SAD! WOKE! UNFAIR! RIGGED! Erika Kirk told to pack up the Grift Wagon and vamoose from Phoenix High School campus

Pinnacle High School principal Jeremy Richards sent families a notice Thursday announcing the event would be relocated off school grounds and pushed to after the final bell, saying the visit had the potential to create serious problems for the school day, The Daily Beast reported Friday.

Kirk took the reins at TPUSA following the assassination of her husband, Charlie Kirk, last year, and has since become a prominent figure in right-wing circles — a fact that didn't sit well with many at the north Phoenix campus.

"It’s a little crazy because I would never have expected someone like her to show up at a high school," one senior said. Another told local news the ideology she promotes had no place in a classroom setting and that the school could find far more appropriate guest speakers.

“I think the topics that she talks about are too extremist for a school. I think there are better representatives we can have,” said Francisco Sanchez, also a senior.

Let's hope the idea holds out through other attempts to do the same.

It isn't just the rethug party that wants to indoctrinate.

I reserve assassination for important people. He was not important, so someone killed him.

Kash Patel’s FBI is so corrupt. How can you refuse to turn over DNA evidence in a murder case?

The defense says it unconstitutional to not allow them access to evidence - setting a dangerous precedent. Drunken Kash Patel might not even have the evidence- why wouldn’t he turn it over.

Most believe others were involved as Charlie was running around preaching for the US not to go into Iran - even kept visiting Trump begging him not to go to Iran and telling millions of young Republicans a message different than Trump’s message.

Case is very interesting as tons of citizen detectives are on it. Patel said Tyler texts were on Discord - Discord says not true - The whole case is like this- a mess.

But his ideology and his MO deserve to die a quick death, politically speaking.

Erika should stay away from the schools.

From previously making bad jokes about Muslims to being sympathetic to the Palestinians and the murdered Palestinian children. He started having anti war people like Independent anti war commedian/podcaster Dave Smith debate Republican’s at his rallies. When he started preaching no war in Iran - that was too far. Then we have Erica preaching the totally opposite of what Charlie was preaching- extreme love for Israel.

Until he met with Trump anyway. Shortly after that he was killed.

I wouldn't be surprised if she goes to a high school and the students get really pissed off at her.
