Right-wing lawmakers pushed for a tribute to the U.S. conservative influencer who was shot dead.
European Parliament President Roberta Metsola on Thursday rejected a bid by right-wing factions to hold a minute of silence for slain U.S. conservative influencer Charlie Kirk.
The initiative was first proposed by Charlie Weimers, an MEP from the right-wing European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR), as a symbolic measure “to declare that our right to freedom of speech cannot be extinguished,” according to an email chain with dozens of MEPs that was seen by POLITICO.
Why should they? He wasn’t an elected official in Europe, he wasnt a world leader or a diplomat. He was some influenced, a dirtbag that spread racism and hate for money. He was Logan Paul basically, why would a parliament have a silence for him??
Ikr? Has kirk ever even left the us?
He went to Cambridge for a debate where he got absolutely trounced.
Apparently, he was in Japan last week to talk with the Sanseito Party, otherwise known as Japan First.
I think the earlier guy was asking if he’s ever left the US because “travel widens the mind”, but when people like that leave the country, they don’t even really need to “leave the country”. A private plane, constantly driven by his own people, eating his own food, etc etc etc.
Like Trump can go anywhere in the world and still not leave his cosy little McD and Fox&Friends bubble.
Maybe once or twice, for CPAC held in Hungary.
