Candace Owens Exposes Josh Hammer's Mysterious Public Execution Tweet Hours Before Charlie Kirk's Assassination

Categories: Investigation
October 8, 2025

Candace Owens reveals disturbing details surrounding Charlie Kirk's death, focusing on Josh Hammer's inexplicable retweet calling for public executions just 16 hours before the assassination. After weeks of Josh Hammer claiming Charlie never wavered on Israel, evidence has emerged proving he knew Charlie's views were changing. Owens documents the lies, the pressure campaigns, and the suspicious behavior of those who claimed to be Charlie's friends. With a detailed timeline of events and text message evidence, she questions why those closest to Charlie have been so desperate to control the narrative about his final days.

The Mysterious Retweet That Changes Everything

Just 16 hours before Charlie Kirk was assassinated, Josh Hammer retweeted a 2013 post from Donald Trump calling for public executions. The tweet simply said "based" in response to Trump's statement: "Should be public execution for all to see. You will end this bull fast." This occurred at approximately 9:05 p.m. Eastern time on September 9th, the night before Charlie's death.

What makes this particularly troubling is that Josh Hammer had already admitted he and Rabbi Pesach Wolicki had a lengthy conversation with Charlie that same night. He was proud of this fact, repeatedly mentioning it in interviews and social media posts following Charlie's death. The question becomes: why would someone dig through 12-year-old tweets to retweet a call for public executions hours before their friend is killed?

Hoisted By His Own Petard

For weeks after Charlie Kirk's assassination, Josh Hammer obsessively accused people of lying and grifting, claiming they were trying to destroy Charlie's legacy. He insisted Charlie never once flinched on the topic of Israel, that Charlie died loving Israel above all else. His tweets were manic and repetitive: "There is a repulsive op right now to hijack Charlie Kirk's legacy." "Tucker, Candace, and other bad faith actors are lying through their teeth about Charlie and Israel." "Candace Owens and other grifters are trying to posthumously rewrite and hijack the legacy of the great Charlie Kirk."

Josh Hammer was certain the truth would not rise again. He was confident he had killed it and could himself hijack Charlie's legacy. Except the truth did rise again. It always does. The world now knows that Josh Hammer had personal, intimate knowledge that Charlie's views were changing. He lied about the Hamptons meeting. Seth Dillon and Josh were personally upset with Charlie's defiance against the state of Israel. Seth Dillon was more vocal in pressing Charlie, but both were upset about his shifting viewpoints. Tucker Carlson was therefore correct at Charlie Kirk's memorial when he spoke about individuals who plot and lie, thinking they can murder the truth.

The Timeline That Doesn't Add Up

A detailed examination of Josh Hammer's tweets on September 9th reveals what was occupying his attention that day. He tweeted nine times total:

  • 7:30 AM - Tweeted about a viral Phillies crowd scandal
  • 7:36 AM - Shared a link to his media appearance about Iryna Zarutska, where he did NOT call for the death penalty
  • 9:23 AM - Attacked Tucker Carlson
  • 9:29 AM - Tweeted in favor of Israel, threw shade at Trump regarding Qatar after Israel bombed Qatar
  • 11:33 AM - Attacked Saudi Arabia for their statement against Israel
  • 3:00 PM - Attacked Tucker Carlson again for telling the truth about Israel and 9/11
  • 5:58 PM - Promoted a speech about the Hebrew Bible being the basis of Western civilization
  • 5:59 PM - Promoted his Supreme Court media appearance
  • Then a three-hour break
  • 9:09 PM - Tweeted in favor of public execution with no context provided

Defenders tried to claim Josh was referring to the criminal who murdered Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska in North Carolina. However, this explanation doesn't hold up. Iryna was murdered on August 22nd. Her perpetrator was arrested that same day. The footage was released and trended on X on September 5th, four days before Josh's tweet. When Josh spoke about this case in media appearances, he never once mentioned the death penalty or public executions. Instead, he discussed media coverage double standards and criminality in America.

The Difference Between Death Penalty Debate and Public Execution Calls

Debating the death penalty is a common political talking point. Calling for public executions is not. It's an exceedingly specific ask, usually reserved for visceral responses to something seen in the moment. Matt Walsh, for example, did call for public execution when the footage dropped on September 5th, providing immediate context for his emotional reaction to seeing a woman victimized in such a horrific way.

Josh Hammer is a lawyer by training, former editor at large of the DailyWire+, and current senior editor at large at Newsweek. He hosts his own show. He knows how to communicate. He understands you don't send out a standalone tweet at 9 PM and expect everyone to understand what you mean without providing context. Yet he offered none.

The Last Phone Call

Josh Hammer proudly told everyone who would listen that he spoke to Charlie the night before he died, likely during that three-hour window. He bragged that he and Rabbi Wolicki had a Zoom call with Charlie because Charlie wanted help with his talking points about Israel. This is notable because Charlie Kirk was one of the most skilled debaters ever. The idea that he needed debate tips from a rabbi in Israel and Josh Hammer is strange.

In Josh's first tweet after news broke that Charlie had died, he managed to bring up his book: "I am speechless, devastated, and heartbroken. We spoke less than 24 hours ago. Charlie joked how he was going to plug my book on this very tour. He was a unique force, a generational leader. Pray for Charlie's beautiful wife and their young children. Rest in peace, warrior."

Days after Charlie's death, Josh went on JTV, the global Jewish channel, to discuss that last call. He claimed: "We were literally talking above all about the anti-Israel questions that he expected to receive on this campus tour. The last words I think Charlie spoke to me where he literally said, you know, Josh, when the Israel question comes up, I'm just going to plug your book."

The Pressure Campaign Nobody Can Deny

What's now established fact is that Josh Hammer knew Charlie Kirk's perspectives on Israel were changing. Just 48 hours before that phone call, Charlie had expressed frustration with Jewish donors and their behavior, stating he had no choice but to abandon the pro-Israel cause because of this pressure. Both Josh Hammer and Rabbi Wolicki were on the text chain where Charlie expressed this frustration. They knew he was angry.

Yet Josh wants everyone to believe that less than two days after expressing this frustration, Charlie decided to have a friendly Zoom call with two of the very people who knew about his anger, and that this conversation wasn't a follow-up to his expressed concerns, but rather just Charlie being a superfan of Josh's book, wanting to strategize how to promote it.

Then, on that same day as the Zoom call, Charlie was texting people saying "they are going to kill me." This is a fact. And people are supposed to believe that by "they," Charlie meant Tyler Robinson, the individual now charged with his murder.

Rabbi Wolicki's More Honest Assessment

Rabbi Wolicki, to his credit, has been somewhat more honest than Josh Hammer. When asked if Charlie was turning on Israel, he acknowledged: "He certainly had some disagreements with Israeli policy and he criticized Israel where he felt appropriate. There were a lot of people around him in the America First movement who were actively working on him to try to get him to turn on Israel."

The rabbi explained that Charlie called the meeting because he was going on a campus tour and "between 40 and 50% of all the questions and challenges that he would get on these campus tours were usually about Israel. It drove him crazy because he wanted to talk about America, but he was defending Israel all the time."

At least Rabbi Wolicki acknowledges something was going on, that Charlie was under pressure and uncomfortable with constantly defending Israel when he had other things he wanted to discuss.

A Pattern of Bigoted Statements

Josh Hammer's credibility is further undermined by his history of prejudiced statements. In 2019, he tweeted: "Jew hatred is inherent in the European DNA." When challenged, defenders claimed he meant it "metaphorically," though it's unclear how explicitly stating that hating Jews is inherent inside white people could be considered a metaphor. This tweet has since been deleted, but there were no consequences for this openly bigoted statement against white people.

Josh Hammer is obsessively angry, viewing himself not as white but as a separate race. He has openly expressed prejudice against white people, yet continues to hold prestigious positions at major publications.

The Coordinated Attack Campaign

The Zionist lobby has deployed virtually every available voice to attack those asking questions about Charlie's death. Dinesh D'Souza recently joined the fray with a bizarre tweet comparing coverage of these events to "driving on the highway and seeing a farmer having sex with a sheep. You don't want to look, but you can't look away either." When called out for the strangeness of this comparison, he claimed it was a joke, but the intent was clear.

Yashar Ali, who is paid to do PR for Zionists on both the right and left, tried to provide cover for Josh Hammer's public execution tweet, claiming definitively it was about Iryna Zarutska's murder. But the timeline and Josh's own words contradict this explanation.

Why The Truth Matters More Than Institutions

Some have expressed concern that this investigation could destroy Turning Point USA. The response is simple: if the truth is capable of destroying your company, then does your company deserve to exist? If people learning the truth about an organization threatens its existence, that says everything about the organization's foundation.

It's important to note that amazing people work at Turning Point USA. The overwhelming majority of employees are good people who had no say in the direction leadership has taken. This investigation is actually being assisted by Turning Point employees on the ground, smaller employees that executives don't think about, who deeply care about finding answers regarding what happened to Charlie Kirk.

The Threat Is Real

The day Charlie died, multiple phone calls warned that both Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson should lay low because they were also "on the list." Looking back, questions arise: was that supposed to be a threat? A message to watch the public execution of a friend and understand that speaking truth could result in the same fate? Why weren't these callers more forthcoming about exactly who told them this information?

The people being fought against are dangerous. They are growing increasingly desperate and panicked. People who are evil in this way are not to be underestimated. That's why a kill switch became necessary, information distributed to trusted individuals including the Tate brothers, Dave Smith, Max Blumenthal, Tucker Carlson, and others, to be released if anything suspicious happens.

The Behavior That Raises Suspicions

Initially, there was no proof and no reason to suspect Israeli involvement in Charlie's death. It genuinely seemed unlikely. But the insane behavior of covering up and lying has made people question things. Questioning doesn't mean there's proof, which is why there has been reluctance to make direct accusations. But the behavior isn't right. Little lies only exist to cover up bigger lies.

When BB Netanyahu invited Charlie to Israel two weeks before he died, what was the context? They obviously weren't close if Netanyahu didn't even have Charlie's number in May, according to the released letter. So why the invitation? Why did Netanyahu feel compelled to release propaganda just 24 hours after Charlie's death, claiming they definitely didn't kill him? Why did Operation Mormon pastor or president never materialize, with Mormon leaders feeling the need to baselessly defend themselves? Because normal people, when someone is murdered, want to know the truth, not control the narrative.

A Call for Video Evidence

Specific footage is being sought from UVU campus from the day of the shooting. Specifically, video of any older males with long hair worn in a ponytail or bun. Also needed is footage from the left side of Charlie as he faced the crowd, a section where there's an almost incomprehensible lack of available video. It's like a black hole where footage should exist but doesn't.

Turning Point USA is not releasing their 4K or 5K footage, which would be helpful, so this investigation must proceed organically, which takes much more time. Those with footage can send it to tips@candaceowens.com with "footage at UVU" in the subject line.

Not All Jews Are Josh Hammer

It's important to remember that the radical sect with power in America doesn't represent all Jewish people. The Dave Smiths of the world, regular people who grew up in diverse communities, are nothing like the Josh Hammers. When engaging in politics, what you see is so ugly that stereotypes seem confirmed, but what's actually being witnessed is the stranglehold of a political action committee.

Any lobby in DC can make you hate someone. The pharmaceutical lobby makes people hate pharmaceutical companies. The Jewish lobby makes people hate Jews. The Black Caucus makes people hate black people. People who go to DC are incredibly corrupt. Money rules them. They become powerful. Power corrupts absolutely. It's good to remember that most people are not like Josh Hammer. They're funny, can make fun of themselves, and don't behave like psychopaths.

The Questions That Remain

Why did Josh Hammer tweet about public executions with no context 16 hours before Charlie was killed? Why did he lie so audaciously about Charlie's views on Israel? Why was Charlie under so much pressure in his final weeks? Why did people who claimed to be his friends stress him out and make him anxious, then eulogize him and lie about all of it?

The natural response when someone lies in this way is to wonder what else they're lying about. Would Josh be trusted if he came out now and said that tweet was definitely about Iryna Zarutska, even though he didn't contextualize it and spent all day tweeting about Israel? These are the questions that demand answers, and the truth will continue to rise, no matter how many try to bury it.
