Turning Point USA (TPUSA) has finally broken its silence regarding the barrage of serious allegations made by conservative commentator Candace Owens concerning the assassination of its founder, Charlie Kirk. For the past two months, Owens has publicly circulated various conspiracy theories, implicating members of the organization in Kirk's tragic death.
In a recent statement, TPUSA announced its decision to invite Candace Owens to a live stream event. During this broadcast, the organization intends to systematically refute and debunk what it describes as her unfounded and false claims. TPUSA previously refrained from responding to Owens' accusations, citing Charlie Kirk's long-standing friendship with her and hoping she would retract her statements. However, the organization now asserts that remaining silent is no longer an option, as it goes against Charlie's character.
Owens' claims are extensive and deeply troubling. She has suggested that Kirk's assassination was an 'inside job' and raised questions about the circumstances surrounding the Utah Valley University event where he was killed, labeling it as 'unusual.' Furthermore, Owens alleged an intentional delay in providing Kirk with crucial first aid and insinuated that numerous individuals within TPUSA were aware of the impending murder. Her accusations extend to claims of betrayal, financial irregularities within the organization, and even suggested Israeli and French involvement in the assassination.
Turning Point USA vehemently denies all of Owens' claims, dismissing them as "lies and innuendoes thrown with zero regard to the facts." The organization stated that Owens' continuous harassment has significantly impeded their ability to properly grieve Charlie's heinous murder. Blake Neff, representing TPUSA, explained their initial strategy:
"For a long time, our approach was to say nothing. We did that for several reasons. First, we thought her prevarications were so absurd that nobody would believe them. Second, Charlie followed a rule of thumb to not feed the troll and instead focus on the mission. Lastly, we did not respond as Charlie always viewed Candace as a friend and we were holding our hope that she would return that friendship."
Now, TPUSA is prepared to confront these allegations directly. They plan to host a livestream in Phoenix, where Owens is formally invited to participate if her schedule permits. During this event, TPUSA will present its evidence and facts to counter Owens' various accusations. The organization stressed that their decision to break silence is not born out of complacency or obligation to Owens, but rather out of a deep respect for Charlie Kirk, who they believe would never have tolerated such slander.
