'How can you say that?' Reporters shocked as GOP lawmaker blames them for Kirk's death

Rep. Derrick Van Orden (R-WI) blamed reporters for the death of MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk, even though the shooting suspect was still at large.

The lawmaker lashed out at members of the media during a gaggle outside the Capitol on Thursday.

"Every single one of you here. You're at fault," Van Orden insisted. "You are responsible for this, because you are echoing the horrifically horrible political violent rhetoric produced by the Democrat Party."

"How can you say that when we don't even know who the shooter is?" one reporter asked.

"You know what, knock it off!" the lawmaker replied. "You are responsible for that assassination yesterday. You should be ashamed of yourself."

Van Orden walked away as one reporter asked about the assassinations of Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota.
