Erika Kirk-Candace Owens meeting: When and where to watch amid Charlie Kirk death row
After a long-drawn row over Charlie Kirk's assassination, Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk has agreed to a sit-down with conservative podcaster Candace Owens.
Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk announced that she'll be meeting conservative podcaster Candace Owens in person. The announcement comes after a long-drawn row over Charlie Kirk's assassination.
Kirk was fatally shot on September 10 at the Utah Valley University and former TPUSA member Owens has come up with numerous conspiracy theories after that. They have included pointing at Israeli involvement, TPUSA leadership, and even the US military. While Owens has not backed these claims with any proof, Erika has in recent times called out these conspiracy theories. She even directly addressed Owens and asked her to ‘stop’ when appearing for an interview with Bari Weiss of CBS News. According to Erika, the conspiracy theories could taint the jury pool who are there for Tyler Robinson's hearing. Robinson is the 22-year-old Utah native that authorities have arrested and charged in Kirk's killing. However, Owens has refused to stop, using her podcast to keep spreading theories and launching attacks at Erika and TPUSA.

I look forward to a productive conversation. Thank you.” Owens replied she was ‘very much looking forward’ to it.
