Alright, you guys, happy Monday. Hope you had a good weekend. I expect that you're gonna have a good Monday because boy, oh boy, do I have a story for you. Because who would have known that bringing up Butler would open such an interesting line of inquiry? I mean, I was contacted immediately by people who knew the real victim of that evening, and it wasn't Donald J. Trump. It was actually a firefighter named Cory Comparatore, a story which features an actual widow who I am told still has some lingering questions about what took place on that fateful evening. Speaking of widows, Erica cried again on camera over the weekend, and it was deemed my fault again and again and again, every time. But you know what? After my memory resurfaced regarding her summertime anti-Israel stance, I cannot really be all that bothered with the Department of War's emotional asset. In fact, I'm rather peeved. Lastly, we FOIA'd Kash Patel's travel schedule for the days leading up to Charlie Kirk's assassination. I'll tell you why. What you should know at the top of show is that the response we got only deepens, um, my knack for questions as to why on earth this administration is referring to themselves as the most transparent administration ever.

00:01:45

LOL. Nope. Welcome back to Candace. Never stop asking questions. It's what keeps you free. That was something that Charlie Kirk expressed often, uh, to his great many followers. The organization that he built was actually built upon that philosophy. And it has since done a complete and mysterious 180. They don't want us asking any questions, um, specifically about Charlie's assassination. They say, or they're trying to present as though it's a sign of true friendship to stay mom, to not prod the positively absurd narrative. And that's actually pretty ironic because Charlie was a friend to President Trump. They let us know every minute of every day. And do you know what he thought? No. Do you wanna know something that he formally rejected? The Butler, Pennsylvania assassination narrative, assassination attempt, a narrative if you will. He did not buy it for one second. So credit to X user Crystal Smaland for digging up this gem of Charlie unpacking why he didn't accept the narrative. Take a listen.

00:03:06

The more we learn about Trump getting shot in the assassination attempt, the less it makes sense. This is one of the largest scandals in American history, probably even the same as JFK. By the way, if it wasn't for divine providence, Donald Trump will be dead right now. Two bullets went right by him, one of which hit him and he got shot. We now know that the shooter was identified by Secret Service 3 hours beforehand, that there was a roof unattended 120 yards away from Trump in broad daylight. The shooter brought out a ladder from his car that he bought at Home Depot, climbed the ladder with a rifle. set himself up. People saw him, Trump supporters. Police did nothing. Secret Service did nothing. He was able to set up a shot unobstructed of the president. How was this possible exactly? Was this malevolence? Was this just incompetence? This involved potentially dozens of people that were in law enforcement. Oh, and even one more local law enforcement climbed up the ladder and the guy pointed a gun at him and he just walked away.

00:04:12

Yeah.

00:04:13

Why wasn't there a call to take Trump off stage? Oh, we have a commotion. Take Trump off stage. Why didn't the counter-sniper team go off scope and not do their job? Why was there no drone reconnaissance or helicopter support? I'm just a layman. I'm not a military guy. I'm not in personal protection, but I'm also not a moron. Was this a setup? What's going on here? And the lack of concern from the media is so telling because there are many members of the media that want Donald J. Trump dead, and they don't want to get to the bottom of this. We were 2 inches away from one of the darkest chapters in American history. No one has been fired, no one has resigned, and no one will probably be held accountable. But this is one of the strangest, most suspicious stories in American history. Put in the comments what you think actually happened, because it doesn't make any sense.

00:05:07

Wow. Charlie, I couldn't have said it better myself. I feel like he just summed up the last 9 months of my investigation where nothing makes sense. Yeah, you're right. What was up with the security apparatus? What were, uh, his friends doing, right? No one called 911. Mikey McCoy didn't call. He called his wife. Taro starts recording him. It is so chilling to hear Charlie basically describe, uh, regarding Butler what we have all recognized regarding his assassination. Nothing adds up. Nothing is making sense. Yeah, we may just be the laymen, but we can think. We can think rationally. And a person who is acting remarkably suspicious is his own wife. So no, Charlie, yours, uh, assessment that Butler would be one of the darkest chapters of American history, uh, was wrong. In fact, your assassination is much darker and much deeper, and it may even include and feature Donald J. Trump in the story because we have questions about his, I don't know, lack of inaction. He asks, why didn't they fire anybody? Well, Charlie, I hate to be the one to tell you this, but your wife is actually going to offer your members in your security team a raise after your assassination, like she did to Dan Flood.

00:06:19

Nothing makes sense. The team being offered promotions after your assassination. Anyway, moving on. Buckle up, ladies and gentlemen, because we We are going on a journey, which actually begins on August 23rd, 2022. There was a man named Mark A. Lehty, and he died in a rather bizarre accident. The initial story is that he was in his backyard messing around with his burn barrel when something suddenly exploded. And they don't know what exactly it is that exploded in that burn barrel, but something did and caused a piece of shrapnel to hit his neck and end his life. Mark Leedy was just 48 years young. Take a listen to local news coverage of the event. It's being called a freak accident. A healthy, active 48-year-old killed when something inside the burn barrel he was using ignited, causing an explosion, sending shrapnel flying through the air.

00:07:22

It's heartbreaking. It's heartbreaking.

00:07:24

Chris Leedy is still trying to process the death of his younger brother, Mark.

00:07:29

He was burning papers or whatever. This was the story that I got. And something exploded. Something was in there. Something exploded and a piece had come up and, you know, that was it. I'm still in shock. At some point, I will try to put my arms around it, but At this point now, I can't.

00:07:49

The Leedy family still doesn't know what ignited inside the barrel that caused that explosion. How curious. Okay, um, his neck hit with a piece of shrapnel from an explosive. You can obviously tell that his brother has questions about that narrative, and he wasn't the only one, by the way. Mark Leedy's best friends had questions as well. One of his friends in particular who he had known since high school, did not fully accept the burn barrel narrative. The first reason was due to what Mark Leedy did for a living. Mark Leedy, not mentioned here in that news clip, was a supervisor for a company called Surefire Wireline LLC. That is in Kittanning, Pennsylvania. Okay? Surefire Wireline works with oil and gas companies, and they specialize in what's known as pump-down perforating for oil and gas wells. Don't worry, I'll explain it to you. You don't need to know much. Essentially what it means is that they punch holes, uh, so that oil and gas can flow through horizontally. Okay, now why am I telling you that? Why do we need to know about that? Because that technique requires the use of a very specific explosive known as PETN.

00:09:06

Think back to when, uh, you used to watch like Bugs Bunny, uh, the Road Runner, and they always had the TNT explosive. Well, things have been updated since, and now— the favorite explosive that is used is PETN. Okay? So Mark Leedy's high school friend, one of his best friends, did not believe that he had died because he just burned some random stuff in a barrel, because he knew that Mark had access to very dangerous explosives, and also that Mark knew how to deal with them, right? He was particularly careful with those explosives. He knew how to handle them, rather. And then there's this. Allegedly, Mark A. Leedy had confessed to his longtime high school friend just a week before he died that he had illegally taken some explosives from his job. The ATF was apparently investigating for this, investigating him for this. At least that's what was told to— what Courtney Fife, who was a former ATF agent, confided to somebody., that he had this confession a week before he died. By the way, just as a general question, why would any person want to steal explosives from work, right? To be clear, just a tiny bit, couple of grams of PETN causes a massive explosion.

00:10:25

I'm— explosion. I'm going to demonstrate for that for you guys in a little bit. Uh, so it begs the question, what could a person do with larger amounts of it? Is there like a black market for those types of explosives? Otherwise, why, why risk blowing yourself up, taking it from work, getting into trouble, uh, being investigated by the feds. Was there somebody on the outside that was seeking to buy it in larger quantities on the side? The answer is I don't know. What I do know is what happened on July 13th, 2024, just 30 minutes away, um, from Kid— Kidaneng, Pennsylvania. And this happened in Butler, Pennsylvania. Trump survived an assassination attempt. while on stage at his rally. The sad part is that Mark Leedy's longtime high school friend, who didn't exactly buy the narrative of the barrel, um, he did not survive. Mark Leedy's friend's name was Corey Comparatore. Yes, it was Corey Comparatore who Mark Leedy had confided his secret to, that he had done something that he wasn't supposed to. But again, I'll ask the question: to what end? Did he tell Corey more? About what he was doing with those explosives.

00:11:32

Sadly, neither man is alive today. As we know, Corey and his family had quite an odd evening the night of, uh, Pennsylvania— the Butler rally in Pennsylvania— because they didn't— they weren't supposed to be in the front of the audience to see President Trump speak. In fact, Corey had grabbed regular tickets for he and his family. They were amongst the crowd, so they were quite surprised when, while waiting in a large crowd, an unknown woman asked them if they'd like to be escorted to the very front. Who was this woman? Surely with so many cameras reporting live from the rally, someone must have captured this moment. Who was it that had the authority to make such a move happen? That's, that's, that's a big authority, right? Corey Imperatore, uh, then is shot in the head. It's worth noting that Mark A. Leedy is also friends with various members of the Crooks family on Facebook. That of course could just be a small town coincidence. We can't really extrapolate anything from that. I'm just mentioning it as a fact because it is one. Anyway, let's hit fast forward again. Just 2 months after the Butler shooting, um, Corey Comperatore loses his life, and then a never-before-seen terror attack is executed with precision, which involves PETN explosives.

00:12:55

On September 17th and on September 18th, 2024, there was a massive series of pager explosions across Lebanon and Syria, wounding more than 3,000 people and killing 12 people, including 2 children. I'm going to allow you to listen to these survivor stories of people who were not the intended targets. Take a listen. On a normal day in September 2024, Hussein Tainy was playing at home in southern Lebanon when an unfamiliar noise rang out from his dad's pager. [FOREIGN LANGUAGE] In another home in southern Lebanon, Sara Jaffal had no time to respond after picking up a family member's pager. She has undergone 45 surgeries in 9 months, with additional procedures to come, including reconstructive surgery on her face and fingers. She has lost 4 fingers in the attack, 2 of which are now fused together, and is waiting to receive a prosthetic right eye. While Hezbollah has admitted that most of the dead and wounded were its fighters or staff, The explosions also seriously injured many civilians. Iconic vibes zum besten Preis. WOW geht mit Euphoria in die dritte Staffel. Ein paar Jahre nach der High School wusste ich nicht, ob das Leben so war, wie ich es wollte.

00:14:24

Freu dich außerdem auf weitere Highlights wie House of the Dragon, Dragon und Wicked, alles ab nur 2,98 € im Monat. Streaming war noch nie so wow. Okay, so you should know that the pagers were rigged, as I told you, with PETN explosive. The intended target were Hezbollah operatives, uh, but what I want to draw your attention to is just the trajectory of their injuries, right? So these people, they heard the pager go off whether it was their dad's pager or their uncle's pager, they went to go grab the pager, they held it in their hands, and to get it to go off, you had to hit the okay button. Hit the okay button and it subsequently exploded. This is why it took off their fingers. In one case, it took off a person's nose, 'cause it means its trajectory is going from here to here. And in many cases, it took out their eye because they were looking at it. Okay? PETN. Exploding shrapnel. And of course, because of the shrapnel, they have, um, cuts all over their faces.

00:15:35

So we know who did this, obviously, because they were very proud that they did this. It was Israel. Um, how did they do it? Well, they interrupted the supply chain of pagers by creating a bunch of fake shell companies and selling the rigged pagers, uh, to people who were affiliated with Hezbollah. Admittedly, by the way, kind of genius. The thought of how they infiltrated was, well, pagers are a very dated technology, and the— there are only there's so many people who are mass buying pagers, right? Not many people are bulk purchasing them, so to speak. But the exact details of where they interrupted the supply chain, how they manufactured these pagers, how they amassed the PETN, or where they amassed the PETN explosive from, where that assembly took place of the RIGTEK, all that information remains unknown. What is known is how proud the Mossad was and is of their ability to infiltrate specifically companies and organizations. And I'm just gonna let you listen to, uh, one of the Mossad agents applauding their abilities to do just that following the pager attack of how they did it. Take a listen.

00:16:46

We have an incredible array of possibilities of creating foreign companies that have no way being traced back to Israel. Shell companies over shell companies who affect the supply chain to our favor. We create a pretend world. We are a global production company. We write the screenplay, we're the directors, we're the producers, we're the main actors, and the world is our stage.

00:17:14

So the company in Taiwan, Gold Apollo, did they know that they were working with people from Mossad? Golda Pollard, zero clue that they are working with the Mossad. And neither did Hezbollah.

00:17:27

When they are buying from us, they have zero clue that they are buying from the Mossad.

00:17:31

We make like Truman Show. Everything is controlled by us behind the scene.

00:17:36

In their experience, everything is normal.

00:17:39

Everything was 100% kosher, including businessmen, marketing, engineers, showroom, everything. That's just amazing. We create a Truman Show. We are the directors, the actors, the performers. Everything in your life will be fake, and we will be pressing play. It's just incredible that when I say it, it sounds like an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory. When they say it, it's just like, you know, we're taking credit for what we do. We're the best at this, and we're sophisticated, and we'd like to tell you here on 60 Minutes. Anyway, I want to also show you a graphic which demonstrates exactly how they were able to rig the pagers with the explosive. This graphic was provided by Reuters, who estimated, uh, that they used just 6 grams of PETN explosive to accomplish this far-reaching attack. Just 6 grams put inside of a functional pager. That's important too, because they actually had to make sure that they didn't put enough as so as to render the pager ineffective. They had to just put enough that it would explode Here you go. On that left-hand side, you can see where it's pointing to that— the detonation material. Tiny, tiny. You got the battery cell and the detonation material right there on the bottom, the PETN explosive.

00:18:57

It's a very, very thin amount. It's incredible. 6 grams. Why am I telling you that? Now, assuming that Reuters is accurate, um, we can then reasonably assert that 6 grams of PETN is not enough to confidently kill someone, right? They only killed 12 out of 3,000 people. You can also confidently assess that they would have to use more if they wanted to guarantee more fatalities, right? Um, I mean, in that regard, I would say the operation was kind of a failure because it demonstrated without question their precision, and it was psychologically damaging, no doubt. But in terms of real-world consequences, you don't want to just take off the fingers of your enemies. That's, or that's only going to strengthen their resolve against you while they are still very much alive. Anyway, it got me wondering, if 6 grams could take out fingers and eyes, how much PETN explosive would you need to guarantee a fatality? What would that look like? What would the size of that injury look like on a person? And so I decided to research and see if there were maybe some random YouTube channels that were dedicated to demonstrating doubling that amount, maybe tripling that amount, and seeing what would happen.

00:20:07

And ladies and gentlemen, I am not kidding you when I say that this was the very first video that I stumbled across on YouTube, just typing in PETN explosive. And it was just guys that were using 20 grams of PETN explosive within a tiny capsule, and they were— using it against bulletproof glass to see what would happen. And I want you to pay very close attention to what this person says because I could not believe my ears. I was freaking out. Take a listen.

00:20:42

20-gram booster, PPM charge. We're gonna use it against, uh, the transaction window to see what the results are.

00:20:50

I know, but I thought about it.

00:20:57

This is the first one that went the way I expected it to go.

00:21:00

Yeah.

00:21:01

I didn't expect the half-pounder to make a— make like a laser beam through the guy's head. It's about the same as a gunshot. This is NIJ 4-rated glass. Yeah, from a .30-06, it's about the same foot diameter.

00:21:16

It's about the same as a gunshot. From a .30-06. If you shot it against that bulletproof— you heard him correctly, I, I promise you. I just— that was the first one I hit. He decided— and same results as a .30-06. 20 grams of PETN mimics the punch of a .30-06 bullet. Unbelievable. I want to be clear, this video was not posted to prove or debunk any conspiracy theories. In fact, it was published back in May of 2025. Charlie was very much alive. That's a full 4 months before Charlie was murdered. This was merely just par for the course on a channel that focuses on testing explosives and guns. Um, there's no aim for them. They're just— this is what they do. This is how they have fun. So it is fascinating that they are saying it mimics the diameter of a .30-06 bullet, especially given the persistent conspiracy theory that Charlie's road mic was rigged with PETN explosive. I haven't much talked— spoken about that because I wasn't a PETN expert. Uh, until this Butler situation, speaking with people close to the situation, telling me about this strange set of circumstances and the possibility of some explosives ring, and I went, wait, what?

00:22:28

What, what are we talking about? Anyway, enough of conspiracy. Let's return to the facts. We fast forward now to February 4th, 2025, just a few weeks after Trump's inauguration into his second presidential term. Bibi Netanyahu enters the White House and presents President Trump with a gift. A golden pager, a nod to the Mossad's pager operation. I'm sorry, but why? Why? What is the context of that? Is that like an inside joke? Is it a threat? Because Donald Trump was not president when the pager operation took place. President Biden was. So why would he gift this to Donald Trump? American troops were not involved, so far as we know. Mm-hmm. Why would he gift this to Donald Trump? What is the significance of this? This is not a traditional gift. This does not make sense in a traditional sense. Okay? Like they give you something, uh, a samurai sword from Japan. I think they gave him a samurai helmet actually was the last gift that came from Japan. Uh, Saudi Arabia gifts like jewel jewelry and crowns. Um, Switzerland gifted a very appropriately a Swiss watch. Mm-hmm. What's up with the golden pager, Bibi? Frankly, it was crass and it was off-putting.

00:23:49

Children were murdered in this operation, and I'd like to think that America had nothing to do with it, but you know, I know better. We are, after all, supplying Israel with white phosphorus, the chemical to burn Lebanese civilians alive. Did we know more about the pager attack than we let on? Did we assist somehow in this invisible supply chain that was happening? Anyway, suffice it to say that Butler now fascinates me. Most of all, Dan Bongino's strange reaction to it, uh, Trump's reaction to it. He's satisfied. He wants it shut down. That's not how a man would act if it was an assassination attempt against him. Was it an assassination attempt, or was it an assassination success? Was it an assassination complete? I mean, perhaps the, the only good portion of this story is that I have it on authority— the widow of Corey Comparatore and the family of Corey Comparatore is not like Trump. They are not satisfied with the investigation. They are not happy with the fact that Secret Service agents, uh, never lost their jobs. They are not satisfied with the answers that they are receiving about how Corey Comparatore was killed.

00:25:01

Imagine that. Imagine a widow who has questions. And last I was informed, that particular widow didn't take over her husband's career in the blink of an eye. So like I said, imagine that. We'll be right back after a break.

Because Americans love sushi, over the last two decades raw fish consumption has exploded. Sushi bars are everywhere, grocery stores and gas stations sell it, and millions of people now eat raw fish weekly. But there is a hidden risk most people do not know about, and that is parasites. Salmon is one of the most popular fish worldwide, but it naturally contains more than 70 parasites. Most are tiny and nearly impossible to see, and they're making their way into the human body Once inside, parasites can hide for years while frequently laying eggs before any symptoms appear. This is why many physicians are raising awareness about parasite exposure. Dr. Peter McCullough recommends doing a parasite cleanse at least once a year as a preventative measure. The wellness company offers a hard-to-access Rx parasite cleanse, USA compounded ivermectin and ambenazole, which paralyzes the parasite's nervous system, then starves them. You can now get a more budget-friendly 45-capsule option that costs $250 less. Mm-hmm. Giving you 2 21-day parasite cleanse cycles. Same formula as the original, just a smaller quantity.

I also want to remind you guys about Pure Talk, because America does not stand for 250 years as a beacon of hope without the brave men and women willing to put their lives on the line to defend it. To honor those patriots, Pure Talk and its customers will raise $250,000 for America's Warrior Partnership by the end of July.

00:28:17

Pure Talk. So head to puretalk.com/owens to make the switch to Pure Talk. Again, puretalk.com/owens to start saving. All right, you guys, I am FOIAing around and I am not finding out, my friends. Like, I am not finding out at all. Uh, who knew that this tool would be so difficult to get answers? They can just say, we don't want to tell you. That's what it feels like, at least. So I requested Kash Patel's schedule, a travel schedule, in the lead-up to Charlie Kirk's assassination. Just another thread that I'm pulling at. Um, I don't know, because journalism, but also because there was this FBI plane, definitively an FBI plane, um, that landed into Salt Lake City, Utah on September 8th. So, you know, Charlie, remember he first went to Salt Lake City on the morning of the 10th, which I found to be very unusual that he would go there and do that weird restaurant interview, whatever it was, as his final interview. Um, well, there was an FBI plane that went to Salt Lake City, Utah on September 8th, and I— it's just interesting, that's all. Could be nothing, but it leaves Richmond, Virginia at 9:50 AM.

00:29:21

It gets into Salt Lake at 12 PM, and then it departs Salt Lake just an hour later. Really quick trip. Doesn't mean Cash Patel was on the flight, but you know, just doing a bit of journalism, ruling things out, asking questions. So here's what we requested, and we had to fill out a form which had to then be submitted. So we're just copying and pasting to you what we wrote because Like I said, it's a form submission. Uh, we wrote, pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, listed that I request copies of records reflecting the official schedule, calendar meetings, and travel of Kash Patel for the period of September 7th, 2025 through to September 10th, 2025. This request includes, but is not limited to, official calendars and schedule entries, travel authorizations, travel itineraries, transportation or flight records related to official government travel. Expense vouchers and reimbursement records, meeting logs, visitor logs associated with official events, emails or memoranda, uh, scheduling or coordinating official travel or appearances. I request that the search include records maintained by the Office of the Director, Executive Secretariat, Protective Operations Units, and any office responsible for executive travel coordination. To minimize burden, I am not requesting classified information, uh, protective methodology, sensitive security details, or personal private information unrelated to official government business.

00:30:39

Okay. Please provide responsive records in electronic format where possible. If portions of the records are exempt from disclosure, please release all reasonably segregable, uh, non-exempt portions. Identify the specific FOIA exemptions relied upon for any withholding. Thank you. Okay, fair. We just want to know where he traveled. We're trying to say a lot to just say these are 3 days. Whoever is in control of the calendar schedule, we want that. We're not asking you for classified information. We're not fighting you. We don't want to know where he was doing personally. We don't want to know what, you know, his girlfriend's concert was. If he's not on FBI business, it's not our business. That's all right. That's what we are paying for, to fly him around. In fact, we're even paying for his girlfriend's security. At least we can do is FOIA around and find out. Unfortunately, here's what we received back. Please be advised that 'unusual circumstances apply to the processing of your request.' And then we go back to, 'Here are what we can deem to be unusual circumstances,' okay? Um, number 1, 'There is a need to search for and collect records from field offices other, uh, that are separate from the FBI.' That's not going to be us.

00:31:50

Number 2, 'There was a need to search for and collect and examine a voluminous— a voluminous amount of separate and distinct records.' That's not going to be us. 3, there was a need for consultation with another agency or 2 or more DOJ components. That's probably going to be us. I think it's always 3, which will delay our ability to make a determination on your request within 20 days. So it's just an ability to delay. They could say, oh, well, it's one of these 3 things. We have to talk to somebody, right? So we're not going to be able to tell you back within 20 days. That's supposed to be a lot of time. It's supposed to get back to us within 20 days. Well, it involves somebody else. So we now have to talk to somebody. Now, for some reason, just me saying that I requested Kash Patel's records, which again is my right as a taxpaying citizen of the United States of America, for some reason this deeply upset Blake Neff. I just want to weigh his reaction to me merely filing an FOIA request. I want you to compare it to what you just heard from Charlie when things don't add up.

00:32:52

Here's, here's Blake Neff, then the new representative of the Charlie Kirk Show. Charlie Kirk Show. Hmm, really? Here's what Blickneff wrote, crashing out. Here we can see the latest thing that Candus will fixate on for the next 2 weeks as all-important, the key to blowing the case wide open so that she has an excuse to harass more people. Of course, when she gets bored or successfully extracts whatever thing she is looking for, which of course will be a total nothing burger, she'll move on to dismissing it as irrelevant or just stop talking about it entirely and move on to her next fixation. This will continue until people stop falling for it. I'm like the queen of not moving on, Blake. In case you missed it, this is why we are filing FOIA requests. This is why, despite, uh, Andrew Colbett lying and trying, uh, to, uh, I guess allude to the idea that we made up the email where Erica was called an emotional asset, we filed an FOIA request, then we followed up on our FOIA request, and we're still going down that path because I told the truth. We don't actually let things go.

00:33:52

In fact, you guys usually call me obsessed. Obsessed people don't let things go. And I also want to say, Blake, you're right, I am obsessed with who killed Charlie Kirk. Why aren't you? Why aren't you obsessed? Why don't you just rename The Charlie Kirk Show The Truman Show? I feel like that would be more appropriate for what's left over, whatever this is. It's like litter, watching you litter every single day. on his name, on what he represented, on how he felt. You're upset because we're holding our government accountable because we pay money and this is what we're allowed to do, to say, hey, Cash, what were you doing on these days? It, maybe it is nothing. That's correct. But guess what? It's my right to find out. It's not called harassment. In fact, I would almost say that the amount of taxpayer dollars that I get for absolutely nothing is a form of harassment. It feels like financial harassment. To all the Americans who are paying and being made to consume the Fed slop of the Charlie Kirk narrative. So anyway, we're gonna keep filing until we get to the bottom of things, but I can promise you we will not be moving on.

00:34:58

How's that, Blake? We will not be moving on because everyone can see what you guys are and who and what you are covering up for. You are fooling no one. What we can say is that Blake does reflect the general mood of Turning Point USA, right? Grieving widow, no questions. Tears, no questions. No investigation. Everyone should just look at her as a victim and that's it. They're angry and frustrated that we're just not consuming the slop. I mean, even Joe Rogan— I don't know if you saw this over the weekend— he jumped into the ring similarly, asking the obvious, being a rational think thinker, a layman if you will, uh, who's just wondering why nothing makes sense. He hosted Cameron Haynes on his podcast, and here's what he had to say.

00:35:43

Knowing that, you know, I can go down a negative rabbit hole pretty easy, I try to avoid wading in that. Well, sometimes it's like you just get fed up. You're like, where the fuck are these Epstein files? Yeah, who the fuck is this? Why is this redacted? Where is it? Who the fuck killed JFK? Right? Like, come out with it.

00:36:00

What the fuck?

00:36:01

Who fucking killed Charlie Kirk for real?

00:36:03

Yeah.

00:36:04

Like, what is that? Why is that fucking story so clouded in mystery? And why did they pave over the fucking ground right after the, the shooting? What the fuck is going on there? See, now you're making me in a bad mood. That's, but that, it's easy to do. It's easy to do. It's easy to get locked up in there.

00:36:20

Easy. Easy, Joe Rogan. His best friends and the people around him are gonna be really upset to hear you speaking like that. What's wrong with you? Are you obsessed? Are you crazy? Are you a psychopath? Is Joe Rogan a knife-wielding maniac on the subway? Why doesn't he just accept the narrative? Joe Rogan, please just accept the fed slop. Like I said, no one seems to have less questions than people like Blake Neff, Andrew Colbett, and Erica. Erica really just being what she was described as in that Department of War executive office email. She's just an quote unquote emotional asset that keeps getting boosted every time she gets emotional. Her job is to cry, and then for us to be scolded that it's our fault that she's crying because how dare we try to figure out who killed her husband. And that's what she did this weekend again. It's every week. You could set a timer. This time it was on her show with James— Pastor James Caddis, uh, when somebody wrote in a question. I'm sure this wasn't just like, you know, typed up by them about spending time with their precious kids. And then she had an emotional breakdown, and then suddenly I'm being attacked because she's having an emotional breakdown in public.

00:37:29

Like I said, it's a repeat tactic to garner an emotional response to say, look, she's a damsel in distress, so no one should— you just need to feel bad for her. And I'm gonna show you that moment here. And to be clear, I don't find it entertaining or funny when Erica cries. I don't find it funny when she says, I just wanna go home and cries. I just wanna know why that was being boosted at the White House. Why, why the Department of War is saying this needs to be the number one clip by morning, within an hour of that taking place. I wanna know who recorded it. I'm just tired of this overriding strategy. So here is what Erica, uh, this is— we're gonna watch her have this breakdown, and then I'm going to explain to you why I am not feeling compelled or moved by it. Take a listen. I have been married for 10 years. My husband is a hardworking farmer who has gone a lot. A year ago, I was questioning my marriage and felt like I was losing myself in the chaotic life of work and motherhood. Since finding a church, I recently got baptized.

00:38:27

My kids attend Sunday school, and we talk about Jesus in our home daily. Instead of nagging my husband, I embrace his hard work.

00:38:38

Yeah. Man.

00:38:51

God. Sorry.

00:38:58

You want to finish reading it, sweetheart?

00:39:00

Let me finish reading it. I love him like a wife should when he comes home. Instead of losing myself to motherhood, I've completely embraced every second of it, never wanting my precious babies to grow up. It seems like the more I pour myself into my daily readings church and family, the devil shows his face more than I have ever witnessed. Why does it seem like the closer you get to God, the harder the devil works on you?

00:39:27

Yeah.

00:39:29

Man.

00:39:31

Look, for those of you that can't see, and I have the blessing and the benefit of knowing Erica and Charlie so well that I know exactly why Erica's in tears.

00:39:41

You know, um, man. Like I said, this is a weekly installment, okay? It's a weekly installment where we have a pastor that is telling us, and we're being told it's demonic, and oh my God, the devil wants to— right, right in the moment where I'm just trying to be with my kids, the devil— you're not just trying to be with your kids, so it was an unrelatable question. You should have said next question. Secondly, after my memory of what happened in Maine, which to be clear, I was not on vacation in Maine. I just went up for one day 'cause I saw people saying, "Oh, you had a whole vacation that you freaked out." I went up for one day and I had given birth a few weeks earlier, 8 weeks earlier, May 2nd. And after Charlie's assassination, I feel like I went through some sort of a brain trauma. Like it just, I was not, it took a while for me to come up for air to feel I could think again. And remembering this, I, after we finished the show on Friday and we went upstairs, 'cause we had a late night here, as you guys know.

00:40:44

And I said to my husband, oh my, do you remember this? When we went up to Tucker's house and afterward he told us that he had dinner with Charlie and Erica. And before I even said anything in front of my entire team, my husband goes, yeah. And he told us that Erica was like very hardcore against Israel. Of course he did not forget this at all. I just went, oh my God. Yeah. Yeah, like, I totally blacked out on that trip. I totally forgot the trip happened, that day trip. I totally forgot that Erica said this. And here is what has deeply troubled me about it. Here is why it feels like such a big deal. Because in the manner in which Tucker expressed it, okay, everyone was friends. A, there's no incentive that can be assigned to that conversation. It was inventing the frustration of what happened to SASS and being a friend to Charlie and Erica and the amount of pressure that Charlie was under because of his speech at SASS. And it was us discussing the shift— shifting viewpoints of friendship, okay? No one had an issue, a question mark, or anything about Erica.

00:41:41

Charles Tucker loved Erica. He was like, she's hardcore. He also said she hated the, the pastors that were around him, right? What that means is that Erica, as the wife and the confidant of Charlie Kirk, was pushing him to be more anti-Israel. This is why it troubles me. Okay, I want you to understand this. She was pushing her husband to be more anti-Israel, the very thing that the majority of the world believes killed him. Was she speaking on the other side, from both sides of her mouth? She then goes with him after she has this dinner with Tucker. She goes with him to the Hamptons and sits across, uh, from Bill Ackman at dinner when Bibi Netanyahu is called. Yeah. She's playing both sides and pushing her husband to be anti-Israel, the thing that the majority of rational people believe killed him. Okay? The majority of us believed that him turning against Israel killed him. And then after he dies, rather than asking any questions about Israel or telling us the truth about his shifting viewpoints or telling us truth about her shifting viewpoints, she does a complete 180. 180. And says people that ask questions about Israel, that's brain rot.

00:42:58

I have no— I accept the Tyler Robinson narrative. I'm partnering further, taking over his company and partnering further with pro-Israel narratives and pro-Israel pastors who I told Tucker Carlson that I hated the pastors that were around him. Erica was anti-Israel in July before she went to a pro-Israel summit at Bill Ackman's house. None of this is clocking. That's what bothers me. And if she intentionally pushed him to be more anti-Israel and— Yeah, no, babe, you got this. No, push back harder on that donor. No, no, you tell this guy this. Then what? They said, no, we can't control him. We can't bring him back. We have to take Charlie Kirk out. Think about that. Think about what I'm saying to you. It is so dark and it is so twisted, but I am telling you what I am saying is the truth. That is what Tucker said to us after we got off air. He had dinner with Charlie and Erika, and Erika was more anti-Israel than Charlie. So what the hell changed, Erika? Why couldn't you find it within you to tell the truth about Charlie's shifting viewpoints? I'm grateful. I honestly am grateful that I forgot this for a bit.

00:44:14

I never questioned God's timing. I'm grateful that I forgot the trip, that I knew something was bothering me about Erica's allegiance to Israel, and it was because she wasn't to Charlie. She lied to her husband about her viewpoints. That's why. And why did she do that? So she could go, oh, you couldn't control him, but you can control me. I support Israel. I'll be the CEO. Sorry he went that way. It's very sad. I can be your queen. We'll be right back after a break. All right, you guys, the best moments in life are not the big milestones. They are the everyday memories that we make with the people that we love. Family dinners around the table, bedtime stories before sleep, weekend adventures, and those quiet moments together that mean everything. When you know your family is protected, it's easier to focus on those moments today instead of worrying about what could happen tomorrow. And that's where life insurance comes in. It's not just about planning for the future, it's about creating peace of mind right now. Knowing that if the unexpected happens, the people that you care about most will have financial support and security in place.

Also wanna remind you guys about American Financing because in today's uncertain economy, American Financing is helping families find a way out of the high-interest trap We are heading into summer, but the economic clouds are not clearing for most middle-class families. Between persistent inflation and the cost of daily life, you are likely feeling the pressure. You've worked hard for your home and probably have more equity than you realize, yet the summer surge is forcing many to rely on credit cards.

00:46:18

It is an exhausting cycle, but American Financing understands that. 2026 requires a real strategy, and that's why they have salary-based mortgage consultants, because with mortgage rates in the 5s, their customers are saving an average of $800 a month. Mm-hmm. By wiping out high-interest debt. That's money that stays in your pocket to fight back against rising costs. There's no upfront fees, no pressure. And if you start today, you could delay 2 mortgage payments. So call American Financing today at 800-795-1210. Again, that's 800-795-1210, or visit americanfinancing.net/ellens. That's americanfinancing.net/ellens. All right, you guys, top comments from last episode 29. Blockhead writes, just looking at Kash Patel, He constantly looks like he is in a state of terror. Oh, you're quoting me there. And yeah, I think it's totally reasonable and rational to suggest that something terrified Kash Patel. I mean, look at those FBIs, man. Really is something. The Think Before You Type writes, the billionaires pay the millionaires to convince the people making $50,000 a year that the issue is people that are making $20,000 a year and immigrants. Yeah, I'm gonna have to agree that they keep us all focused on yelling at each other and screaming at each other, and they never have to answer any questions.

00:47:30

And if we do ask them to answer a simple question, really, like, Cas Patel could very well not be on that flight at all. That's just— it's just like I said, elimination journalism, or just like going through stuff, checking, uh, checking things off. Why is that sending Blake Neff into another hissy fit and spiral? Like, what is wrong with Blake Neff? Why, why is the whole concept of asking questions just so upsetting for him? Anyway, um, we have some comments for today's episode. First up is Haley. Haley writes, if Charlie Kirk and Andrew Colbett both witnessed Donald Trump saying the thing about Miriam Adelson that got him shot, would it mean that Andrew Colbett is a mole? Thank you for being our voice. I don't know. What I will say is I don't trust Andrew Colbett, um, as far as I can see him, and I haven't seen him in a really long time. I don't trust him as far as I could throw him. I don't— I'm not even sure I could pick him up. So there's that. Um, Ali Files writes, Erica has her video Bible 365 and she has a CK on her hat.

00:48:27

CK is trademarked by Calvin Klein. I looked it up. I, uh, I was just wondering your thoughts, Crisis King. Erica has a ton of trademarks for Charlie Kirk and CK and stuff. In fact, I think she did that in the immediate aftermath of his death, which is also weird in my opinion. But I do know she was at the office every day after his death. Like, she got back and she was in the office every day, and her kids were being watched by Rob McCoy's wife, and she just got right back to work. She's built different, and we just have to respect that. Auntie Leash writes, Candace, you dropped so many bombs last week, my mind is blown. Yet my biggest takeaway was concern for chihuahuas everywhere. No matter how annoying people, please don't punch chihuahuas. I don't know about that. Eventually you gotta, you gotta punch a chihuahua for 50 yards. We don't want the— The chihuahuas can be fine, they have a long life, but if it just keeps biting at your ankles like an Alex Clark, if you— your, your chihuahua happens to be named Alex Clark and their whole brand is talking about masculinity, and then, you know, they are suddenly marrying a fairy princess, you get the right to call it out.

00:49:25

Like, she just lies constantly. She attacks people. She attacks other people's fiancés. She attacks her own fans. That's like a big component is like her blocking all of her fans who ask like even the most minuscule questions. She loses it. So she deserves what she gets. You know, and she got what she got last week. Zero regrets. We don't know, no, but we know is asking again whether or not I have checked out the Leah Files regarding the endowment. The answer is still no. I, you know, we've been pretty busy here doing our own investigations. I'm— I know that Turning Point has an endowment and that, um, there are people that are prodding that narrative. I just am not. And there's a million different ways you could run with Turning Point USA because it just grew so remarkably corrupt in such a short space of time, and they're just behaving, um, like they have everything to hide. Not something, but everything to hide. Nothing they are saying makes any sense anymore. Susie Hill writes, your hair is super cute today, we love you, Candace. Christ is King. Thank you very much. Headed Westward writes, lawyer here, common in the legal community is to say FOIA.

00:50:21

I know, but it sounds like a FOIA, like I'm, like I'm giving FOIA a Brooklyn accent, so I don't like saying FOIA. Like, it's in the FOIA, you left your, you left your bag in the FOIA. That's how I feel. So I'm gonna go ahead and just say FOIA'd if that's cool, because I'm not in the legal community. This person then continues, they are 100% responsible for— I am 100% responsible for you leaving the Trump cult, um, as a happy single childless female. I was not a fan of you or Charlie Kirk, but I can recognize and appreciate genius. Thank you so much. Genius except when it comes to legal jargon. FOIA. Did you do the FOIA? Is it in the FOIA? See, it just— I can't. You know why? Because I'm born in New York and my whole family's from New York, and like that accent is giving— it's given BK for me. Lovable Latte writes, Candace Owens for dictator 2028. It's the only way you Guys, if you really wanna see change, you're gonna have to vote me for dictator. You know, I'll be reasonable about how long I'll be the dictator. I'll probably wanna maybe go and enjoy my grandkids at a different time.

00:51:16

So I'll give you a timeframe. Like, I will be a dictator that retires and I'm willing to hand over the power to another reasonable dictator. But I'm not dealing with Lindsey Graham in Congress. I'm not dealing with AIPAC. That's just not gonna happen. So I do hope you'll consider me. I think you guys are warming up to the idea. I'm happy to see that. Ali writes, Braveheart style, You can't break me speeches and tears don't hit the same when you remember that Erica Kirk totally betrayed Charlie's legacy to Zionists in a shameless and disgusting way and told severe and suspicious lies. Yeah, explain it, Erica. What was up with that dinner? Am I lying? Like I said, I had no permission from Tucker to reveal that, um, because it just came on so naturally and I was just so blown away by the fact that I had forgotten it, that little dinner. But it was— it is 100% true. And my husband was present, confirmed it here in front of the team. He never forgot it apparently. I guess, whatever, my husband, I feel like has a better memory than me. I don't know. I also was postpartum and I feel like I also have like spotty memory when I'm postpartum anyways.

00:52:18

So takes a while for me to feel like myself. And then when you add on an assassination of someone that you cared about and then the people all around them who you suddenly realize are betraying him and lying about everything, It'll do something to your brain for a little bit, but we're back and we are on it. Anyway, you guys, if you want to support our website, if you want to support us and the podcast every day— we are a very small team— the easiest way to do that is to go to CandaceOwens.com and get some merch. Get decked out in Candace Owens merch. The Stop Anti-Candacism cup— it's working. They decrease their attacks every time you buy a cup. And someone should buy a cup and gift it to Ben Shapiro. He's the most anti-Candacist of them all. Yeah. Everyone knows I can't even go away. He's making up rumors about me. He's telling people that, that I'm like hanging out with Vladdy Daddy over there in Russia, and I'm not doing anything. I'm on vacation with my family. I'm just on a panel talking about families. I love family and I want to have a lot of kids, and I think Russia's great.

00:53:12

And I liked, I liked the, the Starbucks, Zarbucks. I like it. They just did their own thing. I think Russia's cool, I'm not gonna lie. But he's got to stop his anti-Kennecism. So get one for yourself, get one for Ben Shapiro. Um, ship it to him if you can. That'd be nice. Yeah, I think you should do that. Anyway, you guys, uh, we have book club up next. We'll take a little break here and then we'll be right back on for book club if you signed up for that. We are doing my book, and actually we're getting into Russia, actually, in this next couple of chapters and talking about the history of feminism. So if you've not signed up, you can do that on the website. Otherwise, we will see you over there if you are signed up, or we will see you Tomorrow. Tomorrow.
