Within the months since Charlie Kirk was shot and killed throughout a talking engagement at a Utah college, quite a few conspiracy theories about his homicide have unfold like wildfire throughout social media.
Many, if not most, of these theories have originated from a good friend and colleague of Charlie’s who has determined to focus all of her vitality on tormenting his widow.
We’re speaking, in fact, about Candace Owens, who has spent the previous a number of months alleging that Kirk was assassinated as a part of a world conspiracy orchestrated by the Israeli authorities.

Kirk and Owens attain uneasy truce over conspiracy theories
Final week, Kirk was scheduled to host a livestream by which she would straight and publicly handle the claims made by Owens.
Nonetheless, Kirk abruptly postponed the occasion, asserting as a substitute that she had organized to fulfill with Owens privately to debate the matter.
“Candace Owens and I are meeting for a private, in-person discussion on Monday, December 15,” Kirk tweeted (through Axios), including:

“I am very much looking forward to this discussion.”
The announcement got here after weeks of escalating rigidity between Kirk and Owens.
When requested throughout an interview with Bari Weiss how she would reply to the influencers spreading rumors about Charlie Kirk’s homicide, Erika angrily replied:
“Stop. That’s it. That’s all I have to say. Stop.”
So what went down throughout the closed-door sit-down? Nicely, neither get together is giving a lot away.

But it surely appears like the entire thing went surprisingly effectively.
“More to come from both of us. Looking forward to AmFest this week. Time to get back to work.”
“Erika and I had an extremely productive 4 1/2 hour meeting that I think we both feel should have taken place a lot earlier than it did,” Owens echoed, including:
“We agreed much more than I had anticipated. Of course, we also disagreed on various points and people as well. Most importantly, we were able to share intel and clarify intent.”
It may appear stunning that two folks can bury the hatchet so simply after a number of months of untamed allegations within the wake of a brutal homicide.
However let this be a reminder that our media panorama is suffering from shameless grifters, and far of what we see on our screens is about as actual as skilled wrestling.
