The feud began last November when Owens tweeted that “no government anywhere has a right to commit a genocide.” Soon after, Shapiro publicly called Owens’ behavior “disgraceful”
Spoiler: she doesn't actually care about Palestinians, she's just anti-semitic.
Owens posted to X a series of Bible verses suggesting “you cannot serve both God and money.” That pointed remark was viewed by many as a not-so-subtle use of the antisemitic “dual loyalty” trope against Shapiro, who responded: “Candace, if you feel that taking money from The Daily Wire somehow comes between you and God, by all means quit.” Owens hit back that her boss was “utterly out of line” and “acting unprofessional and emotionally unhinged for weeks now.”
btw, pretty sure he couldn't fire her because the CEO wouldn't let him
Owens later liked a social-media post asking conservative rabbi Shmuley Boteach whether he is “drunk on Christian blood again” [and] defended Kanye West's remarks.
[She previously suggested] that 'secret Jewish gangs' control and perpetrate 'horrific acts' against people in Hollywood
Along with Alex Jones calling out Israel today using sober, legal, Antizionist language I think this is some new strategy: https://twitter.com/RealAlexJones/status/1770945312686830076
Israel has lost the high ground. This is not war. It is robotic mass genocide. Section 1091 of Title 18, United States Code, prohibits genocide whether committed in time of peace or time of war. Genocide is defined in § 1091 and includes violent attacks with the specific intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group.
Owens isn't being fired for Antizionism and after her response to BLM I am absolutely certain she has no moral loyalties to any group. She's the most manipulative person at The Daily Wire and has built her career off being a vampire toward everyone associated with her. She has had an extremely contentious relationship with The Daily Wire since Stephen Crowder was revealed as a domestic abuser, first turning on him and then feuding with Shapiro. This strikes me as coordinated kayfabe, either between her and some new group or her and Shapiro who's also protecting the even more antisemitic Elon Musk. My best guess is that they're using the imminent attack on Rafah to recuperate new Antizionists into supporting the Zionist far-right by outflanking Biden on the left.
Pretty sure Tucker Carlson is also doing some anti-zionism, he had Candace on his youtube channel after Ben called her out and they basically just criticized Israel and shit talked Ben together.
So three far-right propagandists facing imminent ruin unless they make an immediate pivot, but doing so for an audience that loves Israel because it keeps Jewish people from living here and hurts Muslims.
The audience they're going for is what I'm stuck on. With Trump being so tied to Israel and them to MAGA goobers, who are they selling this to apart from people entirely unfamiliar with them?
who are they selling this to apart from people entirely unfamiliar with them?
Neo-nazis? Idk you'd be hard pressed to find them liking Candace for obvious reasons
They love Owens for the same reason they love Shapiro. Having token representation is saying you can't be racist because you have a black friend and she'll say anything for money.
Good point I guess, they do love that kind of smug gotchas
These ghouls can only be right on accident because they're being horrible.
I hope she sue the daily wire for unfair termination.
not-so-subtle use of the antisemitic “dual loyalty” trope
lmao, she used the trope that they were greedy, this has nothing to do with dual loyalty.
Damn, I thought she had dirt on Shapiro and that's why she was allowed to stay for so long
Let's hope she gets back on her fee,t dusts herself off and then gets run over by a steam roller that's going 0.01 MPH. Feet-first.
And then it gets Ben next cuz he is too busy talking about his wife to get out of the way.
