Whose Pastor Is This? — Rob McCoy Preaches About Candace Owens
At 38:38 · chapter starts 38:10
In the 'Whose Pastor Is This?' segment — a recurring bit on the show — Owens plays a clip of Pastor Rob McCoy, the father of Mikey McCoy and a member of Erika Kirk's faith network, delivering what amounts to an anti-Candace Owens sermon at Encounter Church in Las Vegas. McCoy tells his congregation that Owens 'doesn't have any receipts,' that her reporting is a 'carnal Christian soap opera,' that she makes $800,000 a week [1] — Candace Owens "Pastor Rob McCoy, part of Erika Kirk's faith network and Mikey McCoy's father, used his Sunday sermon at Encounter Church in Las Vegas to c…" 38:10 , and that the Salem witch trials ended because a minister named Increase Mather refused to accept 'spectral evidence' — implying Owens's claims about Charlie Kirk's death are equally baseless. Owens points out that X's own community notes fact-checked the $800,000 figure as false, and that she asked her team: if she were making that much, she'd buy them all Range Rovers. More fundamentally, she cannot understand who attends a church where the Sunday message is a detailed breakdown of a media personality's lawsuit. She says she loves it, though — because it exposes exactly what these megachurch-adjacent pastors are actually doing, which she characterises as protecting the state of Israel and grifting Judeo-Christianity.
Pastor Rob McCoy, part of Erika Kirk's faith network and Mikey McCoy's father, used his Sunday sermon at Encounter Church in Las Vegas to claim Candace Owens makes $800,000 a week and to compare her journalism to the Salem witch trials. Owens notes that even X fact-checked him, and wonders who attends a church where the sermon is about her lawsuits.
Pastor Rob McCoy stated from the pulpit that Candace Owens makes $800,000 a week, a figure Owens flatly denies and says was fact-checked as false even on X.
Tucker Carlson, on the Can't Be Censored podcast, said flatly that Charlie Kirk was murdered — not for his views on transgenderism, but for his evolving stance on Israel. Carlson acknowledged he could be wrong but said he has a duty to say what he sincerely believes is true.
