Extremist US provocateur Candace Owens’ Australian visa has been cancelled, as the Labor government warns that her attacks on Jewish, Muslim and trans people have the capacity to incite discord.

Ben Shapiro, the co-founder of the Daily Wire, replied to a cryptic tweet from employee Candace Owens on Wednesday evening imploring her to “by all means quit” if she feels her work at the Daily Wire “comes between” her and God — as she seemed to imply. The feud escalated from there as Owens quickly shot back and told Shapiro, “You have been acting unprofessional and emotionally unhinged for weeks now.”
