‘Tolerant Left:’ Antifa Mob Break Through Doors at Charlie Kirk UC Davis Event
The Sacramento Bee claimed Kirk called for lynching trans people

Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk was invited by the local TPUSA group to speak at U.C. Davis Tuesday. Ahead of his speech, the Sacramento Bee published an inflammatory article by Bee opinion assistant Hannah Holzer which claimed that Kirk had openly called for lynching trans people. Holzer posted this statement on Twitter, then deleted it.
Kirk vehemently denies he ever said this, and announced he may sue the Sacramento Bee.
An opinion assistant editor for @sacbee_news, who is far-left herself, helped incite a violent #Antifa riot at @ucdavis with a fake news piece that falsely said @charliekirk11 called for “lynchings of trans people.” One of the tactics of the far-left is to spread lies about a… https://t.co/rbRZP1tF7Z pic.twitter.com/IHxhdCJiwS

Making the situation worse, according to journalist Andy Ago, the U.C. Davis Chancellor added fuel to the violence, rather than calling for calm:
@ucdavis’ own @Chancellor_May helped incite a violent #Antifa riot on his campus by repeating the lie that @charliekirk11 calls for violent attacks.

Ngo, who was the victim of Antifa violence, concluded that the Sacramento Bee and U.C. Davis Chancellor helped incite violence at the event, where Antifa thugs smashed glass doors tryin to get in to the event. College Fix has the video of the chancellor’s message.
Kirk also posted video of the violence:
“Violent leftwing agitators just smashed through windows outside of the event venue here at UC Davis. Reports are that some of this group made their way into the building before police successfully removed them. Pray for peace and safety for all involved.”

“While promoting the story on social media, the Bee said ‘Another fascist speaker is coming to UC Davis’ and added ‘Charlie Kirk has called for the lynching of trans people, a comment that should warrant the cancellation of his speaking engagement at UC Davis’,” Barrett News Media reported.
“In response, Kirk said ‘this is defamation and libel’ on Twitter. ‘We will sue unless it is corrected. Left wing rags like the SacBee are allowed to platform lies against conservatives and get away with it. Time for lawfare.’”
The Sacramento Bee altered the original article saying, “An earlier version of this column included a reference to trans people that Charlie Kirk has strongly denied. His denial has been added to the column.”
Kirk responded accordingly:
Charlie Kirk responds to Sacramento Bee for saying he has “called for the lynching of trans people.”
“That is a lie. I have never done that … I’ve always been clear about peaceful activism.”

“That is a lie. I have never done that. I have never thought that,” Kirk said. He shared what he actually said: “In the 50’s and 60’s we would not have put up with men going into female locker rooms. It’s totally true that a District Attorney would have arrested a man going into a female locker rooms for being a pervert,” he said.
He goes on to say the Sacramento Bee published the lynching comment after a trans activist made the accusation after Kirk’s comment about what would happen to men going into women’s locker rooms in the 50’s.
“If they can do it to me, they’re going to do it to you.”
Elon Musk even weighed in noting, “Not a peaceful protest at all.”

UPDATE 1:30pm: Two people were arrested for painting graffiti on the wall where the event was held, KCRA3 reported.
OANN reported: “One officer sustained an injury when he was jumped on from behind and pushed to the ground, and two people were arrested and taken to Yolo County Jail for allegedly painting graffiti on an exterior wall of the University Credit Union Center, or UCUC, where the event was held,” UC Davis officials said.

The Sacramento Bee needs to be sued out of existence.
Charlie Kirk hopefully will sue the Sac Bee out of existence!
The UC Davis Chancellor should resign now. His speech ahead of the TPUSA event contributed to the hostility toward Charlie Kirk and fanned the flames. The Chancellor does not have to agree or like Charlie Kirk but he should protect freedom of speech and encourage dialogue.. Civil discourse was once revered and encouraged on college campuses which is exactly what Charlie Kirk wants from students! Oh the irony.
Antifa does not need more encouragement to bomb, burn and bleed!
They are a goon squad and nothing more.
UC Davis and the Chancellor will be named, along with the Sacramento Bee, in the lawsuit by Charlie Kirk and Turning Point. It could have been worse for the defendants if anyone had been physically injured.
Never mind what the Rent-A-Mobs like “Antifa” do —- these hysterical lying assertions against Charlie Kirk by the Sacramento Bee and others are so plainly false on their face that even those left-of-center likely don’t believe them. All who recklessly cooperate with the violent fake mob culture need to beware.
These people, just like the SVB managers, are about to find out that outside of their woke habitats, bad behavior has negative consequences for themselves AND their complacent followers.
Yes, a bubble is only a bubble and easily popped, as we have repeatedly seen. Reality awaits outside of it.
Antifa is the thug contingent of the Democrat party and the Sacramento Bee is part of the propaganda division of the Democrat party. Democrats are violent extremists and a threat to democracy.
Native Sacramentans with common sense know that the Sacramento Bee has always been a propaganda rag for the Democrats and the radical left. It’s full of fiction and not worth reading. Charlie Kirk should sue the Sacramento Bee as well as U.C. Davis Chancellor Gary May for falsely claiming that Charlie Kirk wants to lynch trans people to escalate violence? The Sacramento Business Journal published photos of U.C. Davis Chancellor Gary May and his “wife” at the Mondavi Center Gala at UC Davis on March 4. They are quite the odd-looking couple?

Oh, well this picture explains A LOT!
Gary May is a stakeholder shall we say to push an agenda. It is personal for him.
Charlie needs to sue UC Davis Chancellor May and The Sacramento Bee for slander and libel defamation. It’s the only way to stop the left and the Democrat cabal from their spewing lies with impunity. Trial discovery should be interesting?
A lawsuit seems to be a necessary response to this outrage and it wouldn’t surprise me to see Charlie Kirk pursue it. He doesn’t strike me as the type who gives up. If that is the final death knell for the Sac Bee perhaps a publication that is actually sensible, useful, and informative can rise from its ashes.
It turns out that a police officer was injured in the melee at UC Davis. I don’t believe that the Sacramento Bee and their reporter or UC Davis and their Chancellor should be let off the hook but simply issuing “corrections” and or “apologies” for what they did. They need to own up.

Once again the Sacramento Bee proves itself to be a member of “American Pravda”, all of whose members support joe biden’s hatred for The American People who are outside of the DC Swamp~! “American Pravda” has helped murder millions of Americans by means of attacking Everyone who supported use of Ivermectin, Hydroxichorlquine, etc, etc, for healing the Chi-Coms’ Covid-19 war against America, for biden’s love of fentanyl drug murders of so many thousands of Americans, as well as supporting biden’s Mexican Drug Cartels’ importation of sex-slaving all across America~!! There needs to be an array of Trillion Dollar Class Action lawsuits Against “American Pravda”~!!
