Conservative podcaster Candace Owens has raised concerns about a potential Israel 'false flag' operation amid the ongoing Iran war. Her warning came after claims surfaced on social media that several senior Trump officials had moved to fortified housing near Washington DC.
Owens shared the claim of Trump officials moving into military housing near DC to add context to her post, but the claims have been circulating since 2025. Top officials, including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, had reportedly moved into such accommodations due to various reasons, including threats.
Notably, Attorney General Pam Bondi had moved into military housing due to threats believed to stem from her work against drug cartels and her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files. The US and Israel have repeatedly affirmed their alliance in the conflict against Iran, and there is no evidence to support Owens' claim of a false flag operation.
