Senator Fatima Payman has ignited a firestorm of controversy with her shocking comments on Charlie Kirk’s assassination. In a bizarre TikTok video, the independent Senator for WA described the conservative commentator as an ‘awful person’ who doesn’t deserve recognition.
‘What do I think about Charlie Kirk and obviously his assassination?’, Payman told her nearly 195,000 followers. ‘I think he was a pretty awful person and he doesn’t deserve all the recognition he’s getting.’
Payman’s comments have been met with swift condemnation from politicians and the public, with many calling her comments ‘vile’ and ‘revealing’. One Nation Leader Pauline Hanson accused Payman of exposing her ‘radical leftist ideology’, saying ‘Fatima Payman mocking the death of Charlie Kirk isn’t just vile, it’s revealing.’
‘When the mask slips, this is what the left shows us: no compassion, no decency, only contempt. And yet they lecture the rest of us about unity and respect,’ Hanson added.
Senator Ralph Babet also weighed in on the controversy, saying Payman’s comments were ‘not an offhand slip’. ‘This was gleeful, calculated mockery of a man’s violent murder, broadcast to the world from the platform of a sitting Australian Senator,’ he said.
A spokesperson for Senator Payman attempted to defend her comments, saying she condemns all forms of political violence and extends her sympathies to Charlie Kirk’s young family. However, the damage may already be done, with many calling for Payman to apologize or resign.
The controversy has sparked a heated debate about the limits of free speech and the role of politicians in public discourse. As the fallout continues to unfold, one thing is clear: Senator Fatima Payman’s comments have left a lasting impression on the Australian public.
