Hannah said in her new video, “First of all, I am not MAGA. I was not at a MAGA rally. I went to a memorial for Charlie Kirk. A man who was brutally assassinated in front of thousands of people. A man who has a wife and children who will never get to see him again. And despite our differing beliefs, a man who did not deserve to die.”

“I don’t agree with a lot of what Charlie believed. Do I think that means he should be shot and killed? No. And if you disagree with that, we truly have nothing in common,” Hannah continued. “I was so disturbed last Wednesday when I opened TikTok and had to watch the video of him being assassinated. And even more disturbed when I opened the comments and all of them were celebrating and rejoicing his death.”

“I did not go to the memorial to align myself with any political views or to make a political statement. I went to pay my respects to a human that died,” she said. “And everybody who is attacking me for going to a memorial, really listen to that and think how insane that sounds. A man was murdered. Whether or not you agree with his political beliefs is so irrelevant. Because truly, if you are against gun violence… you cannot celebrate when someone you don’t like gets shot. You are a hypocrite.”

Hannah added, “So if you want to unfollow me, completely fine. I’d rather have zero followers than have hundreds of thousands of people that would celebrate the death of a man who just wanted to speak. But just know, that there is nothing you can take from me that matters.

“Jesus is king. And thank you so much. To everyone that is still supporting me and defending me, I love you so much, and I appreciate you. And for the people who are attacking me or unfollowing me, I love you, too,” she concluded.
