A leftist comedian posted a video to TikTok suggesting someone “take one for the team” and kill President Donald Trump or right-hand man Elon Musk, later claiming the veiled death threats were merely a joke.
“Listen, all the Elon/Trump stuff is getting to a point, man…somebody’s gonna have to just throw their life away on this…Just kind of take one for the team,” Brooklyn-based comedian Darius Dinkins said in a viral TikTok video.
“Somebody’s just got to go in there and make history,” he said, adding, “You know who you are; just buck up and do your duty.”
Dinkins’ video was chronicled on X by @LibsofTikTok:
Musk reposted the video, commenting, “Everyone dies, but not everybody lives.”
The video sparked calls for the comedian to be investigated and arrested.
@FBI @DHSgov @SecretService He works part-time as a comedian & this company can probably tell you how to find him. He's been featured as a comedian for 800 lbs gorilla, I'm sure they know how to find him to prevent wasting time & money pic.twitter.com/a6yDWUzQ9G

This guy needs to be hunted down and placed in prison for inciting a terror attack.

Dinkins was also viciously dragged in the post’s comment section.

Genuinely thinks hes smart.
Looks like the kinda guy who punches himself in the face having a mental breakdown when he cant convince his girl not to leave him.
"BUT WERE MEANT TO BE TOGETHHERRRRR"
*SELF PUNCH*
Sadly, this is the idiot sentiment of nearly every person on the left. They are so low IQ and so brainwashed that the MSM has them believing they are in some sort of emergency of ethics in American society. Meanwhile, they defend pedophiles, award mass murderers and vote for…

"Somebody. Not me. I like my life. Somebody else. Somebody in dire straits. Is going to have to do my dirty work. Because I don't want to throw my life away. I like my life. I just want someone else whose life isn't as good as mine to throw theirs away".

The original video on TikTok has accumulated over 126K views and has amassed over 15K likes as of writing.
On Instagram, the comedian vowed to stand his ground against the political pressure, claiming the video constituted “comedy” and “art.”
Footage circulating on social media shows Dinkins performing another political assassination joke.

Threats of violence from the left against Musk and Trump have unfortunately become more frequent as the pair have partnered up to root out government fraud, waste, abuse and corruption.
Meanwhile, the threats follow two assassination attempts against Trump during the 2024 presidential campaign.
Time will tell whether the comedian’s video falls under protected free speech, or if he’ll be forced to issue a retraction for his incitement to violence.
