CRITIQUE / OPINION by Dana Loesch — "DEBUNKED: The Latest Dumb Conspiracy In The Charlie Kirk Saga" (published 2026-07-09).
This is a third-party critique ABOUT the Charlie Kirk / Tyler Robinson case — NOT the court record. Indexed for comparison against the primary transcripts/filings AND against what the commentators actually said. Source: https://danaloesch.substack.com/p/debunked-the-latest-dumb-conspiracy

Loesch rebuts Candace Owens's claim that Ben Shapiro's security team could not have known Kirk was shot 'within just a few minutes,' with Owens questioning how they were already communicating with Kirk's security while he was 'in the car being' transported, and asserting it 'took a while' for video of the shooting to circulate. Loesch counters that the incident trended on social media 'minutes afterwards with endless video published everywhere,' and that she witnessed it live on-air along with thousands of others simultaneously. Her core criticism is that Owens fabricated a conspiracy theory on a demonstrably false factual premise about how quickly news of the killing spread.
