Every Receipt Proving Candace Owens Is A Con Artist Who Is Following The Money
Every Receipt Proving Candace Owens Is A Con Artist Who Is Following The Money

ET, June 1, 2021 — Candace Owens is moving full steam ahead with her weekly
foolery and pretentious, anti-Black outbursts, this time taking aim at tennis
champion Naomi Osaka. On Memorial Day, a day which was supposed to be housed in
reverence, Owens used her Twitter platform to lash out at Osaka over her
decision to prioritize her mental health and withdraw from the French Open after
voicing the press demands inhibited her wellness. However, in a matter of hours,
Owens quickly reversed her sentiments, largely due to the incessant Twitter
dragging she received. The optics didn’t go over and many resorted to giving
Owens the same energy that she inflicts on others especially when she should
have used the moment to support another young Black woman who was suffering from
mental illness and exhaustion. Almost two weeks ago, with her 15 minutes of
hateful infamy quickly dwindling, the sunken conservative white supremacist who
typically jumps at the chance to spew her anti-Black venom has selectively set
her spiteful sights on Chrissy Teigen, who has come under fire over a
cyberbullying scandal that involves a person dying by suicide. As a result — and
to Owens’ despicable delight — Teigan has lost a series of lucrative endorsement
deals. But, Owens wants everybody to believe, she would be “happier” if Teigan
apologized for her words. Owens’ goal is always self-promotion in hopes of
maintaining her loosening grasp on the few remaining shreds of relevancy she’s
been swinging from since her beloved Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. So it
makes perfect sense that in this instance, she tried to capitalize on a topic
that had nothing to do with her under the purported guise that she was simply
acting out of an altruistic concern that actually never existed. It was in that
context that Marlow Stern, the senior entertainment editor for the Daily Beast,
tweeted evidence of — yep, you guessed it — Candace Owens mocking Meghan Markle
for having suicidal thoughts and calling Kurt Cobain “stupid” for taking his own
life. Owens also had some choice words about Anthony Bourdain’s suicide. Those
damning receipts were just the latest instance of Owens deferring to hypocrisy
in order to ensure her name becomes a top trending topic on Twitter. Mission
accomplished, but at what cost? Remember, this is the same person who in March
went and reignited her running feud with rapper Cardi B in a disingenuous
attempt at championing women’s rights — along racial lines, of course. After
Owens — who, notably, has sympathized with Nazi leader Adolf Hitler and
repeatedly blamed Black men for being killed by the police — went on Fox News to
express her outrage at Cardi B’s performance at the Grammy Awards Sunday night,
the rapper fired back in a series of tweets, prompting a lively back and forth
between the two. Owens was angry that Cardi B was getting attention for her hit
song “WAP” with Megan Thee Stallion and suggested the rapper had no other
recourse than to sell sex. That’s when Cardi clapped back on Twitter and pointed
out that Owens was a major defender of former first lady Melania Trump, who at
one point earned at least part of her living by posing nude — also know as
selling sex, making her guilty of what Owens tried to shame Cardi for. The
exchange came a little more than two weeks after Owens labeled the former
president as a feminist — the same Donald Trump who once bragged he could
sexually assault women at will because he is a celebrity. All of the above is
also the latest proof among the mounting evidence that Candace Owens is a fraud,
and we have endless receipts. Lawsuit With the NAACP Owens now calls the NAACP
“one of the worst groups for Black people,” even though the organization helped
her win a racial discrimination lawsuit. In 2007, she accused some white boys of
racially harassing and threatening to kill her. Owens claimed the boys were the
son of then-Stamford Mayor Dannel Malloy, Connecticut’s former governor. Because
of the NAACP, Owens’ family received a settlement of $37,500 from Stamford
Public Schools. Scot X. Esdaile, the Connecticut NAACP president who helped
Owens with her lawsuit, was shocked to hear she had become a conservative.
Esdaile told Mic, “We’re very saddened and disappointed in her. It seems to me
that she’s now trying to play to a different type of demographic.” He also said,
“It’s the same type of thing Clarence Thomas did. [Thomas] reaped all the
benefits of affirmative action and then tried to roll over on it. It’s that kind
of mentality and disrespect.” Anti-Trump Website In May of 2018, BuzzFeed
reported that Candace Owens was the CEO of an anti-Trump, liberal-leaning
website called Degree180. Owens wrote in 2015 that it was “good news” that the
“Republican Tea Party … will eventually die off (peacefully in their sleep, we
hope).” Degree180 also talked about Trump’s penis size and him being racist with
an immigrant wife. The site reportedly shut down by the end of 2016 and Owens
magically “came out” as a conservative on YouTube a few months later. Fox News
By March of 2018, Owens was slithering onto TV stations and finally made it to
Fox News. She spit out a line that went viral and made her a darling of
pseudo-conservatives. Owens said the National Rifle Association was founded as a
civil rights organization that protected Black people from the KKK. Even the Fox
News host said, “I’ve never heard that before! That’s so interesting!” She never
heard it before, either, because it was a lie. Watch the insanity below:
PolitiFact confirmed she lied or is just willfully ignorant. According to the
NRA’s own web site, “Dismayed by the lack of marksmanship shown by their troops,
Union veterans Col. William C. Church and Gen. George Wingate formed the
National Rifle Association in 1871. The primary goal of the association would be
to ‘promote and encourage rifle shooting on a scientific basis,’ according to a
magazine editorial written by Church.” However, her fraudulent comment made her
a media darling. Another Lawsuit Back in January of this year, Owens attacked
New York Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez for being “fiscally irresponsible” because
the newly elected congresswoman couldn’t afford an apartment in Washington, D.C.
However, reporter Nathan Bernard exposed Owens by posting a lawsuit that showed
“she rented a $3,500 apartment, lived there for six months rent-free, then
claimed she had gotten ‘toxic mold sickness’ and threatened to sue her landlord
to avoid paying rent.” She allegedly stopped paying rent in September of 2016
and was evicted in January of 2017, which coincides with her “coming out” as a
conservative only months later. As for the mold claims, a legal analyst told
Bernard Media, “The obvious question is if the place was so unlivable why stay
there 6 months, even rent free? Why not get out of there especially if you can
afford an apartment for $3,500? It’s not difficult to identify a toxic mold
infestation either. If you started to exhibit symptoms that seemed related to
the infestation, why not notify a doctor immediately? Also, why sue a year later
after moving out? There are a lot of questions that arise on first glance at
this case. She’s going to have a huge burden of proof at trial.” Social Autopsy
In the spring of 2016, Owens launched an anti-cyberbullying website called
Social Autopsy. She reportedly started a Kickstarter campaign to raise $75,000
(she sure likes money she doesn’t have to work for). CTPost.com described the
site as a “searchable database of offensive speech found on social media.” Owens
wanted to expose people who anonymously harassed others online, which is known
as doxing and is a huge no-no among conservatives. She claimed she got pushback
from the left, which was allegedly one of the sparks that lit her conservative
fire. However, Quillette.com reported, it was the right who attacked her. “While
Owens portrays herself as a victim of leftist persecution, the fact is that the
initial backlash against Social Autopsy came mostly from the ‘cultural
libertarian’ opposition to the authoritarian left. YouTube video bloggers Matt
Jarbo (“Mundane Matt”) and Chris Maldonado (“Chris Ray Gun”), both strong
critics of ‘social justice warriors,’ were among the first to blast the project
as a terrible idea. Another early negative report came from none other than
Breitbart; it was written by Allum Bokhari, a frequent co-author of the
not-yet-disgraced Milo Yiannopoulos and a leading foe of the ‘SJW’ left in
digital and tech culture,” the site wrote. This would make sense because it is
clearly people on the right or MAGA crazies who don’t want to be exposed for
their hatred. You can hear Owens doing the voiceover for the Social Autopsy
video below: Blexit Her term Blexit, which got her embarrassed by Kanye West who
implied she “used” him, is a slogan that was stolen from the Bank Black
movement. Listen to the actual founder of Blexit, Me’la Connelly, explaining how
Owens stole her slogan: In addition, Owens’ Blexit site is packed with
historical inaccuracies. Historian Kevin Kruse broke this down for her on
Twitter and he was blocked. The thread is an excellent read packed with facts.
Within only a few years, Owens had two failed internet projects, didn’t pay rent
and then somehow became a conservative, landing a job at Turning Point USA. She
is now known for outlandish language. She said Hitler only wanted to make
Germany “great again.” After the horrific mail bombs sent to Democrats back in
October, she tweeted then deleted, “I’m going to go ahead and state that there
is a 0% chance that these ‘suspicious packages’ were sent out by conservatives.
The only thing ‘suspicious’ about these packages is their timing. Caravans, fake
bomb threats—these leftists are going ALL OUT for midterms.” There are true
conservatives out there who have been involved in politics for years, but Owens
does not appear to be one of them. She is clearly in this for fame, attention
and is following the money. SEE ALSO: Black Conservatives Denounce Candace
