Conservative commentator Candace Owens is under fire for condemning using death to advance a political agenda and pointing to John McCain's funeral - having done the same thing herself days earlier.

Following Saturday's funeral for the late Arizona senator, Owens took to Twitter to decry the 'disgusting' jabs made at the Trump administration when Megan McCain said 'America was always great'.

But Twitter users were quick to point how just 11 days earlier Owens, 29, blamed the death of murdered Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts on Democratic immigration policy.

'This new trend of using funerals and eulogies to deliver political messages is really quite disgusting. Sympathy from death as means to sway public opinion is next level corrupt. Everyone involved should be ashamed of themselves,' she tweeted Saturday.

Political commentator Candace Owens is under fire for her contradictory tweets where she condemned using death towards a political agenda and pointed to John McCain's funeral. Yet days earlier she blamed the death of murdered student Mollie Tibbetts on Democrats

On Saturday following John McCain's funeral she said: 'This new trend of using funerals and eulogies to deliver political messages is really quite disgusting'

She added that there was no need to sprinkle political opinions into eulogy speeches as Meghan McCain did when she said: 'America was always great'

Over it: She dismissed the late senator's funeral as a 'DNC swamp spectacle'

She wrote: 'Leftist propaganda does not work on me ... #McCainMemorial'

'Like "oh this is what this person thought politically when he/she died" or "this is who this person liked or disliked when he/she died" is not an argument. I still support @DonaldTrump. Sorry, it needed to be said,' she added.

She criticized McCain's funeral as a 'DNC swamp spectacle' adding 'I'm not going to feign sympathy. This is nothing more than prime time political grandstanding and I'm over it'.

'Leftist propaganda does not work on me—even when it comes in the form of a lavish funeral. #McCainMemorial,' she added.

But just days earlier Owens blamed Tibbett's death on Democrats, pointing out that her suspected killer, 24-year-old Cristhian Bahena Rivera, is an illegal immigrant from Mexico.





'Mollie Tibbetts was killed by an illegal immigrant. There will be ZERO outrage from Democrats and the spineless celebrities who march to their orders because they need open borders for votes,' Owens tweeted on August 21.

But Twitter users were quick to remind her that just 11 days earlier she blamed the death of Mollie Tibbetts on Democratic immigration policy

In her tweets from the day of Tibbett's remains were found she said: 'Leftists boycotted, screamed, and cried when illegal immigrants were temporarily separated from their parents. What will they do for Mollie Tibbetts?'

'How many more AMERICAN lives is the left willing to sacrifice for elections?' she added.

In another tweet she wrote: 'Leftists boycotted, screamed, and cried when illegal immigrants were temporarily separated from from their parents. What will they do for Mollie Tibbetts? What did they do for Kate Steinle? They will NEVER see their parents again.'

Her contradictory statements have left online critics scratching their heads.

Twitter user Parker Malloy shared pictures of Owen's tweets regarding Mollie Tibbetts and John McCain's funeral side by side with the caption '[blinks]', shedding light on the discrepancy.

'Says the woman who used Mollie Tibbett’s death to do exactly what she says is disgusting. But we all know this. It’s the Trump and @gop way of doing things. Hide hypocrisy behind the fear and anger of your base. Truth will win though. #bluewave,' another Twitter user wrote.

Contradictory: Twitter users pointed out Owen's double standard online

One Twitter user said: 'Says the woman who used Mollie Tibbett's death to do exactly what she says is disgusting'

Comedian Dana Goldberg wrote: 'You mean how the GOP is using Mollie Tibbett's death to fuel racism and sway political opinion?'

Called out: 'Pardon me, but didn't you try to use sympathy from Mollie Tibbett's murder to try and sway public opinion against immigration?' one Twitter user said

Tibbett's cousin joined in the chorus as well saying: 'Stop using my cousin's death as political propaganda. Take her name out of your mouth'

'Pardon me, but didn’t you try to use sympathy from Mollie Tibbett’s murder to try and sway public opinion against immigration? Even when her family intervened and asked you to stop? Shame on you. It’s interesting that a call to act with basic decency is now a "political message",' a critic wrote.

'You mean how the GOP is using Mollie Tibbett’s death to fuel racism and sway political opinion? I agree,' Comedian Dana Goldberg tweeted.

Even Tibbett's cousin joined in the chorus, hitting at Owens for using the student's death towards a political agenda.

'Hey i’m a member of mollie’s family and we are not so f***** small-minded that we generalize a whole population based on some bad individuals. now stop being a f****** snake and using my cousins death as political propaganda. take her name out of your mouth,' Sam Lucas tweeted.

Rob Tibbetts, the father of Mollie Tibbetts (pictured together left), wrote an op-ed for the Des Moines Register calling on politicians to stop using his daughter as a 'pawn' to further an agenda after Donald Trump Jr (right) blamed her murder on immigration policy

Owens isn't the only one to land in hot water for her comments.

On Friday Donald Trump Jr wrote an op-ed for an Iowa newspaper that slammed liberals for downplaying the illegal alien status of Tibbett's alleged killer.

The next day Rob Tibbetts, Mollie's father, wrote his own op-ed, calling on politicians to stop using his daughter as a 'pawn' to further their agenda.

'Please leave us out of your debate. Allow us to grieve in privacy and with dignity. At long last, show some decency. On behalf of my family and Mollie's memory, I'm imploring you to stop,' Rob wrote.

'But do not appropriate Mollie's soul in advancing views she believed were profoundly racist. The act grievously extends the crime that stole Mollie from our family and is, to quote Donald Trump Jr., "heartless" and "despicable,"' he added.

In his op-ed, Don Jr wrote: 'The mask is off and the true radical face of the Democrats has been exposed... they are seemingly more concerned with protecting their radical open-borders agenda than the lives of innocent Americans.'
