'Hey, fascist! Catch!' Leftist group apparently recruiting college students with slogan tied to Kirk murder
Left-wing organizers appear to have posted flyers advertising their club at Georgetown University with the same slogans found on bullet casings near where Charlie Kirk was murdered.
The John Brown Gun Club reportedly posted bright red flyers around campus recruiting students with the phrase, "Hey, fascist! Catch!" in bold text. The flyer also brags that the John Brown Gun Club is "the only political group that celebrates when Nazis die," likely referencing Kirk's horrific assassination on September 10.
'There are students at this campus who want to see conservatives dead.'
Shae McInnis, a sophomore at Georgetown University who also serves as the treasurer of the College Republicans Club on campus, found the posters Wednesday morning.
"I read this immediately as a threat, not only for me but for everyone on this campus," McInnis told Fox News Digital. "Every conservative, everyone who just does not subscribe to the prevailing leftist orthodoxy, this is a direct threat against them."

"It means that there are students at this campus who want to see conservatives dead rather than engaging with their ideas, rather than facilitating a political discourse," McInnis added.
The John Brown Gun Club is a leftist group that originally "sought to militarize the white working class and spur it toward a social-justice revolution," according to the Counter Extremism Project. Although the club claims to simply act as armed security at protests, local chapters have often been associated with other left-wing militant groups like Antifa and have been involved in violent attacks.
Most notably, one chapter member, Willem van Spronsen, was killed by law enforcement in 2019 after he tried to blow up an ICE detention center using a propane tank and Molotov cocktails at the facility.

Since the flyers were found on campus, a spokesperson for Georgetown University said they have been removed and that the incident is being investigated.
"Georgetown University has no tolerance for calls for violence or threats to the university," the spokesperson said. "The flyers have been removed and the university is investigating this incident and working to ensure the safety of our community."
Georgetown did not respond to a request for further comment by Blaze News.

REACTION to Joe Biden’s speech addressing Trump’s near assassination – 'It was a campaign speech from the Oval Office'
Donald’s Trump’s almost assassination is undoubtedly “one of the singular most incredible things that any of us will ever witness,” says Stu Burguiere.
And yet, President Biden has treated his address as if it were “a campaign speech from the Oval Office.”
Stu is disgusted by Biden’s framing — that both sides need to “lower the temperature.”
“This isn't a situation where the right needs to lower its temperature,” he condemns, pointing to the reality that the Republican “candidate in this race almost got his head blown off.”

If anyone needs to “lower the temperature,” according to Stu, it’s the left.
The temperature was “raised intentionally by the left” when it realized its campaign was “falling apart” due to Biden being “a giant failure,” he explains.
“He is too old, and he [is] desperate, and when a candidate gets desperate, they ... start grasping for straws; the straw they picked out was: What if we turn on the temperature on Donald Trump?” he says, pointing to Biden’s comment on a recent donor call during which he said, “We have to put the bullseye on Trump.”
While Stu doesn’t think Biden’s bullseye comment is necessarily what inspired the shooter at Trump’s rally, he does think that Democrats were attempting to “distract people away from their own problems” by denigrating Trump, especially when they started “intentionally comparing him to Hitler,” which ultimately culminated into Trump escaping within a literal inch of his life.
Stu’s biggest criticism, however, is Biden’s “disgusting” decision to include a “laundry list” of examples of unacceptable political violence — all of which were pointed at the right.
He mentioned “violence against elected officials on January 6th,” “a former Speaker of the House’s husband getting beat up in his house” (a reference to the attack on Nancy Pelosi’s husband), “officials ... being harassed after the election because of election fraud,” and “the governor who was almost kidnapped” (a reference to the plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer).
“This dirt bag ... gave a both-sides setup and then gave all examples of things that he deemed right-wing,” criticizes Stu, adding that Biden failed to mention the “10% of elected Republicans [who] were almost murdered on a baseball field,” “[Supreme Court Justice] Brett Kavanaugh almost having his life taken by a person trying to kill him,” “the George Floyd riots,” and “Antifa violence.”
“This is a man who cares far more about his own campaign than he does the country and keeping it together,” he says.
