Folks, I genuinely can’t believe this is what my life has come to...after debunking Tucker’s Russian novel on X about me, I am now here admiring Candace’s unique ability to peddle silliness like they’re some secret revelations about the universe. Remember, if you’re not spotting the op, chances are you’re the mark. Anyway, here we go…
Ben Shapiro criticizes Candace Owens for her baseless conspiracy theories regarding the death of Charlie Kirk. He mocks her attempt to link him to the crime and her willingness to pay a $10,000 bounty for information about his whereabouts, which he claims has made her a target for scams.
Folks, I genuinely can't believe this is what my life has now come to.
After debunking Tucker's Russian novel on X About Me, I am now here admiring Candace
Owens' unique ability to peddle silliness like it's some secret revelation about the universe.
Remember, if you're not spotting the op, you're the mark.
Well, here we go.
I'm getting very concerned about waste and fraud and abuse in this country.
Very, very concerned.
I'm particularly concerned about Candace Owens, who it appears was scammed out of $10,000.
So for those who missed it, Candace Owens has a newfound theory.
Everyone was involved in Charlie Kirk's murder except for Charlie Kirk's actual murderer.
And lately, she's been trying to wrap me into that.
T'was I. T'was I.
Apparently, it was me.
Because again, my phenomenal godlike powers not only extend to American foreign policy,
but also to the murder of Charlie Kirk, according to Candace Owens.
Okay, so she has a theory.
The theory is I met with someone very nefarious for lunch the day that Charlie died.
She says this because I said on the podcast, talking about Charlie's death,
that I was at lunch or breakfast, it's actually late breakfast,
when I found out that Charlie had been shot.
It was late breakfast because I was on the West Coast.
And so she has put out a $10,000 bounty, I kid you not,
for someone who can tell her with whom I was breakfasting or lunching.
Well, yesterday, she revealed with whom I was lunching.
Or apparently, she thought she did.
Here's what she had to say.
I can't believe this is our world.
I can't believe this is the universe that we now inhabit,
that we have to analyze the musings of a person who obviously is unhinged.
Actually, many people who are obviously unhinged.
This is what we have been reduced to here in the United States of America in the year 2026.
Here's Candace Owens.
But the person that Ben was with has allegedly
told various other people that he was with Ben when Charlie Kirk was shot.
Now, we were not able to confirm that they were at breakfast or lunch.
Only what came to us was that they were together.
And that person is a man named Gary Javich.
Ben was allegedly with Gary Javich, and an as of yet unidentified woman
when Charlie Kirk was shot.
Now, we have a strong guess as to who that woman could be,
but we'd rather not venture a guess unnecessarily.
So Gary Javich is not a person that you have likely ever heard of,
unless you are Jewish and involved in the community.
But he is certainly very well known.
Actually, very powerful.
And we weighed his identification, this identification, as likely,
determined it was probably likely,
given the reason that Ben was in Los Angeles on that September day.
Who?
What?
Who's the lady?
What?
What now?
So if this was Gary Javich, who, Javich, Javich, who, what?
If it was Gary Javich who called us in to pick up a $10,000 reward from Candace Owens,
then Candace, I'm sorry to inform you, you have been scammed.
In fact, every time Candace issues a guess as to who I was lunching with and is wrong,
I'm going to donate 10 grand toward the education of Charlie Kirk's children.
So now I owe her, go send me 10 grand.
I have a feeling by the end of this, she's going to impoverish me.
Okay, so I don't know who that is, like, at all.
I meet a lot of people, a lot, a lot of people.
I can guarantee you that Gary Javich, it's not the person.
I'm going to play a guessing game with Candace now because this is so stupid.
I can't believe how stupid my life has become now.
This is, this is where we are.
This loon bag is going around speculating that
randos are people that I had breakfast with on the day that Charlie was shot.
This is, this is where we are in life now.
This is where we are.
Oh, to the tune of lots of listeners.
People like this crap, apparently.
Okay, man.
All right, so you're wrong.
It was not Gary Javich.
Guess again, don't know Gary Javich from Adam.
I've never heard of Gary Javich.
If I met him in passing, because again, I can't testify as to like every single human I've ever
met.
Possible.
Don't know him.
Never breakfasted with him.
Don't know.
But again, this is the kind of genius level material that you are getting when you listen
to Candace's show.
Genius level stuff.
You're getting her speculation as to with whom I breakfasted.
Where did I eat?
I want to know.
Where did I eat and what did I eat?
And was it good for me or not?
What was I wearing?
Were my shoes purple?
Like what are, what are we even talking?
Maroon?
Was I wearing the maroon shoes, Candace?
This is where we are.
And people are so unbelievably stupid to take this person seriously.
But what I'm really worried about, honestly, is that Candace feels like she's extraordinarily
vulnerable to all sorts of criminal behavior and people scanning her out of $10,000.
So Candace, please, before you pay a rando $10,000, you should probably confirm what
they're saying is true.
Or you need to sign up with like home title lock or something.
Because I feel like Candace is making herself extraordinarily vulnerable to these sorts
of scams.
We'll get to more on this in a moment.
First, every few weeks, there's a new headline about some company getting hacked.
A database gets leaked.
Some app you signed up once years ago for to get a free coupon.
Apparently, it still had your email and password sitting in a spreadsheet somewhere unprotected.
You find about it the same way everybody else does.
Some notification tells you to change your password immediately.
Like that fixes the fact that it was already out there.
This happens all the time.
And it turns out you use that password for like eight different websites.
I can't control what some random company does with its security.
What I can control is what happens on my end.
That's why I use ExpressVPN.
It creates an encrypted tunnel for your internet traffic so your activity isn't just sitting out
in the open for your internet provider or advertisers or whoever else to see.
It also comes in handy if you're on public Wi-Fi at a coffee shop or an airport,
which statistically is not nearly as safe as you think it is.
I turn it on, it runs in the background.
I don't have to think about it.
That is the entire pitch.

And so here's the thing about Candace.
I mean, Candace is just, I mean, she's so desperate for attention.
So desperate for attention.
And most of what she does is projection.
It's really astonishing how much projection she does.
Here, for example, is Candace Owens talking about Erica Kirk.
If you substitute the name Candace Owens for Erica Kirk in this clip
of Candace about Erica, it all makes sense.
I've been on a wild pursuit of fame and fortune your entire life.
You started doing pageants, I think we showed, when you were like 12, okay?
Sixth grade, maybe?
And you have not stopped wanting to be in the spotlight.
Every person you have dated has had some degree of fame.
And you saw Charlie as your ticket to more fame.
And then you finally got it, in your view.
When you walked out in a white pantsuit with sparklers behind you,
and you sucked all of that in,
that was it, that was the moment.
We look back at those photos of people at the memorial,
I have never seen such glee and such happiness.
You clinked glasses, you guys then went to a restaurant, you celebrated.
Finally, Erica, finally for you, after decades of trying,
you had made it into the spotlight and everybody loved you.
Brand, merchandising, shirts, you got on that Zoom call.
The sales have been crazy, 50,000 shirts sold.
And kicked back into the LLC that me and the Charlie Kirk show people own.
For Charlie, for Charlie.
And then it all came crashing down because maybe Charlie had an actual friend.
That's what's annoying.
Me, I'm the renegade, I'm the one thing.
He had an actual friend who wasn't content to sell a t-shirt and move on,
and then sell some fed slop and move on, because the price was right.
That's what you're upset about, Erica, money and fame.
There is no substance in this article because there is no substance in you.
And that's my opinion, not a call for you to get hurt,
but me demonstrating that you have a character flaw that you are not even aware of.
She is the worst person.
I mean, truly the worst person.
Every single word she says about that is true of Candace Owens.
Every single word.
Again, these are people who definitely need a GoFundMe just to buy a mirror.
What an amazing video you just watched.
Wasn't that amazing?
