"I am devastated for Charlie": Candace Owens escalates Charlie Kirk assassination claims against TPUSA

Candace Owens has renewed her public allegations against Turning Point USA (TPUSA) over the circumstances surrounding Charlie Kirk’s assassination, putting fresh attention on the organisation’s role in planning the event at Utah Valley University. Owens has pointed to what she describes as inconsistencies in accounts of how the event was arranged and responses to an independent review. However, the claims remain unverified, TPUSA has not publicly responded to the latest allegations, and authorities have arrested Tyler Robinson in connection with Kirk’s killing.Candace Owens makes fresh TPUSA allegationsOwens shared several posts on X after highlighting alleged details from a review of the September 10, 2025 event. One claim questioned whether the local TPUSA chapter had actually initiated the event or whether the organisation’s headquarters had contacted the chapter and specified the location and timing.Owens accused TPUSA of misleading her and the public about the planning process. She wrote, “They gaslit me for a year when I instantly said there was something weird about how quickly this event came together. They represented to the public that the chapter requested it. No. Headquarters requested it and were being vague to the Chapter Leader about it.”She later described the alleged information as significant, writing, “This is the most damning document we have seen since. It confirms what I suspected all along. Everything about the planning was unnatural and it came straight from TPUSA Headquarters.”Owens also expressed her emotions over the dispute, saying, “I am oscillating between the emotions of anger for the lies and gaslighting I’ve been made to endure over the last year, and the relief that comes from being proven correct about what took place. Mostly, I am devastated for Charlie that the organization that he gave his everything to, so callously and unflinchingly partook in a ruthless year long campaign of deflection and obfuscating.”Charlie Kirk assassination claims remain unconfirmedAnother issue raised online involved whether TPUSA representatives responded to investigators conducting the independent review. Owens highlighted a post claiming that reviewers could not obtain a response from a TPUSA-affiliated person despite repeated attempts.She added, “CEO and Chairman Erika Kirk approves this message.”However, an opposing post on X offered a narrower interpretation, claiming that the report referred specifically to Dan Flood and Maycee Crofts, while Brian Harpole was identified as being with Integrity Solutions rather than TPUSA. The post also said the head of UVU’s TPUSA chapter had not responded.These competing claims underline the need for caution. There is currently no confirmation that TPUSA officials were involved in Kirk’s killing. Tyler Robinson has been arrested and faces trial in the case.Owens also suggested that more legal action could follow, while an X account claimed Erika Kirk’s legal team may sue Owens. There is no confirmed lawsuit at this time.You use AI every day. Now get your AI Quotient. Take the AIQ test.
