'Bit weird, right?' MAGA darling accuses Trump of burying Charlie Kirk murder probe

MAGA influencer Candace Owens called out President Donald Trump on Wednesday because of the president's seeming disinterest in keeping the public informed about the investigation into conservative activist Charlie Kirk's killing in September.

Owens discussed the administration's "silence" about the investigation during a new episode of her podcast, "Candace." She blamed the influence of the "pro-Israel lobby" for keeping the investigation under wraps.

"I knew spiritually, from the moment Charlie Kirk passed, that we were never going to get the full story from officials," Owens said. "I can't explain it. I felt that way. And then when Trump rushed to Truth Social-out that AI-generated photo of him and Charlie with the Star of David in the background, I just knew. I knew the investigation into who murdered Charlie Kirk was 'officially' over."

"Find me just one person with a platform who is pro-Israel who says 'I want the investigation into [Kirk's] death to continue,'" Owens continued. "It's a bit weird, right?" Dogs, very silent right now. And there's a steak on the ground, and they're not moving."

Owens added that Trump's decision to declare a national day of remembrance for Kirk was another sign that the government "is not trying to solve what happened here."

"I think it's crap," Owens said. "It's never good when the feds are lining up to give you a holiday. Martin Luther King, Jr. vibes. I definitely think the feds killed Martin Luther King Jr... I don't like it. The best way to honor Charlie Kirk is to figure out who killed him."
