I wonder how this will go, and what Candace will say on her YouTube channel afterwards.
Will Erika "play the sympathy card" without the cameras rolling? Will she beg Candace to stop and "let her husband RIP" ??

Will Candace be meeting the CEO of TPUSA, or Charlie's wife? I bet Candace has a lot of questions!

Call people including me too suspicious, careful and worried, but similar to the recent “invitation“ to TPUSA, this “private talk with Erika“ could get dangerous for Candace should she decide to do anything like that in person with those people.

I did think but surely they can't be that stupid?? Are they desperate enough? If they threaten her even in an indirect way, she would share it wouldn't she? If I were Candace I'd want to record that conversation. Hopefully she's aware of the dangers.

Is there any amount of type of threat that can make Candace back down?

At this stage (even though I think it is unlikely that they would be that openly deathly) I wouldn’t put it past them to actually try to kill Candace at the Erika meeting if it is in person, for example via long term poison or something, or try to make her go crazy via various means. We are basically dealing with the most powerful, evil and dangerous people in the world here.

Call it what you will, but what Candace is doing can certainly be described to be one of the bravest things I have ever seen from famous/influencial people with lots of reach out there. She seems to be almost the embodiment of “refusing to bend, no matter what“.

Yes, you can ascribe lots of background reasons for making it easier to at least appear that way such as a high level of narcissism, recklessness and/or naivety, but the fact remains that the end result very much appears like that: brave.

Interestingly by now, I would guess that in terms of naivety I think she ranks among the lowest among those with lots of reach out there and not part of political circles. I think Ian Carroll and Jimmy Dore also rank similarly low in naivety while having similar public exposure and background.

Would it be too strange to ask why today it needs a young married woman with 4 toddlers in her basement to do what man should do or would have done in the past?

Where have all the real and brave man gone especially in America/West that you now need a woman in such a situation to do what was perfectly normal and logical for many man to do without thinking about it for ages as a matter of honor and perfectly normal behavior in the past?: Get the woman and children out of danger and do the brave/dangerous things yourself.

Erika goes to Israel. Speculating: there she is caught into a meeting, during which Netanyahu tells her how much of a treat is Candace.

Erika comes back, and she meets Candace in private.

And they'll very definitely try to record her. It's not going to be "private" unless Candace controls the location. Probably she won't be allowed to.

French-American connections in Delaware?

First 30 mins: "The French Connection."

Owens reminds us that "French intelligence" was aware of her upcoming interview with Proussard in late 2024, and that the French company she was recently tipped-off about, Satys, leased the hangar in Delaware to which the Egyptian govt planes regularly arrived, and that Delaware is also where the Macrons' legal representation filed suit against her.

Her timeline of her exposure of (and legal troubles with) the Macrons over this past year, placed within the timeline of the "Egyptian planes tracking the Kirks," is convincing of something, although it's unclear what.

The history of Delaware is different from that of many others. The state is named after an English noble family:

Thomas West, 3rd Baron De La Warr (/ˈdɛləwɛər/ ⓘ DEL-ə-wair; 9 July 1576 – 7 June 1618) was an English colonial administrator for whom the bay, the river, and, consequently, a Native American people and U.S. state, all later called "Delaware", were named.

An important company in Delaware, DuPont, was founded by a French chemist and industrialist

DuPont de Nemours, Inc., commonly shortened to DuPont, is an American multinational chemical company first formed in 1802 by French-American chemist and industrialist Éleuthère Irénée du Pont de Nemours. The company played a major role in the development of the U.S. state of Delaware and first arose as a major supplier of gunpowder. DuPont developed many polymers such as Vespel, neoprene, nylon, Corian, Teflon, Mylar, Kapton, Kevlar, Zemdrain, M5 fiber, Nomex, Tyvek, Sorona, viton, Corfam and Lycra in the 20th century, and its scientists developed many chemicals, most notably Freon (chlorofluorocarbons), for the refrigerant industry. It also developed synthetic pigments and paints including ChromaFlair.

About the founder of the dynasty, there is:

Éleuthère Irénée du Pont de Nemours (/djuːˈpɒnt, ˈdjuːpɒnt/ dew-PONT, DEW-pont, French: [eløtɛʁ iʁene dy pɔ̃ d(ə) nəmuʁ]; 24 June 1771 – 31 October 1834) was a French-American chemist and industrialist who founded the gunpowder manufacturer E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company. His descendants, the du Pont family, have been one of the richest and most prominent American families since the 19th century, with generations of influential businessmen, politicians and philanthropists. In 1807, du Pont was elected a member of the American Philosophical Society in his adopted hometown of Philadelphia.

From the Wiki of the du Pont family

In 1802, Éleuthère Irénée du Pont established a gunpowder mill on the banks of the Brandywine River near Wilmington, Delaware. The location, named Eleutherian Mills, provided all the necessities to operate the mill: a water flow sufficient to power it, available timber (mainly willow trees) that could be turned into charcoal fine enough to use for gunpowder, and close proximity to the Delaware River to allow for shipments of sulfur and saltpeter, the other ingredients used in the manufacture of gunpowder. There were also nearby stone quarries to provide needed building materials.[6]

Over time, the Du Pont company grew into the largest black powder manufacturing firm in the world. The family remained in control of the company up to the 1960s,[7] and family trusts still own a substantial amount of the company's stock. This and other companies run by the du Pont family employed up to 10 percent of Delaware's population at its peak.[8] In the 19th century, the Du Pont family maintained their family wealth by carefully arranged marriages between cousins[9] which, at the time, was the norm for many families.

The family played a large part in politics during the 18th and 19th centuries and assisted in negotiations for the Treaty of Paris and the Louisiana Purchase. Both T. Coleman and Henry A. du Pont served as U.S. senators. Pierre S. du Pont, IV served as Governor of Delaware.

A critical note: The Treaty of Paris took place in 1783, and the Lousiana Purchase was in 1803, so how they helped with the first before they even arrived in the US is not clear. There is still some money left with the family:

As of 2016, the family fortune was estimated at $14.3 billion, spread across more than 3,500 living relatives.

The Du Pont wiki lists connected families. One of them is also French, about the Bayard family, there is:

The Bayard family has been a prominent family of lawyers and politicians throughout American history, primarily from Wilmington, Delaware. Beginning as Federalists, they joined the party of Andrew Jackson and remained leaders of the Democratic Party into the 20th century. Counting Richard Bassett, the father-in-law of James A. Bayard Sr., the family provided six generations of U.S. senators from Delaware, serving from 1789 until 1929.

The Bayards and the du Ponts appear in the Category: American families of French ancestry

The above families also appear in the Category: Families from Delaware. Another of those is the Biden family. Joe Biden moved to Delaware when he was around 10, and later became Senator, representing the state for more than 35 years, followed by being Vice President for eight years. Later, after the first Trump presidency, Biden was, at least officially, President for four years.

What this means is that whether we take it from the French family connection though the du Pont family or the diplomatic lines to the Democrats and the Biden network, Delaware is strong point. While not a village, with a population of just over a million, it is a place where people in power are likely to know each. Besides, it is not far from Washington:

Seems like the meeting with Erika went well

https://twitter.com/x/status/2000737025192829248

Erika and I had an extremely productive 4 1/2 hour meeting that I think we both feel should have taken place a lot earlier than it did. We agreed much more than I had anticipated. Of course, we also disagreed on various points and people as well. Most importantly, we were able to share intel and clarify intent.I will of course have a full rundown for you all tomorrow as I am currently exhausted, but I wanted to quickly let you guys know that absolutely nothing was held back and the immediate result was that tensions were thawed.

From the Wiki of the du Pont family

From: "Engelbrecht, H.C. and F.C. Hanighen, Merchants of Death: A Study of the International Armament Industry, 1934," which is a striking read from the past from all corners of the world, people like Du Pont created staggering wealth as reference during just the years between 1914 - 1918, as seen below.

WHEN the World War began in 1914, the President of the United States advised his fellow countrymen to remain neutral even in thought. When the armistice was signed in 1918, there were 21,000 new American millionaires, Du Pont stock had gone from $20 to $1,000 a share, and J.P. Morgan was said to have made more money in two years than the elder Morgan made in all his life.

What stands out for me is that the Du Pont company/dynasty specialized in making explosives, and got rich selling them to both sides in the US civil war. Delaware was thus, sort of, 'unaligned' while everywhere else around that state got torn apart. Wilmington, the state capital, grew big and rich during the war. From Wiki:

The greatest growth in the city occurred during the Civil War. Delaware, though officially remaining a member of the Union, was a border state and divided in its support of both the Confederate and the Union causes. The war created enormous demand for goods and materials supplied by Wilmington including ships, railroad cars, gunpowder, shoes, and other war-related goods.

By 1868, Wilmington was producing more iron ships than the rest of the country combined and it rated first in the production of gunpowder and second in carriages and leather. Due to the prosperity Wilmington enjoyed during the war, city merchants and manufacturers expanded Wilmington's residential boundaries westward in the form of large homes along tree-lined streets. This movement was spurred by the first horsecar line, which was initiated in 1864 along Delaware Avenue.

What stands out for me is that the Du Pont company/dynasty specialized in making explosives, and got rich selling them to both sides in the US civil war.

Selling to both sides aligned with the French foreign policy of neutrality. In France and the American Civil War there are the pros and the cons:

The Confederacy was supported by the conservative supporters of Napoleon III, Legitimists loyal to the House of Bourbon, and Roman Catholic leaders. The Union had the support of Republicans and Orléanists (those who wanted a descendant of Louis Philippe I and the House of Orléans on the throne). 2

Between 1861 and 1865, the Union blockade cut off Confederate cotton supplies to French textile mills. However France had amassed a large surplus of cotton in 1861, and shortages did not occur until late 1862. By 1863 shortages caused the famine du coton (cotton famine). Mills in Alsace, Nord-Pas-de-Calais, and Normandy saw prices of cotton double by 1862 and were forced to lay off many workers. However there were cotton imports from India and from the Union, and also government-sponsored public works projects to provide jobs for unemployed textile workers. Napoleon was eager to help the Confederacy, but his two foreign ministers were strongly opposed, as were many business interests. They recognized that trade with the Union trumped the need for Confederate cotton. The Union was the chief importer of French silk, wines, watches, pottery, and porcelain, and was an essential provider of wheat and potash to the French economy. As a result, the economic factors weighed in favor of neutrality. 3

If explosives were produced for war (though probably also for mining and engineering) the etymology of de La Warr, also found under Delaware resonates:

The name de La Warr is from Sussex and of Anglo-French origin. It may have come from La Guerre, a Norman lieu-dit. This toponymic could derive from the Latin word ager, from the Breton gwern, or from the Late Latin warectum (fallow). The toponyms Gara, Gaire also appear in old texts cited by Lucien Musset, where the word ga(i)ra means gore. It could also be linked with a patronymic from the Old Norse verr.

To the above, "The name de La Warr is from Sussex" [in Southern England as a contraction of Southern Saxons]: The most southern of three counties in the state of Delaware is Sussex County.

"It may have come from La Guerre" as if it is a mixing of French (de la) and English (war)? The remaining toponymic derivations include words associated with field, a species of tree, with gore and with verr:

"This toponymic could derive from the Latin word ager ..." like field:
Under ager, etymology 1 has:

From Old Danish akær, from Old Norse akr, from Proto-Germanic *akraz, cognate with Swedish åker, English acre, German Acker. The word goes back to Proto-Indo-European *h₂éǵros (“field”), which is also the source of Latin ager, Ancient Greek ἀγρός (agrós), Sanskrit अज्रः (ájraḥ).

Under gwern:

Etymology
From Middle Breton guern, from Old Breton guern, guaern, from Proto-Brythonic *gwern, from Proto-Celtic *wernā (compare Gaulish uerna, Old Irish fern and French vergne).
[...]

"The toponyms Gara, Gaire also appear in old texts cited by Lucien Musset, where the word ga(i)ra means gore."
The Wiki links to gore (road), but Merriam-Webster, or the Collins English Dictionary has more meanings, as does the Wiktionary:

Etymology 1
From Middle English gore, gor, gorre (“mud, muck”), from Old English gor (“manure, dung, filth, muck, dirt”), from Proto-West Germanic *gor, from Proto-Germanic *gurą (“half-digested stomach contents; faeces; manure”), from Proto-Indo-European *gʷʰer- (“hot; warm”).

Cognate to Old Norse gorr, gor (“intestines, (half-digested) intestinal contents, filth, dung; peat, silt-esc earth”).

Etymology 2
From Middle English goren, from gore (“gore”), ultimately from Old English gār (“spear”), from Proto-West Germanic *gaiʀ, from Proto-Germanic *gaizaz, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰoysós. Related to gar and gore (“a projecting point”).

Verb

1. (transitive, of an animal) To pierce with a horn or tusk. Synonym: horn
   The bull gored the matador.
2. (transitive, obsolete) To pierce with anything pointed, such as a spear. Synonyms: jab, run through; see also Thesaurus:stab

From Proto-Norse ᚹᛖᚱᚨᛉ (weraʀ), from Proto-Germanic *weraz, from Proto-Indo-European *wiHrós.
Noun
verr m

1. warrior
2. man, husband

Etymology does often not give a smoking gun, but clues and patterns. When it comes to Delaware, there is something with France, and old powers in Europe. Incidentally du pont translated from French becomes "from/of the bridge", and since the final t is not pronounced in modern French, it sounds somewhat like the English pun. Certainly, it would be wrong to add no pun intended, and also not fair to say that it is, however without a disclaimer of sorts it could land one a court case in Delaware.
