‘F**k your dead homie’: Hateful leftists clash with TPUSA supporters as Charlie Kirk’s planned tour ends in violence
Violence erupted outside a Turning Point USA event on the UC Berkeley campus as protesters gathered to challenge TPUSA’s presence at the school on the final stop of TPUSA’s tour after Charlie Kirk’s assassination in September.
KTVU reported that protesters clashed on Monday with attendees outside Zellerbach Hall, where the event was scheduled to take place. Comedian Rob Schneider and Christian apologist Frank Turek headlined the event.
Other signs read: ‘Kirk said death penalties should be public, quick, and televised … Congrats Bud!’ and ‘TP belongs in the toilet.’
KTVU’s Crystal Bailey described a “rowdy” crowd outside the venue, noting that there was heightened security as well.
The event sold out the 1,900-seat venue, a UC Berkeley TPUSA chapter representative told KTVU.
Bailey reported that the protests turned violent as protesters and attendees clashed, saying that there was “blood splattered on the ground” as the result of an “altercation.”
In a now-viral video posted Monday night, leftist protesters and students could be heard chanting, “F**k your dead homie,” referring to late conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was publicly assassinated exactly two months ago Monday.
The crowd can be seen holding signs that read, “This machine fights fascism,” “No safe space for fascists,” “Karma’s a b***h,” and “The lion doesn’t concern himself with the opinions of trash.”
Other signs read: “Kirk said death penalties should be public, quick, and televised … Congrats Bud!” and “TP belongs in the toilet.”
A large red sign with two hammer and sickle symbols could be seen with the words “Drown Fascism in a Sea of Resistance.” Underneath the slogan was an apparent reference to a group called the Revolutionary Student Organization. With a portrait of Mao Zedong on the “about” page of its website, the RSU participates in several forms of “direct action.”
In other videos from the event shared by reporter Andy Ngo, activists can be seen shouting incoherently at California Highway Patrol officers and igniting smoke bombs.
TPUSA spokesperson Andrew Kolvet still claimed the event was a success. “Despite Antifa thugs blocking our campus tour stop with tear gas, fireworks, and glass bottles, we had a PACKED HOUSE in the heart of deep-blue UC Berkeley,” he said, according to the New York Post.
KTVU reported that at least four students were arrested in connection with vandalism associated with the event.

Kamala Harris cackles uncontrollably while claiming she defeated Trump’s campaign strategy to bait her
Failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris claims to have outplayed the campaign strategy employed by President Donald Trump in the 2024 election.
Harris made the comments while a guest on the “Storehouse and Friends” podcast hosted by Tamira Chapman. The podcast was published Sunday, but the clip of her comments went viral on social media.
‘I understood the game that was being played. And I made the decision that I wasn’t gonna get played!’
“I was aware of my opponent’s strategy, and I wasn’t about to fall prey or fall into those traps. And part of his strategy and those around him was to try to take me off our game and message,” Harris explained.
“And I wasn’t about to be distracted by those little, those flames that he was trying to throw to get me away from … my highest priority, which was talking to people about the economy and their well-being in terms of their financial well-being,” she added.
“And that’s, I understood the game that was being played,” Harris added. “And I made the decision that I wasn’t gonna get played!”
Harris cackled at her own joke and prompted the other women to similarly cackle.
“Chess, not checkers!” replied one.
“Three-dimensional chess! I’m telling you!” she added.
On the same show, Harris was asked by a co-host if she faced difficulties as a black woman, and she answered by blaming the Democratic Party.
“Often I feel like black women have this tension between, you know, who they are and the mission that they are trying to accomplish. I want to know if you faced any of that tension when you were on your mission, especially considering that your mission was race agnostic and gender agnostic. You were trying to do the work that the country needed,” asked Melissa Butler. “Did you find that you faced tension of that sort?”
“I think the Democratic Party has taken black women for granted,” Harris responded. “There are very specific issues that impact black women in America that should be some of the highest priorities.”

Harris is on a marketing tour for her campaign memoir titled, “107 Days.” The effort has been ruthlessly mocked and ridiculed by many on social media since she announced it in July.
Video of the entire show with Harris can be viewed on the show’s YouTube channel.

‘Clear example of judicial activism’: Judge gives Democrats a boost with congressional map in red state
As Republicans attempt to redraw districts to gain a cushion in their razor-thin majority in Congress ahead of the midterms next year, an unexpected setback in a reliably red state raises the stakes.
A redistricting case in Utah has potentially thrown a wrench in the nationwide redistricting battle.
‘Turns out, she was orchestrating it from the start.’
The AP reported that Judge Dianna Gibson has ordered the Utah congressional districts to be redrawn in conformity with a 2018 ballot initiative known as Proposition 4, which in effect could grant Democrats a seat in the House.
Proposition 4’s map was drawn by the League of Women Voters of Utah and Mormon Women for Ethical Government, the plaintiffs of the redistricting case. That map largely keeps Salt Lake City intact in one district rather than breaking it apart, creating a reliably blue voter base that could flip one of the state’s four congressional seats to the Democrats.
Gibson rejected S.B. 200, a congressional map that was enacted by Republican lawmakers and that maintained four seats, on the grounds that it did not meet the rules against gerrymandering.

Gibson’s decision was reportedly handed down just a few minutes before the clock struck midnight on Monday.
Republican Utah state Rep. Candice Pierucci called the redrawn map a “clear example of judicial activism.”
Pierucci added, “The Judge drove the entire process, set aggressive deadlines and refused an extension for map drawing by the legislature. We moved 104 lawmakers under those deadlines and she herself couldn’t be bothered to issue the decision before a quarter to midnight. We followed her direction every step of the way — turns out, she was orchestrating it from the start.”
All four Utah congressional seats are currently occupied by Republicans, and Republicans currently have a slim majority in the U.S. House, holding 219 seats to Democrats’ 213. Three seats are vacant following two deaths and one resignation.

Jimmy Kimmel’s wife has cut off family members over Trump: ‘We’re not aligned anymore’
The public feud between the president of the United States and late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel led to Kimmel’s wife distancing from pro-Trump family members.
Molly McNearney is a writer on the show and is Kimmel’s wife. She made the comments while a guest on the “We Can Do Hard Things” podcast.
‘It hurts me so much because of the personal relationship I now have where my husband is out there fighting this man.’
McNearney said that she felt family members who supported Trump were a personal insult to her.
“I personalize everything now. When I see these terrible stories every day, I’m immediately mad at certain aunts, uncles, cousins who put him in power. And it’s really hard,” she said.
She also said she had “sympathy” for relatives who are “deliberately being misinformed every day,” but added that “it hurts me so much because of the personal relationship I now have where my husband is out there fighting this man.”
McNearney said she had tried to persuade her relatives against voting for Trump.
“I’ve definitely pulled in closer with the family that I feel more aligned with. And I hate that this has happened,” she said.
“Part of me goes, ‘Don’t let politics get in the way.’ But to me, this isn’t politics. It’s truly values. And we just were not aligned anymore,” she continued.
She added, “To me, them voting for Trump is them not voting for my husband and me and our family.”

She also recalled the moment she and her husband went home to tell their children that Kimmel’s show had been canceled.
“Our daughter immediately burst into tears. And she said, ‘I’ll sell my Labubus,'” McNearney recalled.

MESSING WITH TEXAS: Newsom Eyes 2028, Drops By the Lone Star State
He’s talking 2026, but has his sights set on 2028.
Liberals spew hatred at NFL player for pointing at Trump after touchdown and doing his dance: ‘Yousa hoe a** n***a’
A Detroit Lions football player was assailed online after doing the “Trump dance” at a game Sunday after he scored a touchdown.
The Washington Commanders were playing the Lions at the stadium in Maryland with President Donald Trump in attendance when wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown appeared to point up to him after his touchdown.
‘Amon-Ra St. Brown did the trump dance? F**k his b***h a** too, hope the city turn on his lame a**.’
The receiver then mimed the president’s dance, and two other players joined him in the celebration.
The president later posted a video of St. Brown’s dance on his Truth Social account, where it garnered more than 3,000 ReTruths.
That prompted many to express their hatred and criticism against St. Brown.
“Amon Ra St Brown you are a f**king disgrace,” reads one missive that garnered over 9,000 likes on X.
“Amon-Ra St. Brown did the trump dance? F**k his bitch ass too, hope the city turn on his lame ass @amonra_stbrown Yousa hoe ass n***a, Detroit dont rock with that s**t,” another post reads.
“Hey @amonra_stbrown f**k you, stop supporting an orange racist, sexist, felon currently stopping people from receiving food, illegally arresting with ICE, & holding government hostage. Hear the crowd boo him out of the building? READ THE ROOM, DIPS**T!” another detractor said.
“Doing this to kiss the ass of the man withholding food from 42 million people. How disappointing. How disgraceful,” another account said.
“Lost a lot of respect for @amonra_stbrown today after he acknowledged the pedo in chief. But hey, he makes his millions right? So he forgave to worry about all the people negatively affected by the republican shut down,” said the account for the Montgomery County Warriors Baseball nonprofit.
Others praised St. Brown for ignoring cancel culture.
BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock opined on the incident in a statement to Blaze News.
“Liberals spend all of their time policing the behavior and thoughts of black people. NFL players do not have a problem with Donald Trump or the Republican Party. Black men in general do not have a problem with Donald Trump or the Republican Party. They are forced to pretend they have a problem with Trump to keep peace at home with their wives and mothers and get the financial rewards of the entertainment industry. It’s a charade that needs to stop,” Whitlock said.

St. Brown soon afterward was punched by a Commanders player who was then suspended by the league, leading many to believe that the Trump dance had something to do with the incident.
The Commanders went on to lose that game by a score of 22 to 44.
