The Left Goes Full Mask Off Over The Murder Of Charlie Kirk
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Lefties run to social media, mocking Charlie Kirk for opposing gun control and putting up things like, if only we had gun control.
He fought hard for guns, thoughts and prayers and so forth.
He wanted we wanted gun control to save him, to save his life too, some of them said.
No, you wanted gun control so you could more easily take people like Charlie Kirk, round them up, and put them wherever you wanted.
That's right.
These people want to act sanctimonious, but the fact that they are acting this way shows what their true feelings are.
They wanted Charlie Kirk dead.
And if the Second Amendment wasn't there, they would be acting upon those urges.
They would be screaming at their representatives to round up people like Kirk, round up people like us and you and chat.
The Second Amendment is the only thing stopping these people from acting out on their completely hateful, violent urges.
And their reactions prove it.
Well, we're seeing amazing reactions, as you said yesterday, Travis.
You know, the detestable comments on social media people cheering the fact that Charlie Kirk was killed.
We've had some people now have been fired for that.
And not fired because they're trying to cover up some narrative or something, but fired because they're cheering this horrific, gruesome murder of a young man with a young family.
And here in Tennessee, I had a Tennessee University Assistant Dean who said that Charlie Kirk spoke his fate into existence.
This is Laura Saush Lightse, assistant dean of students at Middle Tennessee State University, posted that on Facebook and said she had zero sympathy.
Now she has zero career, which is fine with me.
I mean, we don't need these kind of deranged, hateful people running the universities.
That's why the universities are the way that they are.
She then subsequently deleted her entire Facebook account, but it was too late.
People had grabbed it.
And Senator Marsha Blackburn, who represents Tennessee, called for her to be fired, say she needs to be fired tomorrow.
And she was.
School officials fired her from their position there.
And then we have Governor Pritzker, who blames Trump after Kirk assassinated, said it's the president's rhetoric that often foments violence.
Now, I find it interesting, and it's one of the reasons why I opened the show with this unprovoked attack on a Venezuelan boat that Trump and everybody in his administration bragged about.
Do you find it interesting that Pritzker would not attack Trump on that, but would attack him on his rhetoric, saying that his rhetoric had led people to react to Charlie Kirk that way, as if speech justified that kind of violence.
That's the mindset of the left.
They're not going to push back against an egregious war crime and violation of the Constitution.
What they'll do is they'll use this to push back against free speech.
I also, sorry to break in, but I am so incredibly sick and tired of this rhetoric of them saying, well, you know, he said hateful things.
And, you know, maybe, you know, when you talk like this, they have spent 10 years demonizing anyone that disagrees with them as hateful, racist Nazis.
And they continually say, you know, you should kill Nazis.
That's what they say.
They say you're a Nazi and that Nazis should be killed.
And therefore, they are co-signing the death of anyone they slap that label onto.
They have pushed this rhetoric.
That's what Trump did.
You're a terrorist, so therefore we can kill you without even showing that you're committed to crime.
So the labels are very important to them.
Yes, you're probably going to get to this a little later, but the guy that worked at DC Comics that was celebrating this and got fired, I saw someone post something about, I think it's a guy that's pretending to be a girl, but this person's Twitter feed is their handle is punching Nazis all day.
That's the only thing these, they're so heavily propagandized that anyone they don't agree with is a Nazi, and punching and violence against Nazis is a good thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What Lance was talking about is a guy that was working for DC Comics and he had just done, completed a series called the Red Hood Series.
The first one had been sold.
And he came out bragging about the fact, and he's a trainee, came out bragging about this.
So DC just canned the whole series and said, any comic book dealers out there, if you've got pre-orders for volume number two and three, those are canceled right now.
But, you know, what we're seeing here, as you point out, it's this idea that if they don't like what you say, they label you as a Nazi.
And if the right doesn't like what you say, they label you as a terrorist, evidently.
So it's the censorship is the issue.
The censorship is hate, which leads to violence on people.
They want to say, however, that speech is hate and speech is violence.
I say the opposite.
I say that the instinct to censor people comes from a position of hate, which can then lead to violence.
And it can be state violence against people as well.
I think they got it exactly backwards.
But I think it's interesting that Pritzker would talk about this because, again, it's all about politics.
It's not about principles, the rule of law anywhere.
And as they point out in Breitbart, meanwhile, there have been 1,152 people shot in Chicago so far this year.
208 of them died.
That's on top of the 2,444 shot and the 610 murdered just last year, along with similar records each year over the last 10 years.
Charlie Kirk himself even warned of the assassination culture that has sprung up on the left, leading to many regular, average, everyday Democrats to say that political violence and murdering your political opponent is a legitimate tactic.
And I think it is inevitable that that kind of mindset is going to come out of a mindset that wants to censor any speech that it hates.
That's what leads to the violence that is there.
He said in April, he said, assassination culture is spreading on the left.
48% of liberals say that it would be at least somewhat justified to murder Elon Musk.
55% said the same thing about Donald Trump.
And of course, all it takes is one to kill you, which is what happened with Charlie Kirk.
Barack Obama condemns the despicable violence after Charlie Kirk was assassinated.
That's the headline from Breitbart.
But the interesting thing is, he says, this kind of despicable violence has no place in our democracy.
But he pretends that he doesn't really know why this happened.
He said, we don't yet know what motivated the person who shot and killed Charlie Kirk.
Oh, we don't.
This is kind of like what you see when you've got somebody with a knife stabbing a dozen people, yelling, Allahu Akbar.
And we say, we don't know what motivated him.
That could have led to this.
That is kind of ridiculous.
Lefties run to social media, mocking Charlie Kirk for opposing gun control and putting up things like, if only we had gun control.
He fought hard for guns, thoughts and prayers, and so forth.
We wanted gun control to save him, to save his life too, some of them say.
No, you wanted gun control so you could more easily take people like Charlie Kirk, round them up, and put them wherever you wanted.
That's right.
These people want to act sanctimonious, but the fact that they are acting this way shows what their true feelings are.
They wanted Charlie Kirk dead.
And if the Second Amendment wasn't there, they would be acting upon those urges.
They would be screaming at their representatives to round up people like Kirk, round up people like us and you and chat.
The Second Amendment is the only thing stopping these people from acting out on their completely hateful, violent urges.
And their reactions prove it.
Another interesting thing here is, you know, which people haven't talked about.
People have talked about, well, the Israeli connection, maybe they would do something.
Well, the Ukrainians, many of them were celebrating online, calling it epic.
As a matter of fact, one user wrote that and said the moment that he was hit by a bullet, another one said, cool, super shot.
First he rooted for Russia and now he is dead.
Well, the reality is, is that he'd been very critical of Zelensky, and justifiably so.
He called him an international welfare queen, and he's exactly right.
An ungrateful, petulant child responsible for a million dead, citing Zelensky's refusal to consider peace deal with Russia and his continuation of a conflict financed by Western money.
And so these Ukrainians are saying, well, he effed around and he found out and wishing him to rest in pieces.
But he once questioned whether or not the Ukrainians would try to kill him because they had a hit list of people who had opposed continuing funding of the Ukrainian war by the U.S. government.
And one person in particular who was not only pushing for the Ukrainian war, but also was a transgender.
The ex-head of the Ukrainian Territorial Defense's English language propaganda vowed to hunt down those he called Kremlin propagandists.
They say she, but it was a guy pretending that he was a woman, adding that a strike against an individual favored by Putin was imminent.
And so Kirk asked in response to that, he said, so are they going to try to murder Steve Bannon or Tucker Carlson or me?
And that was not that long ago.
He said, none of us are Putin puppets or Russian propagandists, but the New York Times calls us that.
Twitter calls us that.
And that person, who, by the way, was a transgender, who is funded by the U.S. Treasury, says, we're going to come murder you.
And so they were getting American government to create money to create a hit list of their political enemies.
And then on Blue Sky, there are a lot of stuff there.
That's their walled garden where the liberals are in their own little enclave and they can feel safe to say whatever they want.
Yeah, an echo chamber of hate.
And again, ironically, Blue Sky threatened to censor the people who want to censor everybody else over this.
38 million users.
According to the platform's cardinal directions, any of the 38 million users who violated the policy to celebrate Kirk's assassination or to promote violence against political activists could have their accounts suspended or removed from Blue Sky.
And they were not the only social media place to do that.
You had Meta, YouTube, Reddit, Discord, all issued statements like that.
X did not, and so you were able to see quite a bit of that on X. Yeah.
And the View actually was civil in this.
That was one of the biggest surprises to me was that the people on the View who are usually so toxic and deranged and uninformed were actually compassionate about this.
Part of you wonders how much of that is just fear.
That someone has pulled the cork on this, that someone has made it so that maybe political commentators are now fair game.
Maybe if we're civil, someone on the right isn't going to accept those terms of engagement.
And I think, thankfully, the right isn't going to, because the right is generally filled with a more Christian, a more moral people.
And I hope they don't.
But we did have some crazy on the right who went up to the house of the Minnesota Speaker of the House and shot her and her husband.
On MSNBC, Matthew Dowd, who had perhaps the most idiotic and vile comments of all right off the bat, has now been fired even by MSNBC.
Out of the bat, he said, he's been one of the most divisive, especially divisive younger figures in this, who's constantly sort of pushing this sort of hate speech or sort of aimed at certain groups.
Hateful thoughts lead to hateful words, which lead to hateful actions.
He said, you can't stop this with all sorts of awful thoughts that you have and so forth.
And so for that, he was fired.
But he was also the one who came out idiotically said, well, we don't know at this point what happened.
Could have been some of his supporters firing off guns in celebration.
We talked about that.
It's like, since when have you ever seen anything like that?
Maybe he saw Yosemite Sam in the audience or something, you know?
Yeah.
Well, he says that people misread his comments.
He apologized for it, but he has now been justfully fired.
MSNBC president Rebecca Cutler said during your breaking news coverage of the shooting of Charlie Kirk, Matthew Dowd made comments that were inappropriate, insensitive, unacceptable.
We apologize for his statements, as has he.
There is no place for violence in America, she said.
And so hastela vista to him.
But Senator Elizabeth Warren and Jen Saki, the former Biden spokesman, suggested that it was due to Charlie Kirk not turning down his rhetoric, which, as we pointed out, we thought was somewhat moderate.
I've never seen Charlie Kirk say anything that I thought was even in the slightest bit extreme.
And on the house floor, you had an interesting telling moment because, you know, after the shooting at the school, Democrats were routinely mocking people who said we'll pray for them.
And even the mother of one of the children who did not die, but her child was shot, and she mocked the whole idea of prayer.
Well, you had Mike Johnson held a moment of silence for Charlie Kirk.
And then when that moment was over, you had Lauren Bobert requested a moment of prayer out loud, not of silence.
And when she said that, she said, silent prayer gets silent results.
I think that, you know, if you are ashamed to mention the name of Christ, don't expect that your prayers are going to be heard.
She said, is there someone who could lead us in a moment of prayer out loud for Charlie and his family?
And then the Democrats had a fit.
And they started shouting on the floor, groaning about that and saying, shut up.
I mean, that's the state of the Democrat Party.
They have made themselves the Antichrist Party.
Really makes you wonder, who else recoils at the name of Jesus?
Yeah.
It really makes you think.
The Common Man.
They created common core to dumb down our children.
They created common past to track and control us.
Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future.
They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
That is what we have in common.
That is what they want to take away.
Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
