“But keep mugging to the camera,” he said in another deleted post.

According to the New York Post, Olbermann was “responding to a tweet from Jennings reacting to ABC reinstating late-night host Jimmy Kimmel, after he was pulled off the air for offensive comments related to conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s assassination.”

“Now we get the fascists off real TV. That’d mean your career is next, Jennings. Send a tape to Real America’s Voice,” Olbermann posted in that thread, a possible clarification of what he meant.

Olbermann’s post comes less than a week after he suggested conservative activist Charlie Kirk is burning in hell following his assassination.

Olbermann’s threatening language toward Jennings represents an alarming escalation of left-wing hostility toward conservative media figures.

The former ESPN anchor’s decision to delete his threatening posts suggests he understood their inappropriate and potentially illegal nature.

Jennings’ decision to tag FBI Director Kash Patel shows the serious nature of these threats in the current political climate.

The timing of Olbermann’s threat, coming after Kimmel’s reinstatement, reveals his frustration with any conservative presence on mainstream television.

His previous comments about Kirk “burning in hell” demonstrate a pattern of celebrating violence against conservatives.

Olbermann’s use of profanity and threatening language shows the complete breakdown of civil discourse on the left.

The fact that these threats came from a former major network personality highlights how mainstream liberal figures openly advocate violence.

Jennings represents one of the few conservative voices on CNN, making him a target for leftist rage.

Olbermann’s call to get “fascists off real TV” shows his desire to completely eliminate conservative viewpoints from mainstream media.

The threatening posts reveal how the left views any conservative success, even Jennings’ continued employment, as intolerable.

His suggestion that Jennings should work for “Real America’s Voice” shows contempt for conservative media outlets.

The deleted nature of the posts indicates Olbermann knew he crossed a line but still felt compelled to make the threats.

This incident demonstrates how Charlie Kirk’s assassination has emboldened leftist extremists to threaten other conservatives.

Olbermann’s behavior validates concerns about escalating left-wing violence against conservative figures.

The former anchor’s threats should result in serious consequences, including potential federal investigation.

His pattern of celebrating conservative deaths and threatening conservative journalists shows dangerous radicalization.

The incident exposes how supposedly mainstream liberal media figures now openly advocate violence and intimidation.

Jennings’ calm response by simply sharing screenshots and tagging law enforcement shows appropriate professionalism.

This threat represents exactly the kind of escalating rhetoric that led to Kirk’s assassination.

Olbermann’s behavior proves that the left views conservative media presence as grounds for threats and intimidation.
