Former President Donald Trump has taken a strong stance against conservative commentator Candace Owens, dubbing her the 'vile person of the year' in a post on Truth Social. This criticism comes amidst claims from far-right activist Laura Loomer, who alleges that Owens has recently traveled to Italy, coinciding with serious legal issues facing the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). On April 21, 2026, a federal grand jury in Alabama indicted the SPLC on multiple counts, including bank fraud and money laundering, which the organization claims are politically motivated. Trump's post included a satirical TIME magazine cover featuring Owens, surrounded by derogatory phrases. His remarks have sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with users commenting on Owens' past statements and the implications of her alleged travel. The ongoing feud illustrates the fractious nature of contemporary conservative politics.
