YOU WON’T FIND THIS ON MAINSTREAM MEDIA OUTLETS.
Shortly after the White House Correspondents’ Dinner (WHCD) shooting, the White House reportedly sent out an internal email regarding Erika Kirk and her infamous “I just want to go home” moment—only to get caught in a desperate scramble to rescind it.
What we know so far:
The “Accidental” Leak: The White House sent a specific email that was never meant for a wide audience, leading to an immediate panic.
Candace confirms the email directly involves Erika Kirk and the viral “I want to go home” drama from the night of the shooting. The White House then attempted to rescind the communication once they realized the “major scoop” was out.
Why is the White House so concerned about Erika Kirk’s reaction to the shooting? What was in that email that caused a total panic in the West Wing?
The main point of the email was to direct the recipients to get that video of Erika Kirk leaving the dinner, crying, saying she just wanted to go home, to every possible media outlet because it was quickly gaining the most organic traffic and they wanted to ensure that trend continued by morning. So, this begs the question as to WHY this was a White House priority only over an hour after the shooting!? What they don’t understand is that it went viral bc people were sharing it, calling out BS. NOT because that particular message was landing in the manner they intended it to land!
