   It's just too bad he was shot and not bludgeoned to death on video.   
      
        This is a current Secret Service agent, stating in a Facebook post,   
        that Charlie Kirk deserved what he got.   
      
       “You can’t circumvent karma, [sic] she doesnt [sic] leave.”   
      
       The comments are similar to the incendiary remarks now former @MSNBC   
       contributor Matthew Dowd made on the network. The network fired Dowd   
       from his contributorship yesterday for saying “hateful thoughts lead   
       to hateful words, which then lead to hateful actions.”   
      
       MSNBC called Dowd’s comments “insensitive and unacceptable” and   
       ultimately fired him.   
      
       The Secret Service agent’s post is circulating in the Secret Service   
       community with some agents upset over his sentiments because he   
       appears to be celebrating the death of a political figure, and one   
       whom the president is honoring with the Presidential Medal of Freedom   
       and has often had by his side at events over the last several years.   
      
       “If that’s all it takes to set you off, that’s dangerous to have   
       around,” one source in the Secret Service community told @RCPolitics   
       about the agent’s Facebook post on Kirk’s death.   
      
       “I’m mostly concerned about the morals of a person sworn to protect   
       the rights of others to engage in politics and exercise free speech,   
       celebrating the death of someone exercising those same rights,” the   
       source added.   
      
       Several of the agent’s Facebook posts negatively comment on Trump, his   
       administration, and its policies, but nothing that I’ve reviewed is as   
       pointed and offensive as this agent’s post about Kirk’s death.   
      
       I’m told this agent, who is in Phase 2 of his career, is not on a   
       detail that would be regularly charged with protecting Trump. Yet, all   
       agents, at times, are called off their official details/duties to   
       contribute to presidential coverage of some kind or another.   
      
       …   
      
       In the Wednesday Facebook post, the Secret Service agent, Anthony   
       Pough, justifies his “karma” comments by making a blanket statement   
       that “Charlie Kirk spews hate and racism on his show and adding the   
       words: “Charlie Kirk says black women do not have the brain processing   
       power.”   
      
       It’s an undeniably controversial subject matter, but the broad   
       statement Pough referred to didn’t include the full context.   
      
       These are Kirk’s full comments in July 2023 after the Supreme Court   
       declared affirmative action programs at public and private colleges   
       and universities are unconstitutional.   
      
       Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, Sheila Jackson Lee, and Kentanji Jackson -   
       an MSNBC host, former first lady, U.S. representative, and Supreme   
       Court justice, respectively — had all expressed strong disagreement   
       with the ruling.   
      
       Kirk:   
      
       “You really have to wonder. In fact, you know, if we would have said   
       three weeks ago, Blake, if we would have said that Joy Reid and   
       Michelle Obama and the late Rep. Sheila Jackson, Lee and Ketanji Brown   
       Jackson were affirmative action picks, we would have been racist, but   
       now they’re coming out, and they’re saying it for us.”   
      
       “They’re coming out and they’re saying, ‘I’m only here because [of]   
       affirmative action.'”   
      
       He then played footage of Jackson Lee, stating that she was a “clear   
       recipient of affirmative actions, and particularly in higher   
       education,” but insisting that she graduated on her own merits.   
      
       Kirk then added this response, appearing to refer to Jackson Lee, who   
       had just spoken in the clip he shared with his audience:   
      
       “Yeah, we know you do not have the brain processing power to otherwise   
       be taken really seriously. You had to go steal a white person’s slot   
       to go be taken somewhat seriously.”   
      
       “It’s very obvious to us that you were not smart enough to be able to   
       get in on your own,” he added.   
      
   I doubt very seriously if Pough is going to have a job in the government   
   for much longer. And honestly, if this is that he really thinks, then he   
   needs to go. There’s no way President Trump would ever trust this leftist   
   a-hole to keep him safe.
