UnitedHealthcare fires woman over ‘Aww, they missed?’ comment on Trump assassination attempt
Fox News ^ | 04/28/2026 | Rachel del Guidice

UnitedHealthcare has fired a woman who expressed sadness in a TikTok video that President Donald Trump was not killed in the Saturday shooting during the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. In the video, she sarcastically asked, "Aww, they missed?"

"We're cooked as a country when my first reaction to hearing the news about Trump's attempt was, ‘It was probably fake,’" Alison King, who has reportedly deleted her LinkedIn account but was identified as a social media manager for UnitedHealthcare, said in the video.

"Like, immediately I was like, 'Oh, that wasn't real, probably fake,’" King said. "And the second was 'Aww, they missed? So happy they missed.’ Yeah, that's sad,’" King said sarcastically.

"That's when you know we're cooked," King added.

In a Tuesday statement to Fox News Digital, a spokesperson for UnitedHealthcare said, "Violence is never acceptable and any comments that suggest otherwise are in no way consistent with our mission and values. The person who made comments online about Saturday night’s incident at a Washington event where President Trump and many other political leaders were gathered is no longer employed by the company."

Fox News Digital reached out to King, but she declined to comment.

Someone remind this animal how happy the left was when a fellow United Health Care employee was shot dead in the street.

Or maybe that made her happy too!?

Sort of off-topic, but why is it that so many social media types post video shot in their cars?

Don’t you have homes?

This goes back at least as far as film critic Pauline Kael supposedly remarking that she couldn’t believe Nixon won in ‘72 because she didn’t know anyone who voted for him. These people all live in a bubble of like-minded people who all think the same, or they’re ostracized if they don’t. Things haven’t changed in that regard. At all.

Absolutely.

It’s sick that two professions that touch peoples’ lives in a very impactful way, are littered with these libtards.
