The Hidden War Explodes: Erika Kirk’s “Egypt” Jab at Candace Owens Shocks AmericaFest – Inside the Bitter Feud That’s Tearing Conservatism Apart
In the glittering yet grief-stricken halls of AmericaFest 2025, held December 18-21 in Phoenix, Arizona, Turning Point USA aimed to honor its fallen founder, Charlie Kirk, assassinated on September 10, 2025, at Utah Valley University. What was billed as a unifying tribute to his legacy – complete with top Trump administration figures, JD Vance endorsements, and record-breaking attendance – quickly morphed into a battlefield of subtle savagery. Erika Kirk, Charlie’s widow and now TPUSA’s CEO, took the stage to thunderous applause, rattling off impressive stats: 80% new attendees, one-third students, 54% female, representation from all 50 states and 25 countries plus Puerto Rico. Then came the line that stopped hearts: “Don’t worry, guys, Egypt is not on the list.” Followed by a cheeky, “Oh, how funny. I say Egypt and my iPad turns on. That’s fun.” The audience laughed, but the internet exploded. This wasn’t random – it was a precision strike at Candace Owens, whose explosive conspiracy theories have haunted the Kirk family for months.
To understand the shockwave, rewind to the tragedy that shook the conservative world. Charlie Kirk, the charismatic 31-year-old co-founder of TPUSA, was gunned down by 22-year-old Tyler Robinson during a campus event. Official reports point to a lone assassin, but Candace Owens – once a TPUSA star and close ally – refused to accept it. In marathon podcast episodes, she spun a web of intrigue: betrayal by insiders, possible involvement from Israel, France, and most notoriously, Egypt. Owens claimed flight-tracking data showed Egyptian military planes overlapping with Erika Kirk’s locations up to 73 times between 2022 and 2025, even alleging activity near Provo Airport on the day of the shooting. “Egyptian planes were tracking Erika for years,” Owens declared, tying it to a broader multinational plot. She suggested Charlie was “betrayed” by those closest to him, casting doubt on TPUSA staff and law enforcement’s narrative.
Erika Kirk, raising young children amid unimaginable loss, pleaded publicly for the rumors to stop. “Please stop spreading conspiracy theories,” she urged, calling them painful and unfounded. Tensions boiled over, with critics like Laura Loomer branding Owens a “grifter” and Tim Pool accusing her of harming Charlie’s dream. Even Tucker Carlson initially echoed the Egyptian plane theory on Theo Von’s podcast before backpedaling. The feud peaked when Erika and Candace met privately on December 15 in Nashville for a grueling 4.5-hour talk, attended by Owens’ husband, cousin, and TPUSA execs. Both called it “productive” on X – Erika focusing on moving forward to AmericaFest, Owens hinting at lingering doubts.
But AmericaFest proved otherwise. Erika’s onstage quip – delivered with a smile but razor-sharp timing – was universally interpreted as a direct rebuttal. Viral clips racked up millions of views, with reactions pouring in: “Ooooooo Erika Kirk just took a jab at Candace Owens,” one X user posted. Another: “Looks like Candace is lying about how their meeting went.” CJ Pearson tweeted the moment, calling it a “clear jab.” Supporters praised Erika’s poise: “Strength and calm,” one said. Detractors worried about division: “This is tearing the movement apart.” Notably, Owens stayed silent on the jab, shifting focus to criticizing Ben Shapiro (another AmericaFest speaker who scorched her as spreading “conspiratorial nonsense”).
The “Egypt” moment wasn’t isolated. Erika’s full speech was a masterclass in resilience: endorsing JD Vance for 2028, vowing explosive TPUSA growth (50 new chapters daily, millions of students involved), and turning grief into fuel. “We don’t retreat,” she declared, echoing Charlie’s fighting spirit. Yet the jab lingered like smoke, raising chilling questions. Why reference Egypt specifically if the meeting resolved things? Was the iPad “turning on” a nod to surveillance fears Owens amplified? Experts dismissed the plane theory – Erika offered flight logs and alibis, proving timelines didn’t match. Fact-checkers found no evidence linking Egyptian aircraft to the assassination. Owens’ claims, often based on anonymous sources or “hunches,” evolved into broader attacks on institutions, even sarcastically mocking Jewish themes post-meeting.
This public shading shocks because it exposes fractures in MAGA’s foundation. TPUSA, under Erika, surges: sold-out events, church partnerships skyrocketing, campus activism exploding post-tragedy. AmericaFest drew over 25,000, a “packed house” tribute to Charlie. But Owens’ refusal to retract – insisting ridicule proves her right – fuels paranoia. “I haven’t seen compelling evidence Tyler acted alone,” she said post-meeting. Her sarcasm (dancing to “Hava Nagila,” fake “Shabbat Shalom” intros) alienated allies, amplifying antisemitism accusations.
As investigators close the book on Charlie’s case, the real mystery endures: Can conservatism heal? Erika’s joke, subtle yet savage, signals she’s done tolerating attacks on her family and Charlie’s legacy. “Come after me, call me names – I don’t care,” she once said. “But when you go after my TPUSA family…” The crowd’s laughter masked pain, but the message was clear: No more. Yet with Owens’ massive platform (millions of subscribers), the feud risks splintering voters ahead of crucial battles.
What haunts most? Charlie built bridges, inspired millions to “live with conviction.” His assassination galvanized TPUSA, but conspiracy chaos threatens to undo it. Erika’s stand – graceful, fierce – reminds us grief doesn’t weaken; it sharpens. As AmericaFest closed, attendees left energized, but online wars rage. Will Candace respond? Will this bury the hatchet or ignite full war? One thing’s certain: In a movement built on truth-seeking, unchecked theories can destroy more than bullets. Charlie’s dream lives – but at what cost if allies devour each other? Stay tuned; this story’s far from over, and the next twist could redefine the right forever.
