The Anti-Defamation League Called Owens A Day Ago
White supremacist & Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes praises Candace Owens’ vitriolic antisemitism. It’s not surprising, but it sets off alarm bells: When bigots come together to push an antisemitic agenda, it adds fuel to the fire of hatred. https://t.co/tkJdxUNV9k

Just a day before she parted ways with The Daily Wire, the AFL went after Candace Owens after she was praised by white supremacist and Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes, who praised her recent controversial rhetoric.
“White supremacist & Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes praises Candace Owens’ vitriolic antisemitism. It’s not surprising, but it sets off alarm bells: When bigots come together to push an antisemitic agenda, it adds fuel to the fire of hatred,” the Anti-Defamation League wrote on Thursday.
Owens Responds to ADL: ‘My Crime Has Been Against Myself’
I don’t know Nick Fuentes, but you already know that. All I know is that everyone can see what you did to me. Your pattern is well established and the world is starting to take notice. My crime has been to defend myself against your slanderous network. https://t.co/NFdTnZ5Lhm

In response to their tweet, Owens claimed that the organization set up a smear campaign against him and warned that the world was “awake” to their tactics. “I don’t know Nick Fuentes, but you already know that,” he wrote. “All I know is that everyone can see what you did to me. Your pattern is well established and the world is realizing it.”
“My crime was to defend myself against your slanderous network,” he added. While several fans voiced their support for her in the comments, one user asked, “Candace, has anyone on the Daily Wire spoken publicly in your defense? People are with you, but are they rooting for you? You should interview Nick Fuentes btw. He’s smeared on fake premises just like you. Their fight session didn’t work so now they’re lashing out.”
It remains unclear whether Candace Owens plans to interview Nick Fuentes now that she has parted ways with The Daily Wire.
