7. A group of Opelika citizens initiated a petition demanding the removal of former Miss America Mallory Hagan’s name from city welcome signs, objecting to her TikTok video where she called Charlie Kirk a selfish bigot. This is just her latest sad attempt to become relevant in left-wing Internet circles.

6. U.S. Rep. Barry Moore (R-Enterprise) suggested recently that Charlie Kirk statues should be placed at the U.S. Capitol, a contentious idea, but New College of Florida has found a more fitting venue and announced a bronze statue of Kirk at a table with a microphone on their campus.

5. Several University of Alabama professors posted derogatory comments about Charlie Kirk on social media following his assassination, including jokes about his death, prompting outrage among students and demands for apologies or disciplinary action.

4. A teacher at a Marshall County High School was removed from the classroom for comments disparaging Charlie Kirk’s assassination, they released no specifics but it is just another example of teachers using their platform to spread horrific ideas; teachers should know that the Alabama Education Association will defend these monsters and their jobs.

3. The media and their Democrats are working to explain why Charlie Kirk’s assassination was justified and how Luigi Mangione might be right, and now mobs are appearing outside courtrooms cheering on Mangione’s terrorism case being dropped.

2. Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey notes that Birmingham and Montgomery are currently not in line for a deployment of the National Guard, which currently focuses on Washington, D.C., Memphis, and Chicago, while emphasizing attempts to drive down crime in Alabama’s most crime-filled cities.

1. Governor-elect National Championship-winning Coach U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) argued against seeking unity with the left, stating there can be no healing after Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the glee too many Democrats continue to express over it.
