The Libs of TikTok drew the ire of the woke world when it started to post the messages of left-wing Liberal crazies verbatim. It seemed that their memes and diatribes were okay for their own consumption, but when everyone else got to see them accumulated in one place, that was grounds for triggering.
When a lunatic gunman tried to kill Donald Trump, the haters didn’t hesitate to hurl their venom, and the Libs of TikTok wasted no time in exposing them.
Donald Brochhausen was called out for posting, “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.” He was among many, some who were fired from their jobs, who wished the former president dead. His employer, Smithtown Family Medicine, confirmed he worked there as a receptionist but would not comment further.
“Meet Marty Walsh, an assistant professor at Berklee College in Boston,” the Libs offered. “He is not only disappointed that the PA assassin missed, but he also hopes for another copycat shooter.” To which X member Shotgun Pauley replied, “I don’t think that strategy is going to work with these colleges, bro. You probably just got him a promotion.”
Nashville Councilwoman Ginny Welsch was raked over the coals for voting down a resolution condemning the assassination attempt because she claims Trump “incited violence, so he asked for this to happen.”
Welsch’s colleague, Councilwoman Terry Vo, was also highlighted for voting against the resolution because it “might impact the Asian Community. She thinks “Trump has harmed the Asian Community with his speech.”
“Meet Geraldine Champion, a councilwoman for the City of Henderson, NC,” the Libs tweeted. “She claims that the assassination attempt that killed a loving father and almost killed a president was fake.” Champion, whose actions led the city to change its Social Media policy for its elected officials, added, “Now the taxpayers have to pay for a fake shooting he staged.”
Various Democrat staffers couldn’t resist the opportunity to show their true colors. An aide to Rep. Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, Jacqueline Marsaw, posted, “I don’t condone violence, but please get you some shooting lessons so you don’t miss next time.” Marsaw, who was let go from her political post, suggested the incident was staged but added, “That’s what your hate speech got you!” Thompson had advanced the Democrat lawfare strategy by suing the former president in the wake of the January 6 incident at the Capitol and previously proposed cutting Trump’s Secret Service protection.
John James, an instructor at Bellarmine University in Louisville, KY, was fired after the Libs of TikTok screenshotted his post about the shooter missing, moving Jason Cissell, the school’s assistant vice president for communication, to state, "Words and actions that condone violence are unacceptable and contrary to our values, which call for respecting the intrinsic value and dignity of every individual.”
Kyle Gass, part of the rap duo Tenacious D, drew flak for bemoaning on stage that the shooter missed. His bandmate, Jack Black, subsequently announced he was ending the rest of their tour and would pause any plans to work with Gass again in the future.
Another post elevated by the Libs of TikTok noted a worker getting fired from the Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar, a restaurant with locations in several states. Others getting the hook for their insensitive posts include a middle school behavior facilitator in South Dakota and a Pennsylvania fire chief. In Wayne, Pennsylvania, the Wayne Business Association reported its secretary resigned after a post about the shooting.
The Libs also blew up a picture of a guy holding up a poster stating: “RIP Thomas Matthew Crooks, an American Hero.” Like most of the posts on the assassination subject, the item had thousands of reposts and replies with the majority expressing outrage that people would actually think like that.
The popular Social Media outlet also ridiculed the media for initially failing to report that Trump was actually shot, with commentators suggesting that he was injured from a fall or that the blood streaming down his face was caused by shrapnel from his teleprompter. After it became clear that Trump missed death by a fraction of an inch, MSNBC’s Joy Reid kept at it, saying, “We still don’t know for sure whether Donald Trump was hit by a bullet, or if he was hit by glass fragments, whether he was hit by shrapnel. What is the actual injury to Donald Trump’s ear that’s under that bandage? Shouldn’t we know that by now? It’s weird, and there doesn’t seem to be a whole lot of curiosity about it,” she said, laughing. “Why isn’t the New York Times aggressively pursuing his medical records?”
“Interviewed at the GOP convention in Milwaukee, Delegate A.J Yvette put her perspective on the Democrat posts: “Well, they preach this whole thing about hate, but they’re the ones operating in hate, wishing death on someone. Is that not the epitome of hate? I mean, come on now.” She added, “They’ve got a machine behind them. They’ve got the liberal media and the powers that be that back them up and don't hold them accountable for their actions and just allow them to just push their narratives, their agendas, whatever it is—anything to make conservative Republicans look bad. That's their goal.”
Editor's Note: The Libs of TikTok’s post about Donald Brochhausen caused some agita for Family Medicine at Smithtown, a Northwell Health affiliate, which the Libs had mistaken for Smithtown Family Medicine. “Please note this person does not work for Northwell, and the views expressed are not those of the health system,” spokesman Todd Denzen said. “We firmly believe that there is no place for violence in our public discourse and have been outspoken against gun violence and its impact on the public health of our country.”
