Candace Owens has accused Turning Point USA leadership of betraying Charlie Kirk, who was shot at a Utah event.
In a new bombshell claim, Candace Owens, a prominent American commentator, stated with “full confidence” that Charlie Kirk, an American right-wing political activist, was “betrayed” by the leadership of Turning Point USA.
The prominent Trump associate, who founded Turning Point USA at the age of 18, was fatally shot while addressing an event at a campus in Utah. Before his death, Kirk was engaged in a “Prove me Wrong” debate at Utah Valley University. Following his passing on September 10, Trump remarked that Kirk had previously informed him that he could potentially become president in the future.
Taking to X on Tuesday, Owens said she will be soon providing evidence for her claims and also naming people.
She went on to make a heartfelt appeal to all kind-hearted people who contributed to TPUSA to seek a refund, claiming that “You were lied to. And leadership knew.”
I received information last night that put the final pieces together for me.
I now can say with full confidence that I believe Charlie Kirk was betrayed by the leadership of Turning Point USA and some of the very people who eulogized him on stage.
Yes I will be naming names…

TPUSA ally launches ferocious attack on Candace Owens
A well-known Christian influencer recently blasted Owens in response to her conspiracy theories regarding the assassination of Kirk.
Allie Beth Stuckey, who was recently referred to by the Wall Street Journal as a potential ‘heir-apparent’ to the late founder of Turning Point USA (TPUSA), stirred controversy when she confronted Owens during her widely viewed online program, Relatable, on Wednesday.
“I wasn’t going to respond to Candace publicly, but I was genuinely hurt by her accusation that I don’t care about who killed Charlie because I expressed concern for the lives of people who have been implicated in her series on CK’s murder,” Stuckey wrote on X.
She also mentioned that “most of all, [she cares] about how Christians seek truth.”
“Just asking questions’ isn’t a justification for slander. The God who created us and weighs our words has a lot to say about how we speak and what we seek,” Stuckey added.
Stuckey has been invited to take Kirk’s place at various stops on his college tour and has also appeared as a guest on the Charlie Kirk Show following his passing.
‘Charlie was betrayed. By everyone,’ alleges Owens
Owens has made broad generalizations concerning those associated with the TPUSA founder.
“Charlie was betrayed. By everyone,” the American commentator stated on X on October 20.
Following Kirk’s death, Erika made a public statement pledging to continue his legacy as the newly appointed CEO of the organization.
Days later, Trump delivered a memorable eulogy for Kirk during his memorial service and offered solace to Erika, who was grieving the loss of her husband.
