Candace Owens vs TPUSA: The Response That Changes Everything
TPUSA has finally responded.

TPUSA has finally responded. After months of escalating allegations, unanswered questions, and rising tensions in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s death, we now have an official statement—delivered by Blake Neff—addressing Candace Owens, the rumors, the finances, the security failures, the SD card controversy, the airplanes, the pastors, and more.
In this video, I break down the entire response, highlight the inconsistencies, compare it against what Candace has claimed, and point out the critical areas that still remain unanswered.
This isn’t about drama—this is about facts, transparency, and what really happened at UVU. No conclusions—just honest, careful analysis based on available evidence.
Do YOU think TPUSA’s response helped them—or hurt them?

Video Transcript
Hello and welcome back to Trigger Smart.
And as you all know, there was another
Candace Owens podcast yesterday. She
dropped some more bombs. She says some
more information and then she says
she'll string us along to the next
video, which is what she does. So, I'm
looking at the response from Blake and
the TPUSA team. But there's a few things
I found very interesting. Check this
out. So, if we look at the Charlie Kirk
YouTube page, which has 5.66 66 million
subscribers. If we scroll down, we'll
see the addressing Candace video that
we're going to look at 18 hours ago has
175,000 views. But if you look at the
previous videos, 10,000, 4,000, 8,000,
6, 5, 3, 9. So, no one cares what these
guys have to say. You know, 39,000
couple days ago, 4,000 4,000. So, no one
wants to hear these guys. No one cares
about anything they have to say, right?
If you have 5 million subscribers on a
channel, even if it was Charlie's
previously, you would expect
significantly more views than the teens
or less. And then the only time that I
saw something actually go up a little
bit was this one here where Erica had an
interview and she talks about who
Charlie really was. And that only had
269,000 views. You would expect
something like that to get a million
views, right?
So, just know that this channel, you
know, without Charlie Kirk is basically
failing. I also have another few quick
points. The first point is I don't think
that these guys should be using
Charlie's platform to address people
that are against TPUSA or to use it to
protect themselves or their name.
Charlie built this up. Yes, they were
with him in the podcast and stuff like
that and in the company, but they're
basically using Charlie's voice to fight
haters and people that are against
TPUSA. That to me seems wrong. I don't
think they should be doing that. This
should have been addressed on their own
accounts, which I believe Blake did on
X. I don't think it should be showing on
the Charlie Kirk podcast show. What do
you think about that? And then also
separately, it's very interesting that
Blake is by himself.
So why is Mikey McCoy not responding to
his own allegations?
Why is Tyler Boyer not responding to his
own allegations?
So they have this pre-made. They
probably all got together, use chat GBT,
and wrote this response letter that
Blake's reading and it seems very
mechanical. And real quick before I
forget, I wanted to address this. So
Harsh over at Harsh Reality, he comes
out and he says what a lot of people are
probably thinking is that uh Candace
Owens is making a lot of money off of
this and a lot of people are. I've done
some theories and things like that and
I've made some money off of it. He's
making money off of it. Coach Colin,
Jimmy Door, I mean it's it's content,
right? Content makes money. But with
Candace Owens, she has a huge audience
and she has huge sponsors. So, if you
really want to get into kind of the
numbers and and kind of what he
estimates he's making off of this, I
mean, it's in the several millions,
right? Um, but he was estimating
something like 250 million over a period
of time. So, just take that into
account. But my thoughts on it is I'm
not, you know, I'm not anti-Candice or
anything like that, but it's interesting
because say if she has this list of
facts. So, you would think in one
episode that's, you know, two or three
hours, she could give us all the facts
instead of like sprinkling them in over
multiple episodes, multiple sponsor
segments over multiple weeks and months,
right? So, I think there is an aspect of
this that is monetization for her, but I
think that obviously she truly cares
about Charlie and she is trying to do
what she can to try and figure things
out. But, we're not going to know if
this is just theatrics until after the
fact. So, as of right now, you have to
make a decision for yourself.
So, he also addresses too that some
people are maybe jealous that she's
number one. I mean, people like us, we
don't even compete in that arena. So,
that's that's not even on the radar. Um,
but he's he and other people have
mentioned people like um you know, Joe
Rogan obviously has been ousted for
number one. And then you have people
like Tim Cast, people are saying that
he's jealous and that kind of stuff. I
mean, these people have empires. They're
making millions of dollars every year.
They're very comfortable. Now, is there
a little competition there? Maybe, but I
don't think they're devastated. So, just
wanted to address that really quick. All
right. Other people have covered this,
but I'm going to give you my
perspective. Ever since Charlie's
murder, Candace Owens has leveled a
flood of allegations against people at
Turning Point US.
>> So, now again, the first thing I want to
bring up is that they're using the
Charlie Kirk show, Charlie's platform,
to address Candace. That to me just
seems kind of cowardly. And to be
honest, this is the most views they've
had in a long time on this channel since
they've taken it over. And I've also
heard some allegations that a lot of
Charlie Kirk's content, older content
especially, has been scrubbed from
platforms, including podcasts and on
YouTube and other places. Why would they
do that? Doesn't make any sense to me.
>> Say people at Turning Point Action and
people who work for this show. She has
made them against some of Charlie's
closest friends and against some of his
most dedicated employees.
She has suggested that Michael McCoy,
Charlie's chief of staff, knew Charlie
would be murdered, was happy that he
died, and stayed silent because he was
told he would be the next Charlie. Okay,
so things like those type of allegations
like her saying, you know, if if his
wording is correct, for her to say that
he knew he was going to die and he was
happy about it, you're just guessing. I
mean, you you can look at someone's
behavior and deduce things, but does she
factually know that? No. So,
technically, that's not a fact. That's
just her opinion. A lot of this stuff is
her opinion, and the things that she can
back with receipts, she's already shown.
>> She has suggested Michael is not his
real name. It is, I have seen his birth
certificate myself.
>> Why would he have seen his friend's
birth certificate?
That's just kind of strange. Candace has
suggested the Utah Valley University
event was unusual and its details
suggested a quote inside job.
>> It was unusual and there were some very
unusual things about it including the
final location chosen and the fact that
security didn't check the roof and some
other things about it. I believe that
Frank Turk also said that he had some
some feelings of like questioning the
safety and things when they got there
and then the fact that it went from like
600 students that were expected to over
3,000 people. I mean there there's a lot
about that situation that was not good.
She is
>> and also the fact that they didn't have
metal detectors, they didn't have
security guards checking people and they
didn't check tickets. So anyone was
allowed to go in. I don't know if that's
typical for these TPUSA
uh you know events, but that's what
happened.
>> Claimed that foreign aircraft have
followed Erica Kirk around the country
and that Turning Point has lied about
this happening. She has accused us of
lying about Charlie wanting air. So, on
the airplanes, there are some
allegations
from Candace that I believe Ian Carroll
and also uh Baron Coleman have been
following up on about these airplanes
that have been supposedly following
around Erica Kirk in like 68 or 70
different instances where they would,
you know, cross their the same point on
the map or something like that. So, I
mean, it's interesting, but there still
has to be some kind of proof. I mean,
right right now it's just uh
coincidence, right? So until there's
actually proof of something that
happened or is happening, then it's just
allegations.
>> Erica to take over for him if he died.
She has suggested Charlie's security
team intentionally denied him first aid
after the shooting to ensure that he
died.
>> Okay. Okay, so now on that one, um,
assuming Brian Harpole was telling the
truth in his interview with Shawn Ryan
and then his follow-up interview with
Paramount Tactical, he was saying that
he personally was giving Charlie first
aid within seconds of Charlie being
shot. And he said he gave him first aid
in the vehicle all the way up through to
the hospital. So that would mean that
first aid was not denied. It was given
by the security team, but there were
EMTs there that were denied. It seems
like
>> she has raised suspicions about the head
of our technical team because he took an
SD card out of a camera.
>> Okay. Now, the SD card is a big deal for
many reasons, but yes, they own the
equipment, so he could go and take it,
but it was a crime scene. So, he walked
into a crime scene and pulled evidence
and had it for a period of time before
supposedly, they say, turning it over to
the authorities. in that period of time
that he had it, he could have tampered
with it. If I have a SD card for an
hour, I can put it into my editing
program and do all kinds of stuff to it.
So, that's just one concern that I had
about that.
>> She has spread absurd claims that Tyler
Ber, who we just had on the show,
sexually abuses male interns. She's
>> okay. So, he is saying that there's
allegations that Tyler Boyer is
sexually, you know, you heard it, but
the thing that's [clears throat]
interesting is that they're not denying
that he's gay. She says that he's gay.
That's what she alleges and everyone
knows it. So, for a pretty hardcore
Christian establishment to have gay
higherups seems strange to me, but
that's if he actually is gay. and the
fact that he, you know, brings up this
intern thing. Um, he doesn't deny that
he's gay though when he says it. So,
that's interesting. That was interesting
point. And then also, I just did a video
yesterday and it does there there's some
allegations around some people that were
on redacted saying that Tyler Ber was
complacent in some of his subordinates
or, you know, peer executives being in
some inappropriate touch type of
situations and basically slid it under
the rug. And there were actual police
reports and things that happened.
suggested that TPUSA faith affiliated
pastors like theologian Frank Turk, who
we'll have on in a moment, and pastor
Rob McCoy, are part of a military quote
infiltration of Turning Point, either
because they are veterans or because
they have family members who are, even
if not everyone has been named
specifically though, Candace has
effectively tred everyone here with
complicity in Charlie's death by
repeatedly saying he was quote betrayed
by quote everyone. one.
>> No, that is true that she has basically
said that or implied that and that was
kind of especially early on, you know,
when she had the anger and she's
mourning and that kind of stuff, which
she probably still is mourning. Yes,
there there's that that list on X where
it's like, you know, she blamed the FBI
and then the CIA and then I'm I'm just
throwing stuff out there and and then,
you know, Mikey McCoy and then Tyler
Boyer and then Rob McCoy and then the
Egyptians and then, you know, basically
everyone is on the menu. So, that's kind
of what he was uh referencing. She has
made claims of financial impropriy and
fraud at turning point adding up into
the millions of dollars which again is
not true.
>> Now this is another piece. So if you go
over to Wolves and Finance you'll see a
video where he talks about well he
actually has two videos. So he has one
where he talks about the original
finances the 990 from TPUSA itself and
the other three 990s were missing. And
then he has a follow-up video where he
kind of addresses that and talks about a
company I believe it's called 110. that
one is like a shell company or a
business and he tries to go track it
down and he can't find it. But then
Timcast came out and basically, you
know, in his own way debunk the entire
video. So he said like, yeah, you know,
it looks suspicious if you don't know
what you're talking about, but in that
video he talks about how like there's
this one one owner of several suites and
this company that got paid $1.5 million
for like marketing and stuff, which is
not unusual for a huge company like this
in a year. But um he basically, you
know, says like he has he probably owns
the the business or the strip mall and
he has multiple suites and 110 could
literally be one office anywhere in that
entire mini mall strip. So I mean is is
there some funny stuff going on?
Possibly. But those those videos don't
necessarily prove that there's anything
illegal. And he even says it in those
videos that I can't prove anything
illegal is going on. He just thinks it's
suspicious. Charlie made sure the
organization was audited by a third
party every year. He personally reviewed
and he signed off on every expense
report and literally every single bill
paid by the organization down to a
single United States dollar. Okay, now
they're saying that Charlie went through
it every year and called for these
audits, which he did. But this year
specifically, remember he called for a
Doge style audit and they have since
from what I've heard reportedly they
have since cancelled that Doge style
audit since he passed.
>> We have never missed a 990 deadline.
Candace has made other stranger
allegations involving French par
>> for that 990 deadline. That's another
interesting one. So Wolves and Wall
Street said I believe it was May that
they were filed, but they didn't
actually show until recently. And um Tim
Cass was basically saying that it could
be possible that because of the
government shutdown that it delayed
things and that's why it actually became
public later, but it looks like it was
actually filed in May. Troopers in
maroon shirts, uh Egyptian Air Force
planes flying out of Provo, Utah, and
potential underground assassins
traveling through unseen tunnels. At
this at one point in early November, she
started wildly throwing suspicion on
members of Utah Valley's soccer team for
wearing hoodies. I could go on. There is
So that is probably semi-true.
A lot of people were doing that, right?
They're talking about, "What about the
tunnel under his feet? What about the
tent above him? What about the tunnel
behind him? What about those kids
standing over there looking weird?"
because everyone's trying to figure out
what the heck happened and they didn't
believe the official narrative.
>> There's always something new coming up
and none of it ever pans out because
from the start there has been nothing
there.
>> Now, that's just an assumption that
there's nothing there. But asking
questions and investigating and looking
for truth, there's nothing wrong with
that. It's supposed to be innocent until
proven guilty, not guilty until proven
innocent. So, you have to have receipts,
not just information, right? A receipt
is not just, hey, I have information
from this subscriber that emailed me.
That's not a receipt. And even finding
like flights and stuff like that. That's
not a receipt. A receipt is I connected
this exact thing to this to this and
that that specific thing resulted in
Charlie dying. That would be a receipt.
So, I kind of get what he's saying with
that. I'm in no way defending these guys
against Candace. I'm just saying like
when people are talking, you have to
really listen to every detail and
everything they're saying and their
mannerisms. Now, in this, I would say,
you know, you should read his body
language and the way he's talking and
stuff like that and his voice tone, but
he's very monotone, just reading off a
script. The attacks and allegations from
Candace are either lies or they are
innuendos thrown around with a total
reckless disregard for the truth so that
Candace can manipulate and string along
an audience of people who don't realize
they are being played. Now, that is the
same thing that Harsh was saying
yesterday.
He's saying that even if there is
something there, the way that she's
putting the information out is stringing
people along. And of course, she's
making a crap ton of money off of it.
She's already rich. Her husband's rich,
and now she's getting insanely insanely
filthy rich off of being made the number
one podcast and all the advertisements
and everything else and the views. So, I
get the frustration. you know, if even
if you're a huge Kansas fan, anytime
that someone says, "I have important
details and information." But catch that
next week on my next episode should make
you wonder a little bit. Instead of
being able to grieve properly after one
of the most heinous murders in American
history, a murder many of us had to
witness, my friends have had to endure
harassment from people who have gotten
whipped up by what Candace is saying. In
fact, I would say we have suffered more
harassment from these people than we
have from Antifa supporters who overtly
celebrate Charlie's murder. And just
like a lot of those Antifa members, many
of these people take this delight in how
gross and unpleasant they can be. What
our friends have had to endure is not
funny and it's not insignificant. It is
evil. I have seen it. Now this would be
if in the case that this is say this is
all untrue. Say everything that she's
saying and all the allegations against
them are are false. Just imagine the
damage financially reputation within
their families, their friends, TPUSA's
future. Just imagine how much damage
could have been done by that. So I'm
surprised at this point that there
aren't major legal battles and they may
be brewing in the background.
Maybe they're kind of waiting to address
her and that kind of stuff because
they're getting legal stuff ready. But I
mean, if nothing pans out, this is a
huge smear campaign against TPUSA.
>> For months, we have received hundreds,
thousands, I suspect, emails and calls
asking us to respond. People have wanted
us to invite Candace on the show. But
for a long time, our approach was to say
nothing. We did that for several
reasons. First, we've first we thought
that her prearications were so absurd
that nobody would believe them. We
shouldn't have to answer questions about
secret tunnels or Egyptian Air Force
planes. That sort of thing is just it's
beneath contempt to respond to.
>> I kind of agree there. Right. There's
certain things that um especially if
they're not privy to it, right? Say if
there was this huge operation and
there's all this stuff going on, there's
these planes and these other states and
things like that involved. What makes
you think that Blake would know about
it? I mean, even even if he was somehow
complicit somewhere along the chain,
what makes you think they would let him
know every detail of everything that
happened? So, I mean, that's one part of
it. The other part is, you know, a lot
of this stuff because she's basically an
investigative reporter,
at least right now for this piece. And
she is connecting a lot of things that
aren't panning out, like you said. And I
don't think it's just TPUSA and these
guys that are seeing it. There's people
all over ex and all over her, you know,
YouTube last night in her live stream.
As I was watching, people were saying,
"Where's the actual evidence?
Where's the proof?" You know, you have
all these breadcrumbs, but no final
destination. So, it it's just getting
interesting now. If she is correct, then
she would be the ultimate investigator
of all time, right? But only time's
going to tell who's right and who's not.
The second reason we've said so little
though is because there's a good rule of
thumb which Charlie followed. Do not
feed the trolls. Focus on the mission.
Reviving America, uplifting young
people, making heaven crowded. Don't
give air to people who want to tear you
down. And so Discord.
>> Okay, so this is an issue. So he is
saying and he acknowledged earlier that
part of the reason they didn't address
this yet is because Candace is a good
friend of Charlie's. and now he's saying
that they're addressing it because she's
just a troll. So, it's interesting how
there's like the two sides of the same
thing, right? They're saying on one
side, we're respecting certain things
that Charlie probably would have wanted
because she, you know, cuz they were
good friends. On the other side, he's
saying, "Oh, she's just a troll. Don't
give her air time."
>> Lastly, we didn't respond because
Charlie always viewed Candace as a
friend, and we were holding out hope
>> that she would return that friendship
and stop what she was doing.
But a week from now, it's going to be
three months.
>> Now, what he said didn't really make
sense. So, TPUSA was built by Charlie
and some others. Charlie has passed. His
show is not doing as well as it was
before because he's obviously not on it.
And they're they're scrubbing some of
his old content. So, they're kind of
erasing Charlie slowly over time, right?
And he's saying that
he would have thought that Candace would
have returned the friendship. Well, she
wasn't friends with TPUSA.
She wasn't friends with Blake. She was
friends with Charlie. So, what he said
didn't really make sense. It's like he's
trying to get let off easy because he
was a friend of Charlie's or a co-orker
of Charlie's. I don't necessarily think
that's how it should work.
>> Since Charlie's murder, Candace has not
changed her behavior. She has continued
to spread falsehoods about Charlie's
friends, and she continues to concoct
new ones about new people. She's using
these falsehoods to enrich herself while
dividing the conservative movement at an
absolutely critical time for this
country.
>> She is making a ton of money and a lot
of creators are. But these guys are
making a lot of money, too. So, I heard
they made like 80 million or 50 million
off of selling like t-shirts like he was
wearing that day, the freedom t-shirt.
So, they're cashing in on it, too. Not
to mention they've grown multiple new
chapters. They've opened more churches
or brought more churches into the TPUSA
fold, TPUSA faith fold I should say, and
you know, they have more pledges and
more donations than ever. So, they're
cashing in on this, too. And far too
often we here have heard from ordinary
people, people who loved Charlie and who
Charlie loved so much in return. These
people have expressed the worry that we
are staying silent out of cowardice or
as some sort of tacit admission that
some of the attacks are true. Neither is
the case. Our silence has never been and
it will never be equal to complacency or
approval. Still, we decided Charlie
would not allow this to go on. Charlie
was not a coward. Charlie was a fighter.
Charlie would not allow someone to
spread lies about the people closest to
him with impunity. And he would feel
ashamed if other people were stepping up
to defend his friends while he never did
so himself. Candace has mentioned
several times that the ball is in our
court. So, here's what is going to
happen in the near future. There will be
a live stream here in Phoenix where we
address in a clear and comprehensive way
the claims and accusations, the false
accusations that have been made against
Charlie's family, friends, and the
people here at Turning Point. We plan to
walk through everything carefully and
thoroughly. If Candace is available, we
would sincerely welcome her
participation in that live stream at our
studio here in Phoenix.
>> So, they have made this offer to her to
come live in the studio and debate this
stuff. I believe she's already accepted.
She said she would meet him in Phoenix
and she actually asked them to do it
like today, like immediately. And he's
saying it's going to be sometime in the
future, a live stream and uh they go
back and forth about the different
things. Obviously, she would have to
bring her security team and make sure
she's safe there because they want her
to go to Arizona where the offices are.
But I'm not sure if much would come from
this because she would be throwing
everything at them with her receipts,
but no proof of any wrongdoing
necessarily. And then on their end,
they're going to be defending themselves
just to try and save face and make
themselves look good regardless of what
the allegations are. So, I don't know if
anything would even come out of it
because does [clears throat] she have
actual proof of anything? If she does,
she hasn't shown it. She's shown
interesting things and coincidences and
you know whatot, but no actual like
because of XYZ from A to B, this is how
Charlie got killed. So, and I don't know
if she'll ever be able to. So, in this
case, while this would probably get a
lot of views, I'm not sure if it's going
to actually have anything useful come
out of it. I wouldn't get sucked into
that trap either. We believe the ball is
back in her court. Our motivation for
doing this is not out of any obligation
to Candace. It is about honoring
Charlie. We feel a deep responsibility
to protect his legacy, his work, and the
truth. I feel that.
>> So, they said they want to protect his
legacy, yet they're deleting his old
videos and his old podcasts off of
different platforms. Explain that to me.
So, I know that one was a little bit
long-winded, but what are your thoughts
on this? Do you think TPUSA is lying?
you think she's lying? And even more
important, what I'm starting to think is
that neither side knows the truth and
they're just attacking each other
because they don't know what else to do
at the moment. So, put your thoughts
down below and as always, like,
subscribe, and share this around and
I'll see you on the next one.
