Written by a constitutional attorney, the post reports that Owens has spent nearly three months promoting conspiracy theories implicating TPUSA leadership 'in the assassination of their founder, Charlie Kirk,' while portraying Kirk as 'emotionally manipulative' and 'inauthentic.' It describes Owens mocking Erika Kirk's public mourning and characterizing her grief as 'manufactured.' The core criticism is that Owens 'weaponizes disinformation and conspiracy' -- treating her allegations as baseless, defamatory disinformation causing real psychological harm.
