Megyn Kelly Blames Obama for Charlie Kirk’s Death: A Controversial Claim Sparks Outrage

In a recent segment of The Kyle Kulinski Show, political commentator Kyle Kulinski highlighted a controversial statement made by former Fox News host Megyn Kelly, in which she appeared to suggest that former President Barack Obama bears some responsibility for the death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The claim has drawn strong reactions from across the political spectrum, with many questioning both its logic and its intent.

Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, was tragically shot and killed during a speaking event at Utah Valley University. The news shocked the political world, with tributes pouring in from conservative voices who praised Kirk’s role in mobilizing young right-wing voters. Among them was Megyn Kelly, who not only expressed sorrow over Kirk’s death but also used the moment to make a striking political point.

According to Kulinski’s breakdown, Kelly argued that the political environment that led to Kirk’s death can be traced back to the Obama presidency. In her view, Obama “started to inject race where no one had been doing it,” contributing to a deeply polarized culture. She further criticized Obama’s use of executive actions—referring to his infamous “pen and phone” approach—as a way of bypassing democratic norms, which she believes created a sense of alienation among many Americans.

Kelly claimed that since Obama’s rise to power, America “hasn’t felt like itself,” and she connected that feeling of national unease to the broader societal tensions that have erupted into acts of violence. While she stopped short of accusing Obama directly of causing Kirk’s death, the implication was clear: in her eyes, the former president’s rhetoric and leadership style helped set the stage for a more dangerous political climate.

However, critics quickly pointed out the flaws in this argument. There is no evidence linking Obama to the shooting, and many see Kelly’s comments as an attempt to score political points by exploiting a tragedy. Kulinski, known for his progressive views, criticized Kelly’s framing as dishonest and inflammatory, arguing that such claims only serve to deepen the already sharp divisions in American society.

The controversy touches on a larger trend in American political discourse, where public figures often seek to blame long-standing ideological opponents for current events, even when the connections are tenuous at best. In this case, Kelly’s remarks reflect a broader narrative within some conservative circles that view the Obama era as the beginning of cultural decline and political chaos.

Still, the claim that Barack Obama is in any way responsible for the tragic death of Charlie Kirk remains unsubstantiated and highly speculative. As the nation grapples with the loss of a prominent conservative figure, many are calling for a more respectful and fact-based dialogue, rather than using grief as a platform for political blame.
