And you're making hundreds and thousands
of dollars every single episode. To that
point that people are making hundreds
and thousands of dollars.
>> Point two, remember when Candace said this?
this?
>> I said early on, if Eric Kirk asks me to
be quiet, I will be quiet. She didn't
ask me to be quiet. So, and so my
message to them is to stop. To stop.
>> Let's watch her response.
Clinton Jaws. It looks like I have
picked a side where most people won't.
They're afraid to. And honestly, I don't
blame them. I want you to watch us
because I think you're going to get my
point. It's what nobody else is talking
about. Erica Kirk goes on Fox News, does
an interview, and tells Candace Owens to
do this. Will you do this for me? I'm
going to show you the clip. I want you
to listen because Candace Owens, she
responds to it and you're not going to
believe her response. She played the
clip in front of her audience and her
words unbelievable.
>> So, you want to put these people back in
the box where they've been creeping
from. I don't care what box you're in,
but just know that your words are very
powerful and we are human. My team are
not machines and they're not robots.
They are human. We have more death
threats on our team and our side than I
have ever seen. I have kidnapping
threats. I have, you name it, we have
it. And my poor team is exhausted. And
every time they bring this back up, what
are we supposed to do? Relive that
trauma all over again.
>> They pick on you because of your
accessories. I mean, I've seen some of it.
it.
>> Oh, yeah. No, I at this point, it's what
the conspiracy collection. Get it before
Christmas. Like seriously, it it you
will if you want to find and pick me
apart, go right ahead. I do not care. I don't.
don't.
>> This was happening before Charlie was
murdered. Both of us have been through
the ringer of people will call you
whatever they want to call you. They
will. But I have seen it firsthand
impact the people that I love and I'm
done. I'm done. And if if people think
that I was just going to wilt away, I'm
not going to sit in a corner and cry and
be in fetal position. This is a duty to
my husband and it's an absolute honor
and I will never back down. And so my
message to them is to stop to stop. Call
me what you want. Go down that rabbit
hole, whatever.
But when you go after my family, my
Turning Point USA family, my Charlie
Kirk show family, when you go after the
people that I love, and you're making
hundreds and thousands of dollars every
single episode
going after the people that I love
because somehow they're in on this. No.
No.
>> What did she do to deserve that? She
asks Candace to stop. You're going to
hear Candice her response and her
response to making a h 100red grand per
episode at least for BS. Before we play
her response, you guys need to
understand Candace avoids anything that
would damage her credibility
on purpose. She avoids the truth.
Remember when she hit number one? You
guys want to watch that? What she
avoided to say on purpose? Let's watch.
But I want you guys to understand when
Charlie died, she made 26 videos about
Charlie Kirk. On YouTube only, she got
88 million views. 26 videos that she
made before his death, she got 40
million views. One video was over 3
million. Lucky for that, because really,
it's probably 37 million views on
YouTube. She went from 37 to 88 million.
What's that? Well, after his death,
that's 117%
increase. I watched this live. Let's
watch it together.
>> It's because today is obviously a day of
celebration. Yes, in case you missed it,
we officially have become the number one
podcast in the world. Not in America,
okay? Not in Europe. I am talking about
in the world. And the haters stay mad.
Welcome to the number one podcast in the
world. It's here. You are here. We are
all number one in the world. It's been
and there are so many people to thank.
It is true. We must thank Breijit
>> honestly. [laughter] Okay. I watched
this live and I waited for her to say
it. Watch what she avoids.
>> And uh Emanuel Mcronone for that ill
advised lawsuit. Obviously, I feel like
that ripped a hole in reality. I'd like
to thank Kanye West. Formerly Kanye
West. He is now Yay. Of course. As
always, I thank Ben Shapiro. I thank
Jeremy Boring. I thank the direction of
travel and they realizing it before I did.
did.
>> That's why she's number one.
>> Thank you for firing me. Um, Andrew
Claven, Christ is King, thank you so
much. You are a hero in my book. Um,
Tucker Carlson, I don't know. I feel
like I should thank you because a lot
happened because people thought that we
were plotting behind the scenes and we
never were. I want to thank Australia.
Thanking this incredible team. Very
small. It has stayed small. There's just
four of us mostly. Uh, thankful to my
husband for figuring out how to operate
an entire podcast business. Uh, I don't
know how he does it. I don't know how he
deals with things. He doesn't have time
to even watch the show and he's just
constantly putting out fires.
>> Could not have done this without all of
you guys for letting me know that it's
okay to just be honest. And it was
definitely a trying year realizing that
especially now and one of the things
that we are speaking truth about right
now and which my haters are like it's
cuz you're talking about Charlie Kirk
>> isn't it
not according to Candy. Oh my [laughter]
god. Avoids thanking Erica and Charlie.
117% increase. Of course you're number
one. You got 88 million views off of
them. Listen to what she says here. You
know, you guys change this every month.
First, it was, "Oh, it's because of the
Breit Mcronone thing. Oh, it's because
of the Camala Chronicles. Oh, it's
because of the Blake Lively lawsuit."
The common denominator here is me,
looking for truth. And I think people
are catching on to the fact
>> and she said so she has said so much
truth, hasn't she? Could you imagine if
we find out that Bridget actually has a
badge and Robinson actually shot
Charlie? What would we be left with? 130
million views of horseshit. You become
number one by avoiding facts. That's how
you That's how you make more money. Sean
Ryan had Brian Harpole on his podcast.
It was a great interview. It was amazing
interview. Head of security, basically
the first guy on Charlie Kirk after he
was shot. Candace said that a member of
Charlie's team stole SD cards. Brian
said this. They said that he was hiding
footage or whatever that he turned over
all that footage to the FBI.
>> Obviously, it's exhibit.
>> So, um,
>> and that footage is in the hands of the FBI.
FBI. >> Correct.
>> Correct.
>> Fact. A 30 odd six couldn't have killed
Charlie. Right, Candace?
>> I'm going to need you to make a video
saying that you believe that Charlie was
shot by a 30 odd six in the neck.
And that somehow through the miracle of
God, uh, Charlie's neck stopped a 300 6.
Not only stopped a 30 six, but was
pretty much in good shape. Not even
destroyed. His neck was not even
straight on. What does Brian say?
>> So the bullet came in and hit the
vertebrae. And it so it came in and then
tore up everything in the wound cavity,
hit the vertebra, crushed it, shattered
it, turned, crushed the second one,
turned, kept going down all the way. I
think they said C6.
>> Holy. And so then it got to here, and
you're exactly right. And then hit, I
think, six, [snorts] and then fragged.
>> Nobody performed first aid on Charlie.
>> Charlie's instructions are actually
insane. Number one, leave me with no
help or first aid. He's not administered
any first aid. I hold the close-up
videos of that. Very strange to me
because that's what they're supposed to
be. First,
>> no gauze taken out, nothing. Not even
securing the wound.
>> When you look at the clock, I was on him
within 5 seconds and had my hands in him.
him.
>> Let me tell you something. That's first
first aid. [clears throat]
>> It gets saturated. You don't take it
out. You just keep packing on top of it.
putting I end up putting uh about 36
feet of uh uh dressing in him.
>> Uh there's the four uh 4x4s and then two
hemistatic 4x4s. Sheesh.
>> There's no blood.
>> The thing that really stood out to me,
and I just kept asking him to replay it
over and over and over again, is that
there's no blood.
>> Covered in Charlie's blood. Yeah. Had it
all over my face. Rick and I had it all
over our arms. Yeah.
>> How can that be?
>> Uh, our from about here down was just covered.
covered.
>> I waited for her response to that
factual interview because of course
she's going to, right? She's a digger.
>> I I don't agree with some of the stuff
that the rabbit hole she goes down, but
I don't even know.
>> But I like the fact that she likes to
dig in the garden. You know,
>> the biggest interview on the internet
something it's it's about her it's about
her best friend.
Of course, you're going to watch it, but
she takes her time. And BCH writes,
"Have you seen the new Shawn Ryan with
the security detail that took care of
Charlie? Do you feel they are trying to
push their narrative? We love you,
Candace, and we're praying for you
always. I have not seen it yet, but I
intend to watch it and I will give
feedback on it um this week without
question. It's it's on my to-do list."
>> You know, when she gets to it, 5 days
later after the interview, and she says this,
this,
>> "Well, Turning Point USA is finally
dropping some receipts." Kind of. Not
really, but it's more than we've
received thus far, which is nothing. So,
it's something and it's not at all what
we were asking for, but again, I want to
be optimistic, so at least it's
something. First up, many of you guys
pinged me regarding uh Brian Harpole, an
interview that he did with Shawn Ryan.
Now, Brian Harpole is one of Charlie
Kirk's long-term security members uh
team members. And on the day of the
assassination, you'll recognize he's the
guy that had the black strap. I don't
know if we have a photo. He had a bag
across him and um he was standing to the
front right of Charlie kind of looking
out at the audience. You're going to see
him in a second. He is the one who then
runs over to Charlie and again you
recognize him because he kind of has
that small supposed to be a medical bag
over him. [snorts] Now, I have not
watched this interview in its entirety,
but from what I have seen thus far, it
is just not that convincing.
For one, Brian offers up that the lack
of security on the rooftop can actually
be attributed to the UVU police chief
Jeff Long. Here is what he had to say.
>> On Monday before this correspondence
went to Chief Long. Hello, Chief Long.
We received this message today from the
student group. Um there is a student
roof access pretty close to where CK
will be set up at the Utah Valley. Uh
the Sorenson uh center has a couple of
staircases that go up to walkways on the
roofs. You want uh access to the roof. I
What else am I to do?
>> I have an answer for what I could have
done. You could have followed up because
it's your job and Charlie paid you
millions of dollars not to pass the buck.
buck.
>> The digger. The truth seeker. She hasn't
gotten to it. I haven't watched all of
it yet. I have not watched this
interview in its entirety. [laughter]
>> Haven't gotten to it. Of course she did.
But you know why she told you that? So
she doesn't have to speak to it because
speaking to the truth, she loses money.
Spends five minutes, talks about a BS
clip that he said during the interview.
5 minutes out of a 55minute video.
That's the part she covers. Nothing
about the gauze, nothing about first
aid, nothing about the bullet.
Interesting stuff. She avoids it on
purpose. If you keep up the conspiracy,
you make more money. Why do you think
she turned down Turning Point? Hey,
remember the anytime, anywhere, and she
said, "No, I'm not going to do that.
Instead, I'm going to stream it and I'm
going to react to it." Why? Because she
could make more money like Erica said,
over a hundred grand per episode. More
than that. I mean, we're just talking
about YouTube. We're not talking about
Twitter. We're not talking about Tik
Tok, Instagram, all those other ones.
Rumble, 88 million views on YouTube only.
only.
I can't even personally wrap my mind
around how much money you can make. I
once Okay, I'll tell you.
I did a video that was 6.5 million
views. It was only an 18minute video. 66 grand,
grand,
88 million views, and all her videos are
nearly an hour long. More ads, more
sponsorship reads. That's how you make
money. Avoid fact. I can't speak to it.
I haven't watched it yet. It was five
Now, today, you want to know what she
avoided? This should make you sick to
your stomach. Wow. But first, you ever
walk out of a meeting and go, "Thank God
that's over." [laughter]
Did we even decide anything? I can't
remember. I was so bored. That's why I
started using Plaude's Notetaker, the
sponsor of today's video. And now
there's even a better upgrade, the
Plaude Note Pro. It's the same size as
my credit card, and pocket thin. It has
a smart display that shows audio
capture, battery, and file transfers in
real time. It even knows if I'm on a
call or in a meeting with four built-in
mics and smart noise reduction. It
captures everything clearly, even in a
busy room within a 5 m range. But it's
not just audio. I can add text, images,
and even highlight key moments with a
single press. Plaude instantly
transcribes and analyzes everything. And
I can pick up from over 3,000 templates
or generate exactly what I need from
clean meeting notes to visual mind maps.
And if I forget something, I just ask
Plaude to find it instantly. And with
enterprisegrade security, my data stays
protected. If meetings run your week,
this thing pays for itself fast. Use my

>> Later on in this same interview, she
launches into a strong defense of
Turning Point USA employees who have
just as a matter of fact told many lies,
many inconsistencies. These are
verifiable. So they are currently lying
to the public or they have lied to the
public. But she is going to deliver
quite an impassioned defense regarding
these particular individuals and the
organization as a whole. And I want you
to hear her passion. Take a listen.
>> What are they taking from you right now?
>> Nothing. But I will tell you what they
are doing. It reminds me so much of
chapter 6 in the book of Nehemiah. M
>> he [clears throat] is building a wall
and the town's people are at the base of
that hill saying Nehemiah calling him
all these names saying all these things
come on down. Every single time he had
the same message four times in a row I
cannot come down. I am busy building.
That is how I feel. I do not have time
to address the noise. My silence does
not mean that I am complacent. Mhm.
>> My silence does not mean that somehow
Turning Point USA and all of the
handpicked staff that loved my husband
and my husband loved them is somehow in
on it.
>> We are busy building. And you know what
I thought? I thought these people are
human. We are all grieving in our own
way and they are trying to find the
answer to something that happened that
was so evil. They are trying so hard.
And I get that. We're doing the same.
Anytime we hear a lead or anytime we
hear anything, we send it to the
authorities. Please dig into this. No
rock will be unturned. I want justice
for my husband, for myself, for my
family more than anyone else out there.
So for me, you want to keep telling me
to come down while we're we're building.
I don't have time for that.
>> But here's my breaking point on that.
Come after me. Call me names. I don't
care. Call me what you want. go down
that rabbit hole, whatever.
But when you go after my family, my
Turning Point USA family, my Charlie
Kirk show family, when you go after the
people that I love and you're making
hundreds and thousands of dollars every
single episode,
>> going after the people that I love
because somehow they're in on this. >> No,
>> No,
>> stops it there. I'm sorry, but that that
whole thing right there is frustrating.
And I'm going to explain to you why. I
just I just do not accept any of that.
First and foremost, the idea that she
does not have time.
>> Okay, she definitely has time. Okay,
she's done Hannity, she's done the five,
she's done Fox and Friends, she's done
outnumbered, she's done Megan Kelly
Live, she sat down.
>> Trust me, she goes on about nothing here.
here.
>> Oh, it gets better with the New York
Times. She made time obscure, not
flight. So Erica Kirk has time.
Okay. [laughter] Okay. She's got she's
got time. Okay.
>> To that point that people are making
hundreds and thousands of dollars.
>> Point two.
>> I just don't get how there's not someone
on this uh very large PR team as we're
seeing these PR campaigns go out that
doesn't go, hey, maybe we should strike
that. You know, like you know, they made
40 40 million like two nights ago at
Mara Lago. Maybe it doesn't maybe that
feels kind of a little bit like let them
eat cakeish. Oh, and uh we've made more
than separately from our logo, Turning
Point USA, since Charlie was killed,
just so you guys know, this is a fact,
has made more than $100 million.
>> Not enough.
>> That is separate off
>> from the $40 million they made at Marago
the other night. So, since Charlie has
died, that organization has taken in $140
$140 million.
million.
>> Should be a billion. But gosh darn you
people that are making hundreds of
dollars every day on YouTube >> for
>> for
>> talking about Charlie Kirk's
assassination and the BS narrative that
is being fed and the very obvious
psychological operation that is being
employed to make you accept the BS that
they are trying to sell to us.
[laughter] Gosh darn you.
>> Thousand Did you make $1,000 today
speaking about Charlie Kirk? Well, you
should be ashamed of yourself, says
Turning Point USA. not when you tell the truth.
truth.
>> Who in large part made that money
because of those very people who gave to
the organization immediately following
Charlie Kirk's assassination.
>> She's not done talking. But what did she
avoid, guys? Erica Kirk asking her to
stop. Purposely avoids that. Purposely
doesn't say anything about that. And
what is Eric? What's Erica Kirk really saying?
saying?
Stop making money off BS. And really,
it's a form of theft. Avoid the truth.
spew lies. Now they have death threats
against them because of the things that
are being said about her team, taking
money out of their pocket and putting it
I once had a buddy who was a YouTube creator.
creator.
We drank together, we camped together.
One day he created another channel
behind my back. Secretly
took all my titles and my thumbnails verbatim.
verbatim.
I confronted him. We're no longer
friends. Of course, he doubled down on it.
it.
He stole from me.
This is a form of stealing. And what
else did she avoid? the death threats
for her audience. Remember when Candace
said this?
>> I said early on, if Eric Herk asks me to
be quiet, I will be quiet. She didn't
ask me to be quiet. So,
>> and so my message to them is to stop. To stop.
stop.
>> Let's watch her response.
>> This person writes, "I just came from
the CVS. By the way, whoever wrote this
email, I love you. I just love all the
mommy sloops that are this quickly that
are this quick." Yeah. Yeah, I just came
from the CBS Times Erica Kirk town hall
and this is what she said about the
conspiracies and Candace one. Erica said
she was pregnant when the Egyptian
planes were flying and following her so
she wasn't on them. She said she has
photo proof. Huh?
Huh?
I'm sorry.
Did I ever accuse Erica of being on
Egyptian planes? When I found the
Egyptian planes, I was concerned that
they were following Charlie because I
thought, "Wow, has there been a foreign
government that has been tracking his
events like maybe I don't know like
running through the operation early and
then we broughten it broadened it when
someone clued us into the fact that
actually these planes have been
following Erica." You just heard Tarson
confirm that.
>> You didn't say that. >> Um
>> Um
>> I thought she'd be concerned. Instead,
she's she's going to tell us on Saturday.
Saturday.
>> She's not talking.
>> That she wasn't on the planes. I never
said you were on the planes. Why would I
think you were on the Egyptian planes? I
don't like Well, that would be I don't
think that you took off and went to
Wilmington, Delaware. I know you didn't
go to Wilmington, Delaware. I got an email
email
that answer
>> to be lacking. >> Lacking.
>> Lacking.
>> Okay, that is weird to me. It's a weird
answer to give.
>> Making fun of her now.
>> By the way, you can fly when you're pregnant.
pregnant. >> Yeah,
>> Yeah,
>> even if you were on the plate, that's a
possibility when you're pregnant. So, I
don't understand that part at all. Um,
two, when Barry asked her about the
conspiracies and what she
[clears throat] had to say to those
saying them, Erica said, "Stop."
No. Three,
>> no, not stopping, guys. Why isn't she
stopping? Because the money's too good.
Oh, man. And I know these videos aren't
popular because I've tried to do them
before. And you go against Candace, the
world don't like you.
But I have to say it. And man, I hope
she pulls herself because I was a fan
and I hope she I don't know how she gets
out of this. I just see the downfall.
You can see what right through it. Can
you not see right through this?
That is pretty sick to me. It is to be
so obvious to avoid facts.
To avoid them on purpose in order to
make more dollars. You know what? Yeah.
Okay. Yeah. A very small part of the
reason why I do this podcast.
Small reason for the money.
