Candace Owens insisted Charlie Kirk was no friend of Ben Shapiro or Meghan McCain.
Candace followed up with another upload slamming conservative commentator Ben Shapiro and defending fellow podcaster Megyn Kelly amid a messy MAGA meltdown.
"Pretending Charlie was friends with Ben Shapiro and filthy neocons like you simply won’t be happening on my watch," she declared. "I’ve given them six months to stop lying about who his friends are— but Ben Shapiro attacking Megyn Kelly and pretending he is now Charlie’s knight is where I draw the line."

Charlie Kirk 'Talked About How Amazing' Candace Owens Was Before His Death
Candace Owens has fueled several conspiracy theories surrounding Charlie Kirk's death.
While Meghan's initial post appeared fitting for Candace — who has shared several alleged text messages of her past conversations with Charlie — the columnist's tweet had seemingly been in reference to Milo Yiannopoulos recently exposing messages he claimed were from the slain Turning Point USA co-founder.
The far-right British provocateur shared the alleged chat to try supporting his claim that Ben was "secretly" organizing "hit jobs on TPUSA a decade ago."
"Charlie Kirk knew," he claimed via social media on Saturday. "We met and talked about it and discussed strategy. Kirk and I weren't friends for long, but while we were, all he talked about was how amazing Candace was and how f---ing evil Ben is."
