WASHINGTON, D.C. — As millions of Americans continued to mourn several days after the assassination of a prominent conservative leader, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced the plan to honor Charlie Kirk's legacy by doing the exact opposite of everything Charlie Kirk stood for.
Just six days after Kirk was killed at an event promoting free and open debate in the public square, Bondi appeared as an interview guest on an internet podcast to make a stern pledge to prosecute individuals who were deemed to have engaged in "hate speech."
"The best way to honor Charlie is by going against what he stood for," Bondi said in a subsequent social media post. "Charlie was a relentless warrior who fought for the freedom of speech and the open exchange of ideas. That's why I'm making it my mission to police what people say, identify speech I don't like, and take steps to hold the perpetrators criminally responsible. It's a philosophy that is not at all what Charlie would have wanted. And, in his memory, I'm going to make it a reality."
Despite immediate backlash among conservatives, staffers at the Department of Justice stood by the AG's pledge. "What better way to continue Charlie's legacy than by crumpling it up and throwing it in the trash?" said one DOJ insider. "We owe it to Charlie to just brush off everything he fought so hard for and adopt the type of agenda that he rejected throughout his life's work."
At publishing time, Bondi said she was confident that any precedent set for censoring and prosecuting "hate speech" would never, ever be turned around and used against conservatives in the future.
