Title: PROJECT LOOKING GLASS: How Did Charlie Know He Was Going To Die?
Host: Candace Owens
Date: January 14, 2026
Episode Overview
In this solo episode, Candace Owens delves into the unsettling events surrounding Charlie Kirk's foreknowledge of his own death, exploring connections to government conspiracies, consciousness, and advanced technology projects like the CIA’s “Project Looking Glass.” Candace examines patterns and phenomena like the Mandela Effect, the alleged manipulation of reality, the panic within the so-called “Deep State,” and philosophical reflections on fate and evil in the modern world. Throughout, she maintains her candid, unfiltered style, mixing humor, personal anecdotes, and a conspiratorial lens on current and historical events.
Key Discussion Points & Insights
1. Mandela Effect and Reality Shifts
- Opening Theory: Candace humorously addresses the “Deep State” and references the “Fruit of the Loom cornucopia” and Mandela Effect as signals that reality is not as it seems.
- [00:38] "If you’re watching this and you don’t know [Fruit of the Loom had a cornucopia], I want nothing to do with you, you’re in the wrong timeline."
- Deja vu, Sleep Paralysis, and Inexplicable Phenomena: She connects shared unexplained experiences to the possibility of timeline manipulation and simulation theory.
- [06:04] "Deja vu is probably chief among them. We all have experienced deja vu... There’s no official expert explanation for that."
- Charlie Kirk’s “Time Traveler” Claims: Candace recalls Kirk’s repeated insistence he was a time traveler who would die young, reflecting on the eeriness and supposed inevitability.
- [05:48] "Charlie Kirk thought that he was a time traveler. He told me he was a time traveler repeatedly."
2. GATE Programs, Surveillance, and “Marked” Children
- Early Life Monitoring: Candace speculates that Kirk and others in gifted programs (like GATE) are identified and tracked by authorities from a young age.
- [06:41] "I'm of the opinion based on the discussions I had with him that he's been monitored since... They wanted to make sure he was being watched."
- Bizarre Incidents: Descriptions of Kirk’s strange experiences (e.g., streetlights going out during runs) are used to illustrate her belief that the gifted are perceived as threats or anomalies.
3. The Mandela Effect, Timeline Splits, and Project Looking Glass (CIA)
- Project Looking Glass Explained: The episode shifts to a breakdown of the CIA’s Project Looking Glass via clips from a YouTube channel (“Be Inspired”), which posits the Deep State uses ancient Sumerian technology integrated with computers to predict or manipulate timelines.
- [12:48] "They stole a device from the ancient Sumerian civilization... and then they incorporate it into a computer, and suddenly they're apparently able to predict future outcomes."
- Timeline Convergence (2012 Theory): According to whistleblowers (esp. Bill Wood), all possible futures converged between 2012 and 2016; after this, the authorities could no longer manipulate or predict outcomes.
- [14:03 | Bill Wood clip] "The project was shut down... timelines converge on that point in time... at the end of 2012... we're pushed into this bottleneck of time, no matter which choice we make."
- Influence of Operators: The thoughts of those near the device supposedly affected its outcomes, supporting a “consciousness shapes reality” concept.
- [16:30] "What they were thinking in the moment was changing future outcomes. Thoughts influenced future outcomes."
4. Media, Symbols, and The Matrix Parallel
- Cultural Rituals and Code: Y2K and the release of The Matrix are discussed as potentially engineered psychological thresholds marking a deeper shift in reality.
- [08:48 | Be Inspired] "Y2K wasn't about a bug at all, but a kind of global psychological reset... after, something strange started happening online..."
- Simulation Themes: Candace reiterates the possibility we inhabit a designed or managed reality (“glitches in the Matrix”), citing movie parallels.
5. Charlie Kirk’s Death and Agency Paranoia
- Foreknowledge and Inevitability: Candace revisits Kirk’s conviction about his own fate, treating it as more than coincidence.
- [19:47] "Charlie Kirk knew he was going to die. How? How was he so certain that he was going to die young?"
- Institutional Panic and Loss of Control: She interprets institutional responses to Kirk’s defiance as desperate attempts to avert a prophesied or uneditable event.
- [23:05] "Their solution was... just kill him. We can't have this. Ironically... his assassination catalyzed what they feared most – losing control."
6. Consciousness, Evil, and Societal “Awakening”
- Evil's Loss of Control: Candace theorizes the Deep State is panicking as global awareness grows, suggesting collective consciousness is key.
- [26:55] "I think our collective awareness is a threat. I think everybody picking their heads up is making them increasingly more frantic."
- Spiritual Warfare: She asserts that modern “Satanist” elites’ overt acts (media, pornography, pop culture) aim to distract, degrade, or eliminate spiritual awareness, especially Christianity.
- [28:30] "Their power relies on us being distracted... living of the flesh... The threat is us being aware that spiritual evil exists."
7. CERN, The “God Particle,” and Rituals
- History and Function: Joined by Mark, Candace explores CERN and the search for the Higgs boson (“God particle”).
- [33:04 | Mark] "CERN was established in 1954 to research particle physics... the search was on to find this particle."
- Alleged Rituals at CERN: Candace claims elite scientists were caught staging a (supposed) satanic sacrifice at CERN’s Shiva statue.
- [35:17] "They quite literally got caught and... were doing this nighttime ritual satanic ceremony, gathered around the statue of Shiva..."
- She mocks the official excuse that it was “just a prank.”
8. Media Manipulation, Daily Wire “Threats,” and Control
- Daily Wire Video Reaction: Candace reacts to a parody video circulated by her former employer, interpreting it as a veiled threat and another sign of elite panic.
- [41:35] "They are, they've just... unhinged. It's completely... gone masked down."
- Education and Historical Narrative Control: A clip of Mike Pompeo discussing editing history books about the Israel-Gaza conflict is cited as proof of reality manipulation and forced narratives.
- [44:13 | Mike Pompeo] "We need to make sure... the story is told properly so that when the history books write this, they don’t write about the victims of Gaza."
9. Q&A and Community Reflections
- Listeners’ Comments: Candace reads from the chat/comments about GATE program experiences, surveillance, fluoride distribution, military satanic ties, and theories on consciousness and child-manipulation programs.
- [49:48] "Sleep process is crazy. The hat man, Shadow man. The feeling like someone is on your chest. I was in gate as a kid. The pink drink." (Anderson)
- Optimism and Spiritual Victory: Candace closes with encouragement to maintain hope and integrity, trusting that “goodness wins in the end.”
- [56:54] "If our thoughts can translate into the future... I think what they didn’t like that they saw is that in the end, we win. Of course, we win. Goodness wins in the end."
