The Hawk Tuah girl has slammed Charlie Kirk critics in a rare announcement since her crypto 'scandal.'

Haliey Welch went viral in June 2024 after she made a tongue-in-cheek oral sex joke.

When asked what makes a guy 'go crazy' in bed, she said on Tim & Dee TV: "You gotta 'hawk tuah' and spit on that thing." Thus, her nickname as the 'Hawk Tuah girl' was born.

Haliey's new image catapulted her to social media stardom, helping her to build an empire from merchandise to crypto coin.

However, most of her legacy came crumbling down when she launched a failed memecoin.

Dozens of customer's said they lost their 'life savings' purchasing the coin, which the internet apparently still hasn't forgiven her for.

Now, Welch has broken her silence by weighing in on death of the controversial political commentator.

Kirk was shot in the neck and killed while speaking at a college event on Wednesday (September 10), while attendees could be heard screaming and scrambling for cover.

Haliey confessed she normally 'doesn't talk about anything this serious' on her channel at the start of her Instagram video, but said 'it needs to be talked about'.

"Over the last few days, I've seen some of the most outrageous and heinous things that you could possibly see on this app," she continued. "I don't really give a s*** who I offend when I say this but for some people to get on this app and applaud another human being unalived, in front of his family, that is f***ing sick."

"You're a sick, f***ing individual."

Haliey continued to call out Kirk's critics, some of whom she suggested appear to be celebrating his death.

"You didn't have to agree with anything that man said, not a single thing he said, preached, practised, anything. But you should have a little bit of sympathy for his wife and for his kids that were there with them.

"And just be f***ing respectful, like the man literally just passed away two or three days ago.

"And if you didn't like him, you don't have nothing nice to say, don't f***ing say nothing at all like, oh my god, is it that f***ing hard?"

Wrapping up her two-minute-long rant, she said the human race share more similarities than differences but American society is becoming divided, dubbing the issue 'one of the biggest problems with this f***ing country right now'.

"If this past week hasn't opened some of y'alls eyes man.

"We live in a mean and evil a** world," Haliey continued before talking about the fatal stabbing of a young Ukrainian refugee on a North Carolina train.

She urged her followers to start showing a 'little bit more compassion' and to work on being 'a hell of a lot nicer'.

"And if you just can't seem to do that, then you have a f***ing day you deserve and the chickens will be coming home to roost for your a**. Good day," Haliey concluded.


However, some of her followers didn't take kindly to her message and continued to call her out for her controversies.

"Remember when you robbed your fans with your coin scam rug pull?" said one.

"You scammed people through your crypto rug pull… stay offline forever," a second chimed on Twitter.

In 2024, the US Securities and Exchange Commission investigated Haliey's memecoin scandal which resulted in no charges.

"The SEC closed the investigation without making any findings against, or seeking any monetary sanctions from, Haliey," her attorney explained at the time.

"Because they did not bring any action against her, there are no restrictions on what she can do in regards to crypto or securities in the future."
