"When did Charlie turn into such a diva": Candace Owens questions Charlie Kirk's custom Carhartt shirt worn on assassination day

Candace Owens has raised fresh questions about the custom Carhartt shirt Charlie Kirk wore on September 10, the day he was assassinated. In a recent discussion, Owens claimed the garment differed from the Freedom shirts sold to supporters after his death. She also questioned why Kirk wore a customised shirt from a brand she said Turning Point USA had not used as a vendor. Comments from Kirk's former assistant, Nate Walker, have added another detail to the discussion, as Owens seeks information about who ordered the garment and why it was chosen.Candace Owens questions the origin of Charlie Kirk's Carhartt shirtOwens began by addressing messages from people who had purchased Freedom shirts following Kirk's death. She argued that the merchandise sold to supporters was not identical to the shirt Kirk wore that day.“Well foremost, you should know that those shirts were not actually sold by the charity. They made an insane profit by running those through the for-profit arm. But beyond that they show they sold you a cheaper version of what Charlie was wearing.”She said Kirk wore a customised Carhartt shirt instead, suggesting its fabric could have contained either 50% or 95% polyester. However, the precise material composition of the garment has not been independently confirmed in the information presented.Owens also questioned why this particular brand appeared on Kirk when, according to her recollection, he usually wore event shirts during campus appearances.“I can at every turning point college stop that I ever did with Charlie, we just wore typically the same t-shirts that the student chapter was wearing and they were provided for us when we arrived.”She added that she did not recall wearing polyester shirts during those events and said former and current Turning Point employees had told her Carhartt was not among the organisation's vendors.Nate Walker recalls Charlie Kirk's decision to wear the Freedom shirtOwens also discussed an interview in which Kirk's former executive assistant, Nate Walker, explained how he handled the activist's daily needs, including choosing clothes for appearances.Walker described the task as difficult at times because he had to predict what Kirk would want to wear. Recalling the journey to the campus event, he said he asked Kirk which shirt he preferred.“I go Charlie what what shirt do you want to wear? He goes I want to wear the freedom shirt that that's not controversial.”When the interviewer asked what other options were available, Walker replied, “I can't I can't remember.”That response prompted Owens to question the explanation. She argued that Kirk's public appearances often involved controversial political messages and found the account of choosing a supposedly non-controversial shirt surprising.“That's literally why he went on to college campuses and found and found a turning point. He was a to bring the controversy and the discussion there.”Owens has asked viewers who know how the custom Carhartt shirt was ordered or produced to contact her. So far, the discussion has not established who commissioned the garment or why it was selected. Those questions remain unresolved, and the claims do not by themselves establish any wrongdoing.You use AI every day. Now get your AI Quotient. Take the AIQ test.
