Candace Owens has never been known for hiding her views.

In addition to founding Blexit, a movement encouraging people of color to leave the Democratic party, the Republican conservative provocateur openly criticized the Black Lives Matter movement and questioned Harry Styles' manhood when he wore a dress in a Vanity Fair photo shoot.


But the outspoken anti-vaxxer and Trump supporter surprised many this past week, when she made a fairly compelling argument for universal healthcare in a recent Twitter post.

The right-wing podcaster questioned in her Tweet:

"If the vaccines are really about the government trying to save your life—why do life-saving medicines cost so much?"

Owens biggest adversaries were quick to call her out on this utterly surprising argument, with many even going so far as to commend her for promoting healthcare for all.








Owens was quick to respond and confirm that she was firmly opposed to universal healthcare.


In her attempt at damage control, Owens claims.

"I believe medicine should be affordable and believe it would be if it weren't for the Big Pharma racket."
"The argument here is that I'm not buying that our government is suddenly in the business of saving lives."

But once again, people were quick to point out that her attempt at clarification seemed to instead drive home the need for universal healthcare.







A couple of astute Twitter users even pointed out work on Covid-19 vaccines actually began with Donald Trump—whom Owens continues to support—and not President Joe Biden.



This isn't the first time Owens has taken to Twitter to disparage the Covid-19 vaccine and ended up accidentally promoting a liberal viewpoint.

Earlier this month, Owens Tweeted no member of her family would be getting the vaccine, claiming:

"Medical Freedom is an individual right that should NEVER be infringed upon and any person who thinks otherwise has no place in our government."


Followers were quick to point out this Tweet suggested Owens was pro-choice—surprising for someone who once declared Planned Parenthood as "voluntary genocide for Black America."

Owens also clarified this Tweet, criticizing the far-left for twisting her words.

With these two Twitter firestorms happening within weeks of each other, Owens shouldn't be surprised to find her Twitter followers grow with a surge of left-leaning followers, eager to share any further unexpected liberal stances from one of MAGA's top influencers.

Tucker Carlson Slammed After Agreeing With Guest Who Said We 'Should Have Sided With Hitler' In WWII

Former Fox News personality Tucker Carlson sparked backlash online after agreeing with Cornell University organic chemistry professor Dave Collum that Americans are learning World War II history "all wrong" and that the United States "should have sided with" genocidal German Nazi Party leader Adolf Hitler.

Collum likened himself to Darryl Cooper, another Carlson guest who has branded Winston Churchill the “chief villain” of World War II. He went on to invoke General George S. Patton, claiming Patton had voiced the same view. In reality, Patton warned after the war that the U.S. had “fought the wrong enemy,” a reference to his concern about the Soviet Union rather than advocacy for Hitler.

President Donald Trump fired Billy McLaughlin, his director of digital content, shortly after the White House's official TikTok account was inundated with social media users demanding the administration release the Epstein files, which are said to contain detailed lists of some of the late financier, pedophile, and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein's most high-profile clients and enablers.

Trump himself is widely believed to be in the Epstein files and has rejected calls by his followers to release them, admonishing critics of Attorney General Pam Bondi, who recently concluded no such list exists, despite claiming the exact opposite just months ago.
