Overview
- Bright red posters on campus promoted a “John Brown Club” and read “Hey, fascist! Catch!,” a phrase reported on ammunition tied to the accused killer of Charlie Kirk.
- Georgetown said the flyers were taken down and that campus police are investigating to ensure community safety.
- Education Secretary Linda McMahon publicly rebuked the posters and said department officials spoke with university administrators who agreed to remove them.
- Reporters who scanned the QR code found it directed to a Google Doc sign-up form inviting people to join the club and requesting email addresses.
- The group is not listed as an official student organization at Georgetown, and officials have not determined who posted the flyers.
