Candace Owens Claims Egyptian Ties in Kirk Assassination Probe

Candace Owens has made new allegations regarding the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, claiming that individuals connected to the incident traveled to Utah prior to his death. In a post on X on November 27, 2025, Owens asserted that these alleged Egyptian operatives stayed at the La Quinta Inn & Suites in Orem, Utah, suggesting they may have been involved in the events leading to Kirk’s assassination.

Owens stated that the group arrived in Utah on September 4 and remained until September 13. She described the information as a “MAJOR BREAK” and indicated she received confirmation from someone involved in the hotel booking process. This latest claim adds to ongoing public speculation and concern regarding the circumstances surrounding Kirk’s death, which has become a focal point for Owens amid her legal challenges.

The reactions to Owens’ claims have been mixed. While some users expressed skepticism about how hotel staff could accurately identify guests as operatives, others supported her call for local residents to check surveillance footage from the area surrounding the hotel. Owens urged store owners and hotel workers to recall any unusual activities, inviting the public to send any relevant videos or images to her email for further investigation.

As Owens continues to assert connections between foreign operatives and Kirk’s assassination, she faces significant legal challenges. In July, French President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron filed a defamation lawsuit against her. This legal action arose from Owens’ earlier claims that Brigitte Macron is a man, a conspiracy theory that gained traction online and has drawn criticism for its unfounded nature.

Owens has intensified her rhetoric, linking various foreign actors to the assassination. Her assertions include allegations that a team within the National Gendarmerie Intervention Group (GIGN) was involved and that payments related to the conspiracy flowed through a French entity known as the Club des Cent. Despite her claims, the GIGN has publicly denied any involvement in assassination activities, stating that their focus is strictly on counter-terrorism and rescue missions.

In response to her mounting allegations, some critics have pointed out that evidence more convincingly points to a lone gunman, identified as Tyler Robinson. The French Ministry of Armed Forces has also refuted claims linking Robinson to the French Foreign Legion, clarifying that he had never served in that capacity.

While Owens has faced scrutiny for her increasingly extreme positions, she maintains a following that supports her investigative efforts. Many believe she is performing a role traditionally associated with journalists by seeking public assistance in uncovering the truth behind Kirk’s assassination. The ongoing legal and social implications of her statements continue to fuel debate around the case, raising questions about the intersection of conspiracy theories and public discourse.

As the investigation unfolds, Owens’ claims and their reception will likely continue to attract attention, especially as she navigates the legal challenges posed by the Macron lawsuit while making new allegations regarding international operatives and covert actions.
