Candace Owens has found herself at the center of a brewing storm of controversy that's been escalating over the past several days, with developments touching on everything from event cancellations to high-profile feuds and even presidential criticism.

The most significant recent development centers on Erika Kirk's last-minute withdrawal from a Turning Point USA event in Athens, Georgia, where she was scheduled to appear alongside Vice President JD Vance. According to Hindustan Times reporting, Owens publicly challenged Kirk's stated security concerns, claiming instead that poor ticket sales were the real reason for the cancellation. Owens took to social media asserting that Kirk pulled out because of bad ticket sales, pointing to other TPFaith events that had to be quietly rescheduled for similar reasons. However, intelligence sources from the Secret Service told CBS News that no credible threats were identified before Kirk's withdrawal and that the location was deemed secure with no known threats to the protectee. Despite this, Kirk maintained that she cited advice from her security team in light of ongoing scrutiny following her husband Charlie Kirk's tragic shooting in September 2025. Owens characterized the situation as both ridiculous and harmful, suggesting it reflected poorly on Turning Point USA's credibility.

The drama intensified further when Laura Loomer entered the fray with sharp personal attacks on Owens. According to Times of India reporting, Loomer made deeply personal remarks targeting Owens and her children, claiming that Owens hadn't been charged with cyberstalking and harassment, and stating that Candace's children are orphans in the sense that they lack a mother due to her focus on attacking Erika rather than parenting. This escalated an already contentious online feud between the two conservative figures.

Additionally, Laura Loomer raised claims about Owens allegedly holding dual citizenship, suggesting she holds British citizenship according to a legal document. Owens firmly denied this claim, stating she is literally not a dual citizen and challenging Loomer to verify with government sources. According to multiple news outlets, there is no verified public record confirming that Owens holds dual citizenship.

On the political front, President Donald Trump himself weighed in with criticism of Owens on Truth Social, calling her really dumb and mentally ill while grouping her with other media figures he views as opponents.
