The U.S. conservative political commentor Candace Owens was refused a visa to enter New Zealand for a speaking engagement because she had been banned from another country, immigration officials said Thursday.
News of the ruling came weeks after neighboring Australia also rejected her visa request, citing remarks in which she denied Nazi medical experimentation on Jews in concentration camps during World War II.
Owens is scheduled to speak at a series of events in several Australian cities and in Auckland, New Zealand, in February and March next year. Tickets remain on sale and there is no acknowledgement on the promoter’s website that she has been refused entry to both countries.
Candace? — More like Can’tdace, amirite?
Can the US reject her trip home?
This is a great way to penalize these far-right grifters. Not only are they prevented from making money on their speaking tour, but they are publicly lambasted and restricted in travel, and there’s nothing they can do about it.
Appoint her to the cabinet, you say?
Maybe… but wait, has she tried to rape anyone before?
Other than everyone’s ears?
I don’t know if that qualifies her
It seems to have qualified Vivek.
You know… as a fan of the elder scrolls I am deeply saddened at the namespace clash.
If it’s a requirement, I’m sure she could manage something on the plane ride home.
If she doesn’t have a citizenship in another country it is just this side of not happening that the sates would leave her stateless as the rules currently stand.
New Zealand telling Candace Owens to fuck the fuck off:
Good
Nice let’s go! I was hoping for this!
