Question: So-called Social Media MAGA “influencers” are critics of Candace Owens’ investigation of Charlie Kirk’s murder. Who are some — or all — of these influencers?
Answer:
Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA (TPUSA), was assassinated on September 10, 2025, during an event at Utah Valley University by a sniper, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, who was charged with aggravated murder. Since then, Candace Owens—a former TPUSA contributor and prominent conservative commentator—has used her podcast and social media to promote conspiracy theories suggesting the killing was an “inside job” involving TPUSA leadership, Kirk’s widow Erika Kirk, the U.S. military, foreign actors (including unsubstantiated claims of Israeli involvement), and even Kirk’s friends.
Owens has urged followers to pull donations from TPUSA, accused executives of betrayal and cover-ups, and claimed the Trump administration is suppressing the full story due to pro-Israel influences.
This has sparked a rift in MAGA circles, with several social media influencers—many tied to TPUSA or conservative media—publicly criticizing Owens for exploiting Kirk’s death for “clout and cash,” spreading “hurtful” slander, and undermining the organization Kirk built.
Below is a list of key MAGA-aligned social media influencers who have emerged as vocal critics, based on recent posts and coverage (focusing on those with significant followings and direct engagement since early December 2025). This isn’t exhaustive, as the feud is ongoing, but these represent the most prominent voices.
Key Critics Among MAGA Influencers


Broader Notes
- TPUSA Insiders: While not all are “influencers” per se, figures like Blake Neff (producer) and Erika Kirk (CEO/widow) have been central, with Neff challenging Owens to a livestream debate. Erika has appeared on Fox News to denounce theorists like Owens.
- Emerging Divide: Coverage describes this as a “full-blown civil war” in MAGA, with critics arguing Owens’ “just asking questions” style sows division and harassment, while her supporters see it as truth-seeking. Some posts suggest her claims have endangered critics (e.g., Tim Pool’s home shot at).
- Supporters of Owens: For balance, voices like Benny Johnson and Nick Fuentes have echoed her suspicions of a “professional hit,” but they aren’t the focus here.
This feud highlights tensions over loyalty, Israel, and institutional trust in conservative spaces.

JAKEGTV Awesome funny. Comedy is true
And Candace slides smoothly in to her early on skill and talent making me LOL.
Candace 19! Six feet away from Candace!
She’s got more courage in her petite self than a room full of influencers.
With my respect and affection for what Charlie has amazingly accomplished with TPUSA, here in the US and globally…my simple mind asks 2 questions: (1) why would any TPUSA “management”–want Charlie dead—he was their “cash cow”.
And (2) I can see where the “globalists” (there’s a lot under THAT tent) were absolutely threatened by Charlie and TPUSA…they’ve been overcome by his galvanizing people–Christians–young and old worldwide.
As for the “pundits”…they are going to grab their bit of notoriety at the moment. I am hopeful our FBI is tearing this case apart…
My life is usually a series of negative rather than positive choices. For rexample, rather than deciding what to eat, it’s easier to decide first what I don’t want to eat.
In a similar way, this is how I have navigated all of the insanity since 2020. I just had to look at who supports this or that (e.g., the vax) and then I know the opposite is true.
In this particular case, if I see people like Tim Pool and Laura Loomer on one side, by deduction I figure the opposite must be true.
I guess what I wrote is blindingly obvious (“duh”) but at the time it seemed like pure genius !!!
Just a few days, several days after the assassination, Tucker was sitting there with them at TPusa.
There was mention that Neff used to work for Tucker at Fox. But overall I got the impression that those TP officials were strung tight. Something off about the atmosphere.
So from early on there was pushback, denial/arguments against basically anything and everything CO said on her podcast.
to be honest, I’m neutral… waiting… not taking sides. I have questioned Candace MANY times over the years… unfortunately she, or anybody else for that matter, has provided the receipts…. yet.
but timing is everything.
yo’all should see the conditions here in Minnesota… it’s so bad. economically, geopolitically, and crazy social issues (think George Floyd, Ilhan Omar, Tim Walz).
early Merry Christmas everyone!!
You have my sympathy for living in MN….we have many folks in our retirement community now living here in No Central FLA (the free state of FLA)….they feel as you do, but they are living here and not there anymore, sadly many have alot of family still there….we also watched the wonderful presentation to the 1980 Miracle On Ice hockey team by DJT in the oval office yesterday…SO many of them from your beautiful state……the regret of what has happened there was obvious…..you have all our prayers and thoughts….same goes for our former home state of Maine….the Portland area is almost as bad as MN……..boy do we EVER need God more now than ever before…..we are on CO’s side as long as she continues to provide the receipts and very rational proof, and just pray that what happened to Charlie does not happen to her…..and then there’s France on her plate as well….a VERY brave young, accomplished woman….and a Patriot!!……all I can say to finish is…BUT GOD!!
I have never seen any other widow act like Erika Kirk. And what “Christian” organization puts on a Chabad dinner?
So tired of all the BS!!!
For SURE!!!! Just have to keep reminding ourselves all will happen in God’s time, not ours…….at this point of over 10 yrs+ into this rabbit hole we just want to live long enough to see justice done…and we’re in our 80’s….so, PLEASE God, hurry up!!
