Berkeley Goes Berserk: “Fk Your Dead Homie” and the Death of Decency**
When free speech meets the mob, America’s campus Left shows us what “tolerance” really means.
Good morning. It’s Wednesday, November 12th, and America’s “elite” universities are once again proving that higher education doesn’t mean higher character.
At UC Berkeley, the Left turned a memorial tour for Charlie Kirk into a street brawl — smoke bombs, blood on the pavement, and a crowd chanting “F**k your dead homie.” You read that right. The same people who lecture the rest of us on “kindness” now celebrate political murder.
If you think this story needs to be heard, forward it to one person who still believes the campus Left is about “tolerance.”
And as always — hit reply with your take. Were you there? What do you make of this descent into hate?

“F**k Your Dead Homie”: Berkeley’s Mob Just Proved Kirk Was Right
The Left’s ‘tolerance’ tour ends in smoke bombs, blood, and open celebration of political murder.
Violence erupted last night at UC Berkeley — the final stop of Turning Point USA’s national tour — where protesters chanting “F**k your dead homie” clashed with conservative students honoring the late Charlie Kirk.
What was meant to be a night of reflection and resolve turned into a war zone. Outside Zellerbach Hall, a “rowdy” mob of self-described anti-fascists hurled bottles, lit smoke bombs, and screamed obscenities at attendees trying to enter the sold-out 1,900-seat event featuring comedian Rob Schneider and apologist Frank Turek.
Local reporters described the scene in blunt terms: blood on the pavement, tear gas in the air, and signs reading “TP belongs in the toilet” and “Karma’s a b***h.” One bright-red banner showed two hammer and sickles over the phrase “Drown Fascism in a Sea of Resistance,” credited to a campus group calling itself the Revolutionary Student Organization — whose website proudly displays a portrait of Mao Zedong.
It wasn’t just chaos. It was celebration. Two months to the day since Charlie Kirk’s assassination, leftist agitators were chanting “F**k your dead homie” — mocking a murdered man while pretending to fight for “justice.”
The mainstream outlets will frame it as another “clash between protesters and attendees.” But the truth is simpler: this was violence used as a veto. The Left no longer debates ideas; it tries to erase them. Universities, once bastions of free thought, now tolerate only speech that flatters their ideology. Everything else? “Hate speech” — and apparently, fair game for fireworks and fists.
Even with the chaos, TPUSA’s team called the night a success. “Despite Antifa thugs blocking our campus tour stop with tear gas, fireworks, and glass bottles, we had a PACKED HOUSE in the heart of deep-blue UC Berkeley,” said spokesperson Andrew Kolvet.
Let that sink in: a conservative event, packed wall-to-wall in Berkeley, under siege by mobs waving communist flags — and it still went on. That’s courage.
But don’t miss the darker takeaway. The chant — “F**k your dead homie” — is more than hatred. It’s permission. When one side laughs at murder, when they turn blood into a meme, the political violence we once thought unthinkable becomes acceptable. Normalized. Background noise.
If the Left’s idea of “resistance” is mocking the dead, they’ve already lost the moral high ground. And if this is what the most “educated” generation in America looks like, the real fascism isn’t on stage — it’s outside the doors, screaming through a megaphone.
Bottom Line: Berkeley didn’t just protest Charlie Kirk’s legacy. They danced on his grave — and proved his point. The free speech crisis in America isn’t coming. It’s here.

Fetterman Accidentally Tells the Truth About Obamacare
“Democrats designed those tax credits to expire.” Oops.
Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) had a rare moment of honesty on NPR this week — and it torpedoed the Democrats’ favorite shutdown talking point.
Asked about the Affordable Care Act subsidies at the center of last week’s funding fight, Fetterman admitted the obvious: Republicans didn’t kill them — Democrats did.
“Democrats designed those tax credits to expire at the end of this year,” he said. “That’s not something they’re taking away.”
Translation: The left built the ticking clock, then blamed Trump for the countdown. Republicans, meanwhile, said they were willing to discuss extending the credits — just not through another trillion-dollar spending bill.
It’s the political version of setting your house on fire, then demanding your neighbor pay for the rebuild — or else he “hates healthcare.”
Fetterman also admitted he’s not sure how President Trump will handle a vote to extend the subsidies — a quiet acknowledgment that this White House, not Schumer’s Senate, now drives the agenda.
Bottom Line: When even Fetterman’s saying it out loud, the spin’s dead. Democrats wrote the expiration clause — now they’re just angry someone finally read it.

The Democrats’ Descent: From “Progressive” to Pure Control
A historian warns — America’s left has gone full totalitarian.
Paul Gottfried doesn’t do clickbait. He’s an old-school European historian whose family fled Nazi Germany — which makes his latest warning all the more chilling. Writing this week, Gottfried says the Democratic Party has crossed a line: its methods now mirror the totalitarian movements it once claimed to oppose.
The comparison sounds dramatic — until you look around.
Democratic officials cheering riots, joking about assassinations, and shielding violent agitators from prosecution. In Virginia, voters just elevated Jay “Two Bullets” Jones, a man who once wished death on a Republican lawmaker’s family, to the post of attorney general. His victory speech? Cheered by party leaders who saw no problem with his record of open hate.
Gottfried’s point isn’t that Democrats are Nazis. It’s that their playbook rhymes — deceit, censorship, the destruction of shared institutions, the use of propaganda to demonize dissent. Only this time, he says, they have tools Hitler’s propagandists could’ve only dreamed of: corporate media, Big Tech, academia, and federal bureaucrats all marching in ideological lockstep.
And the right? Mostly stood by and watched. Years of “find common ground” rhetoric from conservative elites left the movement unprepared for what Gottfried calls a “subversive force bent on domination.” He argues that appeasement is over. It’s time to defund radical states, strip the administrative state of power, and rebuild election integrity from the ground up — paper ballots, ID laws, and real bipartisan oversight.
This isn’t about nostalgia for 1950s America. It’s about survival of constitutional order in 2025. “The moment demands moral clarity, not compromise,” Gottfried writes. “Treating Democrats as anything less than a threat will only hasten the day America wakes up a one-party state.”
Bottom Line: The historian who studied Europe’s darkest regimes now sees their reflection — in Washington. Ignore him at your own peril.

👉 Next drop: Sunday, 9 A.M. — Blueprint of Control
Every time we think the line can’t be crossed, it is. Every time the Left claims “love wins,” it’s followed by fists, fire, and censorship. What happened at Berkeley wasn’t an outlier — it’s the blueprint. The same ideology running our classrooms, our newsrooms, and our agencies now cheers violence as virtue.
America doesn’t need another commission or campus forum. It needs accountability — and the courage to say that evil, even when it wears a student badge, is still evil.
Truth is the only antidote to this madness. That’s why The Daily Briefing exists — to cut through the spin, call out the rot, and remind readers that decency and courage aren’t outdated. They’re urgent.

P.S. The Berkeley riot wasn’t just about Charlie Kirk — it was about silencing you. The mob didn’t chant “F**k your dead homie” because they hate one man. They chanted it because they hate what he represented: conviction without apology.
So let me ask you — do you think this was the tipping point? Or just another warning shot before something worse?
