Candace Owens has launched a blistering attack on Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner over their controversial luxury resort project in Albania. During a fiery podcast segment, Owens mocked Ivanka's description of the development as a spiritual journey and accused the Trump family of profiting while ignoring public concerns.
Project Sparks Protests
The proposed $1.4 billion project on Sazan Island has sparked protests in Albania, with critics raising environmental and cultural concerns. Owens also linked her criticism to broader geopolitical controversies, intensifying her growing public feud with Donald Trump and his inner circle as backlash surrounding the project continues to build.
Owens' Criticism
Owens did not hold back in her podcast, targeting Ivanka's portrayal of the resort as a spiritual endeavor. She accused the Trump family of prioritizing profits over the well-being of local communities and the environment. The criticism adds to the mounting pressure on Ivanka and Kushner as they face scrutiny over their business dealings abroad.
Broader Feud
The attack is part of an ongoing feud between Owens and the Trump family. Owens has been a vocal critic of Donald Trump and his allies, often using her platform to highlight what she sees as hypocrisy and corruption. The Albania project has become a flashpoint for these tensions, with Owens seizing the opportunity to amplify her accusations.
Environmental and Cultural Concerns
Protesters in Albania have raised alarms about the potential environmental damage to Sazan Island, a pristine location with unique biodiversity. Cultural heritage groups have also expressed concerns that the development could harm historical sites. The project's approval process has been criticized for lacking transparency and public consultation.
Geopolitical Implications
Owens linked her criticism to broader geopolitical issues, suggesting that the project could have implications beyond Albania. She argued that the Trump family's involvement in foreign business ventures raises questions about conflicts of interest and national security, especially given Jared Kushner's previous role as a senior advisor to the president.
The backlash against the resort continues to grow, with Owens' remarks adding fuel to the fire. As the project moves forward, it remains to be seen how Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner will respond to the mounting criticism.
