It started when Erika Kirk pulled out of a Turning Point USA event in Georgia where U.S.<!-- --> Vice President JD Vance was scheduled to speak. TPUSA said Kirk stepped back because of \u201cvery serious threats\u201d toward her.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"4\"\/>Kirk also shared her own message on X, explaining why she did not attend. She wrote, \u201cI was so looking forward to tonight\u2019s event at the @universityofga with our Vice President @JDVance, but after all our family has been through, I take my security team\u2019s recommendations extremely seriously.\u201d Her post sounded calm, but the response that followed changed the tone of the story.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"8\"\/><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2 style=\"line-height:1.38;margin-top:14pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\">Candace Owens calls out Erika Kirk and questions threat claims behind TPUSA event exit<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Candace Owens did not agree with Kirk\u2019s explanation. She replied publicly on X and directly challenged the reason given. \u201cStop. This is exhausting. You pulled out because of bad ticket sales,\u201d Owens wrote. She added that similar events had also been quietly changed or delayed.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>Candace Owens did not stop there. She questioned the idea of a serious threat by pointing to security around the Vice President. \u201cThe Secret Service sits above your security team. Were there actually a viable threat, the Vice President would not have continued the event,\u201d she said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/>Her comments quickly spread online, and the situation turned into a bigger debate. Some people supported Erica Kirk\u2019s decision to prioritize safety, while others sided with Owens and questioned the timing of the withdrawal.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"19\"\/>The exchange also brought attention to past tensions between the two. Their disagreement is not completely new, but this moment made it more visible. <!-- -->Social media users began sharing both statements and adding their own opinions, which kept the story trending.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"23\"\/>Meanwhile, TPUSA has not added much beyond its original statement about security concerns. There has been no official update confirming any specific threat details. At the same time, there is also no confirmed public data about ticket sales for the event.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/>This leaves the situation in a grey area. On one side, there is a claim about safety risks. On the other, there is a strong accusation about low attendance. Right now, neither side has provided detailed proof to fully settle the argument.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"27\"\/>What is clear is that this issue has gone beyond just one event. It has turned into a public clash between two well-known voices, and it continues to draw attention online.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"29\"\/><\/div>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/world\/us-streamers\/this-is-exhausting-candace-owens-intensifies-clash-with-erika-kirk-after-tpusa-event-exit-as-threat-claims-face-public-doubt\/articleshow\/130294044.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Erika Kirk and Candace Owens (Image Via Getty) The situation between Candace Owens and Erika&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":12131,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[29451,29456,29453,29457,29455,29454,29452,5406],"class_list":["post-12130","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-candace-owens-vs-erika-kirk","tag-event-cancellation-reasons","tag-jd-vance-news","tag-public-safety-and-events","tag-security-threats-in-politics","tag-social-media-debates","tag-tpusa-event-controversy","tag-turning-point-usa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12130","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12130"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12130\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/12131"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12130"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12130"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12130"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
