- Candace Owens peddles rumors about Charlie Kirk’s death, despite no evidence
- Kirk’s pastor, Rob McCoy, slams Owens for spreading ‘gossip and innuendo’
- Owens claims Bill Ackman threatened Kirk over his views on the war in Gaza, but Ackman denies it
Charlie Kirk’s pastor has lashed out at Candace Owens over her conspiracy theories about the conservative activist’s death, saying Kirk would never treat her with such disrespect.
Rob McCoy, who co-chairs the faith division of Kirk’s Turning Point USA, spoke out against Owens’ actions, saying she had “peddled a slew of rumors and conspiracy theories” about Kirk’s killing. “He never operated nor entertained gossip or innuendo concerning Candace,” McCoy continued.
In a heartfelt statement, McCoy urged Owens to behave like Kirk, who he claims wouldn’t have spread similar theories if “God forbid this tragedy been hers.” “I only wish at this tragic time of mourning she would be the friend to Charlie that he was to her,” McCoy wrote.
Meanwhile, Owens has been spreading unfounded rumors about Kirk’s death, including claims that he may have been targeted because of his views on the war in Gaza. On her podcast, she even accused billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman of threatening Kirk during an “intervention” about his views in the Hamptons last month.
However, both Ackman and Andrew Kolvet, the executive producer of The Charlie Kirk Show, have come out to deny Owens’ accusations. Ackman described the Hamptons meeting Owens had referenced, writing, “at no time have I ever threatened Charlie Kirk, Turning Point or anyone associated with him.”
Tucker Carlson also weighed in on the controversy, criticizing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for his response to Kirk’s murder. “I was shocked and sickened by the reaction of – the ghoulish and really repulsive reaction of the prime minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, to Charlie’s death,” Carlson said.
As the drama continues to unfold, Owens faces criticism from all sides for her baseless claims and conspiracy theories. Will she finally take responsibility for her actions and apologize to Kirk’s family and friends?
