Conservative political commentator Candace Owens has triggered worldwide backlash after claiming that several world leaders, including Justin Trudeau, Barack Obama, Emmanuel Macron, and Volodymyr Zelensky, belong to a so-called 'gay elite.'
Her remarks, made across recent broadcasts and social media posts, were condemned as homophobic, defamatory, and conspiratorial by fact-checkers and rights groups. Owens's statements, dismissed by independent verifiers as baseless disinformation, have now escalated into a major international legal battle.
