Yeah, well, Trump believes he has a big dick, and we have testimony to the contrary.

Why don't we wait until we hear from somebody with a better track record for telling the truth?

Seems the kid was a Nick Fuentes supporter.

Fuentes has had a hate on for Kirk for a while for not being "Right enough".

Of course no one will say that they were "wrong" in calling for Democrats/Liberals to be murdered (or raped or what have you), nor for accusing trans people or anyone who is NOT what this kid was.

And Canadians were not excluded from this either.

No matter WHAT you think of her, this kind of shit, ESPECIALLY FROM AN ELECT M-FUCKING-P is against everything Canada should be about.


Because in the end, Scheer and everyone who did this shit proved her comment.

Wow…ok.

Really? Is that what this Fuentes is saying? Like in the post immediately above yours?

What would Charlie Kirk have called for? Violence or conversation & debate? Kirk often argued that dialogue — even with those we profoundly disagree with — was the antidote to extremism. Agree or disagree with his politics, his call for courage and dialogue resonates with particular urgency now.

Scheer and everyone who did what shit? Something like this below?

There comes a point when enough is enough. Manitoba has reached that point. The people of this province deserve better than a government minister posting hateful, vindictive comments about a man who was just assassinated in front of his wife and children. The victim, Charlie Kirk, was a conservative commentator. Whether you agreed with his views or not, he was a human being whose life was stolen in the most brutal way possible. What followed from Nahanni Fontaine, a sitting minister in the NDP government, was not empathy, was not leadership, and was not even decency. It was a disgrace.
Her Instagram reshared a post calling Kirk a racist, xenophobic, transphobic, Islamophobic, sexist, white nationalist mouthpiece who made millions inciting hate. She went on to say she extended “absolutely no empathy” to him, only to his children, before calling for a country opposite to everything Kirk stood for. Think about that. This wasn’t some anonymous online troll spewing vitriol. This was a minister of the Crown in Manitoba, a person paid by taxpayers to represent us, publicly celebrating the death of a man killed for his beliefs.

This is not an isolated mistake. Fontaine has a long history of posting reckless and divisive comments. Not long ago she mocked a person she shared a stage with because of their use of American Sign Language. She has repeatedly lashed out at people online, framing herself as the victim of harassment and bullying while dishing out venom against others. That is hypocrisy defined. I have personally been the target of Fontaine’s online attacks when I sat in the Legislature, and I have seen her demean people who simply disagreed with her. These are not the actions of someone fit to hold public office.

It does not matter what you think of Charlie Kirk or his politics. It is inexcusable to publicly attack him after his murder. A man was assassinated in front of his family for his opinions. That is the reality, and it should shake every one of us to our core. If we have reached the point where elected officials gleefully mock or dismiss the death of political opponents, then we are watching the unravelling of civilization itself. I have seen plenty of disgusting commentary online over the years, but this one, coming from a minister in government, is particularly dangerous.

The importance of free speech cannot be overstated. Free speech is not about protecting words we agree with. It is about protecting the words we despise. It is about ensuring that even those we find offensive have the right to speak without being attacked or killed. When elected officials mock the dead and dismiss their humanity, they undermine that principle and give license to violence. The dangerous idea that “if you don’t think like me, I will cancel you” has already seeped deep into our culture. Now it is bleeding into our politics in ways that threaten to dismantle the very freedoms our democracy depends on.

(Premier Wab Kinew says he will not remove Families Minister Nahanni Fontaine from cabinet following comments she shared on Instagram on the shooting death of U.S. conservative activist Charlie Kirk that have raised eyebrows in Manitoba)

One of the reasons I called this a very sad day for democracy?

People will be afraid to speak their minds. And evil gets it's foothold when good men remain silent.
People are kept divided so they don't talk about who is really keeping them down and to keep them from uniting and taking the Govt back and getting the true value for their labour.

MSNBC’s Matthew Dowd fired over on-air comments about Charlie Kirk

Political analyst Matthew Dowd and conservative activist Charlie Kirk

MSNBC political analyst Matthew Dowd was fired on Wednesday following statements he made in the aftermath of the fatal shooting of conservative activist and TV personality Charlie Kirk, an MSNBC source told The Hollywood Reporter.


Kirk was shot and killed by a single bullet while answering an audience member’s question about gun violence during an outdoor event at Utah Valley University.


While discussing the shooting, MSNBC correspondent Katy Tur asked about “the environment in which a shooting like this happens.”

Dowd responded: “He’s been one of the most divisive, especially divisive younger figures, in this, who’s constantly sort of pushing this hate speech aimed at certain groups. I always go back to hateful thoughts lead to hateful words, which then lead to hateful actions.”

He added: “And I think that is the environment we’re in. You can’t stop with these sorts of awful thoughts you have, and then saying these awful words and not expect awful actions to take place. And that’s the unfortunate environment we’re in.”


Dowd later apologized for his comments in a statement posted to his Bluesky page, writing that his “thoughts & prayers are w/ the family and friends of Charlie Kirk.”

He then referenced his earlier comments.

“I was asked a question on the environment we are in,” Dowd explained.

“I apologize for my tone and words,” he continued. “ Let me be clear, I in no way intended for my comments to blame Kirk for this horrendous attack. Let us all come together and condemn violence of any kind.”


MSNBC’s president, Rebecca Kutler, also released a statement Wednesday condemning the ousted analyst’s remarks.

“During our breaking news coverage of the shooting of Charlie Kirk, Matthew Dowd made comments that were inappropriate, insensitive and unacceptable,” the exec said, via the MSNBC public relations team’s X account.

“We apologize for his statements, as has he,” she added. “There is no place for violence in America, political or otherwise.”



MSNBC and Kirk join other notable names who have condemned Kirk’s shooting.

Stephen Colbert’s usual intro was replaced with a sombre opening as he addressed the killing.

“I am old enough to personally remember the political violence of the 1960s, and I hope it is obvious to everyone in America that political violence does not solve any of our political differences,” he said after sharing his condolences to Kirk’s family and loved ones.



“Political violence only leads to more political violence,” Colbert added. “And I pray with all my heart that this is the aberrant action of a madman and not a sign of things to come.”

Actor and former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger wrote on X: “Politics has become a disease in this country, and it’s deadly.”

He added: “We must find our better angels and walk back from the extremes. If we can’t agree on anything else, we must find agreement that we don’t solve our debates with violence.”
