Republican Rep. Rep. Randy Fine of Florida is crowdsourcing tips on individuals in the Sunshine State who work in government, work for an organization that receives government funding, or possess a professional license, and are openly celebrating the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
Fine, who took office earlier this year after winning a special election, declared that individuals celebrating Kirk’s death must be ousted from “civil society.”
“If you are aware of anyone in the 6th District of Florida — or heck, anywhere in the state — who works at any level of government, works for an entity that gets money from government (health care, university), or holds a professional license (lawyer, medical professional, teacher) that is publicly celebrating the violence, please contact my office. I will demand their firing, defunding, and license revocation,” Fine said in the post.

Elon Musk included the hundred points emoji when sharing Fine’s post, seeming to express his support for the congressman’s comments and plan.
“Scrolling @X this morning and seeing post after post exposing another Democrat teacher, medical professional, or serviceman celebrating Charlie’s death is profoundly disturbing. For every one insane enough to be public, how many are privately among us?” Fine had written in a prior post on X.

“I’m also going after their business licenses and permitting, their businesses will be blacklisted aggressively, they should be kicked from every school, and their drivers licenses should be revoked. I’m basically going to cancel with extreme prejudice these evil, sick animals who celebrated Charlie Kirk’s assassination,” the congressman noted.
