In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s shocking assassination on Wednesday afternoon at Utah Valley University, where he was fatally shot in the neck, Democrat Sen. Elizabeth Warren scoffed at and mocked calls for de-escalating heated political rhetoric from the left.
Speaking to CNN, Warren lashed out and deflected blame onto President Donald Trump and his “ugly” words, as the nation grappled with what was clearly a politically motivated murder.
Kirk, the 31-year-old founder of Turning Point USA, was gunned down while speaking at a campus event, with his killer still at large as of Wednesday evening.
“Democratic senator Elizabeth Warren was asked about, you know, some of the Republicans out there who came out and said, ‘It’s Democrats. They need to lower the temperature. That is the problem here.’ She responded to that with this,” OutFront host Erin Burnett said before playing a clip of the far-left senator’s response.
“Oh, please. Right. Why don’t you start with the president of the United States? Right? And every ugly. Mean he has. posted and every ugly word,” Warren fired back.

Her response came just hours after the shooting.
Burnett asked her guest, Democrat Sen. Mark Kelly, “Is that right or wrong?”
Kelly, the husband of former Rep. Gabby Giffords (who survived an assassination attempt in 2011), acknowledged that “everybody needs to lower the temperature.”
“Well, it was kind of broken,” Kelly responded.
Kelly continued, “I couldn’t hear everything, but I would say everybody needs to lower the temperature. You know, I’ve heard things said by my Democratic colleagues that are not helpful. I’ve heard things said by my Republican colleagues. And I think it’s important for people to understand, especially when they are in leadership positions, that your words have consequences.”
Warren’s refusal to introspect exemplifies how Democrats continue to stoke division and violence.
