The ‘Outnumbered’ panel discuss reactions of the Charlie Kirk assassination from some media outlets and prominent Democratic leaders.
Public school teachers across the nation found themselves in hot water for posting controversial social media posts about the assassination of Charlie Kirk last week.
The Turning Point USA founder, a father of two and prominent conservative influencer, was shot and killed while speaking to thousands of college students at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, on Wednesday. Tyler Robinson, 22, was identified on Friday as the suspect in Kirk's assassination.
As news spread, some educators posted reactions on social media that were widely shared and sparked calls for their firing.
Samantha Marengo, a special education teacher at King Elementary School in Framingham, Massachusetts, was one of them. She allegedly filmed herself singing "God Bless America" next to a TV newscast announcing Kirk’s death and posted it to her Instagram, which has since been deleted. The video was preserved online by Libs of TikTok.
