Jimmy speaks with Candace Owens about the aftermath of Charlie Kirk's death, questioning the speed and certainty of official narratives and criticizing figures who immediately declared who was or wasn't responsible. Owens describes being shocked by what she sees as coordinated media behavior, donor pressure, and a rapid effort to control Kirk's legacy, in particular by right-wing figures like Tim Pool and Glenn Beck, framing this effort as part of a broader fight against Zionist influence in conservative media.
The two compare these tactics to past moments like during COVID, the BLM protests, and the JFK assassination, arguing that shaming people for asking questions is a familiar psychological strategy used to shut down inquiry. The discussion ends with Owens asserting that despite money, institutional power, and mainstream media alignment against her, public trust is shifting toward independent voices because truth resonates more than enforced consensus.
Plus segments on Twitter AI program Grok dismantling the FBI narrative about Charlie Kirk's shooting, Erika Kirk accidentally contradicting her colleagues at TPUSA about Mikey McCoy's reaction to Charlie's shooting, and an FBI official's cringeworthy response to questions about Antifa's designation as a terrorist organization.
Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from JD Vance!
