These revelations cut directly through attempts by the media to spin this as anything other than a politically motivated assassination.
GOP Pushes Back Hard
Republicans are not holding back. Furious lawmakers and commentators blasted efforts to somehow pin Robinson’s actions on President Trump or the MAGA movement.
Instead, they pointed to years of Democrats labeling conservatives as “Nazis,” “fascists,” “homophobes,” and “threats to democracy.” Many now argue that this rhetoric created the environment for Kirk’s murder.
Sparks Fly on Fox News
The debate over responsibility exploded live on Fox News’ The Five when Greg Gutfeld clashed with liberal co-host Jessica Tarlov.
“What is interesting here is, why is only this happening on the left and not the right? That’s all we need to know,” Gutfeld said, cutting straight to the heart of the matter.
Tarlov pushed back, bringing up other violent incidents, including the killing of Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman.
But Gutfeld wasn’t having it. “None of us were spending every single day talking about Mrs. Hortman. I never heard of her until after she died. And the… Don’t play that bulls—t with me. There was no demonization, amplification about that woman before she died. It was a specific crime against her by somebody who knew her.”
The exchange quickly escalated as Gutfeld dismissed the “both sides” framing. “The both sides argument not only doesn’t fly, we don’t care. We don’t care about your both sides argument. That s—t is dead,” he declared.

The Left’s Words Have Consequences
Gutfeld argued that the nonstop vilification of conservatives created the conditions that inspired Robinson.
“If you sat around and you defended the mutilation of children, you’re not the good guys. If you sat 600, 700 cases of harassment against Republicans and you said, ‘But what about this? What about this?’ And then you see this murderer after calling somebody a fascist, you realize, ‘Maybe I’m not the good guy,’” he said.
Gutfeld even described Robinson as a pawn of a dangerous ideology. “He was a patsy. He was under the hypnotic spell of a direct-to-consumer nihilism, the trans cult. If you can decide that biology is false, you can agree that murder is okay and that humanity’s expendable.”
Rejecting Media Spin
As Tarlov tried to walk back her remarks, Gutfeld doubled down. He said conservatives will no longer tolerate the media’s excuses or whataboutism.
“The two sides argument… it’s like pig Latin to a duck. Charlie had a conversation and he got shot. This thing is with us for good. And we all have to deal with that. So that means we can’t live by the same arguments that you might be reading about, about relativism among the media. It doesn’t matter. The media’s dead to us on this story. They built this thing up. We’re dealing with it. We’re gonna act. We don’t care what the what-about-ism is anymore. That s—t’s dead.”
A Clear Picture Emerging
The evidence is mounting: Robinson wasn’t some confused loner. He was motivated, influenced, and radicalized by a culture that demonizes conservatives daily.
Charlie Kirk was targeted because he dared to speak boldly against the Left. And Republicans say the time has come to hold those responsible for stoking this climate of hate.
