Erika Kirk photographed with Netanyahu’s son, Yair? Alleged post viral amid Candace Owens row

An alleged photograph of Erika Kirk, CEO of Turning Point USA, with Yair Netanyahu, the son of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has gained significant attention on social media. The image reportedly originated from a Facebook post made by TPUSA’s Tyler Bowyer on June 13, 2019, showcasing an event with the Arizona Israel Public Affairs Committee.

The photo has surfaced during ongoing discussions regarding conspiracy theories promoted by far-right commentators, including Candace Owens, linking Israel to the death of Charlie Kirk, Erika Kirk’s brother, at a shooting incident on September 10, 2025, in Utah.

So far, no evidence has been provided to substantiate these conspiracy claims. The authenticity of the circulating photo has not been independently verified.

Ongoing Discourse Among Influencers

Erika Kirk has responded publicly to Owens’ claims during a CBS interview, urging for an end to the rumors. In this context, Bari Weiss also called out Owens for allegedly profiting from the controversy surrounding Charlie Kirk’s death. Owens continues to maintain a confrontational stance, recently expressing dissatisfaction with the discourse.
