Candace Owens announced on Monday that her show would be back on the air beginning Wednesday with a new “investigative series” targeting Erika Kirk, the widow of slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk, eliciting an abundance of horrified reactions.
The teaser trailer for the series shared by Owens on X begins with news coverage about Charlie Kirk’s assassination, but quickly transitions to clips of its subject, as well as critical commentary about her, “Zionists,” and Israel. There’s even a implication that the Turning Point USA CEO is implicated in a Romanian human trafficking scandal.
The series is titled “Bride of Charlie,” and its promotional banner depicts Erika wearing a crown.
Owens, who has promoted a wide variety of conspiracy theories about her former colleague’s death, had initially said she would stop if Erika asked her to. Over time, however, Owens began to subtly, and then outright suggest that the widow might have been involved in a conspiracy to betray her husband.
In the hours since Owens began to publicize her new project, much of the internet has united in disgust at her and those who have run cover for her.
“Everyday, there’s some new line being crossed by this lunatic that makes me wonder whether certain people will finally speak up,” mused RedState’s Bonchie. “They won’t, though. Not even this will be enough, and it’s probably time to start asking why they are so invested in Owens.”
“What would Charlie have to say about this? And what would he think of his so-called friends who can’t summon the courage to say it for him?” wondered The Babylon Bee’s Seth Dillon.

So he’s using his wife to take over the Turning Point USA operations by demonizing Erika Kirk?
What is wrong with her (Candace)?
Shooting the wounded from your own side is STUPID!
She’s probably wanting a Federal Goverment Employee to dust her mangy butt so she can have a Martyr’s Memorial put up full of coloring book pages, furry toy bears and flowers. IOW. A real idiot.
I must be always missing something when the internet is exploding all the time and I don’t even notice until days later when someone tells me the internet exploded.
I have no idea why Candace’s wealthy husband is doing what he is doing—my only point is that there is no secret funding going on with Candace.
It is right in front of our noses.
Candace Owens does not appear to be either criminally or civilly liable for anything she’s said or done while she pursues the “truth” about the murder of her close friend Charlie Kirk!
So, why are so many people following the herd in condemning her?
Exactly, whose moral code has she violated?
Imagine if Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens had used the murder of Charlie Kirk to unite the right against the trans-terrorist threat, instead of taking Qatari money to blame the Jews for literally everything.
Reasonable post.
Candace has presented some complex conspiracy theories with (imho) weak and at best circumstantial evidence.
I do not call her names—I just find her claims unconvincing.
The old rule applies—extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
It’s a non-issue to me.
They’re all crazy.
Ppl who think they’re not are shown to be a fool.
This is the third post claiming secret funding for Candace.
That is as wild a conspiracy theory as anything Candace has said—given that her husband is ridiculously wealthy.
Her husband funds her.
That is it.
There is no sinister mystery.
Her subscribers. I think she has plans to do something else so she's going to rake in all she can with this conspiracy nonsense then bail.
Whatever she's got planned must be out of the spotlight because she's burning her bridges right now.
Well said.
Candace Owens has a track record of accusing other women of wrongdoing even before she went over to the farther shores of politics. She accused Kim Klacik, a conservative black woman, of money laundering, tax fraud, illegal drug use, and misusing campaign funds in 2021. Owens formerly worked for Turning Point, USA, working with the group from 2017, right after her Damascus Road conversion from liberalism to conservatism, until 2019, when she married George Farmer. In December 2025, she released text messages that indicated that she had had a relationship with Charlie Kirk. You have to wonder if she is jealous of Erika Kirk.
Some of us are still capable of recognizing an extreme narcissist who is promoting harmful conspiracy theories for personal profit. Owens seems entirely without care as to the damage done to individuals by her insanity.
She’s the kind of person who makes the world worse, not better, and she does it under the delusion of self-righteousness.
I’m going to assume you never heard the police over the air traffic. Something is not right.
I can tell none of you people ever watched your podcast. I gave her a chance. Now I have questions. Maybe you all should too. She’s not the only one questioning the narrative. Erika Kirk is in the Epstein Files under her maiden name.
It’’s possible to dislike Erika Kirk and Brigitte Macron, too for various reasons, but still despise Owens and recognize that she’s a self-serving troublemaker.
She’s obviously got an extreme ‘issue’ with successful women who have gained high-profile status. She presents as an envious, spiteful bitch, and it’s only very thinly veiled.
She’s everything wholesome women despise in certain other women.
Agree. Total lunatic.
