"Nonsensical"- Brandon Tatum addresses Candace Owens’ accusations related to Charlie Kirk’s death: Details explored

Conservative podcaster Brandon Tatum shared his reaction to Candace Owens' accusations against Turning Point USA. In Monday’s episode of his podcast, Tatum reacted to events that unfolded at this year’s AmFest, which concluded on Sunday. Tatum, who also delivered a speech at the event, shared his reaction to the escalated tension between Ben Shapiro and Candace Owens.

For the unversed, on the opening day of AmericaFest, Shapiro blasted Owens and urged other conservative figures to call her out publicly. Shapiro lashed out at Owens for accusing TPUSA of a cover-up in Charlie Kirk's death. The speech sent waves across the internet. On next day, Candace Owens clapped back at Ben Shapiro in her podcast episode.

The Candace host launched a verbal tirade against the Daily Wire's co-founder and said, "Truly, Ben Shapiro, f**k you and the midget horse that you rode in on." Ben Shapiro, in his speech, also criticized Megyn Kelly for not calling out Owens. Kelly also hit back at Shapiro and said she didn't consider Shapiro her friend.

While discussing the aforementioned controversy, Brandon Tatum shared his thoughts on Candace Owens' accusations.

"Candace is my friend. But I disagree with her. I call out everything that she said about Turning Point being involved and everything. I disagree with it. I think, to me, it is nonsensical to think that Turning Point, with no evidence, has something to do with Charlie's death or covering up his death... The hatred towards Israel and the things that Candace has said about Israel, I disagree with," Tatum said.

Later in the episode, Brandon Tatum said that he couldn't understand the backlash against Ben Shapiro. At the same time, The Officer Tatum's host recalled that he got very upset when Ben Shapiro fired Candace Owens from Daily Wire.

Brandon Tatum was among the very few people who supported Owens’ claims about an alleged assassination threat. For context, last month, Owens alleged that the First Couple of France had paid for her assassination. Back then, Brandon Tatum extended his support and said that her claims must be investigated thoroughly.

Megyn Kelly backs Candace Owens at AmFest while criticizing Ben Shapiro

On December 18, Ben Shapiro referred to people as "cowards" who were not criticizing Owens. Shapiro also took a shot at Megyn Kelly. A day later, the former Fox News host appeared on Turning Point's stage and fired back at Shapiro.

"He had the nerve to call me a friend right before he called me a despicable coward for not calling out the people he wanted called out. So he both wants to parent me and be my child... I resent that he thinks he's in a position to decide who must say what to whom and when, " she commented.

Megyn Kelly also revealed that Erika Kirk reached out to her to moderate her meeting with Candace Owens. Before concluding, Kelly said that she didn’t believe she had any obligation to stop Owens from asking questions.

"I didn't, and I didn't call her out because I favored her asking them," Megyn Kelly stated.
