After the horrific and shocking assassination of conservative icon and activist Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, Amanda Dodson, a Pennsylvania emotional support teacher, reposted a vile statement that labeled Kirk as “racist, xenophobic, transphobic, islamophobic, sexist, white nationalist mouthpiece.” Additionally, the post alleged that Kirk incited hatred and deserved no empathy.
For context, the post, which initially was sourced from a page called “So Informed,” strongly advocates for woke ideology in opposition to Kirk. In reaction to the unexpected slaying, President Biden condemned the violence and announced he was praying for Kirk’s family. Similarly, former President Obama called the violence despicable.” Unfortunately, the School District of Lancaster has not addressed the vile posts, despite a massive wave of online outrage.
For context, in her inappropriate social media post, Amanda Dodson made wild allegations about the late pundit. She reposted, “Charlie Kirk was a racist, xenophobic, transphobic, islamophobic, sexist, white nationalist mouthpiece who made millions of dollars inciting hatred in this country. ”
Still non-done with the wild remarks, the teacher alleged, “Whether it was his genocide denial, his transphobic tirades, his pushing for mass deportations, or his normalizing Trumpism for years, the man stood for nothing but hate. I extend absolutely no empathy for people like that.”
Doubling down to an absurd level, the post continued, “In this situation, my empathy is reserved for his children. May they grow up to live in a country that is the total opposite of everything their father envisioned. May all of our children grow up to live in a country that values their lives enough to take gun violence seriously and reject any person who would try to justify senseless gun-related deaths — especially the deaths of children.”
Reacting to the assassination, former president Joe Biden took to X, formerly Twitter to post, “There is no place in our country for this kind of violence. It must end now. Jill and I are praying for Charlie Kirk’s family and loved ones.”
Echoing these remarks, Barack Obama noted, “We don’t yet know what motivated the person who shot and killed Charlie Kirk, but this kind of despicable violence has no place in our democracy. Michelle and I will be praying for Charlie’s family tonight, especially his wife Erika and their two young children.”

Other political figures, including Vice President JD Vance, were deeply affected by the loss. Mourning his friend, Vance posted, “I was in a meeting in the West Wing when those group chats started lighting up with people telling Charlie they were praying for him. And that’s how I learned the news that my friend had been shot. I prayed a lot over the next hour, as first good news and then bad trickled in.”
Concluding his comments, the VP noted, “God didn’t answer those prayers, and that’s OK. He had other plans. And now that Charlie is in heaven, I’ll ask him to talk to big man directly on behalf of his family, his friends, and the country he loved so dearly. You ran a good race, my friend. We’ve got it from here.”
