As news of the horrific assassination of conservative icon and TPUSA co-founder Charlie Kirk continues to reverberate across the country, Democrats are acting ghoulish and engaging in “whataboutism” and the old, “well, he did say some divisive things” canard.
It’s a truly sad moment in our country, yet on the floor of the House of Representatives, the left continued to prove that they are willing to stoop to ever new lows. After Colorado GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert asked for a spoken prayer, the Dems jeered and belittled the motion.
Our sister site Townhall has the unfortunate receipts:
An unbelievable moment on the House floor.

Rep. Lauren Boebert requests a moment of prayer for Charlie Kirk.
Democrats can be heard shouting "no!"
Then, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna shouts back "y'all caused this!" pic.twitter.com/puEobizZTk
It started when Boebert demanded that members actually say a prayer out loud, instead of just in their heads:
A moment of silence on the House floor for conservative commentator Charlie Kirk devolved into a moment of chaos as a pair of Republicans called out Democrats.
With every lawmaker standing up in quiet observance, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) demanded a spoken prayer.
“Silent prayers get silent results,” she said, leading to jeers from Democrats, with some shouting about a school shooting that also happened Wednesday.
Boebert's colleague, Anna Paulina Luna (FL), was disgusted and shouted, “Y’all caused this!”
It’s hard to disagree with her point after all the inflammatory, violent rhetoric we’ve seen from the Democrats in recent years.

Luna was disgusted by her colleagues' heartless antics and had called them out earlier Wednesday in no uncertain terms on social media. “I am done with the rhetoric this rotten House and corrupt media has caused. EVERY DAMN ONE OF YOU WHO CALLED US FASCISTS DID THIS,” she charged.
Luna's language is strong (click on the link for the rest), but her point is hard to deny—Democrats’ violent rhetoric is leading to real-world tragedy. “It’s time to put Trump in the bull’s-eye,” then President Joe Biden said on a donor call in July of ’24. Trump was shot in the ear just days later in an oh-so-close assassination attempt that could have easily ended up just as tragically as the murder of Charlie Kirk did today.
They even debased themselves during a simple call to prayer for an American patriot who had just been shot. Despicable.
