What was said

"Andrew Colbet said to me a few days after the assassination, it was supposed to be you, verbatim. And I'm thinking, these are my friends, like I went to school— Washington Post that is the top of the line journalism I learned this in school. Like what? I'm so flattered to be able to give this interview."

Days after Charlie Kirk's assassination, Turning Point USA's PR director Andrew Colbert allegedly told Owens 'it was supposed to be you.' Owens initially dismissed this as poorly expressed grief but now questions whether it was a genuine warning. She believes Kirk's death may have been tied to his refusal to support Israel unconditionally and his rejection of a deal with Netanyahu.
