Sicko dresses up as Charlie Kirk, re-enacts his assassination at event hosted by his widow

 A sicko dressed as Charlie Kirk to protest an event hosted by the assassinated activist’s widow, Erika Kirk — then re-enacted his murder as crowds chanted, “He deserved to die.”  

The protester was seen at the Turning Point USA conference in San Antonio, Texas, wearing a papier-mache head made to resemble the slain podcaster, with the demonstrator suddenly collapsing on the floor as if to mock Charlie’s assassination last September. 

The protester pulled the stunt in front of attendees at the Turning Point USA Women’s Leadership Summit on Friday — days after someone was charged with threatening to kill Erika Kirk at such an event.

During the sick stunt, a man on a megaphone could be heard shouting at conference attendees, “You are protecting pedophiles. You are protecting Nazis.”

Social media footage also captured fellow protesters celebrating Charlie Kirk’s assassination as they shouted, “Deserved to die!” 

The demonstrators then joined the rest of the protesters booing Erika Kirk, 37, who was leading Friday’s summit. 

The widow, who succeeded her slain husband as CEO of Turning Point USA, also faced a heckler inside the San Antonio Marriott Rivercenter.

“Erika Kirk protects pedophiles! Erika Kirk protects pedophiles!” the woman screamed before being removed from the event, video showed.  

Kirk took a moment from her speech to address the heckler, urging the woman to change her ways and find real happiness.

“It’s important to remember that happiness comes and goes — and I pray that you find it,” she replied to the heckler.

“That’s an important moment because that just shows duty to faithfulness gives life meaning, and we must pray for our enemies and those that do not feel like their life has meaning,” Kirk continued.

“And that’s a perfect example of that. A perfect example. You pray for your enemies. You pray for those that persecute you,” she added.

The summit took place through the weekend despite online threats against Kirk’s life in the days leading up to it, including a bomb threat.

Police arrested Jacob Wenske, 26, who was charged with two felony counts of making a terroristic threat, causing public fear.

NYC rejects permits for MSG’s outdoor Knicks watch party for Game 3 of NBA Finals

 The plans for a Monday night Knicks watch party at MSG for Game 3 of the NBA Finals have been doused amid amped-up security with President Trump due in the house.

The NYPD and US Secret Service said traffic around the World’s Most Famous Arena will be shut down, and state-of-the-art security and surveillance measures will be in place inside and outside the venue for the critical game. 

“This is a historic run, and it’s great to see the energy and pride Knicks fans are bringing to New York City,” Matt McCool, special agent in charge of the Secret Service, said in a statement.

“At the same time, our responsibility is to ensure the highest level of public safety,” he said. “After careful coordination and assessment, the Secret Service and the NYPD jointly determined that outdoor watch parties could not be accommodated in the immediate vicinity of Madison Square Garden.”

Other watch parties are cleared for Central Park and the Brooklyn Bowl, a City Hall spokesperson said.

“With President Trump attending Game 3, the Secret Service and the NYPD have determined that a watch party cannot be held outside Madison Square Garden due to the additional security requirements that come with a presidential visit,” the spokesperson said in a statement. “Our administration is proud to support these events and create opportunities for fans across the city to be part of this incredible Finals run. Let’s go Knicks!”  

Security at the Garden on Monday will include “both pedestrian and vehicular hard closures,” the feds said. 

“Physical security enhancements are being installed around Madison Square Garden, including anti-scaling fencing, vehicular mitigation barriers, crowd-control infrastructure and other protective measures designed to ensure a safe and secure environment,” spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said.

Fans with coveted tickets to the game are advised to show up at the gate at least two hours early to make sure they get to their seats in time — with wait times potentially up to three hours.

A strict no bag policy will be enforced, and no storage lockers will be available to store the dozens of items banned by the Secret Service.

A spokesperson for the NYPD confirmed in a statement Sunday that the security measures were planned with the feds.

“We expect watch parties at Madison Square Garden to resume for Game 4,” the police rep said. 

The Post first reported last week that Trump would attend the Monday night game, with the Knicks up 2-0 on the San Antonio Spurs and two games from their first title since 1973.

They go into Game 3 of the best-of-seven series on a 13-0 playoff win streak after they edged out the Spurs 105-104 in Texas Friday.

The improbable run has seen thousands flock to watch parties outside Madison Square Garden, Summer State at Central Park, Hudson Yards, Brooklyn Bowl and watering holes throughout the city.

However, plans for a Monday night bash outside the arena were dashed after Trump announced plans to attend the game. 

“The permit for the Plaza33 Game 3 watch party was denied by the city’s permitting office in consultation with the NYPD,” an MSG spokesperson said in a statement.

Trump’s presence means it could take fans with the highly-coveted tickets up to three hours just to get through the doors. 

“If you don’t have to work or travel in the area, you should stay as far away as possible,” one Manhattan cop told The Post. 

“There will be so much security in the area it will be almost impossible to move around, especially when the game ends and people come from all over,” he added. 

With no watch party, the area outside the Garden will instead be filled with TV news trucks and Secret Service security facilities, law enforcement sources said.

5 stabbed in bloody attack inside Penn Station — suspect in custody

 Five people were injured in a bloody stabbing inside Penn Station Sunday evening in what sources described as a random attack by a deranged man.

The knifing rampage began shortly after 7 p.m. at the busy Midtown commuter hub, according to the FDNY — just over 24 hours before President Trump will be directly above the transit center, at Madison Square Garden for Game 3 between the Knicks and Spurs.

Five victims were rushed to Bellevue Hospital, including one person with serious injuries, two people with moderate injuries, and two others with minor injuries, fire officials said.

An unidentified suspect is in custody, authorities added. The individual is believed to be emotionally disturbed, according to sources.

An Amtrak spokesperson confirmed to The Post that Amtrak police responded to the stabbing and apprehended the suspect. 

A picture posted to social media showed a group of cops pinning an individual to the ground on the floor of the station.

“This guy stabbed somebody in Penn Station,” the user wrote. “People were flooding out of the station.”

A worker at Penn Station who wished to remain anonymous, said that he received calls to shut down the area and arrived to find two wounded men and the floors covered in blood. 

“I got calls to start closing the station,” he said. “It was real bloody, there was a lot of blood on the floor.”

The worker added that he saw one victim with bandages on his head who “looked like he was hurt pretty bad,” and another with what appeared to be a scratch to his neck.

“It’s New York City. Things like that happen, unfortunately, it happened down here.  I can’t say it happens here a lot because it doesn’t … it’s a good place here, people trying to get home.

The investigation into the incident remains ongoing.
