MEDIA LOSER:
Candace Owens
Candace Owens believes hospitals and the federal government intentionally killed Covid patients to drive up numbers.
The wild conspiracy theory came while Owens spoke with Charlie Kirk during a stop on TPUSA’s ‘Educate Don’t Mandate’ Tour.
“I’m a big believer that they intentionally killed people in hospitals during Covid,” Owens flatly stated.
“There was no question that they colluded to kill American citizens so they could fluff numbers and say that people died from COVID,” Owens said. “So, from top to bottom, yes, our government wanted people to die. There’s no question. Because it fed the narrative.”
“But we have criminals and, like I said, drug cartel leaders that are running our government and it’s despicable. I will not mince words when it comes to those awful human beings,” she said.
These comments went beyond the usual brand of Candace Owens conspiracy theory kookery, and past her past irresponsible statements. This is dangerous and unstable lunacy.
Oh look, she was right about something, after all. Not mincing words about people being absolutely awful really does have its merits!
