    Everything about Kirk’s death is performative and self-serving. Even from his widow. And I hate saying that, but it’s true.

    All the way back to the first so-called “memorial” whose poster included 3-people, (Vance, Trump, and Kirk’s widow) and literally no photo of Kirk himself…on a poster for HIS goddamn memorial. We all know that turned into nothing more than a MAGA rally, and from there nothing has changed.

      Yup, shot right through the neck while spewing racist bullshit at a university. As someone who campaigned for bringing back public executions, his wife and kids were there to witness, exactly how he wanted it.

      Can you believe that the little shit was only in his early 30s? I thought he was at least a decade and a half older. Hate ages you more quickly.
