Imagine celebrating the death of someone who was nice enough to fly 5,000 miles to debate you.



Wasn't somebody telling me yesterday that it was just a handful of people who would openly celebrate something like this? I think we can lay that shit to rest.

There are actually a lot of people that are willing to openly celebrate it. And if not openly, are certainly more than willing to do it in chats with their friends, family or fantasy football league or whatever. I'd actually say it's actually a pretty decent percentage of Liberals. It is not a small percentage unfortunately.

There are over 350 million people in this country. You can't post enough retards that would be statistically relevant to the population.

Read an article where ATF agents quoted as saying shooter only needed good gun and scope with not much training.
A two hundred yard shot from the prone supported position at a stationary target with a rifle and scope is a pretty easy shot. The shooter was not rushed and could take their time. This could be accomplished by a person with minimal experience.

Hell, it just had to be a basic scope. No special optics are needed at that distance. In fact, that is not that hard of a distance with iron sights under those conditions.

You could literally make ONE MILLION posts here from different retards on Twitter celebrating this and it would amount to 0.29% of the population of this country. Technically, lot of tards, yes, but statistically irrelevant to the vast majority of the nation.

If it were just some random retards, sure. Not that big a deal. But we’re seeing this shit from politicians and educators. People with strong influence on the direction of this country.

There have been some fired educators, but other than some (D) retardism over prayer in the House, I haven't seen anything derogatory about Kirk at the Federal level, at least.

Origin of the Misinformation:
  • Viral Clips on X: Posts from conservative accounts (e.g.,
    @iAnonPatriot, @jackunheard, @Breaking911) shared a ~68-second edited video clip from the Zeteo interview, falsely captioning it as Omar "giggling" or saying Kirk "deserved it" because he "downplayed George Floyd" or "opposed Juneteenth." The full interview shows no such glee or endorsement—Omar is discussing Kirk's history of inflammatory comments (e.g., on race and holidays) to counter narratives portraying him solely as a "civil debater," but she pivots immediately to condemning the violence and expressing sympathy.

  • Fringe Sites: Outlets like Pravda USA amplified this with headlines like "Rep. Ilhan Omar giggles after Charlie Kirk was assassinated," linking it to calls for her censure or deportation. These rely on the same decontextualized footage and ignore her full remarks.

  • No Substantiation: Searches of her X account (@IlhanMN) since September 10 yield only condemnatory posts—no replies, quotes, or threads suggesting approval. Semantic searches for related claims returned only these debunked viral posts, with no credible sources backing the accusation.
This fits a pattern of post-assassination disinformation, where Kirk's critics (like Omar, whom he had targeted with deportation calls) are smeared to fuel partisan outrage. Omar has faced threats before, and this rumor exacerbates that. If you're referencing a specific clip or source, share it for further analysis—professional fact-checkers like Snopes or FactCheck.org may cover it soon as well.
