“Blackballing people”: Candace Owens revives Kanye West tweet while blasting The Daily Wire over treatment and control

Candace Owens is once again speaking out against The Daily Wire, and this time, she is using an old tweet from Kanye West to make her point. In a new video shared on her personal podcast, Candace Owens said Kanye West was right when he spoke about being “blackballed” years ago. She said his words now match what she claims she faced during and after her time at The Daily Wire.

The comments come as the public split between Candace Owens and The Daily Wire continues to grow. Owens worked with the company for years before leaving, and since then, both sides have traded sharp words online. At the start of her video posted on Wednesday, January 7, Candace Owens made her stance clear. She said the truth about her exit and treatment had stayed hidden for too long, but she was now ready to speak openly about it.

Candace Owens says Kanye West’s old tweet matches her fight with The Daily Wire

In her video, Candace Owens talked about a 2022 tweet from Kanye West, now known as Ye. In that post, Kanye claimed he had been shut out for not agreeing with a certain agenda. Owens focused on that part of the message.




She said, “It was too soon, but boy, oh boy, was he right about blackballing people who are opposed to a specific agenda.”

According to American Jewish Committee, Kanye West’s tweet also included harmful words about Jewish people. Owens did not repeat those lines but said she related to his claim about being pushed out.

Owens said her troubles began after she refused to publicly speak against Kanye West, whom she called her friend. She claimed this happened right after she signed a bigger contract with The Daily Wire. She said that choice later changed how the company treated her.

Candace Owens also spoke about Ben Shapiro and questioned why The Daily Wire recently brought back her old YouTube channel and podcast content.

She said, “They premiered an old trailer from when I was joining The Daily Wire. This was not a mistake. They put a card saying it was shot in 2021, so what are they doing?”

Adding to the criticism, writer Melissa Witte posted on X, formerly Twitter, after The Daily Wire announced plans to relaunch content tied to Owens. She wrote that the move felt personal and unnecessary.

In other recent news, Candace Owens also defended her past comments about Brigitte Macron, the wife of Emmanuel Macron, after a French court convicted several people for online abuse tied to false claims.
