Candace Owens, once a significant figure within the black conservative movement, went on yet another antisemitic rant during a Sunday broadcast on X. During a show she titled The Truth About Zionism, Owens made comments suggesting Jewish involvement in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and peddled other conspiracy theories, warning that criticism of Israel could result in her death.
VIDEO HAS BEEN OMITTED DUE TO EXTREME VULGAR LANGUAGE
“Do you think it’s normal that basically, every person that speaks about Israel has to say a statement that ‘you know I don’t want to get killed?’” Owens asked during the broadcast, which quickly circulated across conservative media platforms. She then referenced the 1963 assassination of JFK, implying a connection to Israel: “They shot JFK in an open car, he was a sitting president, so my security doesn’t matter, if they want me they’re gonna get me.”
Owens insisted that such concerns were uniquely tied to Israel, claiming that the nation had “taken over” the United States.
“Many moons ago, before they decided to establish Israel as a country. I know you’ve read like the short version in the classroom, and it was like, ‘Oh, the Holocaust happened. And then we realized that Israel needs a thing.’ No, that’s not how it went out. That’s not how it went down at… all, okay? Catholics and Christians were going missing on Passover. Then they would find bodies across Europe, and they were able to trace them back to Jews. Blood libel. They weren’t Jews, okay. These were Frank. And so just like Leo Frank killed Mary Fagan on Passover back in 1913 or 1914… for a reason, this Frankist cult which is masquerading behind Jews still participate to this day.”
“Like, I don’t know if I’m just throwing out some ideas here, and by throwing out some ideas, I mean, I’ve read a ton of books, and I figured it out. Okay. I am just like so over the idea that our ally, and if another person says that stupid statement, I’m going to personally punch you in the face. I am. It’s going to be me. That’s a joke. Don’t take this video off of Twitter. Wink.”
Her remarks have drawn sharp condemnation from prominent figures within the right-wing media sphere. Fox News contributor Sarah Carter was particularly vocal, releasing a scathing statement: “Sadly, something seems to have gone wrong with Candace, so that she is now engaging in and spreading the most vile & vicious Jew-hating conspiracy theories, some of them dating back to the depths of ignorance from the Middle Ages!”
Carter continued: “I condemn Candace Owens, I condemn her disgraceful fall to espousing pure antisemitism, and I know there is no room in the conservative movement for an antisemite like Owens.”
The outrage extended beyond Carter, with Pro-Trump influencer and academic Gad Saad expressing disbelief over Owens’ comments. “What happened to this woman? A few years ago, I hosted her on my show, and she seemed reasonable and composed,” he said. Conservative activist and journalist Christopher Rufo added that Owens had become a victim of “algorithm-chasing,” explaining that the promotion of antisemitic content is designed to generate negative attention on uncensored platforms. “She fell into the trap and there is no way out,” Rufo lamented.
Owens, who was previously fired from conservative media outlet The Daily Wire, has increasingly embraced more extreme rhetoric over the past year. After endorsing a controversial tweet about Jews drinking Christian blood and condemning Israel following the October 7th Hamas attacks, Daily Wire founder Ben Shapiro labeled her behavior as “disgraceful.”

Tuvia Singer has some very good information about this situation with this particular figure. He makes mention of the fact that she has begun going crazy shortly after getting married, and has been on a long downwards spiral since then – and makes note that her husband belongs to a particular vein of catholocism which is virulently antisemitic, etc. etc. So there you have it folks.
Yseigel, interesting what you write about what Tuvia Singer saying, I will look into that. I’ve been saying that all along as well. I’ve listened to her before she got married and afterwards and the change is extreme. I dont remember her mentioning Jews before her marriage but now she constantly obsesses about Israel and Jews. She adopted her husband’s religion which is Catholism so it seems she became obsessed with Catholism and their age-old anti-Semitic textual passages. It also seems like her husband may be anti-Semitic and she adopted his view.

We never understood how intelligent people bought into a blood libel, it is so ridiculous how can anyone believe this nonsense.
But listening to her we see that intelligent people can get brainwashed to such an extent that they believe these ridiculous nonsenses by rationalizing their beliefs based on other criminal behaviors people commit (child abuse etc.)
Hashem should watch us!
somebody needs to slap her with a multi-billion-dollar defamation lawsuit.
Nothing anti Semitic or pro Semitic or anything coherent at all. Just a few random words.
R’ Tuvia Singer says it has a lot to do with her husband…

A wife has to follow her husband…..
its important to note that her transformation from making misinformed comments about Israel to becoming a full-fledged conspiratorial antisemite happened after a bunch of crazy jews like boteach started harassing her and sending her death threats. Because of her deep anger towards these people, she is very biased to believe these dangerous ideas. She is pretty public about this. I say this not to justify her rhetoric, which is inexcusable, but rather so we can learn to help prevent these things in the future. While there are always people who just inherently hate jews, there are many people like Owens who initially just say misinformed things about Israel, and would be open to changing their opinions if they would have respectful dialogue and civil discourse. But when they are right away smeared as “evil antisemites”, and harrassed, then it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy; and the same people trying to stop antisemitism actually cause much worse antisemitism.
