Oh no, OMFG no, OH SWEET BABY JESUS IN THE MANGER, the Emmys didn't give a shout out to Saint Chuck.

The event mainly dodged politics and avoided Kirk's name, Politico reports.

And MAGA wasn't happy.

“The Emmys made ZERO reference to Charlie Kirk who was assassinated... This is the Hollywood left,” a user on X with more than 36,000 followers wrote.

Another conservative voice on X called Hollywood "evil" and "a joke," saying "it ignored a political voice with a major media presence who was gunned down just 5 days earlier."

He was a nobody. Most Americans didn’t even know who the hell he was.

... to have something to watch that wasn't about Charlie and Tyler. I do think they should have had the Sweeney (jeans/genes) actress present the Late Show award, tho... it was weird to see her with the young Adolescent actor.
