Kirk, but Owens says that “a much bigger ploy is involved.”
Owens has always doubted the official investigation, saying that the FBI is hiding important information regarding the assassination and that the government is covering it up.
Donor pressure accusations and Bill Ackman’s denial
Owens made shocking accusations shortly after the assassination, saying that Kirk was under a lot of pressure from pro-Israel contributors. He even said that millionaire Bill Ackman was at a meeting with donors. Owens said that Kirk was being pushed to change his mind about Israel.
Ackman quickly and strongly rejected the claims, saying that he had never pressured or threatened Kirk in any way.
TPUSA Employee Confirms Text Message Screenshot
Owens hasn’t shown any solid proof for most of her conspiracy accusations. But on Monday, she posted a screenshot of text exchanges that she said were from Charlie Kirk and seemed to back up her accusations that donors were putting pressure on her. Kirk is said to have revealed in the texts that he lost a big Jewish donor after inviting Tucker Carlson to an event.
A TPUSA worker later confirmed that the screenshot was real, which gave some weight to the notion that Kirk was having donor problems just before he died.
The New Bombshell: Kirk Said He Knew He Would Die
Owens made another shocking claim on Tuesday, saying that Charlie Kirk had predicted his own death.
Owens said in a video statement, “One more thing, rather explosively, three people told me off record—two people who have this in a written communication from Charlie, one who was a Turning Point USA donor and very much one of the white knights in this.”
She went on to describe the scary conversation: “Charlie Kirk said he feared he was going to be killed the same day before he died. He said to these individuals, “I think they’re going to kill me.” He didn’t say it to me.
Owens made it clear that the material she got came from the testimony of three distinct people. She also said she hoped these sources would “be inspired to come forward.” She ended by saying, “Those talks I had weren’t on the record… I respect that if I say it’s off the record, it stays off the record.
