Overview
On the November 5, 2026 episode of their podcast I've Had It, Jennifer Welch read aloud a post saying "We're digging up Charlie Kirk and doing it again" and she and Angie Sullivan laughed. The hosts then said Kirk was shot by "a MAGA person". Critics condemned the exchange, and Cash App said it was no longer a sponsor of the show.
Read the full background
Charlie Kirk, a co-founder of Turning Point USA, was shot and killed while speaking at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025. Tyler Robinson is charged with aggravated murder. The criminal information filed against him attributes to his mother an account that over the year before the shooting he had become more political and had started to lean more to the left. It is a prosecution filing, not a verdict.
Jennifer Welch and Angie Sullivan host I've Had It, a progressive political podcast. Their November 5, 2026 episode, titled Drinking MAGA Tears, came two days after the midterm elections. Welch read aloud posts from X celebrating Democratic wins, then read one from an anonymous account: "We're digging up Charlie Kirk and doing it again." Both hosts lowered their heads and laughed for about 20 seconds. Sullivan then said Kirk was shot by somebody that was "super MAGA family" and Welch said he was shot by "a MAGA person".
Clips of the exchange spread on X that evening. Turning Point USA spokesperson Andrew Kolvet, commentator Benny Johnson, broadcaster Piers Morgan and journalist Glenn Greenwald condemned it. NewsNation host Chris Cuomo answered Johnson's post: "Whatever they are, you were just judged as worse...let that sink in." On November 6, Boll & Branch said it does not advertise with the podcast and will not in the future, and Cash App said it was no longer a sponsor.
As of November 7, the episode on the show's YouTube channel and in its podcast feed did not include the exchange, though the post about Kirk still appears in the list on screen. RadarOnline reported on November 6 that the exchange had been removed. We did not find a public response from Welch or Sullivan as of November 7, 2026.
