CANDACE OWENS (HOST): And so I don't understand the purpose of Nick Shirley. I didn't know that there was this huge scandal. I then subsequently found out that people, you know, think he's fed jacketed. I wasn't trying to hit upon that. I just watched the video and had a reaction to how stupid it was that they're trying to sell it. They're not even giving us good psyops anymore.
...
I have family reunions Nick Shirley couldn't infiltrate and survive. That's just the reality. Like, so this whole, like, tough boy, because they don't leave their basement, you sound sheltered. You sound sheltered that you think that because I podcast today, that I didn't live a lot more yesterdays. Way more aggressive yesterdays than you've ever lived in your entire life. That's why I laughed, Nick, because it's so implausible that you did that.
...
He's up here crying about a little remark about favela. Like, okay. It didn't happen. So take that or leave that. He is being pushed upon us for some reason. I don't know what that reason is. By the way, he's now going to Cuba, guys. No connections. He's just going to Cuba. He claims he he went to Cuba. He was almost taken hostage. Man, this is the bravest kid in the entire world.
...
And we all know the CIA is involved in Cuba at this moment. So I don't find the timing of Nick Shirley — I find everything about him to be suspicious. I would say to everyone, look at these videos with some degree of caution. Because that, none of this is natural.
