Candace Owens fires back at Blake Neff after Erika Kirk’s Idaho event sparks ‘dishonesty’ row: ‘students were forced’
Candace Owens and TPUSA disagree over whether Erika Kirk’s Idaho school appearance was voluntary or effectively mandatory.
A controversy erupted between conservative commentator Candace Owens and Turning Point USA (TPUSA) over an event at Nampa Christian School in Idaho featuring speaker Erika Kirk. Owens questioned the voluntariness of student attendance and alleged the event was held as a "secret" school assembly, while TPUSA spokesperson Andrew Kolvet disputed her characterization and said students had the option to opt out.
TPUSA describes Club America as a high-school student movement and has plans for a nationwide university tour featuring Kirk. The disagreement between Owens and Kolvet has sparked debate on school outreach, student choice and parental communication.
