Summary

Tim Miller gives his take on how Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson have turned the tragic murder of Charlie Kirk into a carnival of baseless conspiracy theories. From claims about the French Foreign Legion secretly being on the ground, to Egyptian planes following Kirk’s widow, underground trapdoors at Utah Valley University, and even a mysterious “communist bee cult,” Owens and Carlson are amplifying the most absurd ideas imaginable. Meanwhile, the real case is clear: a suspect with motive and confession is in custody, yet these frauds are using tragedy to sow distrust.

Hey, everybody, Tim Mell from the Bullwark here.

0:02.5

Tucker Carlson was on the Theo Vaughn podcast, where he discussed a number of things.

0:08.7

And among them was his belief that potentially there is a conspiracy surrounding the Charlie Kirk murder and how we can't trust any of our governments or institutions.

0:18.6

It was one of the many conspiracies he advanced.

0:20.9

A lot of them related to Israel, I believe he mentioned Israel somewhere around 60 times over

didn't walk back anything but he tried to make it seem like he might be walking back the craziest

0:47.0

parts of what you'd said on theo van show. But more important to that, it's like by going on

0:52.1

Theo von show to advance us, you're sort of getting

0:55.3

these crazy theories outside of even like kind of the mega media ecosystem to this broader

1:01.2

audience. I mean, Theo speaks to like a huge mass audience, mostly of young men, but not entirely,

1:07.9

of people who are like maybe a little political, maybe not.

1:16.9

because he's a compelling speaker in a compelling way,

1:22.2

like making people think that they like can't trust the basic facts about a huge case like this, like his real implications.

1:26.2

And so I want to break it down for everybody and

1:29.0

make it as easy to understand as possible. I want to start here. Today, I'm taping this,

1:33.2

Tyler Robinson is going to make his first public appearance in court. And I think that as this trial
