Candace says the government"confirmed receipts" of assasination allegations against her. Did the government confirm it was true?
Executive summary
Candace Owens has publicly accused French President Emmanuel Macron and others of ordering and funding an assassination plot against her; Owens says U.S. agencies “confirmed receipt” of her report, but available reporting shows no government has publicly verified the plot itself (see multiple news accounts noting the claims are unverified) [1] [2]. Major outlets and fact-summary pieces report Owens provided no evidence and that French, Israeli and U.S. authorities have not issued public confirmations of the allegation [3] [4].
1. What Owens actually said and to whom
Owens posted on X and made broadcast statements alleging a “high‑ranking” French government official told her Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron “have executed upon and paid for [her] assassination,” and she later amplified details including an alleged $1.5 million payment, involvement of France’s GIGN, an Israeli operative, and payments routed through Club des Cent [5] [1] [6]. She also said she told “people in the Federal government” and later tweeted that “the White House and our counterterrorism agencies have confirmed receipt of what I reported publicly” [2] [1].
2. What “confirmed receipt” means in context and what sources report
Reporting cited in the results repeats Owens’ claim that U.S. entities confirmed receipt of her reporting to them, but independent outlets consistently note that those confirmations — as described by Owens — are different from an official validation that the plot occurred. Journalists and summaries across multiple outlets state Owens has provided no corroborating evidence and that French, Israeli and U.S. authorities had not publicly verified the substance of the allegations [4] [3] [1].
3. No public, independent government corroboration found in available reports
The collected reporting explicitly says there has been no public response from the Élysée Palace, French Interior Ministry, Israeli authorities or U.S. agencies confirming the assassination plot Owens alleges; outlets emphasize the allegations remain unverified and that Owens has not supplied documentation to back them up [6] [4] [7]. Therefore, available sources do not show a government-confirmed finding that the plot was true [3].
4. How outlets characterize Owens’ claims and the surrounding context
Mainstream and niche outlets describe the allegations as explosive but unproven; some conservative outlets and commentators amplify or take Owens at face value, while others mock or strongly question her credibility. Reporting connects the allegations to an ongoing feud and a defamation lawsuit brought by the Macrons over Owens’ prior claims about Brigitte Macron’s gender, which provides motive and context for both the accusations and skepticism [8] [7] [9].
5. Evidence cited by Owens — and how outlets treat it
Owens has said an informant provided proof of their position and that she deemed the information “credible enough to share,” and she alleges details such as training links to France’s Foreign Legion and GIGN involvement [7] [10]. Multiple outlets expressly note she has not publicly produced the documentary proof she referenced, and coverage treats those assertions as unverified allegations rather than independently corroborated facts [4] [3].
6. Competing perspectives and implicit agendas to note
Some conservative media and personalities have expressed belief or urgency about Owens’ claims, while mainstream and fact‑checking outlets frame them as extraordinary, unsubstantiated allegations. The Macrons’ pending defamation suit against Owens is an explicit competing motive: legal pressure gives the couple an interest in rebutting falsehoods, while Owens has motives—political and platform—to publicize dramatic claims [7] [8] [9]. Outlets skeptical of Owens point to a history of conspiracy promotion as context for caution [9].
7. What is and isn’t answered by current reporting
Available reporting uniformly indicates Owens’ public assertion that U.S. agencies “confirmed receipt” of her report, but none of the cited sources documents a government confirmation that the alleged assassination plot actually occurred. If you are asking whether any government has publicly said the plot was true, current coverage does not show such a confirmation [2] [3] [4].
8. Next steps if you want definitive confirmation
To move from allegation to verified fact, independent documentation or an official statement from an investigating authority would be necessary; look for statements from the White House, FBI/DOJ, the Élysée Palace, France’s Interior Ministry, or published investigatory findings. As of the reporting cited here, none of those official confirmations has been published [6] [4].
