Daily Wire host Candace Owens tweeted Monday that the New York Times sent her a message asking where she got her ideas that "Ukraine was a corrupt country," adding that such ideas are similar to those "seen from Russian state media." Candace's response was gloriously embarrassing — for the New York Times.

"Received an email from The NYTimes asking for comment regarding me “advancing ideas that Ukraine is a corrupt country”—similar to Russian state TV. I replied informing them that I actually got my ideas from the New York Times, and provided them links to their past articles," Candace wrote.
