Candace Owens continues her investigation into Erika Kirk's Romania connections and Turning Point USA associates' proximity to mass shootings
Candace Owens presents the latest episode of her "Bride of Charlie" series, investigating Erika Kirk's background, her ties to Romania, and the military and intelligence-connected network surrounding Turning Point USA.
Summary
Candace Owens continues her ongoing investigative series into Erika Kirk (née Frantzve), widow of the late Charlie Kirk, tracing a network of overlapping connections between Erika's family, Tyler Bowyer, military operations in Romania, and the broader Arizona political ecosystem. Owens presents evidence that Erika attended Cakoopa Middle School in Scottsdale and graduated magna cum laude from Arizona State University with a double major in political science and international relations, after winning the Miss Arizona title. Owens argues that the simultaneous presence of Tyler Bowyer, Erika's cousin Dennis Frantzve (a Marine lieutenant colonel), and Nevada-based military and student personnel in Romania around 2010–2012 is unlikely to be coincidental, particularly given that Erika claims not to remember how she met Tyler Bowyer. A significant additional thread involves Justin Stryfe, the current COO of Turning Point USA, who was present at and speaks on camera about the 2008 Kirkwood, Missouri city hall shooting — adding him to a pattern Owens identifies of Turning Point-adjacent figures who were personally proximate to mass shootings.
Key Takeaways
FULL TRANSCRIPT
Opening update — Erika's middle school confirmed
Candace Owens: Shabbat shalom. Hello, Blake Nef. Question for you if you can get around to answering: Romania. Blake, what goes on in Romania? Why are so many people in this story tied to Romania?
We did send Erika an email on February 24th — eight days ago — asking specifically how many times and for what duration she had visited Romania in the past. We got no response. Well, we did get a response. We got a response from a lawyer saying that she was getting ready for the State of the Union and didn't have time to reply. That was eight days ago. I feel like she's had some time to reply, but she's chosen not to. Her memory does seem to get spotty around this time in her life. She doesn't remember how she met Tyler Bowyer. Alas, we are left to investigate matters on our own.
Welcome back to Bride of Charlie. We have nothing to hide. First and foremost, a quick update right at the top. We were able to determine which middle school Erika went to. It's called Cakoopa Middle School — I think that's how you say it. We received an email tip from someone who informed us that Erika attended Cakoopa Middle School. We have not yet received the yearbooks, but we can at least fill in those blank school years on our timeline from 2000 to 2003. That is a school out in Scottsdale, and we were able to further confirm this because the school once tweeted referring to her as an alumna. They wrote: "Thanks alumni Erika Frantzve for sharing the importance of being an everyday hero. AOPA pride." Another piece of the puzzle has been locked in place.
Romania: historical background and the fall of communism
Now let's jump right back into Romania, because I just need to know what's going on there. It seems like people are having a lot of fun. Who exactly is Tyler Bowyer working with in Parliament in Romania? Why is the Black Sea Rotational Force coming from Reno, Nevada, in particular? That's where the majority were coming from.
I think we should first back up and give you a little Romanian history. We reminded you yesterday that in 1989, when Dr. Jerri Frantzve is itching to get out there, the Berlin Wall came down — and with it, a lot of corruption ran rampant in the east, with people going in there plundering and taking what they wanted. In Romania, that same year — on Christmas Day, I kid you not — on Christmas Day of 1989, the then-president Nicolae Ceaușescu and his wife Elena Ceaușescu were ruthlessly murdered after a show trial.
Just like the Nuremberg trials, if you go back, they were show trials. Nobody was actually trying to figure out guilt and present evidence. It was: you're already guilty, we're just going to shoot you. This was supposed to be the end of communism, and the communist leaders had to go. Nicolae and Elena were quite literally lined up and shot. It was all filmed. I'm not going to show you that shooting, but I am going to show you a historical snippet so you can understand just how absurd the trial was.
The trial is brief and largely for show. It lasts about two hours and takes place without any real possibility for defense or appeal. Ceaușescu himself refuses to recognize the court and calls it illegal. But it doesn't matter. The tribunal finds both him and Elena guilty.
>
The sentence for both is death by firing squad, and the execution will happen immediately. Straight away, Nicolae tries to appeal the decision, but he's denied. Before being led out of the room, Nicolae turns to the guards and says he wants to be executed alongside Elena. They accept.
>
Meanwhile, a soldier returns with rope to tie their hands, but neither Nicolae nor Elena wants to be restrained.
>
Both argue with the soldiers, saying there's no need for it and that they're not going to run. But again, they're denied.
>
They're then led out into the courtyard and placed against a wall of the barracks.
You can fill in the blanks regarding what happens next.
Now, you might be asking why they were executed in this manner. This is how freedom is spread. It's always kind of the same thing, right? We show up, we say we're going to make things better because things are oppressive, and we love a vacuum of power. There's no leadership. We killed Gaddafi. We arrested Nicolás Maduro. And in that vacuum of leadership, the oligarchs move in. They plunder. They steal. They take the oil.
Did you see that headline, by the way — that after Maduro gets arrested, Venezuela ships its first cargo of oil over to Israel for the first time in however many years? Yeah, that's kind of the point. Oil, silver, gold. When a country is collapsed, especially artificially, it becomes the wild west, because at least temporarily there are no rules. Gangsters and banksters can move in, monopolize resources, and establish industries.
We are always told that whatever came before those oligarchs was desperation, sheer evil — much more evil than crony capitalism. Those are our two choices, by the way: you're either going to get communism or crony capitalism. You're going to get debt slavery, or you're going to get a government that has a bunch of power and people that are starving. There's nothing in between. It's the left versus the right false dialectic. I think both options are terrible, and it is an intentional false dialectic where the same people stay in power while getting us screaming at each other.
Anyway, Romania in particular — under communist rule there, Nicolae had banned abortion. He had eliminated private and foreign usury. He even banned gambling, referring to it as a western decadence. On January 1st, 2007, eight years after Elena and Nicolae were shot, Romania officially joined the EU alongside Bulgaria.
The EU, gambling regulation, and the arrival of Tyler Bowyer
If you've ever tried to make sense of what the European Union is, it's basically a bureaucracy that sits on top of another bureaucracy. If you are a citizen of Europe, not only are you subject to your own country's laws, but there is also another body sitting in Brussels that can tell your country what it can or cannot do. It sits above your country's laws. Imagine, for Americans, we elect representatives to go to DC and make and pass laws — and then there is just some outside bureau up in Canada that says, "That's a nice law, but that doesn't work for us because we have our own laws." That's the EU in a nutshell. Unbelievably corrupt. Deals done in back rooms. The same thing everywhere.
In 2009, just two years after Romania joined the EU, the Romanian Parliament passed a law to regulate gambling. They decided you would now need a license to operate a casino — meaning you have to spend a lot of money to get this license. That's crony capitalism: only rich people are going to be able to afford this, so we do these deals and poor people can't get into this industry. In that same order, they criminalized online gambling. What happens next is the EU Commission gets involved and says, "Actually, we want to allow online gambling. We still want online gambling to happen."
Keep in mind: in 2009–2010, the United States announces it is going to put a military base out in Romania. Interesting timing. At the same exact time this gambling monopoly is getting settled in Romania for rich people, America says it is going to officially set up a base. So in 2010, the EU effectively forces the removal of the online gambling restrictions. And we know that in 2010, the Black Sea Rotational Force arrives — and so does Tyler Bowyer. Tyler Bowyer makes his first appearance in Romania at the same time, in 2010.
I will also remind you that in 2010, Lori Frantzve reinstates AZ Tech International. What does it do? We were actually able to finally find a description from Lori. It was up on the Everyday Heroes website. She had a bio that has since been pulled down, but it goes into detail regarding what AZ Tech does. I'm going to read the second paragraph.
It says that Lori, for the past twelve years of her career, has been focused on pioneering research and development on disruptive cyber technologies for applications in relationship to the way humans think and the importance of assessing what happens if type technologies truly address the humanitarian side of the equation. AZ Tech, a science and engineering environment, has been at the pinnacle of creating a hybrid cyber, electrical, mechanical capability to address life sustainability and mitigation strategies in the event there is partial to complete shutdown of power. This has led her and her engineering team to create multiple patents in the predictability and cyber analytic area in support of the Department of Defense, the DOE, and state government relative to sustainability of critical infrastructure protection.
It's just a word pretzel. She's saying a lot of words and keeps throwing "sustainability" in the middle. She's saying: sustainability sustainable functional way to monitor the sustainable functional technologies and working with the Department of Defense to do the supercalifragilistic things. Okay, Lori. I would love to interview her or Erika to deeply understand it. Explain it to me like I'm two.
The Black Sea Rotational Force and Reno, Nevada connections
Let's pick up in 2011. The Black Sea Rotational Force is doing their thing in Constanța. I want to stress how interesting it is to me that the majority of the men are coming from Reno, Nevada — the capital of casino and gambling. Meanwhile, laws are loosening, or rather monopolizing, in Romania. Here is an article which mentions the chosen Marines were sent majority from that area. It tells us that a unit of six Marines from Reno, part of the Black Sea Rotational Force 11, have been training military forces in Eastern Europe — in Bulgaria, Romania, and Macedonia — with both lectures and applied experience in ways to handle situations ranging from riot control to roadside bombs. They're training them in counterinsurgency techniques.
But we're missing one piece of the puzzle. What about the researchers? Well, there always has to be a group of student researchers at the same time. And some arrive also from Reno, Nevada. Check out this article — I cannot make this up. It's dated May 4th, 2011. It says Romania students will give lessons at schools and help teachers. This year's cohort includes two Nevada graduates — Alex Redai and Julie Chris — and two graduate special Nevada students. There's a note clarifying they are not yet formally enrolled in the graduate program, but they're going out there anyway. Jenny Sales just finished her undergraduate degree and Amber Herda is just finishing hers, both from the University of Texas, not yet enrolled in the program. Nevada-Reno students are going out to Romania.
This could all just be a happy coincidence. Unless you've come to the realization that Nevada in particular — Vegas, Reno — working on behalf of Tel Aviv, are actually the people running Washington, DC. We live in a gambling empire. That is what America is controlled by. But I said don't be a conspiracy theorist. Let's just continue to document the facts.
Tyler Bowyer's rise and Erika's arrival at Arizona State University
We're in 2011 and Tyler Bowyer is fresh back from his trip to Romania. He is still a student at Arizona State University. In April of 2011, at the end of his spring semester, he is elected by the Arizona Senate to serve as a student representative to the Arizona Board of Regents. The state senate confirmed ASU undergraduate Tyler Bowyer as the new student regent for the Arizona Board of Regents, beginning a two-year term on July 1st. The Board of Regents, in case you're wondering, is the governing body of Arizona's public university system.
Lo and behold, after he is put into place as the student representative for Arizona State University, Erika Kirk — well, Erika Frantzve — enrolls into Arizona State University for her final year of college. There is just so much synergy here.
Dennis Frantzve — Erika's cousin in Romania
Guess who is a lieutenant colonel Marine at this time over at the Black Sea Rotational Force, helping to rebuild Romania. Erika's cousin. There is a Marine named Dennis Frantzve. He is from Chicago. He was in retirement — a retired reservist — and then he decided to come out of retirement for this. He wanted to go to Constanța and help set things up.
And before he retired, he was actually stationed in Afghanistan for Operation Enduring Freedom — the same exact operation that Lori Frantzve of AZ Tech International wins an award for. I wonder if Lori Frantzve and Dennis Frantzve ran into each other. Dennis Frantzve was even stationed with a Sergeant Bowyer who has since passed away. Were these families connected? I wonder.
Afghanistan, poppy fields, and the opioid crisis
Speaking of Afghanistan, speaking of Reno, speaking of Vegas — do you know the real reason we were out there? 9/11 happens, two weeks later we are in Operation Enduring Freedom. Again, I cannot say this is the real reason, but the troops that came back said they were tasked with guarding poppy fields. We sent our boys out there to guard flowers. And the home of the opioid crisis was Tel Aviv — the Sackler family. I've always wondered how it is that Tel Aviv, which doesn't actually grow any poppy flowers, was able to get enough of those poppy seeds to cause an entire opioid crisis.
What we do know is that it was Captain Curtis Kovett who was stationed in Afghanistan — and that's Andrew Kovett's brother. They sent the military police from Nevada to head up the transportation company from Afghanistan. Curtis Kovett was the commander of the 593rd Nevada National Guard Transportation Company. He commanded Bulgarian soldiers — 260 men — based at Camp Phoenix in Kabul. Curtis Kovett was administratively responsible for directing these soldiers through 100 convoy missions across four months, transporting personnel and supplies through the dangerous environment of Kabul.
And he wasn't the only Kovett there. He was also serving with his first cousin, Robert Kovett — also Andrew's cousin — at the exact same time. Robert Kovett was the commander of the 485th Military Police Company. And if you're wondering why they were commanding Bulgarians and Romanians, it's because everything from Afghanistan was running through Romania and Bulgaria — emphasis on Romania.
Erika's own words about Romania
I know this because Erika did a podcast in 2020 where she was reflecting on her time in Romania in 2012 or 2013, speaking with someone who was stationed there and asking him if the setup was the same from when she was out there.
Erika Kirk: Gosh, I have all the photos of when we were on the base too. How are the Romanian troops? Because you guys share a base with them, don't you?
Guest: We do. Yeah, we had Canadians there for a while too.
Erika Kirk: Wow.
Guest: Yeah, it's a NATO joint base. So there were troops from — mostly America and Romania, but from other places too.
Erika Kirk: Now, is that still kind of like a halfway drop-off point for troops from Afghanistan?
Guest: It is. It is part of that operation.
Erika Kirk: Yeah, because I remember that was going on back then and I was like, gosh, what a bittersweet base for troops that are coming or going.
Candace Owens: So Romania is the halfway drop-off base from Afghanistan. Interesting. Elsewhere in that same interview, Erika reflects upon her distant cousin — meaning Dennis Frantzve — who shows her around the base in Romania when she gets there.
Erika Kirk: The reason why I even went over there is that one of my — on my dad's side, his extended family, like a cousin — he was a part of a beast surf over there. And I went over there in 2013. And when he was over there, we did the same thing — he showed us: these are the orphanages we work with, this is the hospital that we helped rebuild. Amazing, amazing humanitarian things that no one talks about that our troops are doing over there. And anyway, long story short, fell in love — I don't know if you went there — fell in love with the — they call them placement centers — but the Antonio placement center.
Guest: Yes.
Erika Kirk: And these kids are phenomenal and they're precious and they just want to be loved on.
2011–2012 timeline summary
Candace Owens: Erika, there is just so much synergy building. I find myself wondering if the Kovetts, the Frantzves, and the Bowyers may have all run into each other in Romania. Much more likely, of course, that Erika just happened to enroll at Arizona State University for her final year, mere months after Tyler is elected by the Arizona Senate to be the student representative to their Board of Regents, while he was hanging out with models and politicians in Constanța, and Dennis Frantzve was nearby. I'm sure this is all happy coincidence and she just really can't remember how or when she met him. She can't, and she doesn't want to reply.
Our 2011 timeline: Tyler Bowyer is elected to the Board of Regents in April. In May, college students from the University of Nevada Reno — some graduates of the University of Texas — go to Romania. On June 12th, the Black Sea Rotational Force is mentioned as the Marine Force from Reno training countrymen in the Black Sea. Erika's cousin Dennis Frantzve, a retired lieutenant colonel from Chicago, will be there. In September, Erika enrolls at Arizona State University for her final year and — somehow — graduates magna cum laude with a double bachelor of science in political science and international relations. In November, Erika wins the Miss Arizona competition, making her Miss Arizona for 2012. Captain Curtis Kovett is the key commander of Nevada's Army National Guard transportation company running things through Romania.
2012 is her crown year. The first thing she does is help kids — immediately, always, forever. In January, her year as Miss Arizona begins. In February, Everyday Heroes Like You begins what's known as Johnny's Locker Ministry. Let's hear Erika describe it:
Erika Kirk: Today marks a day of renewed hope for all those who have put up a fight for their life. I am blessed and honored to be here today to present to you all the second Johnny's Locker. I first want to give thanks to my inspiration, Johnny Bryant. I've been raised that everything in life happens for a reason and that God has people come into our lives — whether it be for a week, a month, or even just a season — so that they can teach us a life lesson.
Johnny is a young man with steadfast faith and unyielding dreams. He is driven, and through his courage and strong will of heart I am able to bring forth this contribution to you today. Johnny's Locker is an Everyday Heroes Like You program that is targeted towards enhancing the lives of children and teens undergoing life-altering and various emotional hardships that reside in hospitals, shelters, or protective facilities across the country. Our mission is to bring Johnny Bryant's courage to afflicted youth — to serve as a reminder that they are not alone throughout this dramatic time in their life. By taking something from the locker, I want each individual to know that they are also taking with them the love and support of others who care about them, overcoming any obstacle they face in life.
Candace Owens: You get the idea — they're going to fill up the locker and it's going to have gifts for children. In May she graduates magna cum laude from Arizona State University. Per her LinkedIn, she had a double bachelor of science in political science and international relations — she shifted her major at some point. Because she qualifies, Erika competes in the Miss USA pageant on May 30th at the Hollywood Resort and Casino Theater in Las Vegas.
On June 7th, 2012, Erika teams up with Tracy Martin — Tracy says they met backstage and just decided to do some good together. Tracy is making handbags. She's what we refer to as a serial entrepreneur and life coach, a Jane of many trades. Twenty-five dollars is going to be donated to Everyday Heroes for every bag you buy.
In July, Erika is featured in a music video for Emerson Drive, "She's My Kind of Crazy," which went pretty viral. Her boyfriend Tyler Sanford is alongside her — he's also cast in the music video.
Turning Point figures and proximity to shootings
Also in July comes the Aurora, Colorado Batman theater shooting. This is something that interests me, because there were a lot of Turning Point people who were adjacent to shootings — meaning they knew someone, or they happened to be there.
We can see a tweet from the Miss Arizona USA handle — and to be clear, that handle transfers with the title, just like the POTUS handle on X. So this is actually Erika tweeting back at someone saying they're disappointed she hasn't acknowledged the theater shooting in Colorado. Erika replies: "One of my best friends was in the theater. Although my acknowledgement has not been blasted via social media, it has been more on a personal level."
I would like to know who her best friend was who was in that theater. I don't know many people — I don't know any people — who can sit down and say: my husband was assassinated in broad daylight, but also my friend was in the theater during the Batman shooting in Aurora, Colorado. More on that later.
What happens next, in August of 2012, is Everyday Heroes Like You visits the Black Sea Air Support Team in Constanța, Romania. Erika acknowledges this is the year she went there, or at least that's when the project begins. In November, the Romanian Angels project officially begins in partnership with the US Marines. She is working with Colonel Otto Busher — she thanks him on her website. Yes, this is the Colonel Otto Busher who will later be accused of running a brothel and trafficking children.
The other person she thanks is Major General Hugo E. Salazar, formerly from Arizona, who formerly worked in joint task force narcotics — that's 1994. He gets accused of being incredibly corrupt. And when people tell me they're working to stop drugs at the border, I find myself wondering: are you working to stop it, or to facilitate it? It's opposite day. It's a perfect cover — if you say you're fighting drugs like the DARE program, or you're putting together an organization to stop human trafficking, it gives you broad cover so nobody would look at you and ask whether you're actually importing it. I believe this is how the world works.
I find all of this to be remarkably suspicious. The most suspicious element for me is Erika pretending she does not remember how she met Tyler Bowyer, and both of them changing their stories. Tyler Bowyer responded to somebody on X and said he met Erika at the Trump rally. But he had already given a speech at Charlie's memorial and stated that Erika called him and said, "How can I help?" — and then he put her behind Trump. So you had to know her before the rally, if she called you and said "how can I help?" and you then placed her behind Trump. And why was she calling him to say "how can I help?"
Erika told me she knew him through some congressman — she thinks it could have been a senator from Arizona. She thinks, but she's not sure. She would go back and consult her text messages, but she has not done that yet.
Justin Stryfe at the 2008 Kirkwood, Missouri shooting
Now, I have been very clear that I am beginning to ponder all of these mass shootings — whether they are actually military targets, politically guided targets and hits that are eventually blamed on some drugged-out individual or a trans person, constantly engaging us in a left-right dialogue. The left says we need stricter gun laws. The right says guns save lives. Nobody is paying attention to the very real possibility that there is a criminal syndicate that controls both sides and feeds the narrative instantly to newspapers and to their agents throughout the media.
Rob McCoy lost two congregants in the Thousand Oaks shooting at the Borderline Bar in 2018 and subsequently became mayor and very close with the victim's family. And many people in that bar were there because they were having a reunion — they had survived the Vegas shooting of October 2017, which the media swept under the rug very quickly. No details, no real investigation, just lone shooter Steven Paddock.
Rob McCoy also organized the Nashville Covenant School memorial in 2023, because Turning Point happened to be having a pastor's summit down the road when that shooting happened.
Now we can add another Turning Point staff member who was present at a shooting. This one took place in Kirkwood, Missouri, on February 7th, 2008. A man named Charles Thornton — he went by Cookie — went on a shooting rampage at a city council meeting in his hometown. While shooting, he shouted "Shoot the mayor." He killed two police officers and three city officials. He injured a reporter. He shot the mayor twice in the head. The mayor survived that day but died seven months later from complications. Cookie died from two gunshot wounds in a shootout with police and never stood trial.
Who was there? None other than Justin Stryfe, the current COO of Turning Point USA — who became COO seven days before Charlie Kirk's assassination. I have heard from Turning Point employees that Erika pushed for Justin Stryfe — allegedly that she was driving Charlie to give Justin Stryfe more power. I cannot confirm that. That is from Turning Point employees and it's hearsay until I have proof. What we can confirm is that regarding that shooting in Missouri in 2008, Justin Stryfe appears in a news clip and speaks about Cookie. Take a listen.
Sirens wail outside Kirkwood City Hall in Missouri. The building that usually houses mundane civic meetings became the scene of a rampage Thursday night after a gunman stormed the building and opened fire. Two police officers and three city officials were killed. The mayor was critically hurt, and a newspaper reporter was wounded.
Justin Stryfe: Yeah, it's really shocking. When I heard about it, I was just like, "Oh my god."
The shooter was eventually shot and killed by police. It's reported he was Charles "Cookie" Thornton, who had a reputation for disrupting city meetings and making outrageous statements.
Justin Stryfe: I've heard that this guy has come to the council meetings before and complained about tickets and fines that he's gotten from the city, and he's kind of made threats before.
Police say the gunman shot one officer outside the building, then went inside and immediately shot another in the head. He then continued firing, taking aim at city council members. At one point, the city attorney tried to fight off the attacker by throwing chairs.
Justin Stryfe: Everyone knows he's kind of crazy. I mean, I don't think anyone ever thought it would get to this point.
Hours after the shootings, officers from neighboring cities and communities were still arriving to pay respects to the fallen officers. The city of Kirkwood recently made national news after a pizza worker named Michael Develin was arrested in the kidnapping of Shawn Hornbeck and Ben Ownby.
Justin Stryfe: This isn't the town that Kirkwood really is. A family-oriented, very quiet town. And something like this is really going to throw this town into chaos.
Candace Owens: I certainly did not know that he was involved in Kirkwood. Was he working at the city council? Was he living there? How did he know Cookie and what Cookie was upset about? It's interesting to me because I cannot name anyone in my circle who could just rattle off: "Oh, me? Yeah, I was at this one. Oh, and I know this person from this shooting." Is it normal conversation at brunch with the girls? McCoy — Stryfe — "Oh, yeah, I was there." Does that seem normal to you?
I am increasingly amazed by their lack of fortune in life, that they should be so close and able to comment on so many tragedies, including the one that happened on September 10th, in which all of them were obviously very close — the very best friends and closest people to Charlie Kirk.
Never mind the fact that they are quite literally getting community-noted on X right now for making up things Charlie would have said or thought, despite all the evidence to the contrary regarding the Iran war. Could you imagine — you leave this earth and the people who take over the business empire that you built are now trying to make people believe you would have said the opposite and believed the opposite of the things you said while you were alive. It is an act of tremendous moral betrayal. It's completely immoral. I really do not know how they do it, outside of understanding, as journalist Elizabeth Lane posits, that we are dealing with true psychopaths.
Comments from viewers
Candace Owens: Let's get into some of your comments. Miranda writes: "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree." Yeah, not when it comes to Lori. Chel Cray writes: "Candace is literally single-handedly better than the entire FBI, and they know it." Well, where is Kash Patel from? Isn't he from Reno or Las Vegas? He lives in Vegas. So you shouldn't be expecting him to do anything unless his boss tells him he can.
Do Gun Morgan writes: "Erika locked herself up for eight straight months for no reason, but she could not lock herself up for two days after losing her husband. Nothing feels normal with this woman." What a valid point. We know she can lock herself up, but she sure didn't do it after Charlie died. Not at all.
From the comments this episode: "Operation Enduring Freedom. Operation Epic Fury. Operation Erica Fraudspace." Something there. Who are these operations benefiting? How is it possible? I tell Vivian — they're like, "We're the diamond capital of the world." Oh, really? That's weird, because diamonds aren't found here. Where are you getting them from? And then you go to the source countries and there are civil wars and — of course — that is especially where you have these terror groups. These Muslim terrorists, for whatever reason, only want to terrorize in ways that benefit Israel. If you're a Muslim terrorist, we want to hear from you. Why are you doing that? Why are you stealing and robbing and doing things down in Congo to the benefit of Israel? I'm thinking it's because they're directing the wars and the terrorism.
We had a few people email us with potential options as to who the person in the Romanian Parliament was that Tyler was meeting with. We just need to research that and reach out to some people before we guess, but I think we've got it down to two possible modeling agencies. More on that tomorrow.
Pton writes: "It's curious, given all these grassroots companies that Erika Kirk says she began, that one would think anyone who was saved or helped would indignantly come to her defense. Radio silence and crickets." Well, she did have Tracy Martin say that she's been friends with her since Romanian Angels and they met apparently backstage and had a beautiful, lovely friendship. And I asked Tracy Martin when I spoke to her on the phone: "Are you at all concerned that everything she says is a lie? Like just basic facts — she says she didn't have a boyfriend, but you knew her when she had boyfriends. Does that strike you as odd that your friend is lying?" And she was like, "People change." And I was like, "This is not changing. This is lying. She's lying through her teeth and keeps getting caught." And everyone else is just trying to tell us it's okay. People in media are trying to tell us it's okay. This is part of the grieving process — you become a compulsive liar and reverse things your assassinated husband intended for the organization he built.
Pre888 writes: "Afghanistan grows poppies. I remember once watching a video where an Afghan farmer said that their land was leased by the American government for poppies." That is so weird. How did the Sackler family get all of this? Their name was actually etched on Tel Aviv University and then they took it down after the opioid crisis. So they were doing it to benefit Tel Aviv. And all they ever have to do is pay a fine. Oh, everyone's addicted. Everyone's high. We get to pay a fine. This many people died. We get to pay a fine. They're drug traffickers and human traffickers out of Tel Aviv. Tel Aviv runs Vegas, created Vegas. They control DC. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Auta writes: "I lived through it, referring to what happened in Romania. It was a show for sure and I saw the execution almost live." You really get into the history of the Nuremberg trials as well — young boys who had to serve in the military, just lined up and shot, found guilty because they wore their country's uniform. It was a mass Christian slaughter.
P. Bailey writes: "I live here in the Nevada capital." Before I even read the rest, I have to mention there was a war happening in my control room. Ashley is from the West and she says "Ne-VAH-da." I am from Connecticut and I refuse. Me and Chris and Dom — we're from the East. So generally in the chat — do you "ah" it or do you "a" it? Anyway, P. Bailey: "I know a lot of Marines and retired military here. If there's anything specific you'd like me to find out, let me know." I'm going max on this. Find out why some of them are saying Nevada. I mean, I guess there have been a lot of testimonies available on the internet regarding what they were doing. Everybody knows they were guarding poppy fields and everybody knows we got an opioid crisis following that, from the Sackler family. And all they ever have to do is pay a fine.

I hope you do in real life. Continually praying for your safety. Love you so much." I do not have an edgy Asian makeup artist and I really resent that fact. Right now I have Evelyn, and she's Mexican — but she looks a little Asian, she says that herself. So there we go.
Closing thoughts on Iran and tomorrow's episode
Candace Owens: Tucker Carlson is just crushing it. He is one of the few brave ones out there. Also, shout out to Megyn Kelly for taking a moral stance on what is happening right now with Iran. It is not easy. They are receiving a lot of figurative bullets, but the truth is winning. I think truth is winning even if it doesn't look that way right now.
They're selling us all of this like Power Ranger propaganda. "Yeah, we did it! Another bomb dropped! Yeah, obliterated the ships!" Trump is receiving that news all gassed up because they're just treating him now like he's an invalid — he's in his age, going around, and the New York Times is like "Blast off, blast off, he's so great." Just swarming him, telling him how wonderful he is. That's what it feels like. And they think we're six-year-old boys: "Yeah, Power Rangers! This war is going to be over in three minutes. Iran obliterated!" Never mind that it's been around for thousands of years. I digress.
Tomorrow we arrive at almost the end of this series — into how Erika met Charlie. Tyler Bowyer is going to be involved in this, and Lori is doing some interesting stuff. I get the vibe that maybe they all knew each other. We'll see you guys tomorrow.
