Anti-Semite Candace Owens dumped from Trump fundraiser


Candace Owens is the new face of American anti-Semitism. She has a lot of company, however, with university presidents and their students as well as Iran-funded protesters who hate Jews and Israel, as much as they hate America. 

Owens had been a weekly host on the conservative outlet the Daily Wire but was fired for her anti-Semitic sentiment and her downplay of the Holocaust atrocities. She even claimed that the experiments performed by Nazi scumbag Joseph Mengele on Jews during World War II sounded "like bizarre propaganda."

She was originally slated to headline the Friday event, which I wrote about, but having her at the event ignited a ton of backlash due to her recent anti-Semitic comments.

Donald Trump Jr. was also planning on attending.

“Donald Trump Jr. is making an appearance with Candace Owens, who recently suggested that the real victims of WWII were not the Jews but the Germans and the real villains not the Axis but the Allies,” Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY) wrote on X/Twitter after the initial announcement.

Dov Hikind, a former New York State Assemblyman from Brooklyn, New York and founder of Americans Against Antisemitism, argued on social media that the Trump campaign “being so closely associated with her [Owens] and the disgusting behavior we’ve witnessed from her almost daily, makes it near impossible to make the case to the Jewish people that the Republican Party is where we can trust that antisemitism in any form will not be tolerated.”

It was after these and many other negative responses about Owens' attending the event that she was removed from the poster  and no longer attending the event in Nashville, Tennessee.

“It was never announced Candace was hosting an event with” the Trump campaign, a spokesperson for Owens told Jewish Insider.

Perhaps not, but it certainly seemed that it was announced.

Owens got into a verbal altercation with a reporter on X who said she was kicked out of the event over her recent comments, including her suggesting on her podcast that AIPAC, the largest pro-Israel lobbying organization in the United States, was involved in the assassination of John F. Kennedy. 

So in her warped mind, Lee Harvey Oswald was working for Israel or the American Jews. How did she make that bizarre connection? Oh wait, it's like the connection liberals make when a conservatives states a truism, calling them racists. 

She even claimed in the same podcast episode that the US is being “held hostage by Israel.” In other words, if the US doesn't do the bidding of Israel, Americans are no longer going to receive Israeli-made tahini sauce.  

The reporter mentioned above, Stella Escobedo, posted that she could confirm that Owens was off the panel for this week.

“I’m told it was a group of Bitcoin guys, not politicians who organized the event and didn’t know about her Jew hatred,” she tweeted.

“I’m told Don Jr. was invited to the event prior to Candace being added to panel. Zero tolerance for antisemitism.”

Owens denied the accusation saying, “I was definitively not canceled from any event over ‘Jew hatred,’ least of all because of anything to do with Trump’s campaign. This is just entirely made up out of thin air.”

Sorry, Candy, but I don't believe you.

The event in Nashville was billed as a “VIP Meet & Greet” and reportedly costs as much as $5,000 to attend. I probably won't make it.
