The PAC argues that this is not &#8220;cancel culture&#8221; but rather &#8220;result culture,&#8221; emphasizing accountability for those entrusted with teaching children. The institution aims to expose educators who promote radical or violent views, ensuring parents are informed about who is influencing their children. The article highlights instances of teachers displaying or advocating Kirk&#8217;s murder to students and administrators seeking to protect such educators from scrutiny. the piece frames the documentation and publicizing of these reactions as a necessary response to hazardous rhetoric within education, rather than an unjust silencing of free speech.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s not &ldquo;cancel culture&rdquo; to face up to the consequences of cheering on murder and ideological intimidation in the public square.

and that they&rsquo;ve documented &ldquo;over a hundred&rdquo; reports thus far.<\/p>\n<p>The announcement comes after progressive outrage in the wake of Kirk&rsquo;s death when a group of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/youtube-permanently-blacklists-dan-bongino\/\" title=\"YouTube Permanently Blacklists Dan Bongino\">prominent conservative pundits<\/a> and anonymous web outlets began collecting prominent social media reactions that celebrated or minimized the death of the Turning Point founder.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/leftists-panicking-online-maga-turns-tool\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">One of these websites<\/a> &mdash;

} <\/script> <\/p>\n<p>The outrage, perhaps unsurprisingly, wasn&rsquo;t directed at those who wrote the heinous things but those who catalogued them, who Wired tarred as &ldquo;far-right influencers and violent extremists&rdquo; in an article about the documentation.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, groups like the 1776 PAC &mdash; launched in 2021 by conservative activist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/watch-breaks-loose-cnn-conservatives-response-pro-palestinian-panelist\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ryan James Girdusky<\/a> &mdash; have continued to document just how deep the rot goes &mdash; and how it could spread to your children through carriers of the intellectual putrefaction.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I think that we have kind of just called it accountability,&rdquo; said 1776 Project PAC Executive Director Stefano Forte.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We decided to do this because we want to make sure that the next generation of students is not being taught by radicals in the classroom,&rdquo; he added.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;And we have gotten a ton of submissions. We are sifting through all of them. There are still submissions coming in.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Unlike websites like &ldquo;Charlie&rsquo;s Murderers,&rdquo; Forte said, the group has special expertise in this arena.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We are one of the only PACs, federal PACs in the country that does this,&rdquo; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This is a very niche PAC. We do school board races. We&rsquo;ve done other races in the past, but our bread and butter is the school board races.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;And the reason why we&rsquo;re pouring so much money into school board races is because, traditionally, the establishment of the Republican Party has not really made this a priority for themselves. They haven&rsquo;t really gone after school boards,&rdquo; Forte added.<\/p>\n<p>And now, they&rsquo;ll be looking at how the people these school boards countenance are either celebrating or condoning the murder of a conservative activist.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;What this accountability project does for us is it gives parents a well-rounded view of the people that are teaching their kids,&rdquo; Forte said.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;So it is absolutely pivotal. We do not want to dampen anybody&rsquo;s free speech. We want to accelerate their free speech, we want to give them an even bigger platform, so people can know what they truly believe,&rdquo; he added.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve gotten thousands of them. I believe that about a hundred of them will be valid by the time we&rsquo;re done sifting through everything &hellip; If you are putting your face, your name, you are saying that you believe that the death of Charlie Kirk is something to celebrate about. All we are doing as an organization is saying, &lsquo;Great, we amplify your voice. We&rsquo;ve given you a megaphone.&#8217;&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>And that&rsquo;s the thing: It&rsquo;s not that they&rsquo;re being canceled for a belief that should be legitimate in a society that has guardrails. This isn&rsquo;t a religious or peaceful political tenet being forwarded: It&rsquo;s calls or apologies for murder. And it&rsquo;s coming not just from some Instagram randos, but from the men and women who are paid to teach our children.<\/p>\n<p>This isn&rsquo;t just a witch-hunt in a vacuum looking for a contingent of sick progressive educators that doesn&rsquo;t exist. One <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/leftist-teacher-showed-charlie-kirk-assassination-students-told-deserved-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Canadian teacher<\/a> showed the assassination to students as young as 10, reports indicate, and said he had it coming. In Rhode Island, students called for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/three-students-stand-charlie-kirk-call-firing-teacher-celebrated-murder\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">teacher to be fired<\/a> after he went on a TikTok rant saying that Kirk was a &ldquo;piece of garbage&rdquo; because of spurious claims about what he allegedly (but didn&rsquo;t) believe.<\/p>\n<p>And, in Indiana, a school administrator <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/conservative-education-pac-gathering-reports-teachers-celebrating-charlie-kirks-death\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">offered advice and protection<\/a> for educators who&rsquo;d made problematic statements &ldquo;to protect your privacy and well-being,&rdquo; warning them not to attract &ldquo;scrutiny.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>This is not &ldquo;cancelation.&rdquo; That involves ruining people&rsquo;s lives for perfectly normal and peaceable opinions; celebrating the death of someone for free speech is not normal and antithetical to peace.

The left must come to terms with this reality following the assassination of conservative activist and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk last month. Fortunately, the 1776 PAC is addressing this issue. In a recent Fox News interview, the PAC&#8217;s executive director revealed they have collected over a hundred reports of educators at Utah Valley University openly celebrating Kirk&#8217;s death on September 10.  <\/p>\n<p>This development follows progressive backlash after conservative commentators and anonymous websites compiled social media posts that either celebrated or downplayed Kirk&#8217;s killing. One such site, &#8220;Charlie&#8217;s Murderers,&#8221; exposed disturbing comments from journalists, medical professionals, and educators about his death.<\/p>\n<p>While some criticized those documenting these reactions-labeling them as &#8220;far-right extremists&#8221;-organizations like the 1776 PAC continue to expose how deeply problematic views have infiltrated educational environments and could influence children.<\/p>\n<p>Stefano Forte, Executive Director of 1776 PAC, described their efforts as holding people accountable: ensuring future students aren&#8217;t taught by radical ideologues. The group specializes in school board races because traditional Republican leadership has largely neglected these contests.<\/p>\n<p>Their work provides parents with insight into who is teaching their children without suppressing free speech; instead, it amplifies voices that celebrate violence so society can judge them accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t about canceling peaceful opinions but confronting calls for or justifications of murder coming from trusted educators-a serious issue documented across multiple states including Canada, Rhode Island, and Indiana.<\/p>\n<p>Such behavior isn&#8217;t acceptable free expression; it demands consequences rather than silence or dismissal. After witnessing professionals condone Kirk&#8217;s assassination publicly, Americans are unlikely to ignore such conduct going forward.<\/p>\n<p>In short: this is accountability-not cancel culture-and society must adapt accordingly<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2497839,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Michael-Featured-Image-184.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[55366,65023,63094,36160],"class_list":["post-2497838","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-conservative-groups","tag-educator-watchlist","tag-kirk-assassination","tag-political-controversy"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Michael-Featured-Image-184.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2497838","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2497838"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2497838\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2497842,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2497838\/revisions\/2497842"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2497839"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2497838"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2497838"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2497838"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
