77. Trump called her a traitor
Sat Nov 22, 2025, 01:08 AM
Saturday

I bet the death threats are horrific. The Republicans all want to murder each other. Someone from Turning Points (according to Candace) said she was supposed to be murdered - not Charlie but that she and Tucker were on the kill list. Anna of Young Turks says she gets lots of death threats & she is not suicidal and if she’s killed, a certain country has been threatening her & to blame them. Kim Iverson said she’s getting death threats, someone broke into her house while she was home and
she’s not suicidal etc. Even Bill Maher says he has security.

Since Charlie’s death, house member security has been raised from $5,000 to $10,000 a month for security guards (expected to expire today) -but will be expanded Actually, $50,000 for 4 months. Everyone is freaked out after Charlie Kirk assignation.
House members also got $20,000 each to upgrade their house security cameras, etc

This is sick. Podcasters, journalists, representatives all need security now. Charlie Kirk traveled with 6 to 10 security guards and that didn’t save him. When Kirk was on Bill Mauers he questioned Charlie about having so much security with him. Candace said he kept telling her they “are going to kill me”
