The Democrats’ True Face Revealed (Again)
By Mike Robertson
In the wake of the horrific assassination of conservative firebrand Charlie Kirk on September 10, 2025, at Utah Valley University, one might have expected America’s legacy media and Democrat-leaning outlets to rally around basic human decency. After all, this was a brutal act of political violence against a prominent voice for freedom, family values, and American exceptionalism. President Trump himself called it a “national tragedy,” and even some on the left issued tepid condemnations. But oh, how quickly that facade crumbled!
What we witnessed instead was a demonstration of insensitivity, subtle approvals, outright laughter, and conspiracy-mongering that exposed (again) the deep rot in the Democrat party. From MSNBC’s victim-blaming rants, to BBC reporters chuckling on air, the response was nothing short of shameful—a stark reminder of why trust in mainstream media has plummeted to historic lows. As the manhunt for the killer unfolds, let’s dismantle this hoax of “balanced” coverage with the cold, hard facts of their most egregious moments.
MSNBC’s Matthew Dowd blames the victim for his own murder right out of the gate.
MSNBC analyst Matthew Dowd (now fired) couldn’t resist twisting the knife. During breaking news coverage, he smugly declared that Kirk’s “hateful words” had inevitably led to “hateful actions,” implying the conservative activist had it coming for daring to speak out against the radical left’s agenda. This wasn’t analysis; it was outright victim-blaming, the kind of rhetoric that paints patriots as provocateurs deserving of violence. How low can they go? Dowd’s comments weren’t just insensitive—they were a green light for more political terror, all while the network pretended to mourn. Dowd even suggested that Kirk had been shot by a supporter, “firing his gun off in celebration.” What a despicable way to divert from the obvious.
Katy Tur endorses the “had it coming” narrative on live TV.
If Dowd were the instigator, MSNBC’s Katy Tur was the enabler. She not only allowed but engaged with the notion that Kirk had it coming due to his “hateful words” and “divisive” persona, framing the assassination as some karmic consequence of his bold conservatism. In a moment that should have been about unity, Tur turned it into a partisan hit job, nodding along as if political murder was just another debate point. This isn’t reporting, it’s advocacy for violence against anyone who challenges the woke establishment. Americans deserve better than this bile from so-called public servants in the media.
MSNBC’s broader disgusting portrayal of Kirk as deserving his fate.
MSNBC didn’t stop at individual comments: their entire midafternoon block was slammed for portraying Kirk as a “divisive” figure whose death was somehow less tragic than it should be. Anchors hammered home his “provocative” history—code for “he dared to fight back against Democrat extremism”—over any genuine sympathy. This wasn’t subtle; it was a disgusting undercurrent of approval, suggesting that eliminating such a thorn in their side was almost a public service. In the face of a national tragedy, MSNBC chose schadenfreude over sorrow, proving once again why they’re the fake news poster child.
CNN calls Kirk’s political assassination a “school shooting.”
Over at CNN, the madness continued.
Why focus on the deranged assassin when you can pivot to making this an agenda talking point? A “school shooting” doesn’t actually tell the story of what happened at all. This conspiracy of the mind ignores the left’s history of inflammatory rhetoric and increasingly brazen violence. CNN’s coverage wasn’t neutral—it was a disgraceful justification for silencing conservative voices, one bullet at a time.
BBC reporter’s on-air laughter while announcing the assassination, saying Kirk “wasn’t admired and loved by all.”
Across the pond, the BBC—supposedly the gold standard of impartiality—delivered a jaw-dropping low. A reporter was caught laughing on live TV while describing the chaotic scene of Kirk’s death, her tone dripping with mockery as if the whole thing was some ironic punchline.
This wasn't a slip; it was gleeful indifference to a man’s life snuffed out for his beliefs. The clip went viral, rightfully so, exposing how even international outlets view conservative assassinations as entertainment. What kind of “news” organization finds humor in political murder? The BBC’s response? Crickets, of course.
Jezebel’s pre-assassination “curse” article as indirect endorsement.
In a chilling prelude, left-leaning outlet Jezebel (the remnants of Gawker’s toxic legacy) published a piece just two days before the shooting about paying Etsy witches to “curse” Kirk. Post-assassination, they slapped on an edited condemnation note, though declined to remove the essay from their site, but the damage was done—it was a blatant endorsement of violent fantasies against a conservative leader. This wasn’t satire; it was incitement, wrapped in feminist faux-empowerment. How many more “curses” from these outlets will it take before we recognize them as accessories to the radical left’s war on dissent?
These instances aren’t isolated slips; they’re a pattern of media malfeasance that reveals the Democrat outlets’ true allegiance—not to truth or unity, but to the suppression of anyone who dares challenge their power. While President Trump and true conservatives mourned Kirk as a hero, the legacy media laughed, blamed, and conspired their way through the coverage, costing America not just in trust, but in the soul of our discourse. It’s time for real accountability: defund these biased behemoths, support independent voices, and ensure that no more patriots pay the ultimate price for speaking out. The 2024 election showed us the way—let’s not forget the lessons amid this tragedy. Do it for Charlie.

Today marks the three hundred and thirtieth birthday of the Frenchman François-Marie Arouet, better known by his nom de plume, Voltaire (1694-1778).
Born into a bourgeois family during the reign of Louis XIV, the “Sun King” (r. 1643-1715), Voltaire suffered tragedy at a young age when his mother died. Never close with his father or brother, Voltaire exhibited a rebellious attitude toward authority from his youth. His brilliant mind was fostered in the care of the Society of Jesus, who introduced him to the joys of literature and theater. Despite his later criticisms against the Church, Voltaire, throughout his life, fondly recalled his dedicated Jesuit teachers.
Although he spent time as a civil servant in the French embassy to the Hague, Voltaire’s main love was writing—an endeavor where he excelled in various genres, including poetry, which led to his appointment as the royal court poet for King Louis XV. Widely recognized as one of the greatest French writers, and even hyperbolically referred to by ...

The Proud Minister
One day there came into the Garden a man in torn clothes badly bruised and cut, who said to the Lover, “In the name of the Beloved I demand your help.”
So the Lover and the Disciple let him in and dressed his wounds and prepared the best of the vegetables from the Garden for him to eat. When his wounds had been dressed and he had eaten and rested the Lover asked him how he had fallen into this plight, to which the man replied, “I was Minister of the Beloved in a city near this place, where I preached His gospel and expounded His doctrine to the people. I pointed out to them how their sins had made them wholly hateful to the Beloved and how therefore they were utterly beyond the range of His love and He would condemn them to eternal torments, whereon some fell into despair and wept bitterly but many were angry. One day the magistrates called me before them and begged me to leave the city and preach elsewhere for they said I had made many people so angry and desperate that they feared there might be a riot and they might not be able to protect me but that I might suffer some injury. I, however, very zealous for the Beloved and believing that the magistrates only feared that their own sins might be proclaimed, preached the more vehemently, denounced the magistrates and made it abundantly clear that the whole wicked city was foredoomed to eternal punishment by the just provision of the Beloved. Whereon a mob, stirred up no doubt by the corrupt and venal magistrates, fell upon me with sticks and stones, nearly killing me and driving me out of the city in the state in which I came to you.”
“My friend,” said the Lover, “this was not a good deed of yours, for besides denying the unfathomable compassion of the Beloved, you have by your obstinacy caused these people to commit a grievous sin, and this cannot be pleasing to the Beloved, that through you who profess to be His minister the people should become worse. Surely you remember that He Himself said, ‘If they persecute you in one city flee to another.’”
Therefore the man was very angry, and cursing the Lover, said, “I see that I have had a very false report of you and I do not believe that you are a servant of the Beloved at all. When I came to you so injured for the Beloved’s sake you set before me only herbs and fruits although the garden is full of birds which you could have killed to make me a worthy meal. I shall proclaim everywhere that you are no true servant of the Beloved but a mere falterer who dares not suffer in the cause of the Beloved. Be sure that you are foreordained to eternal torments who suffer nothing here.”
For the man was so blinded by his own pride that he could not perceive the scars on the hands and feet and the brows of the Lover nor how the cloth beneath the armpits of his tunic was dyed with a red dye. So he went out of the Garden cursing and shouting.
But the Lover looked sad and said, “A man like this does much harm to the cause of the Beloved, for by thus speaking falsely about the Beloved he may bring men to fear Him but none to love Him, and by love alone can any man approach the Beloved.”
