Former ESPN left-winger Jemele Hill quietly deleted a social media post claiming conservative activist Charlie Kirk was murdered by a “white supremacist” conspiracy, after evidence released by the FBI showed that the accused killer is a leftist.
The Atlantic writer had insisted that Kirk was the victim of a “white supremacist gang hit,” even as she called Kirk himself a white supremacist.
After a false story on the assassination was published by the L.A. Times, Hill rushed to her lefty bubble BlueSky social media account on September 12 to crow, “The LA Times spoke with an expert (imagine that!) about the markings on the killer’s bullet casings and turns out … Charlie Kirk likely was the victim of a white supremacist gang hit. Well, well, well.”
Since the posting, though, Hill has deleted the message without explanation.
The so-called “expert” that Hill was citing, Joan Donovan, an assistant journalism professor at Boston University, had claimed that the etchings reportedly placed on the shooter’s bullet casings meant he was a right-winger. Since then, however, it has come out that the accused killer is a transgender supporter, an Antifa drone, a far-leftist, and publicly stated he hates Christians and Charlie Kirk.
Charlie Kirk was brutally murdered while debating with college students on the campus of a university in Utah on September 10.
