I have been getting a ton of emails asking if this assassination of Charlie Kirk is what the computer has been forecasting about the great divide in the United States. Multiple companies across the United States are now issuing warnings to employees that they won’t have a job to go back to on Monday if they post comments celebrating or mocking the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.
Shockingly, even MSNBC analyst Mike Dowd, on Sept. 11, the day after Kirk was fatally shot at a Utah university, was fired. Appearing on MSNBC Live with Katy Tur, he was asked about “the environment in which a shooting like this happens.” Dowd responded by describing Kirk as “one of the most divisive, especially divisive younger figures in this” political landscape, who was “constantly sort of pushing this sort of hate speech or sort of aimed at certain groups.” He then added:
“Hateful thoughts lead to hateful words, which then lead to hateful actions… You can’t stop with these sort of awful thoughts you have and then saying these awful words and then not expect awful actions to take place.”
Dowd also speculated before it was confirmed that Kirk was the target that the shots might have been fired by “a supporter shooting their gun off in celebration,” noting the lack of details at the time and Kirk’s strong Second Amendment advocacy. These remarks aired shortly after initial reports of gunfire but before Kirk’s death was publicly confirmed by then-President Trump on Truth Social.
The comments of Dowd illustrated the raw hatred in this country, and MSNBC has been a champion of dividing the country, along with CNN. If Trump said the sky is blue, they will call him a liar because it is red. They have championed Russiagate, protected Hillary’s emails, and done everything they could to be one-sided and hateful. Not that FOX is an angel. When the media pushes their one-sided agendas, they divide the people. Dowd’s definition of hate speech is anything he disagrees with.
Hitler’s rise was entirely predictable in 1933, thanks to the oppression of the German people with the reparation payments demanded by France out of hatred, seeking vengeance to punish the common people for the previous leadership. The common people are NEVER asked whether we should go to war. Throughout history, wars have ALWAYS been created by the leadership. The French hatred of the Germans caused World War II.
The German press during the Weimar Republic began to hate Jews by blaming Jews for the corruption of the Weimar Republic. The Sklarek Jewish brothers bribed mid-level city officials to win extremely lucrative contracts to supply uniforms for the Berlin police, fire department, and other city employees.
The Barmat Scandal (1924-1925) involved two Jewish brothers from the Netherlands, who used their political connections to engage in large-scale fraud. Using their high-level political friendships as leverage, the Barmats secured enormous loans and lines of credit from Germany’s state-owned postal bank (Reichspost) and the Prussian State Bank (Seehandlung). They essentially used their political “pull” to convince bank directors that they were a safe bet. That all collapsed.
The corruption was widespread after the overthrow of the monarchy in 1918. It led to the resignation of the Berlin mayor, Gustav Böß (1873-1946), and severely weakened the SPD’s hold on the capital. The right-wing press sensationalized these to paint the entire Republic as corrupt and “Jew-ridden.”
The constant perception of corruption delegitimized democracy in the eyes of many Germans. Parties on both the far left and far right could credibly argue that the Weimar system was a corrupt, self-serving failure. This made the public more receptive to extremist solutions, most notably Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Party, which promised to break the corrupt “system.” It was the press and their division that led to the hatred of the Jews as they promoted the conspiracy that Communism was a Jewish Plot. The German press divided the country, and this is what the American press is doing to America, ensuring it too cannot stand united.
Dowd’s comments essentially justified the assassination of Kirk because he disagreed with what he said. This drew immediate backlash on social media and from conservative figures, who interpreted them as victim-blaming—implying Kirk’s rhetoric had provoked his own assassination. Fox News host Jesse Watters, for instance, called for Dowd’s immediate firing, labeling the remarks “disgusting” and dangerous. MSNBC President Rebecca Kutler issued a statement denouncing them as “inappropriate, insensitive and unacceptable,” emphasizing that “there is no place for violence in America, political or otherwise.” The network fired Dowd by the end of the day, marking the first high-profile consequence in a wave of professional repercussions for inflammatory statements about Kirk’s death.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy on Sept. 13 said that multiple pilots employed by American Airlines have been immediately grounded and removed from service, and Delta Airlines employees have also been suspended pending investigation. “This behavior is disgusting, and they should be fired,” Duffy wrote on X in response to the American Airlines news. “Any company responsible for the safety of the traveling public cannot tolerate that behavior.”
Our computer pinpointed the shift that began with Ukraine in 2022. You can see that 2024 was a turning point, and this trend will continue to rise into next year, 2026. This type of division will increase in intensity during economic declines. Our computer also warned that from May 2024, we are headed into a recession that will not bottom until 2028 and is more likely to end up as a depression in Europe.
