The witchhunts intensify

Following the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk this week, educators across the country have found themselves facing swift termination or potential discipline after allegedly sharing opinions on social media about the killing.

At least a dozen faculty and staff, from school board officials to classroom teachers, have been met with fallout over insensitive posts about Kirk’s death. In at least two instances, universities fired staff members entirely for posts deemed inappropriate.

Many other educators have been suspended or are under investigation, and the number is likely to grow as conservative online influencers share screenshots.

At East Tennessee State University, two faculty members have been placed on administrative leave pending further review, school spokesperson Jess Vodden said. Complaints sent to the university included screenshots of Facebook comments, according to copies the school shared with NBC News, that one faculty member allegedly made in response to Kirk’s death, including “you reap what you sow.” Another allegedly wrote, “This isn’t a tragedy. It’s a victory.”

After later adding, “They have given billions of dollars to mental health and the homeless population. A lot of them don't want to take the programs, a lot of them don't want to get the help that is necessary. You can't give them a choice. Either you take the resources that we're going to give you and — or you decide that you are going to be locked up in jail. That's the way it has to be now,” Kilmeade interjected, “Or involuntary lethal injection.”

With Jones agreeing, Kilmeade added, “Or something. Just kill them.”

Undisturbed by the suggestion, Earhardt chimed in with, “Yeah, Brian, why did it have to get to this point?”

5. Yeah, with one side of their mouth

They place sainthood on Charlie for bringing free speech to campuses. On the other side of their mouth they are whisking people into the cornfield for pointing out, Charlie said a lot of racist bigoted shit.

Only the right appears to have free speech.
