PANIC MODE: Stephen King Scrambles to Apologize After Realizing His Defamatory Smear Justifying Charlie Kirk’s Assassination Could Cost Him MILLIONS in Court

Infamous liberal author Stephen King is now in full-blown damage control after unleashing a vile, baseless smear against Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk in the wake of his shocking assassination.

After the horrific news broke of Charlie Kirk’s execution-style slaying outside his Phoenix home, allegedly at the hands of a deranged leftist radical, King fired off his tweet like a deranged clown from one of his own bad novels: “He advocated stoning gays to death. Just sayin’.”

No fact-check. No context. Just pure, unadulterated blood libel designed to demonize a man who dedicated his life to fighting the woke mob and defending Christian values.

The backlash was swift and savage. Senator Ted Cruz slammed King as a “horrible, evil, twisted liar.”

He added, “No, he did not. Your party—which you shamelessly shilled for—sent $100 billion to the Ayatollah… who does routinely murder homosexuals. Why are you so dishonest & filled with hate?”

Sebastian Gorka demanded King prove his claims.

“When? You decrepit liar. Show us when Charlie ever said that. When you can’t, publicly apologize to his widow Erika, and Charlie’s children. But you can’t, can you, because you are a soulless ghoul who believed pouring your perversions into “novels” would help you. It won’t,” Gorka wrote.

Senator Mike Lee weighed in forcefully, urging accountability.

“Please share if you agree that the estate of Charlie Kirk should sue Stephen King for defamation over this heinously false accusation He’s crossed a line It will prove costly,” Lee wrote.

After intense backlash, King is now scrambling to clean up the mess. He deleted the post and has begun issuing desperate apologies.

“I apologize for saying Charlie Kirk advocated stoning gays. What he actually demonstrated was how some people cherry-pick Biblical passages,” King wrote.

King added, “The horrible, evil, twisted liar apologizes. This is what I get for reading something on Twitter w/o fact-checking. Won’t happen again.”
