talk is cheap. Let's see the receipts
I've kept my mouth shut about Candace Owens, not writing much, if anything, on the subject — mostly because I couldn't make sense of whatever passes for logic in her head.
Besides, as busy as the news cycles have been, and her not being much of a priority, I didn't bother spending much thought on that whole mess. Recent events have changed that, and I find myself forced from the shadows.

So what do we have here?
Wounded pride. A quick profit off a scandal she manufactured herself, gift-wrapped as a some kind of righteous crusade. The moment her sniper shots at Erika Kirk drew blood, she was hooked. That dopamine hit works like any other addictive drug: it doesn't just own her now, it drives her. So does the podcast money. I refuse to be polite at this point, and pretend that what we are seeing is anything else.
Make no mistake: Owens built the corner she's standing in, brick by brick, and now she can't find the door — assuming she ever wanted to find it. Scott nails it in his piece: "As long as accusing Erika of being a murdering, unloving, uncaring, evil widow drives clicks and views, the more it'll happen."
Erika Kirk slammed attendees at the White House correspondents’ dinner who inspired the shooter’s hate but had intended to enjoy a luxury dinner with Donald Trump undisturbed, calling it the “ultimate hypocrisy” to “manufacture the hate and then profit off the results.” The crazies were “willing to have dinner with ‘Hitler’” if it meant free champagne.
Leftists believe in hurling the most inflammatory and vile rhetoric at their opponents, ginning up as much violence and chaos as possible, but never personally experiencing the negative results of any of their own lies. The same journalists and media anchors who spent years calling Donald Trump the greatest threat to democracy were cheerfully attending a dinner with him as the featured speaker, illustrating they didn’t really believe their own extreme rhetoric, as Erika highlighted. The problem is, Cole Allen did believe the rhetoric to the point of allegedly attempting to murder Trump administration officials at the dinner on April 25.
“We may have big problems with illegal immigration in this country,” Erika said. “I have to tell you, we have an even bigger problem when it comes to the systemic indoctrination and radicalization of our own citizens. This is what got my husband killed.” It’s what inspired Cole Allen.

She emphasized, “Many of the left-wing journalists that attended the WHCD have spent years consistently calling President Trump a ‘Nazi’, a ‘threat to democracy’, and ‘Hitler’,yet they still joyfully attended the evening’s event.” But if “they truly believed their own rhetoric, they’re either joyfully willing to have dinner with ‘Hitler’ or they’re lying to radicalize American citizens with narratives they know are grossly exaggerated.”
The Minnesota Attorney General’s Office secured a guilty plea Friday from the only defendant involved in the largest Medicaid fraud case in state history who is still in the United States.

In pleading guilty, Ibrahim had a racketeering charge and two additional theft by swindle charges dismissed. He agreed to pay $2.2 million in joint restitution and will be placed on five years supervised probation. His 150-day jail sentence will be stayed as long as he complies with probation and sticks to a payment plan that will be determined at sentencing.
A California man has been sentenced to 12 years in prison for allegedly committing wire fraud and laundering about $59 million.
Bruce Jin, age 61, a resident of Los Angeles, California, was sentenced on April 30, 2026, to 144 months in prison by United States District Judge Jennifer P. Wilson.
According to United States Attorney Brian D. Miller, Jin previously pleaded guilty on January 29, 2025, and admitted that he and his coconspirators Brian R. Cleland, age 72, and Carlos A. Grijalva, age 60, both of Los Angeles, California, along with other unnamed coconspirators, conspired to obtain state unemployment compensation funds and other public funds through fraudulent means.
Jin, Cleland, Grijalva, and others entered into a series of agreements to make it appear as if they were operating legitimate businesses selling masks and other COVID-19 personal protective equipment. The funds that the defendants obtained and laundered through their companies were derived from fraudulently obtained state unemployment compensation benefits. The indictment alleges that Economic Impact Payments, or “stimulus payments,” were also obtained through fraudulent means.
A federal appeals court in New Orleans Friday temporarily blocked a federal rule allowing the abortion drug mifepristone to be dispensed through the mail.
A panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Louisiana would likely succeed in its challenge to the federal rule that was adopted under the Biden administration, according to Reuters.
The order also adds to a lower court's ruling that found Louisiana and the abortion drug coercion survivor Rosalie Markezich would likely win the case, but said the lower court erred in denying immediate relief and the Food & Drug Administration can still complete its safety review of mifepristone.
“The public interest is not served by perpetuating a medical practice whose safety the agency admits was inadequately studied," the ruling reads. "Indeed, the public interest demands the opposite.”
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, in partnership with former Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg and President Joe Biden are the ones with Spirit Airlines’ blood on their hands after working tirelessly to block the merger of the budget airline with JetBlue.
...
Now that the company is dead, the hyper-progressive Democrat wants to complain about the lack of competition in the air travel industry.
Warren had previously touted the decision to kill the merger as a huge win for consumers and warned that the deal would’ve “led to fewer flights and higher fares.” The judge who was pressured into blocking the deal stated “to those dedicated customers of Spirit, this one’s for you” before immediately shooting the company dead with his decision.
I don't know, but I remember when a thug died while high on drugs and not following the instructions of law enforcement. The left burned down neighborhoods, looted stores, and assaulted people.
