THIS!!! Greg Gutfeld Just DESTROYED Jessica Tarlov for Making the “Both Sides” Argument About Charlie Kirk’s K!lling


Fox News’ The Five exploded into chaos on Monday night (September 15) when Greg Gutfeld unleashed a furious tirade against his co-host Jessica Tarlov, after she dared to suggest that political violence happens on both sides of the aisle. The panel was discussing the shocking fatal sh00ting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, and the arrest of alleged sh00ter Tyler Robinson, when Gutfeld made it clear: for him, this violence is a one-sided story.

“We don’t need more information,” Gutfeld snapped, his voice rising. “What is interesting here is why this is only happening on the left and not the right? That’s all we need to know.”

Tarlov, refusing to back down, interrupted with a pointed question: “What about Melissa Hortman?” referencing the Minnesota State Representative k!lled alongside her husband in June—a crime that shocked the local community but received little national attention.

Gutfeld’s response was instant and explosive. “Did you know her name before it happened? None of us did. None of us were spending every single day talking about Melissa Hortman. I never heard of her until after she di3d.”
“So she doesn’t matter?” Tarlov sh0t back.

“Don’t play that bull**** with me,” Gutfeld fired, visibly angry. “What I’m saying is there was no demonization amplification about that woman before she di3d. It was a specific crime against her by somebody that knew her. Then you’ll bring up Josh Shapiro, but you will not bring up that that was a pro-Palestine person. The fact of the matter is the both sides argument not only doesn’t fly, we don’t care. We don’t care about your both sides argument. That s*** is d3ad.”

The segment instantly went viral, with social media erupting in debate.
Some viewers praised Gutfeld for “calling out the nonsense” and refusing to let Tarlov “play the victim card.” Others slammed him for dismissing the d3aths of Democratic victims and accused Fox News of “selective outrage.”

One X user wrote:

“Fox News’ dismissal of Melissa Hortman’s June 2025 m::urder—alongside her husband’s k!lling and the sh00ting of Sen. John Hoffman and his wife—exposes their selective outrage, mirroring Trump’s own silence on Democratic victims while amplifying Charlie Kirk’s recent campus slaying.”

Another viewer commented:

“So because no one on Fox ‘News’ mentioned her before she was m::urdered by a trump supporter her d3ath doesn’t matter??????”

And another:

“Go Jessica!”

But Gutfeld’s fiery rhetoric wasn’t just controversial—it was misleading.

espite Utah Governor Spencer Cox claiming Robinson had been “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology,” Robinson himself has not spoken publicly about his motives or political beliefs.

In fact, according to a January 2024 study from the National Institute of Justice, “the number of far-right attacks continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism” in the United States. Data from the Anti-Defamation League’s Center on Extremism shows right-wing extremism accounted for around 85% of extremist-related fatalities since 2016.

America’s Debate Over Political Violence Is More Polarized Than Ever

The Five’s fiery exchange is just the latest example of how the debate over political violence has become a battleground for partisan outrage.
Gutfeld’s refusal to acknowledge “both sides” and Tarlov’s insistence on balance reflect a nation increasingly unable to agree on basic facts—or even mourn tragedy together.

As clips of the segment continue to trend online, one thing is clear: the middle ground in American discourse is vanishing fast.
And in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s k!lling, the fight over who gets to grieve—and who gets to be heard—has never been more intense.
