Author and political commentator Candace Owens is back in news again, this time for taking a dig at former US President Barack Obama, who is planning to host his 60th party in Martha’s Vineyard over the weekend. 

Reports on Monday stated the party will be held at an outdoor location and all the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Prevention public health protocols will be followed. All the guests will be tested for COVID-19 and a COVID safety coordinator will be on the site.

Owens took to Twitter on Tuesday morning to take a dig at Obama for throwing the party amid rising cases in the country. 

“I make a pledge, from here on out, to take the pAnDeMiC as seriously as Barack Obama does. I will only host and attend parties of 700 or less. He and his elite friends are a brave reminder to us all that communism is a dish best served cold,” she tweeted.

Meanwhile, Valerie Jarrett, who served as senior advisor to Obama, took to Twitter to ask people to donate to “help bring the Obama Presidential Center to life in Chicago.”

Responding to the same, Owens said, “He is throwing a party with 700 people on a private beach in Martha’s Vineyard but please peasants, remember to give whatever is left in your savings accounts to his causes and remember— we’re all in this together!”

On Monday, Owens picked at American soccer star Megan Rapinoe, calling her an “anti-American piece of trash who does not represent” the US.

“Not heartbreaking at all. Rapinoe is an anti-American piece of trash who does not represent our country, anywhere, ever.
Any person who disrespects the the flag that sons and daughters are sent home beneath while fighting for our freedoms overseas, deserves to lose,” she tweeted. 

This left social media users fuming, who slammed her for her anti-liberal sentiments.
