Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk had a “productive meeting” with Candace Owens, signalling a possible thaw in their rift following weeks of public tension in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination. “Had a very productive conversation with @RealCandaceO,” Kirk said. “More to come from both of us. Looking forward to AmFest this week. Time to get back to work.”In a separate update on X, Candace Owens echoed the message, describing their hours-long meeting as exceeding her expectations in terms of agreement. “Erika and I had an extremely productive 4 1/2 hour meeting that I think we both feel should have taken place a lot earlier than it did,” Owens said. “We agreed much more than I had anticipated. Of course, we also disagreed on various points and people as well. Most importantly, we were able to share intel and clarify intent.”Critics have accused Owens of peddling conspiracy theories about Charlie Kirk’s assassination. Owens added that the conversation immediately helped ease tensions and said she would provide further updates on Tuesday. “I will of course have a full rundown for you all tomorrow as I am currently exhausted, but I wanted to quickly let you guys know that absolutely nothing was held back and the immediate result was that tensions were thawed,” Owens said.The discussion represents a bid by both women to address weeks of online conspiracy-related tensions following Charlie Kirk’s assassination.
