A white far-right male Trump donor killed Charlie Kirk.
Fleeing a traffic stop is not a reason to kill someone. I mean, fuck. We are a shithole country.
I was unhappy that I even got the reference. I just despise the “I’m so hard done by” crowd so much.
i just sent this email to @ezraklein.bsky.social
Oh honey, I have NO idea. I don’t even know if he’s married. And please, don’t enlighten me.
Are they? I thought only Americans did that.

No. Not uniformly. I don’t believe in hell, the kid is only 22 and obviously has significant psychological problems. Too many fucking guns, that’s what I’m saying.
So that's now an official pivoting strategy. Two days in a row, Trump pivoted to the ballroom construction in response to softball questions about the Kirk murder.
One of history’s most inept segues.
And therefore The Left must pay.
My sister, a kindergarten teacher, had to sit down and walk 18 5-year-olds through a shooter lockdown drill today & is currently navigating the emotional weight of that, but, sure, let's scold people for not mourning the loss of a guy who publicly said their deaths would be an ok trade for his guns.
You know, if there’s one thing I don’t ever regret, it’s my decision to stop patronizing Amazon. Fuck those fuckers.
Kind of unkind to all those nice kids out there, to saddle them with such hideous parents.
So fucking embarrassing. Just cruel and gross.
That’s assuming that the FBI ever catches him, of course.
From me, a list of Trump supporters who killed, or tried to kill, Democrats and opponents of Trump in recent years (since the right are now claiming all the political violence is from the left!) Receipts: zeteo.com/p/charlie-ki...
Glad not to have him here, but putting Kirk over three thousand dead New Yorkers tells you all you ever need to know.
i do not think it can be overstated at this point that we do not know who killed charlie kirk or why they did it.
The right is leveraging a murder to blame Dems. Jesse Watters is convincing Fox viewers the killer was a liberal. Based on what? The chyron says “assassin still on the loose” as he speaks. Trump dropped a video too, blaming the left with zero evidence. The goal is violence. And it’s coordinated.
This somber assessment following the murder of Charlie Kirk would have a lot greater meaning if Spencer Cox hadn’t gleefully signed a law making Utah a “constitutional carry” state in 2021
Karianne Lisonbee, the Utah rep. who said women can control the intake of semen is now praising Charlie Kirk at the Utah state capitol. She is comparing him to Kennedy, Lincoln, & MLK Jr. Less than one month ago, 2 police officers were assasinated in Utah. He DOES NOT deserve to be honored.
Just looked up out of curiosity and turns out I was on Charlie Kirk’s Professor Watchlist. Am I supposed to mourn the person who spent the last six years trying to end my academic career? He wouldn’t mourn my death: he tried to accelerate my death! www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/st...
Quelle fucking surprise.
Gift link "Research has shown... that it’s right-wing ideologies that are far more likely to be behind deadly acts of violence. And other research has shown that most Americans think of extremist violence in inaccurately bipartisan terms." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
3 months ago, Melissa Hortman & her husband were killed in their home by a man who— *While In Disguise As A Cop In Order To Increase His Chances Of Success/Evading Capture*— stalked her *&* another state legislator. Today? Crickets. Charlie Kirk's gonna get his face on a prayer flag in the Oval.
Well, maybe the dude will wear a hoodie into McDonald’s. Or not.
For those praising Charlie Kirk, ask them if they agree with Kirk when he said the Civil Rights Act was a huge mistake, MLK was an awful person, Palestine doesn't exist, women's place is under their husband, and that the white supremacist "replacement theory" is real. I'd love to hear the answers.
This would be it: Jeezus, ain’t never buying nothing’ there again. www.carlacafela.com
I am genuinely confused by all this pageantry. He was not an elected official. I cannot think of another time a regular citizen being killed garnered this response. It’s perverse.
Ignorance really is bliss.
I am definitely American, without other citizenship options, and I am not even a little sad. Except about gun violence, which is a giant bummer.
FFS, Gavin, you STILL haven’t taken this down? Jeezus, fella, you are bumming me out.
Oh crap, the Dodgers, too? Well, now they’re dead to me. I am quickly running out of baseball teams, which makes me sad.
I can only presume that “woman” and “Pakistani-American” were major aspects of that firing. We are a shithole country.
Fuck you, @msnbc.com and fuck you, @cbsnews.com. How ever will I survive without you?
@tinakotek.bsky.social SERIOUSLY? I don’t even know what to say, you groveling jerk. I am not going to acknowledge any fucking honors for that racist, weirdo, white nationalist POS, just because some TOTALLY AT-LARGE dude has good aim.
Vincent Adultangrywhiteman
@msnbc.com I anticipate a sudden straitening of my media environment, given that @cbsnews.com is in the fucking toilet, too, but I don’t plan to give either of you a second more of my time than it takes to change the screen or the channel. You appalling tools. I just could not have more contempt.
The media environment in the US has degraded so quickly. While Dowd's remarks weren't laudatory, they weren't crass or cheap. Compare this with the Fox News anchor suggesting *this morning* that we should murder ("involuntary lethal injection; just kill 'em") people experiencing mental health crises
Worthy of a nice block.
@governor.pa.gov well? What do you have to say, you twat? Seriously, YOU ARE WANTING TO LOWER FLAGS TO HALF-STAFF FOR CHARLIE KIRK???? That racist, misogynistic, white nationalist jerk? SERIOUSLY???
He was a shitposter with rich patrons
@governor.pa.gov are you fucking kidding me?
I might even go buy an American flag so that I can fly it, not at half mast, the rest of the week.
Charlie Kirk really is the gift that keeps on giving.
I tend to agree
So this seems to be nothing, but a Joe Biden stan account. I admire to Biden, mostly, but why you’re now crapping all over Kamala Harris is unclear to me.
“Black women do not have the brain processing power to be taken seriously. You have to go steal a white person’s slot”. -Charlie Kirk
Donald Trump does not care about political violence; he cares about political violence against Republicans and his allies — as he himself made clear through who he listed in his speech. Donald Trump will not work to end political violence, either. He, instead, is already working to exploit it.
Is there any non-TikTok video?
I’m not sure. But I found this: www.foxnews.com/media/charli...
I have to say that I think that it would be a very normal and usual reaction from many men. I am an older woman and in my experience, men don’t like to be wrong.
Me. I said things like that. Fuck you, Donald.
Wait: it wasn’t enough when a day laborer died on the 210 while fleeing on foot from an ICE raid? Or when a farm worker died in Camarillo after falling off a roof where he’d taken refuge? Only *now* is “enough”?
This is pretty fucked up in lots of ways.
No, I don’t, actually. He was awful. I am mourning America, the idea of America.
It's one thing to lament loss of life and decry political violence, but this revisionism is shockingly dishonest and downright offensive to the millions of people Kirk targeted and upon whom he inflicted pain and misery. The man was a liar and a bigot who gladly hurt others to advance himself.
Excellent question. No doubt wondering why NYC wasn’t 100% Dutch descendants. I doubt he’d even have allowed for a few Native Americans in the mix, given his bigotry.
Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.
Yikes.
"I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational." - Charlie Kirk
All those assholes who pretended to be disinformation fighters falling all over themselves to praise one of its worst, most loathing purveyors simply because he was killed as a result of the exact policies he championed
Kash Patel does not have the murderer in custody. I mean …
Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."
Piss off, troll.
No, I don’t, actually. He was awful. I am mourning America, the idea of America.

That “magicman” person is a brand-new account, clearly created to troll over the Kirk killing. I plan to block.
This “magicman” person just created the account, to troll for exactly this purpose. I suggest a block.
I mean, talk about lying and exaggeration.
This account was created today to argue with people about the merit of Charlie Kirk. Should you choose to, you can block it here: bsky.app/profile/magi...
It’s A Misdemeanor Not A Felony!
This explains it better than I can
I don’t condone violence but… Utah Gov Spencer Cox called the shooting of Charlie Kirk a “political assassination” and for anyone who celebrated Kirk’s death to “look in the mirror” Ummm… and any Republican who calls shootings hoaxes, lies about them, celebrated the beating of Paul Pelosi, etc.?
Stolen from another post
Well, and I don’t want them to be. He’s a monster. I don’t always mind an asshole, but I draw the line at monster.
Well, I can clutch my pearls with one hand and type with the other.
Look it's been a hard and weird and scary day. At least we can all come together in absolutely shitting all over the governor of California.
OH FFS. I don’t want to honor his memory, I don’t want anyone to continue his work. I may not condone political violence, but I am not mourning that guy. I imagine you didn’t get your talented comms team to draft a better post, because your sentiment totally sucks.
In a close vote of 51-49, Senate Republicans defeated an effort today by Democrats to insert language into Congress’ annual defense authorization bill that would have forced the public release of case files on the sex trafficking investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. WHAT ARE THEY HIDING??? 😡
Do we know what happened to the roofers?
Glenn Beck’s media outlet The Blaze just gave an interview last month to the person who killed the politicians in Minnesota
“A five time coward” Donald Trump is a weak man who never served his country and is declaring war on an American city? Fuck Donald Trump and arrest the #TrumpNaziGestspo traitors if they invade your community. Thank you Senator for speaking out @baldwin.senate.gov #DV1 #ProudBlue
Pics or it didn’t happen.
Well. It wasn’t “mass.” The killer can aim.
Not enough, I fear.
