Popular conservative creator Matt Walsh called for Attorney General Pam Bondi to be fired immediately after she said businesses must allow fans of Charlie Kirk to print posters in honor of the slain Turning Point USA founder.
Walsh said that comment, to go along with Bondi’s recent statement on targeting “hate speech” against Kirk, as well as her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case, make it clear President Donald Trump needs to fire her.
“Get rid of her. Today. This is insane,” Walsh posted on X on Tuesday, in response to a clip of Bondi talking about companies not being able to “discriminate” against Kirk’s fans.
He continued: “Conservatives have fought for decades for the right to refuse service to anyone. We won that fight. Now Pam Bondi wants to roll it all back for no reason. The employee who didn’t print the flyer was already fired by his employer. This stuff is being handled successfully through free speech and free markets. This is totally gratuitous and pointless. We need the AG focused on bringing down the left wing terror cells, not prosecuting Office Depot for God’s sake.”
Walsh is referring to Office Depot recently firing an employee who refused to print posters honoring Kirk.
The Daily Wire star’s X post above came less than thirty minutes after he said Bondi has been a train wreck when it comes to key issues.
“Between this ‘hate speech nonsense and Epstein, Pam Bondi has committed two of the most egregious errors we’ve ever seen from an Attorney General,” Walsh posted. “How many seismic fuck ups will Trump permit her before he cuts her loose? Is this a ten strikes and you’re out deal or what?”
That comment follows Bondi saying criticism of Kirk after his murder last week in Utah costitutes “hate speech,” and is not protected by the First Amendment.
“There’s free speech and then there’s hate speech, and there is no place, especially now, especially after what happened to Charlie, [for it] in our society,” Bondi said in an interview with former White House official Katie Miller.
Bondi added: “We will absolutely target you, go after you if you are targeting anyone with hate speech, anything, and that’s across the aisle.”
The AG’s comments on hate speech were mocked by both right and left wingers. Fox News senior political analyst Brit Hume, for example, said Bondi “should know” whatever someone deems hate speech is protected by the Constitution, no matter how vile it is.
Walsh, meanwhile, has said he is happy to see the “barbarians” who have cheered the killing of Kirk being fired. “Leftists Are Getting Fired Right and Left for Celebrating Charlie Kirk’s Death. Good,” one video posted on his YouTube account, which has 3.3 million subscribers, was titled on Tuesday.

Walsh is right. I don’t think Charlie Kirk would support the government controlling the speech of any company for any reason. He was against the colleges and the government controlling his speech and if he were running a college or in the government he would not ban his opponents speech.
Which instance are you talking about?
Two Things:
(1) Either Bondi is a Moron
(2) Or she thinks we’re Morons
Prosecuting so-called “hate-speech” is un-Constitutional as I understand it; as is compelling private enterprise to do “the right thing”
He said on Charlie Kirk’s show this morning that anybody can say what they want about Charlie Kirk or anyone else. He went a lot further than a poster dispute.

Too funny. Just on this speech issue, her statements oppose the 1st Amendment. Is that OK with you? And pressuring a private business to kowtow? Are you a Conservative?
This is not even going back to so much that is questionable about her decisions from the beginning, nor does it consider her Fla manipulation of the Trevon Martin fiasco. And of course her special relationship with Suzie Wiles.
Cool story broh. What is the legal definition of “hate” speech?
Goldwater and other conservatives lost the right to refuse service to anyone in 1964. I'm not sure what is meant “we won that fight.”
Given the magnitude of President Trump’s competence, and the loyalty and the allegiance we owe him for his massive sacrifices, the bar for criticizing anyone in his cabinet should be much higher.
I don’t think any patriot capable of careful thinking would be so ready to call for getting rid of Pam Bondi. It just doesn’t make sense, and all our enemies are jumping all over it.
Because our enemies are afraid of Pam Bondi!
Nah, he’s not stupid. Just misguided purist.
Think Rand Paul or anyone wears a bowtie on TV.
Seems draconian. Consider the source. “Hate speech” is protected, not in need of government intervention. There are ways to mete out consequences without invoking courts.
Matt Walsh is wrong.
The fight we won was over "creative" service, not routine transactional service.
A baker cannot be compelled to design and bake a "gay wedding" cake, but that same baker cannot refuse to sell donuts or a fresh-baked loaf of rye bread to a gay person.
It's the same issue here: a printer might refuse to design a poster for a Charlie Kirk vigil, but that same printer cannot refuse to mass reproduce flyers that a customer brought to be printed.
Otherwise, banks can refuse to open accounts for a conservative simply because of their beliefs.

Can we trade matt for charlie ?
“Hate Speach” and “Propaganda”
Are Both nebulous terms. Defined by whoever at that instant.
All advertising, by its nature IS Propaganda.
Either you have/ believe in/ Free Speech, or you don’t.
The Bigger issue, as I see it is you have the US AG, A $10k/ hr Lawyer, getting distracted from important functions, to weigh in where 2 office depot Asshats, made a wrong choice, and have already been fired.
Is the US AG going to make them even MOAR Fired?
How much do you think Pam Bondi knows that you don’t know?
I’m referring to things like intelligence and counterintelligence.
Remember the bakers who didn’t want to bake a wedding cake for a gay couple?
My issue here is that it was some clerk who didn’t give a damn about the company losing half their customers over the print job. If an owner wants to say no, fine.
Politics is not a protected class. So, as tasteless as the refusal may be, there is no Constitutional reason for the DOJ to be involved. Seems like the AG of the US would understand that.
The stupidity of Matt Walsh can be clearly seen in his mental deficit.
His mental deficit causes failure to understand context.
Context includes the view from where Pam Bondi sits. Intelligence and espionage.
Since we can’t know her view fully, we resort to trust in her and in Trump. For Walsh to miss this is low IQ.
We don’t disagree, it was not the owner’s decision, it was the worker’s. And the owner corrected the behavior. More proof we don’t need the gov’t telling private businesses what services they must provide.
They are not afraid of Bondi. They jumped on it because they can yell hypocrisy and make Trump look bad.
Susie Wiles is tight with Bondi and that is why she skates with POTUS.
I do hope she proves us wrong because I would be happy to apologize if she starts delivering.
Thank goodness for Harmeet Dhillon.
