A Disgusting Display of Partisan Hackery
Charlie Kirk was assassinated—a tragic, violent attack that should’ve united Congress around one simple idea: political violence is wrong. Instead, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez treated the House floor like it was her open mic night at a Brooklyn coffee shop. Rather than stand for decency, AOC turned Kirk’s death into an excuse to smear him all over again. This wasn’t leadership—it was a tantrum from a partisan hack who can’t resist the spotlight.
Condemning Violence, But With an Asterisk
AOC opened by condemning Kirk’s assassination—but she just couldn’t stop there. Oh no. She immediately launched into a tirade about segregation, Jim Crow, and “bigotry today,” painting Kirk as some cartoon villain who singlehandedly rolled back civil rights. Newsflash: this wasn’t a debate on his legacy. It was a resolution condemning murder. Only someone as politically obsessed as AOC could turn that into an attack ad.
Wrong On Every Count
Her greatest hits included accusing Kirk of opposing the Civil Rights Act, cheering for Paul Pelosi’s attacker, and blaming Jews for controlling Hollywood. Let’s pause. First, Kirk’s record and speeches don’t line up with her cherry-picked, distorted nonsense. Second, dragging out half-baked “quotes” at a man’s memorial is about as tasteless as it gets. AOC wasn’t speaking truth to power—she was speaking lies to headlines.
Democrats Choose Division Over Decency
Fifty-six Democrats followed AOC’s lead and voted against the resolution. Thirty-eight more couldn’t even be bothered to take a stand, voting “present.” Meanwhile, Hakeem Jeffries gave the world’s most obvious dodge, insisting that “no Democrat condones political violence.” Then why not vote yes? Because in today’s Democratic Party, hating conservatives comes before basic decency.
America Is Watching
Commentators nailed it—this was insensitive, divisive, and completely unnecessary. Instead of lowering the temperature, Democrats turned up the heat. Rep. Maxwell Frost even decided to shout that “fascism is here.” Really? Tell that to people who fled Mussolini’s Italy or Hitler’s Germany. The clownish overreach is not just offensive—it’s political suicide.
Republicans Should Just Get Out of the Way
As one guest pointed out, Republicans don’t even need to fight this battle. Just let Democrats talk. The more they spew this kind of hateful nonsense, the more voters see exactly who they are. Swing districts aren’t going to buy into “AOC vs. Fascism” when the average American just wants safety, stability, and leaders who don’t embarrass themselves on C-SPAN.
AOC’s Gift to the GOP
At the end of the day, AOC handed Republicans a gift. Her tone-deaf rant exposed Democrats as petty, bitter, and incapable of showing grace even in tragedy. Charlie Kirk’s assassination should’ve been a moment to unify against violence. Instead, Democrats reminded everyone that their brand is division. Come 2026, voters won’t forget it.
