Charlie Kirk has been transformed into an internet laughing stock, with his legacy destroyed by grifters and his wife.

https://theintercept.com/2026/09/07/charlie-kirk-internet-meme/

In the year since he was gunned down at an event at Utah Valley University, the Turning Point USA founder has gone from a man cut down in his prime to a recurring internet meme, complete with an AI-generated song, “We Are Charlie Kirk,” which hit No. 1 on Spotify’s Viral 50 U.S. ranking. Audio of his killing became a TikTok sound for girlie outfit transformation videos; he’s been inserted into movies like “Avatar” and “The Odyssey”; he’s been AI’d into Studio Ghibli-style art, the final scene of “The Sopranos,” and the video game “Grand Theft Auto.” Even the moment of his death has gotten the meme treatment, with parodies depicting him with Jeffrey Epstein and Benjamin Netanyahu.

The ridicule comes as a product of the American right’s insistence that Kirk’s violent death be taken seriously. They fought back hard against the meme-making and serious critique alike, weaponizing the conservative college-whisperer’s death to broadly crack down on free speech.

President Trump and his allies almost immediately blamed Democrats and “the radical left,” without evidence, for Kirk’s assassination. At the Department of Defense, Secretary Pete Hegseth promised to investigate whether members of the armed forces were inadequately mournful and terminate them. The State Department revoked visas of noncitizens who “celebrated” Kirk’s death. Local cops got in on the civil rights-bashing fun, too: A Tennessee man was arrested for posting a meme in the wake of Kirk’s death, amid a wave of firings in the state on similarly unstable grounds.

>On social media, Mr. Trump shared an image of a map of New Mexico with the word “Mexico” crossed out with a red X and replaced with “America.” The White House re-shared the image shortly after on its official X account.

>Four of the games on the White House’s arcade website were still available to play as of Tuesday afternoon, including apparent clones of “Flappy Bird” and “Snake,” but the Tetris-style game entitled “Build the Wall” was nowhere to be found.

>It was not immediately clear why the White House removed the game, although the Tetris Company has successfully sued imitators in the past.

>The Tetris Company previously stated it was “not involved” in the game’s production and takes copyright infringement “very seriously,” shortly after the arcade website was unveiled.

>The White House and Tetris did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Forbes.

The White House released a collection of MAGA-themed online arcade games last week, which featured Trump-approved messages modeled after classic games. These include “Flappy Bill,” an apparent riff on the classic mobile game “Flappy Bird,” and “Rio Run,” which is reminiscent of the “Snake” games that came programmed into Nokia cell phones. The White House also released videos previewing the site featuring vintage logos for Xbox, Sega and Pac-Man, among other iconic gaming brandings. So far, no games publishers have announced copyright challenges against the website.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani released more than 170,000 pages of internal records Tuesday that show officials misled people about the safety of the air around Ground Zero after the September 11 terror attacks.

“People got sick because the leaders they trusted lied and told them they were safe to breathe in toxic air,” Mamdani said during a news conference.

The move came just days before the U.S. is set to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the al Qaeda hijackings that killed nearly 3,000 people when passenger planes toppled the World Trade Center’s Twin Towers, damaged the Pentagon and crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.

Comedian and activist Jon Stewart, an outspoken supporter of first responders who were sickened while searching for remains at Ground Zero, also spoke at Mamdani’s City Hall news conference.

“There was poison in the air, and on the ground, and in the window sills, and in your air conditioners, and covering your pets and your clothes, and it stayed there for months,” he said. “Everyone knew. Now it’s very clear that the city knew as well.”

Key findings from the documents, which were reviewed by The New York Times before Tuesday’s announcement, include:

• Asbestos levels in dust samples throughout lower Manhattan exceeded hazardous limits in the days after September 11.

• Asbestos and other contaminants were found above acceptable limits in dust and air in lower Manhattan.

• A November 2011 audit showed levels of the carcinogen benzene were still spiking in the air around the towers’ footprints.

• That audit also showed that the amount of asbestos in the air at the Fresh Kills landfill on Staten Island increased after the attacks.

• A woman who lived in lower Manhattan wrote a letter to the DEP in February that detailed alleged missteps by officials in removing contaminants from in and around her building.

Thune ready to have ‘conversation’ with Fetterman about joining GOP — as Dems rage against RNC ‘stunt’
https://nypost.com/2026/09/10/us-news/thune-ready-for-conversation-with-fetterman-about-joining-gop-as-dems-rage-against-rnc-stunt/

DALLAS — Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) told The Post in an exclusive interview Thursday that he’s willing to woo Sen. John Fetterman to join his conference after the Pennsylvania Democrat made a surprise virtual appearance at the Republican convention.

“If and when he is ready to have that conversation, we are certainly ready to have it,” the Republican leader said. “It’s going to be increasingly hard for him to have a home in a Democratic Party that is so far out of step with his core values, and I think that you know what he said yesterday reflects that.”

“I don’t push him on it,” Thune added, speaking on the sidelines of the Republican midterm convention in Dallas the morning after Fetterman appeared on the jumbotron to express support for fellow Pennsylvania Sen. Dave McCormick, a Republican.

Rep. Madeleine Dean (D-Pa.) dismissed the video endorsement as a “stunt,” before taking aim at Fetterman’s “work ethic” and claiming the senator was “just not present” in his official duties.

“My constituents are livid. Those who went out and knocked doors for him are absolutely livid,” Dean said.

Fetterman took the rare step of praising McCormick, who at one point might have been his 2022 opponent, at the Republican convention as questions swirl about whether he will change his party registration — or be ousted in the future by a primary challenger from his own party.

CANFIELD, Ohio (WOIO) - An armed Canfield man was arrested Sunday at the Canfield Fair after lunging at Ohio gubernatorial candidate Dr. Amy Acton and injuring multiple people, according to campaign officials and sheriff’s deputies.

Records show Patrick Havas, 38, of Canfield, has been booked into the Mahoning County Jail on two counts of assault and one count of disorderly conduct.
What Happened

Gerry Ricciutti, a spokesperson for the Mahoning County Sheriff’s Office, said Havas walked around 2:30 p.m. into a tent for the Mahoning County Democrat Party (MCDP) and was taking cellphone video of Acton.

As Acton spoke to a crowd pf people, Ricciutti said Havas pushed his way through them, knocking two to the ground.

Havas was confronted by Acton’s security detail, which included Ohio State Highway Patrol troopers, and was arrested by Canfield police officers.

Ricciutti said deputies recovered two guns and a set of brass knuckles following his arrest. However, he said Havas did not use the weapons during the incident.

The highway patrol will be handling the investigation.

>Political Background and Reaction

>Voting records show Havas is a registered Republican. He has a criminal history including three theft charges and traffic offenses, according to court records.

“Let me be clear - The Mahoning County Democratic Party (MCDP) abhors political violence in all forms. What happened at our tent today during today’s visit from Dr. Acton is reprehensible and should be condemned by leaders on all sides of the aisle,” the MCDP chair said.

The Ohio gubernatorial race is one of the most high-profile races this year as the campaigns enter the final six weeks of campaigning before the general election in November.

Some 10 days before Hamas’s October 7, 2023, attack on Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was personally warned by the leader of the United Arab Emirates that Hamas was planning a major offensive move against Israel, but did not update Israeli security leaders and did nothing with the information, according to a report on Tuesday.

An Emirati source familiar with the conversation confirmed the Haaretz newspaper’s report to The Times of Israel later Tuesday, and said the warning came during a phone call between the two leaders.

The UAE itself declined to confirm or deny the report, issuing a statement that noted “open lines of communication” with Israel through which “all relevant intelligence has been and continues to be communicated.”

Netanyahu’s office issued a statement Tuesday evening saying that “the press reports are false. No warning was given to the Prime Minister from the United Arab Emirates before October 7. If there was any relevant information, it was passed through intelligence channels between the two countries.”

The Haaretz report cited a new book, “Kidnapped: 843 Days of Abandonment,” by journalists Shlomi Eldar and Ruth Yuval, based on interviews with dozens of sources including senior officials in Israel and around the world. It said three senior foreign officials were updated on the contents of the 45-minute phone call at the end of September, and it cited a Palestinian adviser to Emirati President Mohammed bin Zayed who emigrated from Gaza to the UAE and had direct knowledge of the conversation.
