Charlie Kirk made several negative comments about Simone Biles, particularly after she withdrew from the Tokyo 2021 Olympics citing mental health issues. Kirk called Biles a "selfish sociopath," labeled her a "shame to the country," and said the US is raising "a generation of weak people like Simone Biles." He criticized her for quitting when things got hard and accused her of seeking glory without courage. Kirk also questioned Biles' character and made controversial remarks about her acceptance of transgender individuals. After Kirk's assassination in 2025, a viral but fake blog post falsely claimed Simone Biles had mocked Kirk's death in a blog response. However, it has been confirmed that Biles did not make any statement or write any blog mocking him. The viral post was AI-generated and not authored by Biles. No direct comments from Biles regarding Kirk's death have been made public.
