Political commentator Candace Owens is once again speaking out about what she believes is possible misappropriation of campaign funds by Baltimore politician Kimberly Klacik. 

Owens took to Instagram Live Tuesday, about 48 hours after a bitter back-and-forth feud with Klacik who is considered a rising star in the Republican party. Klacik’s campaign last year, which centered on highlighting flawed Democrat policies, raised a whopping $8.2 million.

Tuesday, Owens in a video titled “Race Hustling on The Right” revealed some shocking information which she says was obtained by talking to people who know Klacik well. 

“This may have started as conservatives in-fighting, what actually is happening now is that I have stumbled upon something that no conservatives, or a majority of conservative Republicans, are aware of. There is so much here about Kimberly Klacik that it is overwhelming.” 

On Sunday, Barrett News Media reported that Klacik refused to go on Owens’ Daily Wire show because she feared it could be altered. The entire exchange between the two on Father’s Day was ultimately deleted and Klacik reportedly blocked Owens. 

In a scathing rebuke, Owens unleashed several concerning details about the nature of Klacik’s campaign and the way she raised and spent money.

“I wanted to hold off on a live and I didn’t want to be irresponsible,” Owens said Tuesday. “The only reason I started this is what started as a petty Twitter feud, led me down a path with so many twists and turns, I am like this is crazy.” 

Among the revelations that arose from Owens 45-minute IG Live broadcast were the fact that Klacik was a former stripper nicknamed “September” who eventually married the manager. Owens also revealed that she spoke to a stripper who claimed to know Klacik. Owens said the stripper said that Klacik and her husband used “campaign funds to do cocaine.” 

“What this stripper is alleging would be a crime obviously,” said Owens. “I can’t verify that information, there is no way to verify that.” 

Owens cited several other facts that she uncovered that, if proven true, would be a big blow to Klacik who has rubbed elbows and networked with some of the most powerful Republicans in the world. 

Klacik, now a frequent Fox News and Newsmax commentator, lost in Maryland’s 7th Congressional District by more than 40 percentage points last year.

One of Elon Musk’s most significant challenges, as he now owns Twitter, lies on the financial side as the Tesla CEO attempts to make the social media stay afloat or at least somewhat profitable. 

However, CNN’s Oliver Darcy shared the reporting done by the Washington Post in his “Reliable Sources” newsletter that more than a third of Twitter’s top 100 advertisers have abandoned the platform.

With advertisers exiting, the lack of ad revenue is one of the most significant dangers to Twitter since it accounted for approximately 90 percent of its income last year.

The reporting also reveals that the pausing of ad campaigns is getting under Musk’s skin. The new Twitter owner lashed out at brands again Tuesday for “starving” the company of revenue. 

Musk also strongly suggested he never really created a “content moderation council” due to advertisers who “broke the deal” they allegedly had with him when they began exiting the platform after he “agreed to this condition.”

Last week saw Twitter have another mass exodus of staffers and Tesla CEO Elon Musk spoke with those who are still with the company, reassuring them that his ownership isn’t a “right-wing takeover.”

Furthermore, Musk stated that he doesn’t plan on moving the platform to Texas despite many suggesting he do so since, for him, it would send a wrong message. 

“If we want to move the headquarters to Texas, I think it would play into the idea that Twitter has gone from being left-wing to right-wing, which is not the case,” Musk said (h/t The Verge). “This is not a right-wing takeover of Twitter. It is a moderate-wing takeover of Twitter.”

However, Musk is open to the idea of having dual headquarters, one in San Francisco and another in Texas, but for now, his objective appears to be stabilizing the company after a rocky transition. 

Musk indicated he might be done with slashing employees, telling employees to refer potential staffers for engineering and sales positions.

Blaze TV hosts are reacting to the ongoing controversy involving Twitter. Last week, CBS News said it was halting its activity on the platform amid layoffs and resignations at the company. 

Jeff Fisher joined Pat Gray and Steve Burguiere aka Stu, on the “Glenn Beck Show ” Monday to discuss some of the latest developments involving Twitter including owner Elion Musk banning conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. 

Burguiere said it’s strange to see how left-leaning pundits have demonized Elon Musk following his acquisition of Twitter. 

“This guy should be a liberal icon,” stated Burguiere. “We lose sight of this because he says things about free speech that I guess is exclusively a right-wing issue.” 

Burguiere said that Musk should be able to do anything that he wants with Twitter considering the amount of money he invested to purchase the company. 

“This whole thing that he’s the icon of free speech, I don’t know if that’s true,” added Burguiere. 

Musk announced recently that conspiracy theorist Alex Jones received a permanent ban on Twitter for his involvement in denying that the Sandy Hook massacre took place.

“He (Musk) has been a hard no on Alex no matter what,” said Fisher. 

“He has apologized for it,” Burguiere said. “He’s also been sued for billions of dollars over it.” 

“The thing about Alex Jones is that some of us don’t like what he said,” Gray remarked. “But, who cares, that’s what you call free speech.”
