Fallout from shocking shooting at White House Correspondents’ Dinner (WHCD) continues to unfold Charlie Kirk‘s old tweet resurfaced, mentioning “assassination culture” alongside suspect Cole Allen’s manifesto.
at the same time, Erica KirkChrlie Kirk’s widow, who was in attendance, appeared distressed after the shooting, saying “I just want to go home” as chaos erupted at the Washington Hilton.
As details of the incident and suspects began to emerge, social media users resurfaced a year-old post by Charlie Kirk in which he warned of a growing “culture of assassinations.” In his post, Kirk cited polls suggesting that a segment of liberals believe violence against figures like Trump and Elon Musk is “justified.”
Tweet written by Kirk in reference to assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Luigi Mangione. “In California, activists are naming a ballot measure after Luigi Mangione,” he wrote.
WHCD shooting suspect Cole Allen is also a resident of California, where he worked as a teacher and attended college. He is a member of “The Wide Awakes” and is believed to have participated in the “No Kings” demonstrations in California.
Kirk further blamed the left in a tweet, writing: “The left is being whipped into a violent frenzy. Any setback, whether it’s losing an election or losing a court case, justifies a maximum violent response.”
He called leftists “ticking time bombs,” writing, “This is the natural outgrowth of years of tolerance of violence and chaos in a left-wing protest culture. The cowardice of local prosecutors and school officials turned leftists into time bombs.”
After the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner at around 8:30 pm ET on Saturday, April 25, a video that went viral showed Erika Kirk being led away from the event in tears.
In the video posted on social media, she looked in pain. She cried and kept saying, “I just want to go home.”
The incident drew attention, especially because her husband, Trump supporter Charlie Kirk, who was also a victim of what he referred to in his tweet as a “culture of assassination,” was shot and killed last September 10, 2025, while speaking at Utah Valley University.
Erika Kirk has since taken over his organization, TPUSA, as CEO.
