Candace Owens claims YouTube temporarily suspended her channel because “Zionists” flagged an interview He has also collaborated with rapper Kanye West Last month, he said, “The Jews control the media.”
Owens, Joe Condemned by the Anti-Defamation League As a “political commentator Who has come Adoption and promotion of anti-Semitism Tropes,” was removed from the streaming service on Monday.
“There will be no show today or this week,” Owens wrote on his X account on Monday.
“That's because @YouTube issued me a strike and a one-week suspension for my altercation with Kanye.”
He also said that YouTube had shut down his account, which had 2.4 million followers.
Owens, Joe left the Daily Wire earlier this year after a public spat with Co-founder Ben Shapiro Speaking on Israel and anti-Semitism, Alphabet-owned YouTube said it “removed the interview as 'hate speech' because it was reported extensively by Zionists.”
“His strategy never changes,” Owens said.
She shared a screenshot of an email she received from YouTube, which read: “Additionally, the video Kanye West (ye) x Candace Owens | Candace Ep 42 has been removed from the Candace Owens YouTube channel because it violates our hate speech policies.”
“YouTube doesn't allow content that makes conspiratorial claims that individuals or groups are evil, corrupt, or malicious based on their protected group status,” YouTube said in a message.
The company told Owens that “the video in question claims that Jewish people control the media.”
The interview was conducted on August 7, but YouTube made the decision following a social media campaign in recent weeks to remove Owens from the platform.
Owens wrote on X that anyone who watched his Aug. 7 interview with West, who has changed his legal name to Ye, saw him “calm and full of love — speaking about the world coming together to defeat evil.”
He said the move to cancel his YouTube channel was related to his debate with Rabbi Shmuley Boteach on Piers Morgan's television show last week.
“The world knows why I am being targeted and quite frankly I have never been more confident that I am the right person for this to happen,” Owens wrote on X.
“So far no strikes on my @YouTubeCreators account,” she said, adding: “I've now gotten three content hits in a row in just a few minutes, as well as an email saying I'm now fully demonetized.”
YouTube confirmed Owens' suspension on Tuesday.
“We have suspended channels associated with Candace Owens from the YouTube Partner Program after repeated violations of our policies, including our Advertiser-Friendly Guidelines and Community Guidelines,” YouTube spokesperson Jack Malone said in a statement to The Post.
The company confirmed that Owens will no longer be allowed to monetize YouTube and the site has banned him from uploading content to his channel for a week.
YouTube said Owens' channel repeatedly violated the site's policies and that creators are allowed to reapply for access in 90 days.
Several of Ye's social media accounts have also been suspended due to anti-Semitic comments, including repeated remarks about Jews controlling the entertainment industry, as well as blaming a Jewish doctor for inadequate medical treatment.
Owens has defended Ye as well as other far-right figures who have been accused of making anti-Semitic comments, such as Nick Fuentes.
