Breaking News: Candace Owens Fires Back, Angering Bill Ackman: Leaked Messages with Charlie Kirk the Public Has Never Seen — Shocking Insider Details Revealed!

A Rift in the Conservative Movement

The tragic assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk on September 10, 2025, during a speech at Utah Valley University, sent shockwaves through the political landscape. Initially, the MAGA movement united in grief and outrage. However, this unity was soon fractured by allegations made by conservative commentator Candace Owens. Owens claimed that hedge fund manager Bill Ackman orchestrated a private “intervention” to pressure Kirk over his criticisms of Israel. These unverified claims reignited longstanding divisions within the movement about U.S.–Israel relations.

The Allegations: Candace Owens’ Claims

On her podcast, Owens alleged that Ackman arranged a coercive “intervention” targeting Kirk to pressure him into adopting a more pro-Israel stance. Owens cited a report from The Grayzone suggesting that Ackman and others staged this intervention at a Hamptons event to influence Kirk’s position on Israel. She further claimed that Kirk was subjected to threats and blackmail during this meeting.

Bill Ackman’s Response: Denial and Disclosure

In response to Owens’ allegations, Bill Ackman publicly shared a series of private WhatsApp messages with Charlie Kirk to refute claims that he blackmailed Kirk over Israel-related issues. Ackman clarified that the event was not held at his home but at a hotel, and all attendees were free to discuss it publicly, as no non-disclosure agreements were signed. He emphasized that his interactions with Kirk were cordial and that he had never threatened or blackmailed him.

The Fallout: Divisions Within the Conservative Community

The revelations have deepened the rift within the conservative community. Eric Bolling, an advisory board member of Turning Point USA (TPUSA), revealed that Kirk had distanced himself from Owens due to her extreme views. Bolling stated that although Kirk and Owens were once close through their work at TPUSA, they “had a break-up” because Owens went “too down the rabbit holes.” Owens declined to address Bolling’s comments directly.

The Conspiracy Theories: Unfounded Speculations

The assassination has ignited a wave of conspiracy theories, despite authorities identifying 22-year-old Tyler Robinson as the suspected gunman. Robinson reportedly confessed via text message to his transgender partner, citing Kirk’s “hatred” as his motive. Nevertheless, wide segments of the public have speculated alternative narratives, including involvement by transgender militants, far-right factions, and even Israel.

The Media’s Role: Amplifying the Controversy

The media’s coverage has played a significant role in amplifying the controversy. Megyn Kelly added to the debate by noting that Kirk had expressed feelings of pressure regarding his stance on Israel, though she did not affirm Owens’ more contentious claims. Many close to Kirk, including his spokesperson Andrew Kolvet, refuted Owens’ narrative, emphasizing Kirk’s cordial relationship with Ackman.

The Aftermath: A Divided Movement

The events surrounding Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the ensuing allegations have highlighted the growing ideological rift within the conservative movement, particularly concerning foreign policy and U.S.–Israel relations. The controversy has further fueled conspiracy theories and underscored the challenges in navigating public trust and the complex motivations behind politically motivated violence.
