SH0CKING NEWS: Jennifer Welch LAUGHS at Viral Clip Celebrating Charlie Kirk’s Death — Calls on Democrats to ‘Get Involved’ as Nation Erupts in Controversial Outrage Over Her Remarks
In a moment that has sent shockwaves across social media and reignited fierce debates about political decency, television personality and podcast host Jennifer Welch has found herself at the center of a national firestorm after appearing to laugh and mock the death of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk during a recent episode of her podcast.
The controversial moment came when Welch, known for her appearances on Bravo and her outspoken liberal commentary, played a viral clip from the “No Kings” protest—a left-wing demonstration that erupted following renewed tensions between pro-Trump and anti-Trump groups earlier this year. In the clip, protesters were seen cheering and celebrating after the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk in September 2025, an incident authorities have confirmed was carried out by an individual with extremist left-wing affiliations.
Instead of condemning the shocking behavior, Welch reportedly laughed during the playback, before delivering remarks that many found deeply offensive. “Fk Charlie Kirk. He was racist. He was a piece of st. There are so many more of us than there are of them,” Welch declared, in what many are calling one of the most disturbing displays of political cruelty in recent memory.
But it didn’t stop there. In an even more alarming twist, Welch went on to urge Democratic leaders—specifically calling out Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries—to “get on board with this sht*” or face consequences from the far-left wing of their own party. “If you don’t, we’ll come after you like we come after MAGA,” she warned, igniting a firestorm of outrage that spread faster than anyone could have predicted.
Within hours of the episode airing, social media exploded. Clips from Welch’s podcast flooded Twitter (now X), Instagram, and TikTok. The hashtag #CancelJenniferWelch trended nationwide, with many users calling her comments “disgusting,” “inhuman,” and “a new low for political discourse.”
Prominent conservatives, including Candace Owens and Ben Shapiro, condemned Welch’s remarks as evidence of “mainstream normalization of political hatred.” Owens tweeted, “Charlie Kirk was a husband, a father, and an American who believed in his country. The Left is celebrating murder — and the media is silent.”
Meanwhile, even some on the left expressed discomfort. Progressive journalist Glenn Greenwald wrote, “Jennifer Welch’s comments aren’t brave — they’re dangerous. Dehumanizing political opponents is how societies fracture beyond repair.”
Still, a small but vocal group of Welch’s fans defended her, claiming she was merely “expressing justified anger” against what they see as a corrupt and divisive political movement. This defense only deepened the national divide, prompting heated debates on free speech, moral boundaries, and the ethics of “celebrating” political violence.
The timing of the controversy couldn’t be worse for the Democratic Party, which has been struggling to distance itself from extremist rhetoric while maintaining unity ahead of the 2026 midterms. Welch’s statement—specifically her call for top Democratic leaders to “get involved” or face backlash—was interpreted by many as an open threat, one that exposes deep fractures within the left.
Republican lawmakers have already seized on the scandal. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene issued a statement demanding that Welch be investigated for “inciting violence” and called on the Justice Department to “treat this as the dangerous political rhetoric that it is.”
Former President Donald Trump also weighed in through his Truth Social account, writing: “Jennifer Welch is sick. What she said about Charlie Kirk is beyond disgraceful. The radical Left is completely unhinged. Total disgrace to our country.”
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was pressed for comment during a briefing, but declined to speak directly about Welch’s remarks, stating only that “violence or celebration of violence has no place in American society.” However, critics argue that the administration’s silence on the issue only fuels perceptions of hypocrisy, especially when compared to past condemnations of right-wing speech.
The Moral Debate
The broader question now gripping the nation is this: Has political hate gone too far?
Charlie Kirk’s assassination was already a devastating and divisive event, but Welch’s public reaction has reignited fears that America’s culture of outrage has reached a dangerous new level. Political experts warn that normalizing expressions of joy over a rival’s death could mark a turning point in the nation’s public discourse.
Dr. Elaine Corwin, a political sociologist at Georgetown University, told CNN, “When influential public figures laugh at political violence, they’re sending a message — that human life is secondary to political victory. That’s how democracies begin to rot from within.”
The outrage also highlights a disturbing double standard. Many conservatives argue that if a right-wing commentator had celebrated the death of a liberal figure, mainstream media outlets and Hollywood elites would have immediately condemned them and called for boycotts. Instead, Welch’s remarks have been largely ignored by major entertainment networks, sparking accusations of bias.
As the backlash grows, Jennifer Welch’s career may now hang in the balance. Several advertisers have reportedly pulled sponsorships from her podcast, and Bravo fans are calling for her removal from future projects.
In a short statement released through her publicist late Thursday night, Welch attempted to walk back her comments, saying, “I got carried away in a heated conversation about politics and regret my tone. I don’t condone violence, but I won’t apologize for my anger toward racism and hate.”

But the apology has done little to calm the storm. For millions of Americans — both on the left and right — her laughter over a man’s death represents a dark, unsettling reflection of where the nation’s political soul now stands.The Aftermath
Whether this controversy will fade or fundamentally reshape Welch’s image remains to be seen. But one thing is clear: her remarks have tapped into the raw nerve of a divided country, one teetering on the edge between political expression and moral collapse.
The clip continues to circulate, generating millions of views and sparking endless debate threads across social platforms. Supporters call her “fearless.” Critics call her “heartless.”
And somewhere in between, America is left to ask itself:
When did we stop being horrified by hate — and start applauding it?
