Candace Owens pushes theory Charlie Kirk was 'time traveller' who went to 'X-Men school'

In a recent episode of her podcast, Candace Owens said Charlie Kirk told her he was a “time traveler” who was sent to “X-Men school,” and alleged he was monitored since childhood.

Controversial US political commentator Candace Owens claimed in a recent episode of her podcast that the late activist Charlie Kirk told her that he was a “time traveler,” and knew that he would die young.

“It is an absolute fact that Charlie Kirk thought that he was a time traveler. He told me he was a time traveler. Repeatedly,” she claimed.

Owens told listeners that “awareness is the threat,” asserting that unnamed agencies were “in some sort of a panic” as she recounted alleged private conversations with Kirk about his fears and unusual experiences.

Owens also claimed that “the agents that surrounded him throughout his entire life” knew he would die young as well. The alleged agents also, according to Owens, sent Kirk to an “X-Men school” because his mother wouldn't allow them to drug him.

She added that even before reaching substantial levels of fame, Kirk “was required to have security on him at all times,” which she claimed was because he had been “marked since he was a child.”

Owens's claims touch on CIA's 'Project Looking Glass,' and Mandela Effect conspiracy theories

Owens did not provide evidence for the assertions, which she framed within broader conspiracy themes, including an accusation that the “deep state” removed the cornucopia from the Fruit of the Loom brand logo.

Owens’s claims about both Kirk’s assasination and the missing cornucopia are references to the CIA’s “Project Looking Glass,” a conspiracy theory about a secret US military time viewing project linked to the Mandela Effect, a phenomenon where large groups of people share the same false memory.

While Owens cast Kirk’s private remarks as signs of foreknowledge and government interest, she offered no documents, dates, or witnesses to substantiate the claims. Authorities have released case materials related to proceedings surrounding Kirk’s killing, but public records do not support the specific assertions aired on the podcast.

The podcast episode quickly drew attention online, with clips circulating across social media platforms and sparking intense debate among listeners. Supporters of Owens argued that she was simply relaying personal conversations and raising questions about hidden power structures. Critics, however, accused her of promoting unfounded theories without verifiable proof, warning that such narratives can mislead audiences and blur the line between speculation and fact.

Several media analysts noted that Owens has previously leaned into controversial topics that challenge official narratives, often framing them as suppressed truths. This approach, they say, tends to resonate with audiences who already distrust government institutions or mainstream media. At the same time, it places a heavier responsibility on public figures to clarify when claims are personal beliefs rather than established facts.

Experts familiar with conspiracy culture pointed out that references to time travel, secret projects, and altered logos are common elements in modrn internet folklore. These ideas often gain traction because they combine mystery, nostalgia, and fear of unseen control. Without supporting evidence, however, such claims remain within the realm of speculation rather than documented history.

As discussion around the episode continues, the controversy highlights a broader issue in digital media: how easily extraordinary claims can spread and shape public perception. In an era where podcasts and social platforms reach millions, unverified stories can quickly become talking points, even when official records and available evidence do not align with the narrative being presented.
