A giddy progressive podcaster learned the hard way that even when Democrats win elections, celebrating the assassination of a conservative is revolting to mainstream Americans.
Two days after the Democrats swept the midterms, the leftist hosts of the “I’ve Had It” podcast decided to celebrate by reveling in their hatred for conservatives, according to Breitbart.
During an episode titled “Drinking MAGA Tears,” host Jennifer Welch and co-host Angie Sullivan amused themselves by mocking conservatives’ positions on abortion, transgender issues, and vaccines.
Then it was time to celebrate the September 2025 assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk by reading a post that glorified violence.
“We’re digging up Charlie Kirk and doing it again,” Welch read.

Then came giggles amid the smug contemplated murder.
The “I’ve Had It” podcast has about 3 million listeners a month and about 150 million views a month on YouTube.
But at least it has advertisers who understand that political assassination is not a punchline.
As backlash over the comments grew, Cash App, Chewy, Boll & Branch, and Lola Blankets all said they would stop sponsoring “I’ve Had It.”
After advertisers pulled back, the podcast said it had apologized — and in what it claimed was an attempt to make amends, donated cash to the gun control group Everytown for Gun Safety.
However, as Mediaite noted, the podcast has peddled hate directed at Kirk and his widow, Erika Kirk, for which no apology has been provided.
“Erika Kirk, no, I do not regret it, and oftentimes when I see [what I’ve said], I don’t think I go far enough,” Welch said in September.
“Erika Kirk and Charlie Kirk peddled racism, homophobia, [and] she has recently been talking about ‘white male men’ and… her message to women is to have children even if you can’t afford them,” she said.
