There is literally no Western politician alive that I can think of that has incited more hate, bigotry, and violence than Donald Trump.

That so many in our public life, in our 'liberal' media, have just memory-holed 10 years of nonstop incitement and abuse from him is shameful.

Charlie Kirk’s assassination was obviously a hit job and in my opinion it was orchestrated by the right for political gain.

[Common Sense 🇺🇸💙 @commons96055467]

Charlie Kirk’s violent death served two purpose.
1) the Epstein files news went away
2) MAGA declared civil war on liberals.
Who would benefit from all this? Trump
Was it Orchestrated? Possible
Putin style? Looks like it.

@maddenifico Most likely it was ordered from the oval office to distract from Epstein.

Insanely opinionated tweet from a supposedly non-opinion news website.

Also, this "fierce champion of the right to free expression" demanded I be deported and stripped of my citizenship because he didn't like a monologue on Covid that I did on MSNBC.

So much disinformation on this site tonight in the wake of the horrific Kirk murder, with conservatives cynically suggesting that all of the political violence in this country comes from the left.

In fact it’s the opposite. Here are the facts for those with short memories:

The man who targeted and killed Democratic state Rep Melissa Hortman was a Trump supporter.

The man who targeted the home of Dem Governor Josh Shapiro was a Trump supporter.

The men who wanted to hang Mike Pence on Jan 6th were Trump supporters.

The man who targeted and killed the son of Obama-appointed District Judge Esther Salas was a Trump supporter.

The man who tried to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and assaulted her husband was a Trump supporter.

The men who were convicted trying to kidnap Dem Governor Gretchen Whitmer were Trump supporters.

The man who sent pipe bombs to the homes of Obama and Biden was a Trump supporter.

There is no equivalent or even similar list of Obama or Biden supporters who have carried out similar murders, attempted murders, or violent attacks.

It’s incredible how many of our global issues have been caused by three white men in their 70s clinging to power to avoid prison.

I’ll just leave this here…

[Covie @covie_93]

Two months ago a Democratic lawmaker, her husband and their dog was murdered in their home and there was no moment of prayer in Congress, no lowering of flags, a Republican senator openly mocked their death and other Republicans just ignored it.....

Charlie Kirk was a neo Nazi. And I do not feel bad for neo Nazis. He was a victim of his own advocacy for a lack of gun control. He advocated for violence against marginalized people for the advancement of white evangelical Christianity and white supremacy.

[Evan @daviddunn177]

Charlie Kirk is the reason Charlie Kirk got shot.

[Canada Hates Trump @AntiTrumpCanada]

Anyways…..Trump is a pedophile.

[Hadi @HadiNasrallah]

how many children your army shot in the neck?

[Zeo @ZeoVGM]

Things to remember about Charlie Kirk:

- he said it was a mistake to pass the Civil Rights Act in 1964

- he blamed "Jewish money" for ruining American "culture"

- he said gay people are a disease

- he said the 2nd amendment is worth the cost of "some gun deaths"

[A-100 gecs @PinstripeBungle]

can’t believe people are tut tutting “graphic video” dude I’ve been seeing little kids get their limbs shredded into ribbons and burned alive in hospital beds for two years that was nothing

[zellie @zellieimani]

Charlie Kirk isn’t a martyr. He’s a casualty of the violence he incited.

[Sana Saeed @SanaSaeed]

prayers from a man overseeing a military that shoots kids in the neck for fun.

[kaylee @rustedphones]

some of you show more sympathy for a racist being shot than innocent children whew
