Part-time instructor at Fresno State University calls for death of Trump, Musk
A part-time instructor at Fresno State University called for the deaths of President Donald Trump and Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) head Elon Musk. "I have a dream for this to happen much sooner rather than later," part-time instructor Katherine Shurik posted on Instagram on Jan. 11, 2025. The post included a photo of Trump in a casket with former president George W. Bush and former first lady Laura Bush, former president Bill Clinton and former first lady Hillary Clinton, former president Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama and first lady Melania Trump all looking on. Watch: Protesters Rail Against 'Malignant Presence' Elon Musk During 'Tesla Takedown' Demonstrations She included the hashtags, "#FelonTrump #TraitorTrump #RapistTrump #DieTrump #TrumpDead," in the Instagram post. A video of Shurik posted Saturday on X by the account Oreo Express showed her saying that she would give extra credit to her students who attended a protest against Elon Musk and Tesla. Read On The Fox News App Saturday was the "Tesla Takedown's Global Day of Action," which included over 200 protests across the country. The website for the effort instructs people to "Sell your Teslas, dump your stock, join the picket lines. We're tanking Tesla's stock price to stop Musk. Stopping Musk will help save lives and protect our democracy." Musk, the founder and CEO of Tesla, has struck the ire of Americans across the country for his auditing of programs and departments in the federal government for efficiency and eliminating redundancy. Since January, multiple Tesla dealerships as well as Tesla vehicles have been vandalized by protesters. 10 Places Where Tesla Vehicles, Dealerships Were Attacked This Year In the X video posted by Oreo Express, Shurik says, "I'm Katherine Shurik, I am actually trying to get a NOW chapter, National Organization of Women off the ground here in Fresno, I'm an anthropologist and a professor at the university here." She added, "I teach an activist anthropology course. I am trying to get my students involved as well. The next week they do get extra credit for coming to the protest." On Facebook, Shurik shared a photo of a tombstone that had the words inscribed, "Donald J. Trump, June 14, 1946 to now would be good," according to a report from The San Joaquin Valley Sun. Shurik added words to the post that read, "And take Musk and the rest of the Nazi (Republican) party members with you too!" Another post shared on Instagram by Shurik says "Marked safe from watching a lying terrorist rapist, who wants to eliminate the Constitution swear to abide by the Constitution." In a statement to Fox News Digital, Fresno State University said, "While Fresno State firmly believes in the principles of free speech, we strongly condemn the abhorrent social media posts and comments made by one of our part-time instructors." The university added that, "As these views were published by the employee as a private citizen, they do not represent our University in any way. Fresno State firmly denounces wishes of death against any elected official, particularly the President of the United States – these go against our core educational values and are not consistent with our Principles of Community. As Americans and educators, we pride ourselves on democratic dialogue, not words of derision and contempt about the most important political figure of our country."

Trump issues new California water order as wildfires continue to burn: What to know
Trump issues new California water order as wildfires continue to burn: What to know Show Caption Hide Caption Trump greeted by Newsom in Los Angeles ahead of wildfires tour President Donald Trump was greeted by Gov. Gavin Newsom in Los Angeles to tour areas hit by the deadly wildfires. President Donald Trump signed a wide-ranging executive order Sunday demanding federal and state officials deliver more water and other resources to southern California to help fight wildfires – even if it means clashing with area leaders. Trump for weeks has criticized California officials over their handling of the latest wildfire blazes, which have killed at least 28 people and burned more than 35,000 acres. "Firefighters were unable to fight the massive wildfires due to dry hydrants, empty reservoirs, and inadequate water infrastructure," the president wrote in an order earlier this month. Some hydrants in the Los Angeles area ran dry during the height of the wildfires, but local officials say that's because they were not designed to deal with major disasters. Trump also accused Gov. Gavin Newsom of refusing to provide water from northern California to fight the fires. But what would Trump's order actually do? It directs the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, a national agency, to deliver more water through the Central Valley Project, a network of dams, canals and other infrastructure. And his administration said the delivery should come even if it conflicts with state or local laws. That's not the only time Trump called for overriding ongoing efforts in the California. The order calls on the interior and commerce secretaries to zero in on "activities that unduly burden efforts" to move water around the state. Trump's order also directs the White House to see whether it can attach conditions on federal aid to the state to ensure cooperation. The president has repeatedly threatened to withhold relief if it doesn't reroute water to southern California. California has arguably the nation's most complex water systems, Fresno State University political science professor Tom Holyoke, who specializes in western water policy, told USA TODAY last week. Los Angeles gets its water primarily from the Los Angeles River, Owens Valley in eastern California and the Colorado River terminating from the Rocky Mountains, Holyoke said. More: Trump's California water order takes aim at Newsom, troubled Delta smelt This is the president's second water-related executive order and another attempt to mandate water from northern California's Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, one of the state's main water sources, to be redirected south. Last week, Trump issued another order meant to change the environmental protections surrounding the smelt, a three-inch-long fish once vital to California's ecosystem but now on the Endangered Species List. The latest directive also came two days after the president toured the destruction in Los Angeles. The area's two largest wildfires, the Palisades Fire in Pacific Palisades and the Eaton Fire near Pasadena have now reached at least 90% containment. During a roundtable meeting with L.A. Mayor Karen Bass and other officials afterward, Trump said Friday he didn't know how "devastating" the fires were until he saw for himself. "I didn't realize. I saw a lot of bad things on television, but the extent of it, the size of it. We flew over it," Trump said of the fire damage. "It is devastation. It's incredible. It's really an incineration." Trump clashed with Bass on local management and whether residents, including those living in Pacific Palisades and Altadena, can return to what's left of their homes. Newsom has also repeatedly hit back and Trump's criticism of local management in the face of disaster. "Maybe the president doesn't know that there's not a spigot that can be turned to solve all the water problems that he alleges exist, that don't exist when it comes to the state water system here in California," he told reporters last week. The lack of measurable rain, hurricane-force winds, low humidity, and vegetation made for the 'unfortunate perfect firestorm,' said Char Miller, an author and environmental analysis professor at Pomona College in Claremont, California. 'It was simply too overpowering.' 'They could've had five times the resources that night, personnel and technical," Miller said. "But nothing, and I mean nothing, could have been done to stop that fire.' Much-needed rain helped firefighters make gains on several blazes in Southern California on Monday as flooding shuttered schools, triggered landslides and prompted road closures. With help from the rain, containment has increased for the Palisades and Eaton fires as well as the Hughes Fire, north of Santa Clarita, and the Border Fire 2 in San Diego County.
