Candace Owens is facing significant scrutiny after she indicated she would not attend an in-person event geared toward addressing the various conspiracy theories she has promoted about the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
On Wednesday, The Charlie Kirk Show producer Blake Neff tore into Owens over her amplification of “lies” and “innuendos thrown around with a total, reckless disregard for the truth.”
“Ever since Charlie’s murder, Candace Owens has leveled a flood of allegations against people at Turning Point USA, people at Turning Point Action, and people who work for this show. She has made them against some of Charlie’s closest friends and against some of his most dedicated employees,” said Neff. “Even if not everyone has been named specifically, though, Candace has effectively tarred everyone here with complicity in Charlie’s death by repeatedly saying he was, quote, ‘betrayed by,’ quote, ‘everyone.’ She has said Charlie’s murder, quote, ‘had to be approved by Charlie’s friends,’ and then suggested those friends might have her murdered too for quote ‘knowing the truth.'”
He continued:
So here’s what is going to happen. In the near future, there will be a livestream here in Phoenix where we address in a clear and comprehensive way the claims and accusations, the false accusations that have been made against Charlie’s family, friends, and the people here at Turning Point. We plan to walk through everything carefully and thoroughly. If Candace is available, we would sincerely welcome her participation in that livestream at our studio here in Phoenix. At this point, we believe the ball is back in her court.
Subsequently, Neff provided a time and date for the event on X, writing:
The livestream we announced on the show Wednesday has been set.
At 4 pm Eastern, 2 pm local time on Monday, December 15, a collection of Charlie’s friends will respond to statements made by @RealCandaceO, to set the record straight once and for all prior to the opening of AmericaFest.
We’ll be live-streaming from Charlie’s Phoenix studio. Our offer from yesterday holds: If Candace wishes to join us in person in Phoenix, she is welcome to do so. She can let us know by the end of today.
Owens replied:
Kind of weird how you didn’t e-mail or call me to ask about times or availability and chose to instead tweet this confirmation out at midnight.
Why am I learning about this on X?
December 15th does not work in-person and 2pm PT is also literal time I do my podcast LIVE everyday (which you knew)— but we will happily cancel the daily podcast and will join you guys virtually instead for the livestream on the 15th if that works on your end?
Let’s lock it in?
“Will also add that I am happy to jump on Charlie’s show any day before then virtually as well. I was serious when I said we could do it today even. Virtually I can make it happen pretty much any day because it’s easier to move things around with the kids and find someone to sub for my morning homeschooling,” she added.
Given Owens’s previous declaration that Neff and his colleagues could “pick the place” and “pick the time” for the event, observers were less than impressed by her response.
“Yesterday, we made it clear that we would be scheduling a formal response to the allegations and accusations you have made. We’ve decided that response will be delivered during a livestream on December 15th,” replied Neff. “Thank you for your response letting us know you will not be joining the in-person conversation. We will be proceeding without you.”

“This is exactly what she did when Ben Shapiro challenged her to sit down and have a discussion with him some years back,” observed RedState’s Bonchie. “At first, she rattled her sabre, but then flipped and started quibbling about the time and place. She’s a coward. Always has been.”

“‘[TPUSA] can pick the place, they can pick the time. I say we do it tomorrow; we don’t need to plan this.’ -Candace Owens right before rejecting TPUSA’s invitation because she didn’t like the place and the time,” wrote right-wing commentator Addison Smith, summarizing her reaction to this week’s events.

But wait, there’s much, much more:
You were invited to TPUSA HQ to press their leadership live and in person about their role in Charlie Kirk’s murder, but you can’t go because of a scheduling conflict? LOL.
Isn’t this what you have been pushing for since September? Time to put up or shut up. https://t.co/8MeO4Km1Yq

They invited you to participate. They didn't say that they would make it the Candace Owens Show and work around your schedule.
These are your allegations. It's incumbent on you to make the schedule work.
Kind of like checking spellcheck before typing the wrong base. https://t.co/QUDt0UylpI

Candace Owens never had any real intentions of debating TPUSA this was always her plan.
She wanted them to invite her on the show so she could then spin it as if they’re trying to set her up to be killed.
This is her next grift and It was so predictable.
Her fans have already… https://t.co/iydzqKhIuT

Candace says “anytime, anyplace”
TPUSA names a time and place.
Candace wimps out.
Got it. https://t.co/rgR8bM3HiE

aaaaaaaaand Candace already backed out lol. They "only" gave her 2 weeks to plan for it and thus she will refuse to meet in person.
Come on Candy, that's not how your best friend on earth Charlie Kirk would handle it….he'd be there. https://t.co/y3Eo1vkohs
— TheQuartering (@TheQuartering) December 4, 2025
Hah! I knew it.
Candace: Any time anywhere, let ego TPUSA.
*TPUSA names a time and place*
Candace: Not then and not there. That doesn’t work for me.

Candace declining to do an in person show because she’s only given a 2 weeks heads up?
Look, I know she has a huge show and missing an ep is a big deal, but doesn’t she talk about Charlie every day?
You’d think she’d drop everything and do this at any time and any place. https://t.co/1JjPqfcrmF

She’s backing out. Again. https://t.co/96RpMHxqPE

This is so dumb.
TPUSA didn't want to respond at all. Which is correct. They only responded because they were sick of you dragging Charlie's organization through the mud.
You don't get to dictate and approve any part of this. Especially not after saying any time any place. https://t.co/Xtt9zsDLa1

I looked back at my prior posts and I hadn't stated this clearly, so for the record: Candace Owens has become the single most evil person in the vicinity of the right and she has beat out some impressive competition on that front, quite handily
— Will Chamberlain (@willchamberlain) December 5, 2025
I do actually believe Satan has a hand in what Candace is doing to Charlie Kirk’s legacy.
When he was assassinated, an evangelical tidal wave was created that churches and pastors hadn’t seen before.
Now, that tidal wave is being drowned out by her insane attempt to destroy…

“TPUSA expects Candace to join them 10 days before Christmas! She has kids!”
Erika Kirk has kids, too.
Kids with no father- and their first holiday without him has been consumed by her lies.
Here’s the world’s smallest violin for Candace’s homeschooling schedule: 🎻

I bet an autopsy was done. But if not, is there REALLY any doubt about the cause of death? Of course not! But the Candy Butt Lickers will try to get Kirk’s murderer off!
To help with you all!
To HELL with you all! Typing from a phone sucks.
Maybe Charlie’s friends and family want a CONVICTION instead of CLICKS!
There is no second shooter and there is no evidence to suggest it. Let the trial play out and wee if there are any holes in the story everyone saw.
Owens seems to say anything to get attention.
People with no Biblical knowledge are pushing the replacement theology and pretending they do.
OK. I have not been up to snuff on her activities, so I need to get educated on her more recent speeches, endeavors, etc. So, for now I’ll have to give her the benefit of doubt.
I agree I don’t believe Tyler Robinson milled Charlie Kirk. If he did it wasn’t with a 30-06. Nobody that knows that gun believes the story. As to who actually killed Charlie i don’t know.
Bingo... and she said she would do it remotely... the paid zionist influencers are transparently on the take to cover for the laughable narrative.
LIES! ALL LIES!
It was a setup invitation for just THIS reason, so they could say that she “ducked” the event.
SHE DIDN’T, SHE HASN’T.
You don’t just show up to a hostile venue without first working out details. You don’t do the invite at midnight via a tweet, giving her 24 hours to agree, 9 of those hours wasted since the tweet was sent at midnight and Candace was unaware of it for 9 hours.
You Candace haters really need to watch her podcasts so you know what’s really going on.
If I were her I wouldn’t go there either! Its a setup.
Charlie was about to expose the stealing of MILLIONS of dollars from TPUSA (inside job) they couldn’t allow THAT! Then BINGO! Charlie gets assonated.
Just a coincidence. /s EVIL people at TPUSA.
There won’t be a trial... Bannon told you... the fix is in.
Because the conspiracy conference revolved around THE VERY THEORIES SHE HAS BEEN PROMOTING.
The fraud has been exposed.
I see you brought Candace talking points. You must also believe Sandy Hook was staged. Eh?
“She was in constant contact with him until he died. And Charlie was a good friend to her until he died”
That’s a flat out lie!! They hadn’t had contact for two years leading up to his death! Did Candace the whack job state this? Wouldn’t surprise me
There is something rotten at turning point. Money mismanagement, gay scandals, and other VERY shady and dare I say demonic things that will come to light.
Garbage! You act like the man dug up a wwII 30-06 relic. At 200 yards ANY competent hunter with ANY range time could EASILY have made that shot. Its effective range is 500 yards and scoped it pushes it out to 1000. “Nobody that knows the gun .” Puhhhleeeassee. I know the gun and could hit a gnats ass at 200
Nice try, mouth breather. Might as well call me a Jew hater while you’re slurping and serving your master’s Koolaide.
Spending your time speculating about a public crime and complaining that the police haven't done a thorough investigation of the Kirk shooting after the perp has already been apprehended and charged is idiocy. Is she working as the defendant’s lawyer?
And speculating about facts that are the subject of a criminal proceeding and cannot be made public in full is a waste of time. To this day, I am amazed at how many of the critical facts in the Kyle Rittenhouse case were unknown to me until after they came out in his trial.
Hamandace is the conspiracy nut. And dumb as a brick
How could TPUSA have control of the autopsy report? Not Erika Kirk or the state? So Erika Kirk is part of the conspiracy? I heard about the Israel accusation but not about the French paratroopers or Egyptian plane. These accusations are crazy.
Of course an autopsy was done, the head of security for TPUSA was on a podcast with Shawn Ryan, he debunked a lot of the conspiracy theories raised by Candace Owens and repeated in this thread and firmly stated an autopsy was performed shortly after the assassination
BTW, the head of security jumped immediately on top of Charlie Kirk after the shooting and accompanied the body to the hospital
