Privileged upbringing of liberal college student who mocked Charlie Kirk's death

Tunnel Wall 10/30: Someone Bought the UTSA Student’s Domain Name After She Read a Giddy Poem Celebrating Charlie Kirk’s Murder, Now Anyone Who Googles Her Will Know Who They Are Dealing With

UK Daily Mail

"'It's a BYOE, you know, vaccines included. S***'s free, see y'all there. That's all,' she said as she turned toward Collins and smiled. 'Are you happy with yourself now?' he asked her. 'Baby, I'm thrilled,' she responded before carrying on with her neck brace line."

"The college student who said she was 'thrilled' to mock Charlie Kirk's death before calling another conservative activist 'brave' for not protecting his neck attended a $30,000-a-year all-girls prep school and is the daughter of a Brazilian woman, the Daily Mail can reveal. 

"Isabela Casahuga Lemgruber, 19, appeared to threaten political commentator Christian Collins during an event Collins hosted at her school, the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA), last month, according to records reviewed by The Dallas Express.

"Lemgruber, a former debate team member at St Agnes Academy in Houston, shared a handwritten poem that mimicked 'Twas the Night Before Christmas' while detailing Kirk's death, according to a video Collins shared on Wednesday. 

"Kirk, 31, was fatally shot in the neck in September 2025 while speaking at a public event at Utah Valley University. His death, which was filmed in real time, has been followed by hateful rhetoric ever since. 

"Collins posted another video on Thursday identifying Isabela and stating that she viewed his Instagram story after he posted the clip of her.  

"Before she started at the university, her former high school shared an announcement in a since-deleted social media post that congratulated her. The school also shared that she's a freshman studying international relations and diplomacy at UTSA." . . .

About her parents:   . . . " According to her biography, Paula 'was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is married to a Spaniard and has two beautiful daughters who are citizens of the world."

"Over the past two decades, the family has moved to more than nine cities across five countries and settled in Houston five years ago, the description read. 

"Paula's LinkedIn also stated that she worked for several companies in Brazil before relocating to the US. The page was deactivated on Thursday afternoon. 

"Isabela's father, Guillem Casahuga, is a partner at Arthur Little - an international management consulting firm, according to the company's website. " . . .

Isa Casahuga Turns Charlie Kirk’s Assassination Into A Campus Mockery   "There are lines that should never be crossed in a free society. Mocking the assassination of a political opponent is one of them. On October 27, 2026, at a Turning Point USA event at the University of Texas at San Antonio, a student named Isabela Casahuga-Lemgruber a.k.a. Isa Casahuga crossed that line in public and on camera. She recited a parody of “The Night Before Christmas” that turned the murder of Charlie Kirk into the central joke, then directed a remark about unprotected necks at a conservative speaker standing in front of her.

"Kirk was shot in the neck and killed on September 10, 2025, while speaking at Utah Valley University. He was 31 years old. He left behind a wife, children, and a movement that had made him one of the most effective conservative organizers of his generation. Nearly fourteen months later, his death became material for a campus performance that treated the fatal wound as entertainment.

"This was not edgy satire. It was a public celebration of political violence dressed up as poetry. Americans who still believe that murder is not a punchline should treat the episode with the seriousness it deserves." . . .  Full article...

The Tyranny of #BeNice

 The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  

"[W]hat they really care about is a kind of do-gooder, feel-good tyranny that they can ram down the throats of everyone else."

In case of riots, I'm good.

"On the eve of the midterm elections, one searches in vain for a coherent expression of the ideology that animates the widely predicted “blue wave” that will roll over the country, bringing about Democrat Party dominance of every branch save the presidency. To the extent that foundational beliefs can be detected, they posit that Republicans, particularly, but not exclusively, President Trump are “not nice,” while the Democrats, even the Mamdani radicals, are the party of “nice.”

"The “#BeNice” movement has been a long time in coming, but it’s now firmly ensconced across the left. All manner of objectively horrible proposals gain favor when adopted by the party of “nice.” Its adherents bask in their good intentions. They look in the mirror each morning and exclaim, “Oh, what a nice person I am,” and they know that all their like-minded friends are similarly “nice.” This, it seems, is the unifying philosophy, and “be nice” is their secularized version of the Second Great Commandment. (RELATED: The High Priests of Performative Goodness)

"Many of them, of course, claim to be Christians. Indeed, they frequently claim to be the best Christians, superior in every way to their more conservative brethren in Christ. And they have weaponized “love thy neighbor as thyself,” turning it into a cudgel with which to beat those who disagree with their several pieties, such as “no person is illegal, or “my body, my choice.” (RELATED: James Talarico’s Strange Religion)

"In this, sadly, they’re backed by a great many of their pastors. I have a former friend, a decent woman, but one fully in thrall to “be nice” Christianity. Her local pastor, evidently, is a font of “be nice” platitudes, and not just those of his own creation. He apparently serves as a conduit linking his parishioners to all manner of self-righteous “love thy neighbor” memes, which my former friend dutifully posts to her Facebook page.

"For anyone who cares to compare, these memes line up almost perfectly with the political messaging of the Democrat Party and its counterparts in Western Europe. “Be nice,” it seems, has become an international phenomenon, along with “we care,” as in, “we care more than those horribly benighted conservatives.” We care about the environment, we care about peace, we care about human rights — and so it goes, ad infinitum and ad nauseam. (RELATED: Paris Is Burning. Is Washington Next?)" . . .

Perhaps then it’s time we start fighting back against the “be nice” fanatics, starting with the words they enjoy throwing around so carelessly. Tell these benighted souls that “genocide” is what radical Islamists wish to do to Jews and, increasingly, to Christians — and not the way they would have it. “Love your neighbor” should extend to those neighbors who simply wish to still live in the culture handed down by their ancestors. “Reproductive freedom” should be replaced with “support for infanticide.”

El-Sayed’s Campaign Attack Dog Hasan Piker Compares Jewish Voters to Ku Klux Klan

Geller Report

"By G-d, Democrats are running on raging Jew hatred ahead on Tuesday’s elections.

"Abdul El-Sayed has not criticized Piker himself." . . .

Full content here.

"The area’s representative in the Michigan state government, Noah Arbit, said: “This kind of insane, unhinged, repugnant and hateful rhetoric threatens every single one of us in West Bloomfield. It is this kind of rhetoric that radicalizes people and incites them to violence.”

"One of Jewish voters’ primary complaints about El-Sayed is that he equivocated about an attempted terror attack on a synagogue and preschool in West Bloomfield by stating, “Hurt people hurt people.”

"El-Sayed came under fire earlier this week when Piker’s uncle, Cenk Uygur, another prominent media figure, posted a campaign advertisement for El-Sayed that blamed Israel for food prices in the US. His campaign distanced itself from the message." . . .  More.

UPDATE: Hasan Piker Triples Down on the Hate, Compares Jewish Voters to KKK – RedState   

. . . "Toxic is too soft a word for this guy. He also kept noting that he’ll probably get action on social media for his diatribe, which seemed to excite him to no end. Is that the real purpose of his incendiary circus act?

In its heyday, the KKK was known for vicious discrimination against black people and its support for lynchings. I’m pretty sure there are very few, if any, American suburban Jews who have been accused of such atrocities.

It was too much for even another poisonous Democrat politician, Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), who’s been going around bragging that she’s going to attack anyone who worked for the Trump administration with lawfare and make their lives miserable."

UNCOVERED! The Oct. 7th Report Hamas Tried To Hide!

Some of the comments to this video:

"I still cannot comprehend such atrocities. The brutality was purely demonic. How can any normal human beings to be silent about it???? I am not Jewish, I am not Hebrew, I am Christian and I find it difficult to be like my Lord Jesus and forgive these monsters. It was demonic. Indeed at this stage humanity needs to come closer to God and pray, pray, pray. We do not battle with just flesh and blood but with the invisible principalities, powers and authorities of the dark realms. May God Almighty have mercy on us all."

'So angry that so many people and the media deny this happened. Yet the horror was known soon after the atrocities of October 7th. That Western women deny this happened is abhorrent. That these same women are still protesting and wearing keffiyehs on our streets is a travesty and morally bankrupt. Shame on every female in particular who denies these atrocities happened. God rest all the Israeli women who were subjected to savagery and then death and the Israeli men who tried to defend them and were, too, slaughtered. Am Yisrael Chai '

This May Be the WNBA's Most Despicable Act Yet

 RedState  

"Imagine being a 10-year-old girl, invited to sing your country's National Anthem on one of the biggest stages in women's sports, only to look out and see that the very athletes you're performing for couldn't be bothered to stick around. Some role models, eh?"

"The WNBA's PR nightmare continued apace Thursday as the Atlanta Dream and Golden State Valkyries faced off for Game 6 of the WNBA Finals at Atlanta's State Farm Arena.

As is their appalling custom, the players left the court after their pre-game warm-ups – and just as the first strains of The Star-Spangled Banner started to play – in what they apparently must think is a brave act of solidarity and much-needed public rebuke of the country that has empowered them to reach the highest echelons of professional sport.

Not a humble, grateful bunch of gals, these WNBA players. 

This time, however, the optics were even worse than usual, as the players stormed from the court and turned their backs on the 10-year-old girl singing the National Anthem. Obviously, even having a little girl sing the anthem wasn't enough to get these players to stick around for two minutes.

So much for being role models to the next generation of young women.

Hamas can murder all Israelis; the left will still love them

'It's Wrong': Nancy Pelosi Stuns Democrats, Throws Down on El-Sayed Ahead of Michigan Election   . . . "It’s a chessboard calculation based on demographics, at the end of the day, not a moral commitment to treating people the right way — that is to say, equally regardless of race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, or ethnicity.

The modern Democrat Party doesn’t believe in any of that. Don’t let them fool you.

If the Left’s hatred of the “All Lives Matter” response during the BLM riots didn’t convince you that these aren’t actually “liberals” that we are dealing with, nothing will.

So, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that the Democrat Party is turning against Jewish Americans after it abandoned Asian Americans and has flat-out demonized white Americans according to their imaginary “privilege.”

As RedState's Nick Arama reported Monday, Rebellion PAC, a political organization co-founded by The Young Turks commentator Cenk Uygur, released an advertisement portraying American grocery shoppers blaming U.S. support for Israel for their inability to afford food.

The advertisement features a couple discussing grocery prices before the woman tells her partner:

"Honey, you're going to have to put those eggs back. They like eggs, but we have to set that $7 aside for killing Palestinians." . . .

People Call Out Michigan Senate Ad As Anti-Semitic in Huge Backlash – RedState  . . . "There's been such a backlash that the El-Sayed campaign has issued a statement trying to distance itself from it, stating that the ad was "not affiliated in any way with the Abdul for Senate campaign.”

“'No one speaks for Abdul but himself and his campaign,” the campaign claimed. 

"Democrats for Mike Rogers called the campaign’s response “absolutely pathetic.”

“Abdul can’t condemn this disgusting antisemitic ad,” they emphasized. “It’s disqualifying.”

"There's another twist in this whole saga. Did you notice in the ad they spoke about the price of eggs? But eggs are cheap now, far cheaper than they were under Joe Biden, in part, because of the efforts of the Trump administration. They're $1.67/dozen in my area in Texas. Also, bananas are pretty cheap. 

"There's a reason that egg number may be off - because the part of the ad with the couple in the grocery store is a  recycled ad  from Cenk Uygur's failed presidential campaign in 2024.  Who was in the Oval Office then? Hint: not a Republican. Now, the ad was just wrong to begin with, but it's hilarious that the original ad was bashing the prices under Joe Biden." "

Rebranding – Medical Schools Playing Hide The DEI Ball (Our Report)

 Legal Insurrection   

CriticalRace.org Report: “The schools, particularly the medical schools, are hanging on to DEI, like survivors on a shipwreck, and they’re hoping for a rescue…. They’re not giving it up.” 

. . . "Medical schools across the U.S. are rebranding their diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) departments as the Trump administration increases scrutiny of DEI programs in higher education and medicine, according to a new report by CriticalRace.org.

"The report, which examined six medical schools, found that although the departments have been renamed, their programming has remained largely unchanged, despite some softened language since President Donald Trump began his second term in 2025.

“'The rebranding is not really meaningful in a sense,” William Jacobson, a Cornell Law School professor and founder of the Equal Protection Project, told Fox News Digital. “The programming hasn’t changed and a lot of the examples, and I think there’s a couple in our report, they simply shift programs over to a different department or under a different name, but the programming hasn’t really changed.”

"The medical schools profiled in the report include Drexel University College of Medicine, Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell, Saint Louis University School of Medicine, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University, and the University of Nevada-Reno School of Medicine (UNR Med). CriticalRace.org’s report notes that the schools often used terms such as “belonging,” “engagement” and “excellence” in names of what appeared to be rebranded DEI departments." . . .

. . . “The federal and state governments can help, but we need a long-term effort over many years to change the culture on campuses to a culture of equality, not a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion,” he told Fox News Digital." . . .

“Alaskan Voters Need to Know”: Times Alleges Peltola Campaign Conspired to Confuse Alaskan Voters With Decoy “Dan Sullivans” – JONATHAN TURLEY

"The New York Times on Wednesday published a blockbuster story claiming that multiple former staffers on the campaign of Alaska Democratic Senatorial nominee Mary Peltola implicated her and others in the effort to confuse voters with decoy “Dan Sullivan” candidates. Peltola has long denied knowledge or involvement, but the Times reported that she was allegedly aware of the effort that also involved campaign officials, its lawyers and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. Rounding out the array of “usual suspects” is the Marc Elias Group. Elias was involved in the Russian hoax and has been previously sanctioned in court. The Times reported that Peltola’s campaign manager told it that “Alaskan voters need to know.”

"Democrats like Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) immediately ran out to do damage control and depict Rio as a “disgruntled former employee.” The problem is that it is not just Rio. The Times referenced multiple campaign workers and brought receipts.

"The Times names Democratic operative Jerid Kurtz, who allegedly worked with and communicated with Rios and others on the campaign, including Anton McParland, who at the time was Ms. Peltola’s chief of staff. It also states that campaign lawyers were involved in this despicable dirty trick to get voters to cast mistaken ballots.

"The Times reported that the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, chaired by Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), was aware of and involved in the effort. The effort was allegedly called  “a ballot composition” project and Kurtz was allegedly paid through a pro-Peltola fund.

"The Times details the effort to conceal it. For example, the paper reports:" . . . More.

NY Times Exposes Talarico’s Fake Story About Overcrowded Classrooms

 Legal Insurrection 

"I have trouble believing that this guy could win in Texas but Paxton got pretty well beat-up politically several years back and spent several years in court." 

"James Talarico has a compelling story about teaching classrooms with 45 students during a two-year stint as a Teach For America educator, but even the New York Times is poking holes in it.

“'When I entered the classroom, the Texas Legislature had just gutted the public education budget by $5 billion — so I had 45 kids in one classroom,” Talarico claims on his website. “There weren’t enough desks for everyone, so some of my students sat on the air conditioning unit.”

“'In the richest country on the planet, I knew that was unacceptable,” he says.

"It is a compelling claim – Republicans cut public education funding so these students suffer. Talarico certainly thinks it will resonate with voters, which is why he keeps repeating it.

“'At one point, I had 45 students in one classroom,” he said. “There weren’t enough desks for all those kids, so I had students sitting on the air-conditioning unit in the wealthiest country in human history — in the 21st century, children sitting on the air-conditioning unit.”

"But the NY Times says the story may not be true.

"The Times reported:

Documents from the Texas Education Agency indicate that the most students ever assigned to a class period that Mr. Talarico taught was 30, with most of his classes ranging in size from 22 to 27 students. In the interviews with Mr. Talarico’s former students and colleagues, they recalled classrooms where every desk was occupied, but not crowding to the point where students were sitting on air-conditioners" . . ..

Why socialism doesn’t work — Adam Smith

 Adam Smith Institute   

"Tyranny is not an accidental by-product of Socialism; it lies at its very core. It is in its DNA." 

"Socialism, when implemented as a political and economic system, has historically led to tyranny and persecution for several reasons:

"Socialism typically abolishes or severely restricts private property. Without private ownership and the ability to reap personal rewards from effort and innovation, productivity declines, and economic stagnation follows.

"Government-controlled economies lack the flexibility and efficiency of market-driven ones. Central planners cannot account for the complexity of supply and demand, leading to shortages, waste, and inefficiency.

"Socialism often requires government control over many aspects of life, including employment, wages, production, and even personal choices. This erodes individual freedoms and forces conformity to state dictates. 

"When the state controls the economy, political elites gain enormous power over resources and wealth. This leads to corruption, as those in power use their position to enrich themselves while suppressing dissent. 

"Because socialism requires force to implement and maintain, it frequently leads to political repression. Those who oppose the government’s policies, whether intellectuals, business owners, or ordinary citizens, are often persecuted, imprisoned, or silenced. They are even sometimes killed.

"Socialist policies tend to create economic stagnation, as seen in the Soviet Union, Maoist China, Venezuela, and other examples. Without competition or incentives, innovation slows, industries collapse, and poverty spreads.

"Socialism thrives on class struggle, pitting groups against each other (e.g. workers vs. bosses). This fosters resentment and division, leading to societal instability and often violent crackdowns by the state.

"In extreme cases, socialist regimes have led to mass starvation (e.g. the Holodomor in Ukraine, Mao’s Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution) as government policies disrupt food production and distribution. Human rights abuses, including forced labour camps and mass executions, have been common in socialist states.

"Free markets drive innovation through competition and entrepreneurship. Under socialism, state-run industries lack incentives to improve, leading to technological and economic stagnation. 

"Because Socialism requires extensive government control, it naturally expands state power at the expense of individual rights. This often results in authoritarian rule, as seen in the Soviet Union, China, North Korea, Cuba, and Venezuela.

"Historically, socialist experiments have resulted in oppression and economic ruin rather than prosperity and freedom. Its supporters say these countries never practised Socialism, but they said they did and thought they did and did what they did in its name. Whatever the theory of Socialism might say, it killed 100 million people and ruined the lives of many more.

"Tyranny is not an accidental by-product of Socialism; it lies at its very core. It is in its DNA."

Obama defends Omar and Abdul

 Don Surber

"The rest of his party quietly abandons her because she broke immigration law"

"The New York Times reported, “Ilhan Omar Investigation Involves New Scrutiny of Long-Disputed Marriage.

"“Several current and former law enforcement officials said an Obama-era investigation found some evidence that Ms. Omar had entered into a sham marriage with a man suspected of being her brother.”

"That’s the signal to the communists to drop her like the radioactive booger she is. NYT admitted the conspiracy theory was right.

"This explains the tepid response by the freaks in the freaker’s party to the FBI’s early morning raid on her home in DC.

"Democrats got good use out of her but she’s disposable. She’ll resign—Democrats may even expel her—and be replaced in a few months by another Somali in a special election.

"Fox reported, “A U.S. attorney in Minnesota, appointed by then-President Joe Biden, eventually shut down the probe in 2021, a source familiar with the matter told Fox News Digital.

"“Now, the issue has been thrust back into the spotlight as part of a new federal investigation into the Somali-born congresswoman, part of which centers on whether she or her father committed immigration fraud on her application to become a U.S. citizen.”

"The story continued, “Despite his own administration’s investigation into Omar at the time she was running for the Minnesota House, Obama condemned the renewed probe, which included a Homeland Security Investigations raid on her Washington, D.C. home on Oct. 12. Federal authorities confiscated her passport, personal phone and computer in the raid.” . . .

. . . So much for no one is above the law.

We know that future presidents will use lawfare to bankrupt political because that is exactly what Obama’s puppet Joe Biden did as he used the FBI, New York’s attorney general and a couple of local prosecutors to hound Trump and his supporters.

We also know that left-wing activist groups in the DC area are training people to get on juries and sabotage justice. House Oversight Chairman James Comer has promised hearings on the efforts to turn juries into little Judge Boasbergs who ignore the facts and the law.

Omar should be toast but DC juries and federal judges could spare her. No excitement without an indictment, but the New York Times story shows Democrats are through with her."    More.

Opinion: Obama's appalling new low has tipped the election on its head   "And we thought Michelle was the sellout.

"In endorsing Abdul El-Sayed at a Detroit rally on Saturday, Barack Obama has done the unthinkable.

"Yes, the one-time kingmaker of the Democratic Party has begun losing his own – and it's symbolic of the absolute chaos engulfing the party.

"The mainstream media would have us believe that it's Donald Trump and MAGA on the ropes.

"But little attention is paid to the pandemonium on the left, from Congresswoman Ilhan Omar to streamer Hasan Piker to twice-failed Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, who is weighing another White House run in 2028 despite the party begging her not to.

"At the moment, it's El-Sayed – and Obama's backing of him – that's causing the most heat." . . .

"Obama, fresh off castigating black male voters in 2024 for refusing to back Kamala, outright accusing them of misogyny – 'Part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren't feeling the idea of having a woman as president' – is now implying that Dems reluctant to vote for El-Sayed are religious bigots."
