Fury as Mike Pence invites Trump activist Candace Owens - who says George Floyd was a 'horrible human being' - to White House for talks on 'how we can move our nation forward'
- Black conservative activist Candace Owens was invited to be part of a discussion with Vice President Mike Pence in Washington Thursday
- Owens has been taking heat since Wednesday for calling George Floyd, the black man who died at the hands of a white cop, a 'horrible human being'
- Owens had pointed to Floyd's drug use and criminal record, saying only black people protest 'for the people in our community who are up to no good'
- She said that officer Derek Chauvin is getting the right amount of condemnation for killing Floyd, but Floyd shouldn't be held up as a 'martyr'
- Owens is frequently in the news for her controversial views; she has described liberals as 'trolls' and called Meghan Markle 'a witch'
Floyd, 46, was
killed when police officer Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for nearly nine
minutes on May 25 in front of fellow Minneapolis cops Thomas Lane, J.A. Kueng
and Tou Thao watched.
