Watch: Rep. Ted Lieu plays a recording of Candace Owens on Adolf Hitler and nationalism, with her saying at the time: 'The problem is that he [Hitler]...had dreams outside of Germany. He wanted to globalize.'
California Congressman Ted Lieu said Candace Owens, a Republican witness at the House Judiciary Committee's hate crimes and white nationalism hearing, had previously sought to"legitimize Adolf Hitler" and played a recording of her remarks.
He then played a recording of remarks Owens made in February, which had sparked uproar when first released. 'When we say nationalism, the first thing people think about, at least in America, is Hitler. He was a national socialist," Owens said in the video. Owens, the communications of Turning Point USA, which has faced allegations of racism, sat tight-lipped as the recording was played. She had previously said her comments had been taken out of context and that Hitler was a"homicidal maniacal globalist."During her witness testimony, Owens, who brought her grandfather to the hearing, spoke about her upbringing and being attacked last year in Philadelphia by members of Antifascist group Antifa.
