Candace Owens Alleged Emmanuel Macron's Wife Part of Ancient Jewish Cabal
"It's not just that Brigitte Macron is trans, but it's that like the Macrons are part of this ancient Jewish network going back to the Middle Ages. The Frankists."
About this episode
On this episode of Pod Save America, host Tommy Vietor was joined by Will Sommer, author of The Bulwark's False Flag newsletter, for an extensive examination of the fractured MAGA media ecosystem and the battle for influence in a post-Trump Republican Party. Sommer detailed how figures like Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, and neo-Nazi streamer Nick Fuentes are positioning themselves to shape the future direction of conservative politics, often through increasingly extreme and antisemitic content. The conversation revealed troubling trends including evidence of pay-to-play schemes where major influencers coordinate attacks on brands for corporate clients, the mainstreaming of white nationalist ideology through figures like James Fishback who is rising in Florida polls despite openly racist rhetoric, and former Trump administration officials like Greg Bevino attending neo-Nazi conferences in Europe. Sommer explained how the decline of traditional conservative outlets like The Daily Wire and The Free Press reflects shifting audience preferences away from anti-woke content toward more explicitly hateful and conspiratorial material. The discussion covered the financial incentives driving influencer behavior, the role of platforms like Rumble and Kick in hosting extremist content, and how figures from the manosphere like Andrew Tate and Clavicular are cultivating nihilistic, misogynistic worldviews among young men. Sommer identified Candace Owens as perhaps the most concerning figure due to her crossover appeal to non-political audiences through celebrity gossip content that serves as a gateway to antisemitic conspiracy theories, noting that even liberal Americans are increasingly consuming her material. The episode painted a picture of a right-wing media landscape in flux, with established figures losing relevance as more extreme voices gain traction among younger conservative audiences.
