Notorious CO Springs journalist endorses Antifa violence even if it leads to death
“I condone violence. It’s a part of our society. It’s something that people face, you know, in all kinds of walks of life, it is a presence and when you talk about, kind of, covering extremism, and you know, on the fringes of politics on both the left and t
Tubbs asked Beedle, "Do you condone violence?" To which Beedle answered, "I guess if you're looking for, like, a yes or no answer, I mean, yes." Beedle clarified the call to violence extended beyond self-defense and said, "I condone violence. It's a part of our society. It's something that people face, you know, in all kinds of walks of life, it is a presence and when you talk about, kind of, covering extremism, and you know, on the fringes of politics on both the left and the right, you know, violence is a part of that world."

Beedle went on Tubb's program to claim Beedle is only to be a journalist, after The Post Millennial's Andy Ngo reported that Beedle was behind the Colorado Antifa account. Beedle said that Beedle had "not been involved in any kind of activism for at least four years since like early 2019." Later Beedle acknowledged being a "founding member" of Colorado Springs Antifa.
On December 18, Ngo broke on Twitter that Beedle was behind the Colorado Springs Antifa account. Beedle then locked Beedle's personal account but soon after made it public again on December 19 when Beedle wrote, "I am [very] proud of how miserable I made all those asshole's lives. If I could go back in time, not only would I do it all again, but knowing what I know about Jan. 6, I would do it with a renewed vigor and ferocity. You can do it too! Form an affinity group, dox some chuds."
Beedle explicitly called for violence and tweeted, "Do I support violence? Yes. F*ck 'em."
The interview with Tubbs was pre-recorded because "It was determined that because of the activity via social media and maybe the bio of Heidi Beedle. We (the show's producers) don't want her in the facility," Tubbs said.
Tubbs asked Beedle "if somebody dies" is it a "so be it" situation, to which Beedle said "that's certainly a risk." Tubbs followed up and said, "if I'm involved in something you don't like and violence is condoned, and I'm killed, is it 'well, that was the risk?'"
"That's part of the risks that it entails," Beedle answered.
Beedle claims to be a US Army vet who has used training from the service for the Antifa movement and said in the past, "I think a big part of me gravitating toward Antifa was a substitute for the rush and excitement of being in the army. Pretty much everything we did was influenced by small-unit tactics and ranger handbook stuff. It was fun to be part of a team and f*ck sh*t up again."
Beedle also told Tubbs that concerning Doxing: "Yeah, I think it's an important, you know, public service."
Beedle is a former high school teacher who, according to a Colorado's School District 49 Facebook post from 2017, was "English teacher of the year" at Sandy Creek High School.
Ngo reported that Beedle was also a "furry" and wrote, "She was a teacher & wrote about how she politically brainwashed the students. She also wrote about giving a child a book that features kinky sex to celebrate trans month."
Ngo reported that on Beedle's blog, Beedle wrote about how a parent complained to the school because of a comparison Beedle made between former president Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler. In another, the teacher shared a book with graphic sex scenes with a minor student.
After getting exposed, Beedle's personal Twitter page has turned private.
When faced with backlash due to Beedle's promotion of violence, the Recorder pledged their support to the Antifa extremist and wrote, "We stand behind @HeidiBeedle's record of excellent journalism here at the @COTimesRecorder and elsewhere. We are proud to have her as a colleague and friend."
