    Steven Crowder covers every one of Kirk’s “hateful” comments

    Wasn't Steven Crowder the one who said a source from the ATF told him Tyler Robinson's shell casings were engraved with transgender symbols?
  2. https://time.com/7317371/charlie-kirk-show-jd-vance/ J.D. Vance Vows Crackdown on ‘Festering Violence’ From ‘Far Left’ While Hosting Charlie Kirk Show Five days after the killing of conservative influencer Charlie Kirk, Vice President JD Vance hosted a special episode of Kirk’s namesake podcast to join calls for a sweeping government effort to investigate and dismantle left-wing organizations in the country that he says encourage violence. “We are going to go after the NGO network that foments and facilities and engages in violence,” Vance said on The Charlie Kirk Show, referring to non-governmental organizations. Investigators are still learning about what motivated a gunman to shoot and kill Kirk during a college event at Utah Valley University on Wednesday. Utah Governor Spencer Cox said on Sunday that Tyler Robinson, the suspect in custody, was not cooperating with investigators. Political violence has surged in recent years. Trump has been the target of at least two assassination attempts, Democratic politicians have been attacked and killed, and violent rioters beat police officers and stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021 to try to overturn the 2020 election results. Trump and other senior political leaders have used Kirk’s killing to call for a crackdown on specifically left-wing political violence. As his first guest on Kirk’s podcast on Monday, Vance brought on senior Trump advisor Stephen Miller to discuss “all the ways we are trying to figure out how to prevent this festering violence we are seeing on the far left.” Miller said that one of the last messages Charlie Kirk sent him was to say that the Trump administration needs a strategy to go after left-wing organizations promoting violence. “I will write those words on my heart and I will carry them out,” Miller said. Miller said that since Kirk’s killing, he’s feeling sadness and anger. “Unfocused anger or blind rage is not productive,” Miller said. “But focused anger, righteous anger, directed for a just cause is one of the most important agents of change in human history.”
  3. Saying the quiet part out loud: ABC reporter Jonathan Karl questions Trump on hate speech crackdown threat: 'A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech' Trump: 'We'll probably go after people like you, because you treat me so unfairly' Maybe we'll come after ABC'

    Charlie Kirk was just shot

    The Log Cabin Republicans would like a word.
  5. After rewatching the exchange between Trump and Karl, it appears that Trump thinks that criticism of him is "hate speech"
  6. It seems like anything that is not praise is considered a "celebration"

    Texas FURRIES bill seeks to stop 'non-human' behavior 🌈

    AI Overview Internet rumors claiming that schools are providing litter boxes for students identifying as "furries" have been widely debunked as hoaxes . Despite the false premise, Texas State Representative Stan Gerdes introduced a bill in 2025, titled the F.U.R.R.I.E.S. Act, which targets this non-existent issue. Details of the debunked rumor The hoax's origin: The false claim that schools are providing litter boxes to students who identify as animals, or "furries," gained significant traction on social media, particularly among conservatives who used it to criticize public education. No supporting evidence: Rep. Gerdes introduced the bill despite acknowledging that he had no firsthand evidence of litter boxes being provided in schools. News outlets and fact-checkers like Reuters have confirmed there is no evidence of such accommodations in Texas or elsewhere. Contradicted reports: When a school district in Gerdes' own area was mentioned in connection with the rumor, the superintendent personally walked the campus to confirm there were no litter boxes.

    Of course he is. He wants to stifle all dissent against him.

  13. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-strike-second-alleged-venezuela-drug-boat/ Trump announces second U.S. strike against alleged drug boat from Venezuela Washington — President Trump announced Monday the U.S. military has carried out a second strike on alleged Venezuelan "narcoterrorists" in international waters. The president said in a post on Truth Social that the strike killed three "male terrorists" whom he accused of transporting illicit drugs. The post included a video that appeared to show a strike on a boat. He did not specify where the strike took place, except to say it was in the U.S. Southern Command's area of responsibility, which covers the Caribbean Sea and South America. "BE WARNED — IF YOU ARE TRANSPORTING DRUGS THAT CAN KILL AMERICANS, WE ARE HUNTING YOU!" Mr. Trump wrote. The strike took place Monday morning, the president said. The attack came two weeks after the military struck another alleged drug-carrying boat in the Caribbean. The president said 11 people were killed in that strike. The boat appeared to be turning around when it was hit, CBS News has previously reported.
  14. What Karen Attiah said wasn't that bad and she was an opinion writer, for crying out loud. I thought Brian Kilmeade remarks about euthanizing homeless people was a lot worse, but he still has his job (after an apology) https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/15/media/karen-attiah-washington-post-wapo-fired-charlie-kirk-bluesky Washington Post columnist says she was fired over her posts about Charlie Kirk and political violence Longtime Washington Post writer Karen Attiah says she has been fired from the publication’s Opinions department for “speaking out against political violence, racial double standards, and America’s apathy toward guns.” Attiah posted a string of messages about political violence in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination last week. She criticized what she called “empty rhetoric” denouncing violence that hasn’t been matched by actions. One of her posts asserted that “part of what keeps America so violent is the insistence that people perform care, empty goodness and absolution for white men who espouse hatred and violence.” Attiah didn’t reference Kirk by name, but she also said to a commenter that “refusing to tear my clothes and smear ashes on my face in performative mourning for a white man that espoused violence is… not the same as violence.” Attiah wrote in a Monday blog post that “my commentary received thoughtful engagement across platforms, support, and virtually no public backlash.” But her assertion that Kirk “espoused violence” may have been flagged by Post management. Attiah wrote that “the Post accused my measured Bluesky posts of being ‘unacceptable’, ‘gross misconduct’ and of endangering the physical safety of colleagues — charges without evidence, which I reject completely as false.”

    An observation from the Twitters: https://x.com/Fly_Sistah/status/1967573986650497183 If Tyler Robinson had instead killed students at the college, the reaction would have been totally different. Trump may have even said, again "we have to get over it". There certainly would be no flags at half staff like there weren't for Rep Melissa Hortman.
  16. Yes, you did and what you posted has not been confirmed by reputable news sources, so we still don't know for sure Tyler Robinson's motive.
