Candace Owens has hit back at false rumors about her death, but in doing so, has reignited controversy over the killing of Charlie Kirk. Owens confirmed she is alive in a post on X, while sarcastically suggesting that if she had died, people should have blamed Israel.
In the post, Owens questioned the official explanation for Kirk's death and repeated her belief that pro-Israel figures played a larger role in the events leading up to it. Owens has repeatedly rejected the explanation that Robinson targeted Kirk because of disagreements with his views on transgender issues.
Instead, Owens argued that Kirk's growing criticism of certain pro-Israel positions made him a target. Her latest post continued that argument, suggesting that Kirk was more worried about clashes with "Zionists" than the motive presented by investigators.
The comments are part of a wider dispute that has divided some conservative figures, with critics accusing Owens of promoting conspiracy theories while supporters say she is asking questions others refuse to raise.
