This is a spin-off page from a larger one called,
Which party promotes hate speech and violence?
The specific subtopic here is the murder of Charlie Kirk while he was speaking at Utah Valley University
on September 10, 2025. Normal middle-of-the-road Americans are put off by the hateful celebrations
of this homicide, and the political ramifications are yet to be fully realized.
Kirk:
As a gladiator for truth, his death triggers a leftist hatred. So concerned was
Charlie Kirk about the direction America was heading in 2012 that, at 18, he opted to forgo college
to launch an organization called "Turning Point USA." He sought to focus on helping high
school and college students galvanize around a core set of traditional values to keep America's
foundation strong. The core ideas Kirk embraced were threefold: America is the greatest
country in the history of the world, the Constitution is the greatest political document ever
written, and free enterprise is the most secure way to lift people out of poverty and create
prosperity for all — core values his critics obviously disdained. Kirk used logic
and human dignity to engage students in debates, encouraging independent thought. He
accurately recognized that many on the left simply accepted the ideas to which they were being
exposed, rejecting the core values necessary for America to remain the greatest country in the world.
Be
Careful of the Cornered Democrat Rat. We all know that when you corner an animal, it
will fight tooth and nail for its survival. This means that even supposedly meek creatures
will defend themselves with a surprising level of frenzy and violence. The choice for any
cornered creature facing death is to go out with an all-out snarl. This is where the Democrat
party movement finds itself. Snubbed at the polls, cut off from sub rosa USAID
sustenance, humiliated time and again by the ever adroit Donald Trump, and hemorrhaging its
plantation BIPOCs, the party has resorted to obscenities, outright antisemitism, and the defense of
criminals everywhere (including drug-runners on the Caribbean Sea) as its tonic for combating The
Donald. Our commonsense hope that the Democrats would finally wake up and realize how much
their foaming-at-the-mouth hatred, projection, trans adoration, scenery-chewing (Hakeem Jeffries),
and irrationality (Stephen King) is costing them has been dashed. Charlie Kirk's murder did that.
How
did we get here? By submitting to the intimidation of the left. In the wake of
the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the internet is flooded with shock, grief, and horror at what
has happened. It was also horrified at the thousands of leftists' delight and celebration,
congratulating the assassin. Far too many of those who have been thanking the shooter, for
reasons that are impossible to discern, seem to think they are the mainstream, that a majority of
Americans agree with their ghoulish praise of this murderer. How is it possible that these
thousands, maybe millions of Americans, many of them teachers, professors, nurses, doctors, and of
course, indoctrinated students, think that murdering a person with whom they disagree is not only
acceptable, but something to be glorified? How did we get here?
There
Can Be No Peace Or Unity With A Violent, Unrepentant Left. In the days since Charlie
Kirk's assassination by a radical Antifa terrorist, a refrain has arisen in the corporate press and
the political establishment that we must come together, lower the temperature, tone down the
rhetoric, and condemn political violence on both sides. In order to have peace, they say, we
have to have unity. But there can be no peace or unity without first telling the truth, and
the truth is that both-sidesism, the polite fiction that the American left and right have a problem
with political violence, is a damnable lie — and everyone peddling it is a moral coward.
[Advertisement] Case in point is David French, the man willing to say anything for a
paycheck and a column at The New York Times. Over the weekend, French published a piece,
"There Are Monsters in Your Midst, Too," arguing that America has a problem with political violence
on both the right and the left. To call out the left for Kirk's assassination, or argue that
the left is inherently more violent than the right, says French, is nothing more than confirmation bias.
Charlie
Kirk and the apocalyptic narcissism of trans. It is the blackest irony, like a sick
joke by the universe, that Charlie Kirk was gunned down as he discussed gun violence. That
word — 'violence' — was the last he ever uttered. Milliseconds later,
violence of the gravest kind was visited on him. Actually, we need to be more specific:
Kirk was discussing trans violence in the seconds before his death. He was pushing back
against one of his student interlocutors who seemed to downplay the phenomenon of trans mass
shootings. The student badgered Kirk to say how many such shootings there have been. 'Too
many', Kirk replied. Seconds later, his carotid artery was severed and he was dead. I'm
not suggesting Kirk was executed for daring to talk about trans violence. The gunman will not
have been able to hear what Kirk was saying — he was on a rooftop 200 yards away.
[...] The thing is, he was right: there are too many trans shootings. There has been a
violent turn in the trans ideology. The trans sect does seem ever-more consumed by a brutish
animus for anyone who dissents from its post-truth orthodoxies; for those [...] who dare to
withhold their validation from men who claim to be women or youths who claim to be non-binary.
Antifa
Is Responsible For Charlie Kirk's Assassination. On Sept. 10, conservative
political icon Charlie Kirk was assassinated by Antifa, and there is currently a massive corporate
media information operation struggling with all its might to prevent you from drawing that
conclusion. Even before the 22-year-old alleged assassin was arrested, the contours of the
shooter's motives were being fiercely debated when Steven Crowder published what he reported to be
an ATF document, which noted, "The spent cartridge was still chambered in addition to three unspent
rounds at the top fed magazine. All cartridges have engraved wording on them, expressing
transgender and anti-fascist ideology." [Advertisement] The spin machine went immediately to
work, with CNN labelling the engravings as a "range of phrases related to cultural issues."
It was later revealed that the phrases included, "Hey Fascist! Catch!" and, "O Bella
ciao, Bella ciao, Bella ciao, ciao, ciao," lyrics from a popular Italian anti-fascist song. (While
some have attempted to obfuscate the song's origins, as of this writing, the extensive Wikipedia
writeup of the song's history is contained under the website's "Anti-fascism" category.) Andy Ngo,
who has long tracked Antifa, noted that the phrase "Bella Ciao" was included in the manifesto of
Puget Sound John Brown Gun Club member Willem van Spronsen before his attack on an ICE facility in
Tacoma, Washington, in 2019. "Hey Fascist! Catch!" — plus a series of
arrows — is apparently associated with the video game Helldivers, which includes
a satirical fascist world government. The song may also appear in the video game.
When
Racists Write Charlie Kirk's Obituary. Because leftists have largely controlled the
print and broadcast news institutions in the United States for the last century, they have long
exercised a kind of monopoly in rendering public judgment on the recently departed. In
obituaries and news stories, leftists tell us who lived good or bad lives. It is no surprise
that the lives of leftist fellow travelers are often assiduously scrubbed and polished so that the
public might be persuaded to grieve their passing, whereas the lives of non-leftists are banged up
and tarnished so as to dissuade the public from following in their footsteps. In this way,
Islamic terrorists are described as "austere religious scholars." Weather Underground bombers
and cop-killers are transformed into civil rights heroes. Serial adulterers and misogynists
are extolled as "defenders of abortion rights." Yet prominent conservatives and libertarians
are routinely memorialized as "controversial," "divisive," "hateful," "racist," or
"dangerous." This ignoble tradition has continued following the assassination of Charlie
Kirk. In news stories that frame Charlie's opinions and speeches as the proximate cause of
his murder, America's pre-eminent news publications scarcely disguise their intended message:
He had it coming.
'Lower
the Temperature!' Cries the Mob Lighting Molotov Cocktails. Free speech defenders
frequently quote Voltaire: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your
right to say it." The Left has turned this inside out. "If I disapprove of what you
say, I'm justified in killing you." Embarrassed Democrats, caught with no way to blame the
assassination on MAGA, are frantically releasing statements deploring "political violence on both
sides." But the violence isn't on both sides. If it were, dozens of cities would be in
flames right now, and Republican mobs would be occupying campuses, screaming for justice. But
no police departments are on alert, no shop owners are boarding up windows. Days of
Rage? Only Democrats do that.
Charlie
Kirk Was Wise Beyond His Years, and a Master Builder. In 2012, I read an article on
Breitbart.com that called out liberal bias in the teaching of economics. The author pointed
to "distortions" in a high school textbook co-authored by Paul Krugman that dismissed the thinking
of supply-side economists. It denied that the tax reduction they helped bring about during
the Reagan administration had any effect on economic growth — despite government data
showing exactly the opposite: a dramatic surge in job creation and a marked decline in
unemployment. The author declared, "If a student were to submit an essay with such disregard
for basic evidence, it would ensure a failing grade." He concluded, "Students are being
pushed towards an education that demonizes free enterprise while advocating top-down government,
deficit spending and class warfare." The piece featured references to iconic supply siders
Robert Mundell and Arthur Laffer, among other respected sources. Its authoritative critique
was worthy of a seasoned policy analyst. Yet the author was an unknown named Charlie Kirk,
then just a senior in high school.
Charlie
Kirk Is Dead. Long Live Charlie Kirk. The assassin who took Charlie Kirk's life
on Sept. 10 may have thought he could kill Kirk's ideas with the same bullet that he used to
steal the lifeblood from the conservative icon, but he was wrong. The outpouring not just of
grief but of fellowship that followed the assassination has shown that people who are vessels for
an ideal continue to pour forth inspiration even when the vessel is shattered. [...] Although Kirk
was not a political leader in the traditional sense, he wielded tremendous power to influence
elections and, in the opinion of many, would have also very likely been elected president
someday. In that regard, the assassin robbed us of the future. We can never know what
an RFK presidency would have been like, and we can never know what Charlie Kirk could have achieved
if he had been allowed to live. That part of Charlie Kirk is dead. But perhaps the
death of MLK provides a template for how Kirk's legacy can survive him, and how the nation could
still benefit from Kirk's example — as a staunch defender of the First Amendment's
rights of freedom of speech, religion, and assembly, but also as a faith-based proponent of
restoring traditional values to our public discourse.
Democrats
Can't Debate. Charlie Kirk is emblematic of one of the things that is great about our
country. Endowed by our Creator, we have freedom of speech. [...] Charlie used freedom of
speech to enlighten, educate, argue, and persuade. He chose a debate format, offering people
with ideological differences a chance to give their own perspectives. If you count winning by
hearts and minds, there was a clear champion over time of the debates. And, that champion was
gathering strength and gaining ground. This is what terrified atheists and progressives
most. The latter's worldview has a stranglehold based on conformity, consensus, and
ideological purity couching no challenge or dissent. Calls have been renewed for progressive
fascists to renounce political violence and violent rhetoric. This would leave progressives
embracing just the socialist component of fascism. Establishing such a limit on themselves,
they would have to settle for progressive socialism. This presents a vulnerability to ever
louder calls to debate differences instead of resolving them with coercion, intimidation, and violence.
Democrats'
Relentless Demonizing Paves Way For The Next Political Assassination. In their
perverse pursuit of power, leftist politicians are daily signing the death warrant for the next
political assassination. It's now a matter of when, not if. You can't relentlessly call
your political enemies "Nazis", "fascists," and "tyrants" without giving license to homicidal
leftists to do what they do best: Attack their perceived existential threats. Just ask
the family and friends of Christian evangelizer and conservative icon Charlie Kirk. Or
President Donald Trump, who is intimately familiar with what the unhinged left is capable of.
American politics is a tinder box right now, and leftists like California Gov. Gavin Newsom
and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker keep striking matches. GOP Rapid Response on Monday
released a list of 10 of the more incendiary comments from Democrat pols in the days following
Kirk's cold-blooded murder on Sept. 10. It's a veritable who's who of hate from liberal
politicians stoking the fires of political violence.

Timely news and commentary:
Charlie
Kirk and the Rhetoric of the Saloon. The left has now spent decades asserting that
offensive speech is violence. They are half right: rhetoric, like a punch, is an
application of force. But rhetorical force, under the right circumstances, serves as a useful
alternative to physical violence. Thus, persuasive force cannot be the same as
violence. Nevertheless, there are moral considerations that must guide our use of
rhetoric. Charlie Kirk's assassination in Utah dramatized the stakes of our political
discourse. Many commentators have noted that Kirk's recent death represents a "turning
point." This is undoubtedly true, and the crossroads at which we find ourselves relates to our
speech. If our aim is to transform America — to make it great again —
we must consider which rhetorical choices are most conducive to that goal.
Media
Outlet Affiliated With Radical Dearborn Preacher Calls on Muslims to Celebrate and Repeat Charlie
Kirk's Assassination. A media shop affiliated with a radical preacher in Dearborn,
Mich., recently published a 39-minute video celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination as a
"praiseworthy action" that Muslims across the United States should celebrate and repeat. The
call to violence has raised red flags with Trump administration officials as they seek to deport
foreign terrorist sympathizers and combat radicalism across the nation. "The Fate of Charlie
Kirk: The Insulter of the Messenger [Prophet Muhammad] and His Ruling According to Islam" was
published on Oct. 10 by the English-language media outlet Project Guiding Light, a radical
content mill affiliated with "pro-Islamic State" preacher Ahmad Musa Jibril, according to the
Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI). The video, which amplifies Jibril's brand of
radicalism, circulated on YouTube, X, Instagram, and Telegram. It remains accessible on an
Instagram page affiliated with Project Guiding Light, which also includes links to Jibril's
personal webpage and features the cleric in several posts.
Bible
Sales Surge Across U.S. Following Assassination of Charlie Kirk. Bible sales across
the United States surged to their highest level in years following the Sept. 10 assassination
of Turning Point USA founder and Christian activist Charlie Kirk, according to data cited by The
Wall Street Journal and Decision Magazine. In September alone, Americans purchased
2.4 million Bibles — a 36% increase from the same month in 2024 —
marking the strongest month of Bible sales recorded in 2025. The figures, compiled by Circana
BookScan, showed that Bible sales rose sharply even as overall U.S. print book sales declined by 1%
during the same period. "September brought a wave of troubling events — violence,
geopolitical tensions, and economic uncertainty — underscoring a pattern: In times
of crisis, more people turn to faith for comfort and support," said Brenna Connor, an analyst at
Circana BookScan.
Arkansas
professor officially fired for 'CELEBRATING' Charlie Kirk murder. A University of
Arkansas-Little Rock professor who promised to never stop "CELEBRATING" the assassination of
conservative leader Charlie Kirk has officially been fired. Chancellor Christina Drale upheld
the firing of Felicia Branch for her comments soon after Kirk's assassination last month while
speaking at Utah Valley University. She was a non-tenure track professor who ran the school's
Low-Income Taxpayer Clinic. In a since-deleted Facebook post, Branch wrote "It never
fails. People have come out caping for the devil that walked among us [...] so no. I
will not pull back from CELEBRATING that an evil man died by the method he chose to embrace."
"You're so QUICK to chastise, thinking we're simply celebrating a death. We. Are.
Not [...] evil begets evil [and Kirk] is no longer able to beget evil," she said. "That's
cause célébre." Branch also posted a meme showing members of the Ku Klux Klan
surrounding a burning cross with the title "PEOPLE MOURNING CHARLIE KIRK." The chancellor's
decision came after a faculty appeals council recommended a warning instead.
Why
Did So Many Democrats Cheer Charlie Kirk's Murder? Liberals tell us 1) that Charlie
Kirk had it coming, but 2) hardly any liberals approved of his murder. Both of those
assertions are false. At City Journal, the Manhattan Institute's Christina Buttons reminds us
of some basic facts. [...] Buttons describes our bifurcated media landscape, in which half the
country marinates in narratives that bear little relation to truth. Within that landscape,
she identifies three factors: ["]Three factors contributed to the celebration of Kirk's
assassination: cognitive shortcuts, institutional cues, and a changing conception of what counts as
harm.["]
Why
Some Progressives Celebrated Charlie Kirk's Death. This reaction relied on a
caricature of Kirk that long predated his death. As Kirk's profile in the conservative
movement grew, progressive media routinely cast him as a dangerous bigot whose rhetoric harmed
vulnerable people. In left-wing circles, this depiction hardened into fact. Messages
show that Kirk's alleged killer, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, absorbed that narrative; he told his
trans-identified romantic partner that he could no longer tolerate Kirk's "hatred." But Kirk
was not motivated by hatred. Publicly available clips show him rejecting the "white
supremacist" label and denouncing white identitarianism, anti-Semitism, and anti-gay bigotry within
the conservative movement. He modeled civil disagreement, treating people with respect,
showing compassion toward those who identified as transgender, and staying composed even when
insulted. The assassination of a public figure should draw universal condemnation. The
fact that Charlie Kirk's death did not — and that a nontrivial minority even viewed it
as comeuppance — indicates a shift in norms, from condemning violence categorically to
excusing it when the "right" target is hit.
Oxford
Union faces financial ruin after free speech row over Charlie Kirk leaves debating society in
'utter turmoil'. Oxford Union is in financial chaos as huge donations have been
frozen following a free speech row over Charlie Kirk. Sums of up to £500,000 have been
put on hold and prominent figures have pulled out of speaking at the debating society due to the
president-elect's controversial comments, it has been reported. George Abaraonye, 20, who
debated Mr Kirk just months prior to his death, sparked outrage by posting a WhatsApp message
appearing to celebrate the violence against the US influencer.
Charlie
Kirk's assassination reveals the growing threat of Democrats' violence. In a recent
conversation on my show News Sight, Patrick Basham laid out findings that expose a political
culture edging toward something darker than polarization. His words stayed with me long after
our broadcast aired on October 7. Basham, the director of the Democracy Institute, has
spent decades studying political behavior on both sides of the Atlantic. He is measured,
data-driven, and careful with his language. Which is why what he said was so striking.
Reflecting on the Institute's fresh polling data, he told me, "It's a sort of quite terrifying, or
at least unnerving, result. Just across the board, such a large minority admit to a pollster
that they have hatred in their heart for those who hold opposing political views. But that
said, we get to the nub of the issue, which is that a majority of Democrats admit that they hate at
least some people who hold opposing views." The choice of words in the poll was
deliberate. "We use the word 'hatred,' 'hate,' because we didn't want to say 'dislike' or
'strongly disagree.' That's just too tame today," Basham explained. "This poll was taken in
the days after Charlie Kirk's assassination. We wanted to identify how intense the sentiments
were. And we were not shocked that a majority of Democrats would acknowledge quite openly
that that is how they felt about political opponents." This hatred did not emerge overnight.
The
States Must Defend the American Church. On September 10, by one bullet, the
world was changed. Charlie Kirk, a fierce advocate for Judeo-Christian values and traditional
American principles, was assassinated. His death didn't just silence one of the century's
most influential voices — it shattered a family and exposed a growing rift in America's
moral fabric. While a strong segment of the American population was naturally shocked by the
gruesome death of a Christian martyr, we also witnessed troubling jubilation from students and even
teachers at institutions of learning across America. Even here in Texas, we saw students
celebrating the assassination of a strong man who stood firmly for biblical values and traditional
American principles. This chilling reaction serves as a stark reminder that, especially
amongst our younger generations, America is well on its way to becoming a post-Christian country.
Charlie
Kirk Understood True Freedom Is Inseparable From Duty. On Tuesday, President Donald
Trump posthumously awarded Charlie Kirk with the Presidential Medal of Freedom on what would have
been Kirk's 32nd birthday. Kirk's wife, Erika, accepted the award on her late husband's
behalf, speaking of his crusade for freedom. [Advertisement] "The very existence of the
Presidential Medal of Freedom reminds us that the national interest of the United States has always
been freedom," Erika said. "Our Founders etched it into the preamble of our Constitution, and
those words are not relics on parchment. They are a living covenant. The blessings of
liberty are not man's invention. They are God's endowment." "[Charlie] believed that
liberty was both a right and a responsibility. And he used to say that freedom is the ability
to do what is right without fear. And that's how he lived," Erika said, adding her husband would
say that "without God, freedom becomes chaos" and that freedom only endures "when anchored to truth."
Lipscomb
Academy Asks Parent, TPUSA Spokesman to Sign Non-Disclosure Agreements After Charlie Kirk
Controversy. In the wake of Lipscomb Academy's admission that it initially prohibited
students from wearing suit jackets and ties to mourn the assassination of Charlie Kirk, Turning
Point USA (TPUSA) spokesperson and conservative influencer Savannah Chrisley told The Tennessee
Star on Tuesday that she was asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) prior to meeting
with Lipscomb University President Dr. Candice McQueen and Lipscomb Academy Head of School
Dr. Brad Schultz. The meeting was held on October 2, just days after Chrisley sent
an email to administrators at both Lipscomb Academy and Lipscomb University, which owns the private
K-12 Christian school. The academy operates as part of the university's legal entity, and
both share campus facilities and branding.
Trump
honors late Charlie Kirk with Medal of Freedom. President Trump paid tribute to
Charlie Kirk with a Rose Garden celebration on what would have been his 32nd birthday —
as his widow Erika revealed he likely would have run for president one day. Trump, 79, called
the assassinated conservative activist a "martyr" worthy to be honored with some of the most famous
names in history. "Charlie Kirk was a martyr for truth and for freedom," the president
said. "And from Socrates to Saint Peter, from Abraham Lincoln to Martin Luther King, those
who change history the most — and he really did — have always risked their
lives for causes they were put on Earth to defend."
The
Medal Of Freedom Was Created For People Exactly Like Charlie Kirk. For years, the
Presidential Medal of Freedom has been awarded to celebrities and political allies. But on
Tuesday, President Donald Trump will posthumously award Charlie Kirk the highest civilian honor,
reviving the medal's original intent of recognizing those who have made extraordinary contributions
to the security, ideals, and freedoms of the country. Kirk was assassinated on Sept. 10
while speaking at a college campus in Utah, allegedly by a left-wing radical who espoused Antifa
ideology and transgender ideology. [Advertisement] Soon after Kirk's assassination,
Trump announced Kirk would posthumously receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom. John F.
Kennedy established the civilian honor in 1963, replacing Harry S. Truman's Medal of
Freedom. The award is intended to honor "any person who has made an especially meritorious
contribution to (1) the security or national interests of the United States, or (2) world peace, or
(3) cultural or other significant public or private endeavors." And there is no one more
deserving of such an honor than Kirk.
Unhinged
Oklahoma State University Professor Placed on Leave After Threatening and Reprimanding Student Who
Spoke at Event Honoring Charlie Kirk. An Oklahoma State University student says he
was reprimanded and threatened by a university staffer simply for wearing a Turning Point USA "47"
hat while speaking in honor of Charlie Kirk. Joshua Wilson, a junior and Senate University
Chairman at OSU, says the confrontation came out of nowhere during a routine one-on-one meeting
with a student government coordinator, News9 reported. What started as a heartfelt tribute to
Kirk, who was assassinated by a radical leftist, quickly devolved into a chilling lecture on
"triggered" family members and veiled warnings about his future at the university. Wilson
said the hat, a white ball cap emblazoned with a gold "47" (for Donald Trump as the 47th President)
and the Turning Point USA logo, wasn't intended as a political statement.
After
Charlie. Charlie Kirk paid the ultimate price. Now the question is, "What
happens after Charlie?" The immediate temptation may be for the leaders of Turning Point USA
to make the organization into a permanent memorial. Such a commitment would guarantee stasis
and even ossification. Acknowledgment of the great loss suffered by Charlie Kird's beautiful
and brave widow and those who are members of TPUSA must not become a type of liturgy endlessly and
perpetually rehearsed. Instead, the longer-term commitment must be to reaffirming the
Christian worldview he ably espoused, a view that must continue to be ably communicated by men and
women who have — as Charlie did — an intimate knowledge of the deep
intellectual and ideological pits academia and other institutions have dug for themselves.
Those men and women must be able to present the Christian alternative clearly and articulately.
In short, Turning Point must be committed to the message, not to the memory of one person.
Ivy
League professor Michael Mann who mocked Charlie Kirk's death still employed despite public outcry
and 'resignation'. A University of Pennsylvania professor who sparked controversy by
disparaging Charlie Kirk shortly after his murder is still employed at the university, which is
drawing backlash from some accusing the Ivy League institution of not taking political violence
seriously. Michael Mann, a climate scientist who served as the Vice Provost for Climate
Science, Policy, and Action at Penn, announced on his website last week that he was stepping down
from that position in a move he says was his decision and based on the "science policy advocacy
work" he was doing. The announcement came about two weeks after he sparked a firestorm by
retweeting multiple posts slamming Kirk in the wake of his assassination, which resulted in calls
for him to be fired.
Pam
Bondi reveals terrifying plot to assassinate Charlie Kirk's friend. A man threatened
conservative influencer Benny Johnson as part of an 'Antifa' plot to emulate Charlie Kirk's
assassination, Pam Bondi said at a fiery press conference Friday. The Attorney General
announced charges against a suspect named as George Isbell Jr. as part of a White House crackdown
on political violence. Isbell will be prosecuted in connection to threatening communications
mailed to Johnson and his wife Kate, which talked about wanting to orphan their children and
strangling Johnson 'with an American flag'. Johnson commands a following of over four million
on X and is one of the most outspoken conservative commentators on social media known for rubbing
shoulders with Donald Trump and other influential MAGA stars. Bondi said the alleged threats
against him were part of an 'Antifa' plot to 'wreak havoc on the streets of our cities', and linked
the threats to the shooting of Kirk which took place a month ago. 'This arrest will serve as a
reminder, we will find you,' Bondi said, also referencing recent attacks on an ICE facility in
Dallas and an anti-Semitic attack on Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro's home in April.
When
They Applaud Killing Babies in Abortions, It's No Surprise They Applauded Killing Charlie
Kirk. It is becoming more difficult than ever to deny that we have become a nation
gripped with death. When a culture openly celebrates killing, when murderers are excused and
violence is cheered, and when polls reveal that more than a third of Americans believe that killing
the President of the United States can be justified, then everyone is at risk. No one is
safe. We see the signs almost daily. After Charlie Kirk was assassinated, social media
was filled with posts mocking or even applauding his death. When UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian
Thompson was gunned down late last year, a vocal fringe celebrated the killing and even praised the
accused. This did not happen overnight. From mothers lauding their abortions to my
sister Terri Schiavo's needless, inhumane, court-ordered dehydration death, the devaluing of human
life has taught our culture to excuse — and even cheer — the destruction of
the innocent.

What
is wrong with the Democrats? [Scroll down] Then there is the left's
penchant for violence that they just cannot bring themselves to condemn. Far too many of them
openly celebrated the murder of Charlie Kirk: academics, politicians, and, of course, far-left
activists. They shamelessly praised his killer. The Democrats can't bring themselves to
condemn Jay Jones, the current candidate for state Attorney General in Virginia, who a few years
ago texted his wish to kill a few people he opposed — and their children, and
cops! Not one Democrat has called for him to step down from the campaign! How is this
possible? Because they agree with him. They actually do believe their political
opponents deserve to die. The Democrat party of today is angry, immoral, encourages violence,
and then applauds it when it occurs.
An
End Product of Our K-12 Education. One would think that when a young father of two
(Charlie Kirk) is murdered while speaking in public (where he was an invited guest), that no one
would say "good," or "he had it coming," or "we are better off without him," etc. But for
those who believe that decorum or common sense would stop people from publicly saying such
hatefulness, they would be wrong.
Build-A-Bear
Refuses Teen Girl's Request to Name Her Teddy After Charlie Kirk Following His Assassination.
A Build-A-Bear Workshop employee in Tukwila, Washington, allegedly refused to allow a 16-year-old
girl to name her stuffed bear after slain conservative icon Charlie Kirk, crumpling up the
commemorative birth certificate that comes with each teddy and tossing it in the trash. Evi
McCormick, 16, visited the Build-A-Bear store at Southcenter Mall with friends on Friday to create
a special teddy bear in memory of Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, who was
tragically assassinated on September 10 while speaking at Utah Valley University. Kirk
had inspired McCormick for years, she told local station KING 5, so she dressed the bear in a suit
and red tie and filled out the birth certificate with his name.
The Editor says...
The people who won't name a teddy bear after Charlie Kirk are some of the same leftists
who complain when a bakery
won't make a wedding cake for a same-sex couple.
The
kid acting like Charlie Kirk's political heir gets caught charging thousands for his presence,
despite implying otherwise. Last week, I was unfortunately made aware of a young
grifter in the conservative movement who was, by all intents and purposes, attempting to fashion
himself into the new Charlie Kirk. The first red flag? Brilyn Hollyhand refers to
himself as "The Internet's Youngest Voice of Reason", per The Independent. Honorary
titles of widespread representation are given by others once they're earned — they are
not self-created identities. Walter Cronkite didn't devise his "most trusted man in
America" name, and nor did James Gregory arrogantly determine that he really was "America's
funniest man" — those descriptors were monikers created by genuine admirers. Also
worth repeating: Until days ago, Brilyn had more than 200k followers on X with essentially
zero engagement. What else can that mean except fake, and purchased followers.
Conclusive? No. Circumstantial? Yes.
The
Left-Wing Terror Memeplex. A spate of recent terror incidents illustrates the
connection. The Annunciation Catholic Church shooter, for example, appears to have been
radicalized into a transgender identity through radicalized memespaces. The alleged assassin
of Charlie Kirk reportedly played a "dating simulator" involving "furries." Audrey Hale, who
killed three children and three adults at The Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee, identified
as a transgender man and, in her diaries, described a desire to "kill my own race" and to "kill all
the white kids," showing how trans ideology can overlap with far-left racial politics. [...] The
alleged Kirk assassin, Annunciation school shooter, and Nashville school shooter all experienced
sexual disorders, had troubled relationships with families, and spent an inordinate amount of time
in the radicalized memespace, where they built the desire for death.
Transgender
Ideology Killed Charlie Kirk and It's Destroying America. Charlie Kirk is dead.
Americans must face why. His murder was not random, not confusing, not detached from the
battles he fought so fiercely in life. It was the direct consequence of his bold refusal to
bend before one of the most aggressive and destabilizing ideologies of our time: transgender
radicalism. For years, Kirk warned about the dangers of this movement. Not just its
cultural consequences, but the deeper crisis of mental illness and violence it has unleashed across
the nation. In the end, his voice was silenced by precisely the pestilence he spent his
career opposing. The facts are painfully clear. On Sept. 13, 2025, police captured
Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old suspect in Kirk's murder, after a tense 33-hour manhunt that spanned
cities and involved local law enforcement working with the FBI. Robinson had been living in a
shared apartment in Saint George, Utah, with roommates, including Lance Twiggs, a young man
"transitioning" from male to female.
The Editor says...
It is impossible to transition from male to female, either by surgery or one's choice of clothing. Thus it is no surprise that so many of the
hapless dupes who have been encouraged to attempt such a transition are deeply angry when they discover it doesn't happen.
Charlie
Kirk's Assassination Has Galvanized Voter Blocs Not Typically Associated With TPUSA.
To the clowns on the Left who think that Charlie Kirk will be forgotten in five years, you're about
to get wrecked. First, most predictions by liberals are trash. They thought Trump
couldn't win again: he steamrolled back into the White House. These people are unhinged,
unserious, and unrelatable. Mute their whining, because it's just incoherent garbage
anyway. Kirk was assassinated while answering questions on September 10 at Utah Valley
University in Orem. Since then, the outpouring of prayers and calls to action has caught the
attention of one unlikely demographic — older Americans. Turning Point USA was
founded as a student activist organization. Since Mr. Kirk's murder, Boomer
conservatives want to get involved. It wasn't just young conservatives who were affected by
the death of the TPUSA founder.
Defense
says more time needed for Tyler Robinson case. The defense won't waive its right to a
preliminary hearing but needs more time before a date is set, the court-appointed attorney for
Tyler James Robinson, the 22-year-old man charged with the murder of conservative leader Charlie
Kirk, said Monday during a Utah County court waiver hearing. Kathryn Nester, Robinson's
lawyer, told Judge Tony Graf in the Provo courtroom that she needs at least another month to weigh
through a massive amount of documents before further discussion about a preliminary hearing.
Graf set another waiver hearing for 10 a.m. Mountain Standard Time Oct. 30, and the
prosecution and defense had no objections to the date and time. Nester said Robinson will be
at that hearing in person.
The Editor says...
If I was facing a firing squad, I'd get my lawyer to cook up every imaginable delay tactic.
UCLA
puts 'race and equity' director on leave for celebrating Charlie Kirk's death. The
University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) "has put its DEI office's director of race and
equity on leave following vulgar remarks about the death of Charlie Kirk," reports The College
Fix. DEI director Johnathan Perkins is a notorious anti-white racist who has celebrated
people's deaths and suffering for years, and routinely expresses hatred for white people, such as
the late Queen Elizabeth II of England. UCLA turned a blind eye to that viciousness for
years, because it drew only a modest amount of bad press from a few conservative web sites and this
blog. But when Perkins celebrated Charlie Kirk's death, people with large social media
followings drew attention to that, which finally generated enough bad press to force UCLA to put
Perkins on leave.
Is
Newsom Trying to Make Stephen Miller the Next Charlie Kirk? The Democrats' strategy
of painting President Donald Trump as a fascist whose victory would pose a threat to "our
democracy" pushed two deranged men to take matters into their own hands last summer.
Likewise, a similar campaign against Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk spurred an unhinged
young man to assassinate him during a speaking event at Utah Valley University earlier this
month. A towering figure in the conservative movement, his murder sent shockwaves through the
Right and ignited outrage across the country. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to connect
the dots between the Left's dangerous rhetoric and the spate of violence that has rocked the U.S.
in recent months. It is undeniable that apocalyptic language from political leaders can push
unstable individuals toward violence. California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who has already
kicked off his campaign for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination, has decided the best way
to capture voters' attention is by emulating Trump's bombastic social media playbook.
I
do not trust Charlie Kirk's 'replacement' and neither should you. I am perpetually
online, immersed in the news cycle, because my job demands it. Yet, I have never heard of
"Brilyn Hollyhand" until the last week or so, when he essentially appeared out of nowhere, being
promoted across the mainstream Republican media sphere, as a "protégé" of and
"replacement" for Charlie Kirk. [Video clip] Sure Kirk's murder is a
"heartbreaking" event — but not heartbreaking enough to deter an immediate appearance on
Fox News for self-promotion, smiling and chuckling your way through an interview, just
76 minutes after we all watched Kirk's throat explode as he took his last gasping breath
in a gory exit from this world. And as it turns out, no one else had really heard of Brilyn
either: [Two tweets] However, as someone who lives in Alabama, what I have heard of is
Hollyhand Companies, a massive real estate corporation that specializes in bringing low-income
housing (and all that comes with it) to nice, clean Alabama towns, like my own, using
our tax dollars.
We
Can't Let Leftist Freaks Hijack History To Smear Charlie Kirk. Despite having to
resort to ever more ludicrous examples and tenuous connections, the left can't get over its
addiction to comparing the Trump administration to the Nazis. New York Times columnist Masha
Gessen drew one of the most outrageous and disgusting comparisons to date in her Sunday article, "I
Look at This Country and I See a Stranger." Gessen not only suggested that Charlie Kirk's
assassination was justified but also displayed sympathy for the suspect in custody for the
horrendous crime. The article serves as Gessen's lament about the supposed death of free
speech in Trump's America in the wake of Jimmy Kimmel's all too short suspension for spreading
demonstrable lies about Kirk's alleged assassin.
Normal
Is the New Normal. It has been two weeks since Charlie Kirk was killed. Many,
many words have been written and spoken about him and in reaction to his death. There have
been many events, memorials, and eulogies, but also criminal acts. I've been reading and
thinking, coming to a synthetic conclusion rather than reacting quickly. There is absolutely
no excuse for killing Charlie Kirk. No one should be killed for their words. They might
be shunned, or even arrested, but never killed. No matter how vile the advocacy or idea,
murder is not a rhetorical tactic. His killing is, sadly and revealingly, simply an extension
of the violent language and actions of the Left. Conservatives are routinely called Nazis,
fascists, and murderers, the limiters of speech and haters of women, gays, trans, and indigenous
people. Even before Kirk's murder, innumerable commenters on X and Instagram have called for
the death of conservatives.
Suspected
Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson's defense attorney revealed. Tyler Robinson, the
22-year-old accused of fatally shooting Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk during a campus
speech earlier this month, finally has a defense attorney. Kathryn Nester, a former federal
public defender with more than 30 years of experience, is spearheading the defense, according
to a Utah County spokesperson. Kirk, a 31-year-old father of two, was facing a crowd at Utah
Valley University as part of a national speaking tour when a sniper's bullet struck him in the neck
in the campus courtyard.
Registered
Democrat['s] 11-Year-Old Daughter Comes Home From School Saying She Hates Charlie Kirk Without
Knowing Why. A registered Democrat mother in New Jersey is going viral after posting
a TikTok video admitting she had her political "turning point" the day her 11-year-old daughter
came home from school saying she hated Charlie Kirk — without even knowing who he
was. The video, posted by user @kryssaqt with the caption "What was your turning point?",
exposes the shocking level of indoctrination happening inside America's classrooms. For
years, Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk warned parents about what schools were doing to their
children. Now, tragically, after Kirk's assassination, one lifelong Democrat mother says
she's finally seeing it for herself. In her video, Kryssa explains she has been a registered
Democrat for years and prided herself on voting for "the person, not the party."
The Editor says...
The mother says she votes for "the person, not the party." Really? Did she vote for Joe Biden, the most corrupt and
venal presidential candidate since Hillary Clinton? Did she vote for Harris, the least qualified presidential candidate in
American history?
Everything
Democrats Are Saying About Charlie Kirk, They Think About You. They say Charlie Kirk
was a racist bigot and white supremacist because of his beliefs on race in America. They say
he was a misogynist and male chauvinist because of his opinions about gender roles. They say
Kirk was a fascist and white Christian nationalist because of his opinions on immigration and the
LGBT movement. From prominent American politicians, pundits, and celebrities to the hordes of
anonymous chairborne social media activists, all of them said these things about Kirk for years
before his assassination, and they have said these same things in the days since his death.
They said these things about him because he was one of the most outspoken and rhetorically gifted
conservatives of the last decade, antagonizing (and embarrassing) thousands of leftists across this
nation (and others). But don't let that fact lead you to believe that's the only reason
Democrats treated him with such scorn. If you agree with any of Charlie Kirk's politics, then
what the left is saying about him, they think about you too.
Meet
the trans Muslim Antifa member at pathetic Charlie Kirk funeral protest. One of the
few protesters rallying against the thousands of attendees at Charlie Kirk's funeral is a
practicing Muslim and self-proclaimed transgender anarchist with an Antifa membership.
Sumayyah Dawud, an apparent professional protester known for holding solo demonstrations across
Arizona, showed up bright and early at Kirk's Sunday memorial and was captured waving a Palestinian
flag with the Black Lives Matter logo. Dawud and a handful of other protesters outside Kirk's
funeral brandished a confusing array of signage, including some in support of Palestine, others
demonizing President Trump, and one dubbing the small encampment the "Satanic Society."
Charlie
Kirk Understood: Government Must Have "No Role" in Education. Charlie Kirk
understood that without addressing education and stopping the escalating indoctrination of
children, evil would win and the West would die. He told me so repeatedly.
Homeschooling and getting the government out of education entirely is not just desirable, but
essential, he argued. In the aftermath of his brutal martyrdom on a college campus as he
debated students, much has been said and written about Charlie's politics, his engagement with
college students and youth, his theological views, his beautiful family, his love for Christ, and
his gargantuan impact on the nation. Those were all crucial parts of his legacy. Far
less has been said about his extremely passionate efforts on the education front. But as he
told me multiple times, this is the key to winning the war and turning the tide. In
particular, he believed that government must ultimately be removed from education entirely as
parents reclaim their role from the state.
If
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the leader of the Democrat party... How to explain 118
elected members of the House who made it known that they approved of the murder of Kirk?
These people appear to have been drained of their humanity and to be willing to reveal indifference
to the death of a fine young man. If anything is to be learned from this blatant,
encouraged-by-the-left rhetoric, it is that evil actually does live among us and has just made its
most defiant revelation of itself to the world. These malignant people are not foreign
enemies; they are within this country, this Congress, our political class, our media, our
universities. Charlie Kirk was a one-in-a-lifetime prophet of traditional norms and
Christianity, who sought to lead young people, especially young men, away from the aimlessness he
saw among them. When he visited campuses throughout the country, he taught with gentle
dialogue the Jewish and Christian values that have long defined Western civilization but are no
longer taught in schools and universities. In Utah, an NVE (nihilistic violent extremist)
turned the Utah Valley University visit into a satanic event.
Why
did the BBC call Charlie Kirk 'far right'? 'Mr Kirk built a huge and devoted
following for his far-right views', said the BBC's North America editor Sarah Smith on
Sunday. The statement came during the BBC's coverage of Charlie Kirk's memorial in Arizona,
which was attended by tens of thousands of mourners and was addressed by US president Donald
Trump. Smith's statement is nothing short of astonishing. It would be one thing for
blue-haired keyboard warriors on Bluesky to be referring to dead conservatives as fascists.
But it is quite another for the UK's state broadcaster to toe that same line. The BBC pays
Smith more than £200,000 a year to report impartially on American affairs. We would
hope someone in her esteemed position might pause for thought before smearing a man who was killed
for his beliefs. The BBC isn't alone in painting Kirk as 'far right'. In the days
following his murder, mainstream media rushed to portray him and his views as beyond the
pale. The Guardian, like the BBC, described Kirk as 'far right', as well as a man who
'stood for the darker themes of... US nativism'. The New York Times accused Kirk of
leading a 'hard-right youth movement'. It was also forced to make a correction after falsely
attributing an anti-Semitic quote to him.
The
left's hatred and violence is finally driving people away. As numerous pundits on the
web have already noted, the assassination of Charlie Kirk last week has clarified most starkly the
political divide in both the United States as well as across the world. On the right, we have
Kirk's widow yesterday speaking at a memorial service for her husband, and with tears standing
before the world to forgive his killer. [...] That tone was set by Kirk himself, before he
died. All he ever did was want to debate his very mainstream conservative ideas with
leftists, with good will and rationality. [...] The left's response to Kirk however has been not
love or good will but hate. Hundreds and hundreds of partisan leftists went on social media
to gleefully celebrate his assassination. Leftist politicians and entertainers defamed both
him and what he stood for, with lies and slanders. And when the television show of one
entertainer, Jimmy Kimmel, got canceled by ABC because Kimmel had falsely claimed on the air that a
Trump supporter had killed Kirk, one leftist and former teacher's union employee decided it was
okay to protest Kimmel's cancellation by firing multiple bullets into the offices of an ABC
affiliate in Sacramento. The man, Al Hernandez Santana, also has an extensive X feed where he
had expressed hate for Donald Trump, often wishing him dead.
We
Can't Debate Our Way Out of This. Charlie Kirk died for the same cause that David
Horowitz was assaulted for, that Robert Spencer was banned for, and that Ben Shapiro faced bomb
threats for: free speech on campus. In an academic environment where a respected 74-year-old
scholar like Charles Murray could be physically assaulted at a college while the perpetrators
walked away with a 'mark' on their permanent record, the willingness of conservatives to appear on
campus was an act of courage. To do it the way that Charlie Kirk did was sheer heroism.
There's no question that he made an impact on a minority of students and there's also no question
that the majority of campuses, professors and students only became more hostile to free speech
since his campaign began. The numbers are sadly clear and they've only been getting worse
over the years. 1 in 3 students support using violence to silence opposing speakers.
7 out of 10 want to shout down controversial speakers like those who oppose the transgender and BLM
movements. The vast majority of students do not want to debate. They want to silence any
opposition. We are not going to debate our way out of this because you can't debate those who
not only don't want to listen, but those who are determined to shut you up any way that they can.
Was
Kirk 'Divisive', or Did He Simply Say What Millions Believe? Rep. Alexandria
Ocasio-Cortez is exercised that Charlie Kirk once said that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was "a
mistake." Rep. Bennie Thompson sees AOC's charge and raises it: "The fact is," he
said in an official statement, "Charlie Kirk's rhetoric was divisive, disparaging, and too often
rooted in grievance. The beliefs he evangelized normalized fringe views on race, sex, and
immigration. Unfortunately, his rhetoric resurrected dangerous prejudices of a dark past."
[...] Here's a question, Congressman. What sort of grievance would someone have to entertain
in order to be moved to describe someone who simply sought to engage young people in conversation
as "divisive" and "disparaging?" Follow-up question: Did Charlie Kirk try to
"normalize" fringe ideas about "race, sex, and immigration?" Or were the ideas he espoused,
in fact (you see that two people can deploy the "in fact" gambit), perfectly normal ideas that reflected
the beliefs of millions of Americans, even if those ideas departed from the Washington consensus?
How
do we explain it when celebrities act so evil? A number of show business, news media,
and political personages have proclaimed vile comments, cheering the murder of Christian
conservative Charlie Kirk. [...] Whether someone is selling a candidacy, a movie ticket, a TV
program, a recording, or any other commodity, market cultivation is surely a consideration.
No matter the sorrowfulness of Charlie's assassination, status hunters prioritize profit in grubby
calculations. Potential sales-chart downturns from foul public brayings would be
negligible. A star's audience yesterday likely knew his leanings and will remain beside him
today. Indeed, ardor might be heightened. Persons previously outside a celebrity's
base — well, they were already not in the equation. Save for this: Non-fans
who vocalize criticism play as much of a role in maintaining celebrity as do rah-rah
fanatics. Controversy means headlines. Headlines mean sales. "Why do you think
Frank Sinatra punches some driver in the mouth?" Alice Cooper manager Shep Gordon asked
writer Bob Greene, in the seventies. "To get into the straight press — which is
[...] a lot harder than getting into the entertainment press."
Kirk's
Assassination: The Left's Big Denial. Despite data showing the willingness of
the "very liberal" to support violence to achieve political ends, Democrats like Rep. Pat Ryan
(D-N.Y.) deny that calling political opponents "fascists" or "Nazis" or "Hitler" contributes to the
"overall problem." [Advertisement] Ryan said: "I actually don't think it
does. I think people are trying to grapple with a really unprecedented time in our country
where we're seeing maybe history not fully repeat, but history rhyme at some of the darkest times
in our world's history and struggling in good faith to try to put some intellectual thought into
that and find the right language ... I think not being honored by this president, that's hard to
figure out how to, how to put word to that in a way that is constructive." In short, how
would one describe a "fascist" without calling him and, by extension, his supporters, "fascist"?
Conflict
in aftermath of Kirk killing. There are two epic battles going on in the wake of the
assassination of Charlie Kirk. One is the battle to define Kirk. The other is the
battle to define his killer. There are significant voices trying to portray Kirk as a
hateful, divisive figure. At the same time, there are voices trying to portray Kirk's alleged
assassin, Tyler Robinson, as a confused, apolitical young man. In simplest terms, the point
for both is to absolve Kirk's political adversaries — Democrats, the Left, progressives,
antifa, trans warriors, furries, whatever — of complicity in Kirk's death. If Kirk
was divisive and hateful, then he might have, in some portion, brought his terrible fate on
himself. And if the suspect was indeed confused and apolitical, then he was not acting in any
directed way on behalf of an ideology that might then bear some blame for the assassination.
The
Attacks on Erika Kirk Are Disgusting. One of the most striking, if not the most
common, reactions on the left to Charlie Kirk's assassination is the attacks on Erika Kirk for
picking up Charlie's torch and continuing down the road he has been walking.
[Advertisement] It is true that Erika is no shrinking violet, and that she hasn't backed down
in the face of violence. Instead, she has doubled down on Charlie's mission and will take
over Turning Point USA, vowing to lead the movement. [Tweet with video clip] In
other words, she refused to be silenced by an assassin, and for this, she is being criticized and
accused of cynically using her husband's death for political and financial gain. [Tweet with
video clip] It really is remarkable the depths to which some people will go. I
have seen many people blame Charlie for his assassination, even saying that he could have avoided
it by giving in to the mob. If only he would have shut up he would be alive. Others blame
President Trump; had he lost, the left would have been appeased. Now they must kill us to win.
Death
Penalty for Kirk Assassin? Bad Idea. I am not opposed to using the death
penalty for specific heinous crimes. Certainly, it was warranted for Timothy McVeigh, and
Charlie Kirk's killing was indeed heinous. However, the alleged assassin is Tyler Robinson
and that gives me pause, because there are thousands of Tylers out there ready to make him a
martyr. This hate-filled, deluded, brainwashed community has been groomed deliberately by a
Machiavellian academia since the 1960s. There was a time when public education institutions
were staffed with unbiased professors and educated their students with genuine facts and encouraged
independent thought. That was back then.
You
and I Saw a Revival Meeting; the Left Saw Hate. There is a saying that exactly fits
the reactions of the right and the left to Charlie Kirk's memorial service: one screen, but two
movies. Over 100 million people tuned in to see at least some portion of the memorial
service, and many millions more will watch clips from various speeches or the commentary around the
event. A hundred thousand people, more or less, were inside the building, and tens of
thousands were at the site of the event and couldn't get a seat inside. [Advertisement]
[Tweet] Two planeloads of White House officials attended, including the President and Vice
President, both of whom spoke. The vast majority of the content focused on Charlie's faith in
Jesus Christ or his mission to evangelize for his beliefs in freedom, persuasion, or his
religion. [Tweet] His wife spoke of forgiveness. [Tweet with video clip]
FBI
Looking at Hand Gestures of Those at Speech Where Charlie Kirk Was Assassinated. The
FBI probe into the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk continues and includes
looking at people in the crowd and their hand gestures as possible signals to the shooter.
The Turning Point USA founder was murdered on September 10 at Utah Valley University (UVU)
during a speaking event. Within a day, authorities arrested Tyler Robinson, who confessed to
murdering Kirk because the 31-year-old supposedly spread "hate." Since then, the FBI has been
investigating leftist groups that might have been involved. One target is a militant
"transgender" outfit in Salt Lake City, Utah, whose "trans women" members not only enjoy getting
dolled up with curlers and lipstick but also playing with guns and bullets. FBI chief Kash
Patel said the agency is "meticulously investigating theories and questions."
Democratic
congresswoman accuses Charlie Kirk of 'advocating for a Christian nationalist government'.
A Democratic lawmaker accused conservative activist Charlie Kirk of advocating against the rights
of women and Black people, following the House's passage of a resolution honoring his life.
[Advertisement] "I take my oath to the Constitution seriously. I believe in free speech
and that the First Amendment wouldn't be necessary if it were only meant to cover language we
agreed with," Rep. Mikie Sherrill, D-N.J., a Democratic nominee for governor, said in a
statement. "It is meant to protect people like Charlie Kirk who present vile dissenting
views. But it is also meant to protect teachers, doctors and TV comedians who may express
views the president doesn't like." Sherrill argued that Kirk was "advocating for a Christian
nationalist government and to roll back the rights of women and Black people." "This flies in
the face of every value I hold dear and that I fight for," she said, adding that the "Constitution
protects free speech, even for those I vehemently oppose." Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) was
also among the House Democrats who voted against the resolution.
Substack
Star Heather Cox Richardson Told Her 2.7 Million Subscribers Charlie Kirk Was Killed By a
Right-Winger. She Still Hasn't Told Them the Truth. Heather Cox Richardson, the
liberal historian whose wildly popular Substack newsletter earns her millions of dollars a year,
told her 2.7 million subscribers that accused Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson was "not
someone on the left" and had instead "embraced the far right." It's a false
claim — contradicted daily by mounting evidence — but one that Richardson, a
tenured history professor at Boston College, has yet to correct. Writing on Sept. 14,
four days after Kirk's murder, Richardson accused "the radical right" of "working to distort the
country's understanding of what happened" to Kirk, who was fatally shot while speaking at Utah
Valley University at an event for his conservative activist group Turning Point USA. Richardson
took umbrage with Republicans blaming Democrats and leftists for the murder, and pushed the
conspiracy theory that Robinson was driven by dark forces even further to the right on the
political spectrum than Kirk.
The
Charlie Kirk Memorial [Updated]. The Charlie Kirk memorial was a phenomenon.
Something like 200,000 people showed up for it in Phoenix, and around 70,000 were inside the
stadium. Millions watched online and on television. I think we are only beginning to
see the consequences of Kirk's murder by Tyler Robinson. They may be more profound than we
could have guessed, eleven days ago. Here are a few observations on the memorial:
* It went on for a long, long time. People were filing into the stadium hours before it actually
got under way, with Christian music being performed from the stage. Some people must have
been in the stadium for five hours or more.
* The early speakers were largely ministers, the politicians came later. I think the
entire cabinet was present in the stadium, along with Congressional leaders. In that sense,
it was an extraordinary tribute.
* One of the more significant moments may have been when Elon Musk joined President Trump in
Trump's suite. They talked in a friendly manner and shook hands before Elon left.
I think everyone in the conservative movement hopes they will patch up their differences.
Maybe they have done so.
Crockett
Smears Charlie Kirk On Day Of Memorial, Rails Against 'Caucasian' Democrats. U.S.
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) echoed comments made by Rep. Ilhan Omar (R-MN) in slandering
the late Charlie Kirk, on the day 200,000 people are set to attend his memorial service, as a
racist who targeted "people of color." Crockett joined 57 other Democrats in voting
against a resolution honoring Kirk's life and legacy in the House earlier this week.
Democrats have repeatedly taken Kirk's quotes out of context by chopping up brief, 10-second
segments of long answers. [Inexplicably large open space] Notable examples include the false
claim that Kirk claimed black women do not have adequate brain processing power, a heavily-edited
clip to claim Kirk said gun deaths were necessary, and a number of outrageously edited quotes about
religion. Despite the fact that such claims have been thoroughly debunked by activists like
Amir Odom, false quotes attributed to Kirk have been cited as rationale for voting against the
resolution by Crockett and her far-left colleagues.
'Misinformation'
about Charlie Kirk is Now Free Speech? Tyler Robinson's trans-defensive murder was
the kind of suggestive hostility that the former president and his party have been inciting for
decades. Kirk was publicly executed, and on cue, the left has responded by using tragedy as a
platform to promote progressive ideas. After witnessing a 31-year-old husband and father of
two small children have his jugular vein sliced by a bullet, malicious individuals chose to exploit
the horror for entertainment on social media, partisan editorials, and late-night jokes. In
response, respectable business owners and many corporations have stated that such poor character
may not be the qualities they want in their workforce. [...] Isn't it interesting how the defenders
of "choice" have no problem denying the "right to choose" if it's an employer of a private
institution or corporation choosing to abort a person bereft of human kindness from their payroll?
Charlie
Kirk's Assassination Exposes The Vast Chasm Dividing American Society.
[Scroll down] Some of those disturbing statements I heard in the immediate aftermath of
Kirk's killing bear repeating:
• Carol Siemon, who stepped down as the top
prosecutor in Ingham County in 2022, which includes much of Lansing, Michigan's state capital,
mocked Kirk's lifelong defense of gun rights. "I'm terribly sorry when anyone is shot,"
Siemon wrote on X. "But I'm sure he doesn't mind because he has said that shootings and gun
deaths are a price he is willing to pay for nearly unfettered abilities to possess and use
firearms. I support sensible firearm control, and perhaps he will too."
• Chelsea Wolfe, a former national cycling athlete and so-called "transwoman" (i.e., a
delusional man), published an Instagram story that included a re-share of news of Kirk's
assassination with an animated caption that read "We did it!" and a selfie with a caption
that suggested Kirk was a "Nazi."
Those are just two examples of the frenzied hostility with which Democrats responded to Kirk's
assassination. We must reject entirely the evil, crazy people who demand that you accept them
and their ideas. Ultimately, it's a zero-sum game dressed up to be "reasonable and accommodating"
to anyone or any group that espouses our culture's destruction; there is no middle ground.
The
Kirk assassination whitewash. Andrew Kolvet, Charlie Kirk's longtime ally, captured
the essence of Jimmy Kimmel's suspension: if a conservative is killed, the soothsayers of the
progressive celebrity class will "whitewash" it. [...] Kimmel didn't just lie. He
whitewashed the assassination of a man targeted for exercising his religious and political voice by
falsely blaming the victim's allies for it. That is blaming the victim on a whole
new — and perverse — level. And now his defenders cloak him in the
false banner of "free speech" while ignoring that Kirk was killed for his speech. It is
Kafkaesque. ["]We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately
trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and
doing everything they can to score political points from it.["] In that sentence, Kimmel
effectively branded the assassin as part of MAGA and smeared Kirk's supporters as liars for denying
it. Yet authorities had already disclosed that the alleged killer followed a leftist
ideology. The lie was implicit but unmistakable: Kimmel whitewashed the murderer,
softened him into a "kid," and pinned the crime on Kirk's allies instead. None of this was
comedy. It was deliberate disinformation, disguised as entertainment — a malicious
hoax about a heinous crime that descended into group libel against the "MAGA gang." The
pejorative "gang" label was no accident either.
Why
The Feds Can't Trust Utah To Achieve The Death Penalty For Charlie Kirk's Murderer.
The assassination of Charlie Kirk cries out for the death penalty, which is rarely imposed by Utah
courts. This murder was premeditated and executed with vengeance, against an innocent victim,
merely for exercising his constitutional freedom of speech. This crime struck at the heart of
our republic and has made countless Americans who believe the same things Kirk did feel like they
too have targets on their backs. Like the anarchist assassin who shot President William
McKinley on Sept. 6, 1901, and was executed on Oct. 29 after receiving full due process,
Kirk's assassin must swiftly face the death penalty. [Advertisement] Before the
suspected Kirk assassin was arrested, Utah Gov. Spencer Cox pointed out that Utah still has
the death penalty. Utah law, however, makes it nearly impossible to apply. Utah has
executed only one person (an American Indian) in the last 15 years, and there are only four
criminals on Utah's death row, each of whom has been supported there at taxpayer expense for more
than 29 years.
The
Press Trot Out a Desperate Lie to Cover for Charlie Kirk's Assassin. As time
continues to pass following the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, the left is doing everything
it can to obfuscate the motive of the killer. The reason for that is obvious. Tyler
Robinson's ideology was not ambiguous. It was not a confusing hodgepodge of random
conspiratorial positions. Why he pulled the trigger is not some grand mystery.
[Advertisement] Robinson, who is now facing capital murder charges, is a left-winger with a
furry fetish and a trans-identifying boyfriend. He thought Kirk was a "fascist" who spread
"hate" and thus was irredeemable. It was a political killing carried out by a person who
believed he had a license to shoot those who disagreed with him on things like biological
reality. That reality is very inconvenient for the Democratic Party, which is desperate to
deflect its role in inciting such violence. Which brings me to the latest lie, which is that
investigators have found no link between Robinson's motive and left-wing ideology.
ABC's
Jon Karl: 'The Murder of Charlie Kirk Was Not a Political Act'. ABC This Week usually
opens with some manner of editorial commentary from its rotating hosts. Today was not the
exception. Jon Karl opened the broadcast by rightfully and poignantly condemning the brutal
assassination of TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk. But there is one singular sentence that is a
cause for concern and merits observation. Watch the statement below in its full context, with
Karl saying: "The murder of Charlie Kirk was not a political act." [Video clip]
[Transcript] Except that the assassination of Charlie Kirk was absolutely a political
act. There is testimony of the shooter expressing alienation with his family's conservative
politics, particularly his father. There are the shooter's multiple statements regarding
"hate." There are the scrawlings on the bullet casings, the shooter's relationship with a
transgender individual, and the multiple text messages between them.
The Editor says...
An assassination by definition is a political act. A network TV news anchor should know that.
Borking
Charlie Kirk. Teddy Kennedy became the lion of the Senate and of American
liberalism. His legislative accomplishments have done much to shape the United States into
the form he desired. We will be living with, and taking the measure of, his legacy for a long
time to come. Certainly in one respect, Senator Kennedy's contribution to our public life has
been indisputably negative. In the role he played opposing the nomination of Robert Bork to
the Supreme Court in 1987, Senator Kennedy was responsible for a willfully false and remarkably
coarse attack on Bork. When Ronald Reagan nominated then-D.C. Circuit Judge Bork to the Court
upon the retirement of Lewis Powell, Senator Kennedy had prepared to do battle. Anticipating
the nomination of Bork or someone like him to fill Powell's seat, Kennedy aide Jeffrey Blattner had
written a statement denouncing the nomination. Immediately following the announcement of
Bork's nomination on July 1, 1987, Senator Kennedy took to the floor of the Senate to make the
statement Blattner had written: ["]Robert Bork's America is a land in which women
would be forced into back-alley abortions, blacks would sit at segregated lunch counters, rogue
police could break down citizens' doors in midnight raids, schoolchildren could not be taught about
evolution, writers and artists could be censored at the whim of the Government, and the doors of
the Federal courts would be shut on the fingers of millions of citizens for whom the judiciary
is — and is often the only — protector of the individual rights that are the
heart of our democracy....["]
America
propagandizing Americans. Think back to September 12, 2001, and how unified
America was in its patriotic fervor and resolve. You likely held friendships and familial
relationships with people who felt very differently about any number of current affairs.
However, you were Americans first and still broke bread around the Thanksgiving table with joy and
gratitude. That is why it strikes at the heart of America, at the polarization on display
when a young man like Charlie Kirk, full of youth, vigor, a sound mind, and a heart for
conversation, is struck down in front of an audience of millions. By this point, we are all
intimately familiar with the dichotomy of extreme sorrow for our nation on one side and the
jubilation on the other that has seen thousands announce their utter lack of humanity in the face
of this tragedy.
From
One Leftist False Kirk Narrative To the Next. Somewhere in the leftwing command
bunker, false narratives about Kirk's murder, replete with talking points, are issued and
disseminated through the network news, social media, Hollywood, and academia — at least
until their party-line absurdity demands a new concoction. Here are the daily, changing
leftist narratives over the past few days: [Seven examples.]
Three
High School Students Stand Up for Charlie Kirk, Call for Firing Teacher Who Celebrated His
Murder. Three Rhode Island high school students stood up to their teacher after he
allegedly bashed Charlie Kirk in a TikTok tirade. Amid public backlash, officials placed
Barrington High School teacher Benjamin Fillo on administrative leave, WLNE-TV in Massachusetts
reported Tuesday. In a deranged TikTok rant, Fillo called Kirk a "piece of garbage" while making
numerous unfounded claims about the late conservative activist. [Tweet with video clip]
The
'Study' You're Citing About Right-Wing Violence Is Full Of Fake Data. After Charlie
Kirk was assassinated last week, conservatives noted that most political violence comes from the
left. The left bristles at this fact and has responded by dramatically padding the numbers to
pretend the reverse is true. Consider a Sept. 12 piece from The Economist claiming,
"extremists on both left and right commit violence, although more incidents appear to come from
right-leaning attackers." Right up front, the piece admits it used data "largely compiled by
researchers whom sceptical (sic) conservatives would probably dismiss as biased." The
disclaimer is meant to inoculate The Economist's audience to its sloppy reporting, as if challenges
from conservatives will somehow prove The Economist's accuracy. Yes, readers should be beyond
skeptical of the source in that piece, The Prosecution Project. Its website claims to
"track[] and provid[e] analysis of felony criminal cases involving illegal political violence,
terrorism, and extremism occurring in the United States since 1990." The founder and executive
director of the Prosecution Project is Michael Loadenthal, although the links naming the website's
leadership were broken Friday, meaning no names were visible. Google had not yet scrubbed
Loadenthal's name from searches.
Democrat
pushes sick claim that Charlie Kirk wanted to 'roll back the rights' of black people and
women. A congresswoman reversed course to condemn Charlie Kirk just hours after
voting to honor him. Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-N.J.) was one of 95 Democrats who voted in
favor of honoring Kirk's "life and legacy" on Friday in a House resolution. The vote came
just over a week after Kirk was assassinated, allegedly by a young male who was dating a
transgender person. In total, the resolution received support from both Democrats and
Republicans with a 310-58 vote. While 58 Democrats voted against and another 22 did not
vote at all, Sherrill's about-face afterward was all the more confusing considering that she voted
in support of the resolution. In statement posted to her X account, Sherril wrote that while
she supports free speech, she still thinks Kirk has "vile" views.
Leftist
Media Lies About An Assassin. Given the national anguish and pain over the
assassination of Charlie Kirk, you might think that the leftist big media would at least be
treading softly right now, especially given the overwhelming evidence that's already been made
public about Kirk's alleged assassin. But you would be wrong. We've already addressed
the lies and exaggerations told about Kirk to somehow justify his murder. Now the left is
trying to come up with a counter-narrative about his assassin. Kirk wasn't murdered by an
unhinged leftist; he was killed by a MAGA adherent. It's a lie on stilts.
An
Ideology Whose Logic Leads to Murder. [Scroll down] The core tenet of
repressive academic safetyism — that officially designated student victim groups are
dangerously vulnerable to meanie "haters" — is laughably delusional. There have
been few more pampered and richly endowed individuals than early twenty-first century American
students. Yet they are encouraged to think of themselves as "unsafe" by the very adults who
should be leading them toward a grounded understanding of reality. And that is because the
adults on campus are even more invested than students in maintaining the hegemony of
leftism — a belief system enabled in part by the conceits of fragility and dangerous
"haters." Equally ludicrous: the notion that it is conservatives like Kirk who hate and
who are "intolerant," and not the campus scourges. Whole academic disciplines are organized
around vilifying whites for white privilege and white supremacy. The banshee mobs who shut
down conservative guest speakers do not radiate tolerance and good will. And now that
counterfactual ideology of safetyism has spread widely and has reached its logical lethal
conclusion. Kirk was gunned down by a sniper's bullet after cheerfully tossing out MAGA hats
to a crowd of thousands at Utah Valley University.
Charlie
Kirk and the people who cheered from the sidelines. [Scroll down] But the
situation just gets more dreadful when you remember that for every American who's actually
committed a political murder this century, there are hundreds of others who have celebrated Kirk's
assassination on their social media (one database has already collected thirty thousand such
messages). And for everyone who posted unqualified celebrations (which are not rare! My
own employer has already fired three such people!) there are probably dozens or a hundred more who
have posted things like "I will never condone violence, but..." where the "but" is followed by a
dozen or so reasons why Charlie Kirk was a Bad Person and nobody should be getting emotional about
what happened to him and his family. I know this because I saw multiple such posts from my
own left-leaning social media friends. And these post aren't just coming from low-status
attention-grabbers.
No
one should listen to Obama when he lectures about free speech and cancel culture.
Most of the journalists, and many of the others, who are whining endlessly about [Jimmy] Kimmel
being cancelled, intentionally leave out the quote that caused the dismissal. There is
nothing funny about lying to your viewers and saying that the leftist lunatic who killed Kirk was a
"MAGA" person. It is not good for organizations when teachers, doctors, bankers, government
bureaucrats or anyone else openly supports or has no problem when someone they disagree with is
killed. Who else would they support killing because they disagree with them? Kimmel and
others certainly have the freedom of speech to say whatever they want, no matter how despicable,
and organizations have the freedom to fire those who would harm the reputation of their business.
Growing
Terrorists — The Marxist Revolution In America. Charlie Kirk is dead. He was
killed by an assassin because he spoke the truth and advocated for reason and free speech over
dogma and blind obedience. For that, he had to die. Charlie was killed by a single
bullet fired by one man. More broadly, though, he was murdered because he opposed the ongoing
Marxist revolution in this country. That revolution has been underway now for many
years. It is well funded, and it is well on its way to gaining control over our institutions,
our government, and our citizenry. Like all Marxist revolutions, this one seeks to destroy
the non-governmental institutions that can organize resistance to its agenda — the
family and the church. It also seeks to legitimize the use of violence in pursuit of its
goals. Marxists do not support free speech. They murder it.
118
House Democrats Refuse To Vote For Resolution Condemning Charlie Kirk's Assassination.
Some Democrats claim to want "unity" in the wake of the far-left political violence they fomented,
but it is hard to believe they want anything other than to be absolved of responsibility when 118
of them in the House refuse to officially condemn the assassination of Charlie Kirk. The
House of Representatives passed House Resolution 719, condemning Kirk's assassination and "Honoring
the life and legacy of Charles 'Charlie' James Kirk," on Friday 310-58. While 95 Democrats voted in
favor of the resolution, more than half of the Democrats in the House either voted against it or
decided not to support it by voting "present" or not voting at all. [Advertisement] The
resolution language is relatively short and should be uncontroversial to people who do not revel in
political violence: [...]
Congressional
Black Caucus Reject Resolution Honoring Charlie Kirk. A House resolution [HR.719] was
offered today recognizing the tragic murder of Charlie Kirk and honoring his legacy.
Forty-two members of the Congressional Black Caucus voted against the resolution [Roll Call Here],
4 CBC members voted present, 4 CBC members didn't vote, once again affirming their intent to divide
the country based on race. [...] The final vote was 310-58 (42 nays from CBC), with 95 Democrats
supporting the resolution, which was brought forward by Speaker Mike Johnson.
House
approves resolution honoring Charlie Kirk with dozens of Democrats opposed. The House
overwhelmingly passed a resolution honoring conservative activist Charlie Kirk on Friday, but a
significant number of Democrats voted against it, highlighting the deepening political divide in
the wake of his assassination. The resolution, which praised "the life and legacy" of Kirk,
passed the Republican-controlled House with 310 votes in favor. While 95 Democrats
supported the resolution, 58 voted against it and 38 voted "present," effectively
abstaining. Republicans had warned ahead of the vote that no one should oppose the measure,
but many Democrats said they felt Kirk's death had been politicized and the resolution elevated
views they disagreed with.
Turning
Point USA Contributor Unmasks State Farm Stadium Vendor Who Celebrated Charlie Kirk's Assassination.
A State Farm Stadium vendor has come under fire for celebrating Charlie Kirk's death ahead of his
funeral at the venue, RadarOnline.com can exclusively report. Ivette "Lola" Olivares operates
three Lola's Tacos locations inside the Glendale, Arizona, stadium and has been bringing her
recipes to residents of the Phoenix area since 2018. Now, mourners attending Kirk's memorial
are warning each other ahead of the event not to give the concessionaire their business for calling
him a "fascist." [Photo] Former friend, workout partner, and Turning Point USA contributor
Paige Roux claimed in a Tuesday, September 16, Instagram video that Olivares was "publicly
celebrating his assassination, along with continued absolutely evil stories" about Kirk via her
private Facebook page, which she has since deleted. Lola's Tacos' social media pages have
also been deactivated.

Omar Criticizes Those Championing Late Charlie Kirk. US Representative Ilhan Omar

Minnesota, on Saturday, September 13, footage shows. More than 100 filed into the Elim
Lutheran Church for the gathering, where bag checks and metal detectors were implemented as part of
a heightened security effort amid the wave of recent political violence in Minnesota and the US.
Almost an hour into the meeting, a man criticized Omar for comments she made on Mehdi Hasan's
Zeteo News regarding various right-leaning figures.

The rest of the article is replete with profanity, as you might expect.
Where
Did Jimmy Kimmel Get the Idea that Charlie Kirk's Assassin was Right Wing? There's an
ongoing debate, happening almost exclusively on the far left, about whether or not Jimmy Kimmel
even said what everyone else thinks he said. Rolling Stone is leading this charge.
[Advertisement] [Excerpt] This is apparently the exact defense that Kimmel himself was
planning to use on Wednesday night. It was after learning about his plan to defend his
comments as being taken out of context that the suits at Disney decided to pull his show
indefinitely. But most people, even most people on the left, have been more honest about what
Kimmel seemed to be saying.
Report:
Texas High School Parents Group Doxxing Teens Organizing Turning Point USA Chapter. A
conservative Harris County parents group reported that a left-leaning group published the social
media content of high school students who are organizing a Turning Point USA(TPUSA) chapter in the
Spring Branch school district. The leftist group, "Be the Change SBISD," reportedly sent
messages to its more than 700 members calling for action against sponsoring teachers and the
students. [Advertisement] The Harris County chapter of Moms for Liberty posted a report
on social media saying that a "TPUSA Club America" high school chapter's members were "DOXXED" by
adults by publishing their social media content to their members in an apparent attempt to keep the
school district from allowing the club to meet. The Moms for Liberty group identified the
left-leaning group as Be the Change SBISD — Spring Branch Independent School
District. [Advertisement] The Be the Change group allegedly infiltrated a private chat
group and published their content to its members.
An
Unavoidable American Conflict. Charlie Kirk's assassination by a radical young
"all-American" leftist demonstrates that the ideological crisis that's raging in education,
politics, and pop culture has irreversibly escalated. His death marks the beginning of a new
chapter for America. We've crossed a cultural Rubicon; the nation is irreparably divided by
competing moral visions, national unity is forever lost, and conflict is unavoidable. Kirk's
death was as tragic as it was predictable. Many lay the blame on evil, but evil came in a
virulent form of social Marxism, equity, that's cloaked in the woke cultural rizz of transgender
rights, social justice, equality, fairness, tolerance, Critical Race Theory, DIE, anti-racism,
white supremacy, systemic inequality, and patriarchy, to name a few. It's a toxic
philosophical cocktail, an expansion of classical Marxism transformed by Critical Theory and
post-modern philosophy, that's become the best of the worst of what the world's deadliest ideology,
the gospel according to Karl Marx, has to offer.
Dems
Celebrating Charlie Kirk's Murder Spark Historic Party-Switching Wave to GOP. The
assassination of Charlie Kirk has become a defining moment in American politics, and not just
because of the tragedy itself. When Tyler Robinson gunned down Kirk last week at Utah Valley
University, he didn't just take a life; he exposed a shocking reality: Some on the left
celebrated the attack. That reaction has now triggered what's being called the "Charlie Kirk
effect," a historic wave of Democrats abandoning their party and joining the GOP.
[Advertisement] The numbers tell the story better than any pundit could. According to a
report from The New York Post, across states like Florida and New Mexico, voter registration
offices are reporting unprecedented surges in people switching from Democrat to Republican.
These are Americans who watched the left's reaction to Kirk's murder and decided they'd seen enough.
The
Left Laughed at Charlie Kirk's Assassination. The assassination of Charlie Kirk, a
conservative activist who had become one of the most visible defenders of the America First agenda,
was more than a human tragedy. It was an eruption of violence against a man who embodied the
very values the right had long felt punished for holding. On September 10, Kirk stood
before roughly 3,000 supporters at Utah Valley University. The rally was celebratory, with
the 31-year-old tossing a hat to the crowd just moments before a sniper's bullet tore through his
neck. He collapsed in a pool of blood as chaos unfolded. Panicked attendees screamed,
security rushed to carry his body away, first responders flooded the scene. The outdoor
gathering, meant to be a testament to free political expression, became instead a reminder of how
fragile safety could be for conservative voices. What followed was almost as disturbing as
the act itself: public celebrations of his death. Within hours, individuals in positions of
authority, trust, and influence openly said shocking things about Kirk's assassination. These
were not fringe voices hidden in internet corners. They were professionals, academics,
journalists, and government employees.
Charlie
Kirk Is on the Ballot in 2026. The Charlie Kirk assassination upended a lot of the
common tenets of politics, not to mention the unsaid rules of a civil society. Not too long
ago, it was universally considered taboo to celebrate the death of anyone, yet thanks to social
media and the Left, we've all seen people we know, people who teach our children and treat our
health, dance and sing and celebrate a murder. [Advertisement] The vast majority of
Americans, usually silent at times like this, are feeling a percolating rage build up. Many
everyday Americans have decided to channel this energy by reporting the online murder celebrants to
their employers, leading to many getting fired. This is unprecedented, and it's just the
beginning. Conservatives don't riot in the streets and loot stores when something really bad
happens. They volunteer. They organize food drives. They tend to go to church and
have prayer vigils. Truly peaceful ones. Blue cities don't have to board up stores and
force their police force to wear riot gear when something bad happens to conservatives. This
has been well noted this past week.
MSNBC
Reporter Claims With Straight Face That Internet Didn't Celebrate Charlie Kirk Assassination.
MSNBC senior enterprise reporter Brandy Zadronzy claimed Tuesday that the assassination of Turning
Point USA founder Charlie Kirk was not celebrated online despite multiple reports showing
otherwise. Celebrations of the assassination took place in various social media venues
online, especially on platforms like BlueSky, leading to numerous people, including MSNBC political
analyst Matthew Dowd and Washington Post columnist Karen Attiah, being fired over their reactions
to the killing. Zadronzy claimed that the claims of celebration were a means of "grappling"
with the killing.
It's
Deeper Than Mental Illness. Maybe you spent time last week perusing X postings
related to Charlie Kirk's assassination. Aside from the many accolades, conservative
influencers did fine jobs identifying left-wingers who not only celebrated Kirk's assassination,
but offered attaboys to Tyler Robinson, the triggerman. Some even called for more
violence. If you didn't have time earlier, scroll through the Libs of TikTok's and the
Vigilant Fox's threads, for starters. You'll get an eyeful. "Somebody had to do it"
wasn't an uncommon refrain. Who, this side of hell, delights in an act of murder? What
was striking was that many of the posts featured females. Was that the result of sampling
biases? Not likely. It was self-promotion. Call it malignant feminist
self-empowerment. Not that there aren't Charlie Kirk haters among "progressive"
males — his killer is an XY, after all, who lived with a trans — but
left-of-center females dominated the posted videos. Why so?
Blame
Social Media, Guns, Vacuums — Anything but Transgenders. The biggest
development coming out of Charlie Kirk's murder last week is that the gun isn't to blame.
This time, "social media" did it. On Sunday, The New York Times published an idiotic op-ed to
that effect by Nathan Taylor Pemberton, who "writes about extremism and American politics," and
whose last article for The Nation magazine was presciently titled: "Why the Right Fantasizes
About Death and Destruction." So we know he's a fair broker. Long after it had been
established that Kirk's shooter, Tyler Robinson, was in a romantic relationship with a transgender,
Pemberton proclaimed: "The only thing that can be said conclusively about Mr. Robinson,
at this moment, is that he was a chronically online, white American male." Really? Was
that the only thing that stuck out about the accused shooter?
Coward! Suspect
in Charlie Kirk's killing feared being shot by police, sheriff says. Tyler Robinson,
the Utah man accused of assassinating Charlie Kirk, was afraid of being shot by police and
eventually agreed to surrender only if it was done peacefully, a sheriff involved with taking him
into custody said Wednesday. Robinson appeared quiet and somber when he arrived with his
parents to turn himself last Thursday at the Washington County Sheriff's Office, a day after Kirk
was shot and killed at Utah Valley University, said Sheriff Nate Brooksby. "He didn't want a
big SWAT team at his parent's house or his apartment," said the sheriff, who was only involved with
the surrender and not the broader investigation. "He was truly fearful about being shot by
law enforcement."
Anyone
Who Blames 'Both Sides' After Charlie Kirk's Murder Is A Liar And Coward. "I'd like
to see [the nation] heal. But we're dealing with a radical left group of lunatics, and they
don't play fair, and they never did," President Donald Trump told NBC News. A member of my
extended family posted a reel on Instagram immediately after Charlie Kirk's assassination in which
he wrote: "He had it coming. Charlie Kirk was a monster." This is a person who
spends all day posting reels about how Trump is an evil fascist Nazi Hitler and prays that he dies
soon. [Advertisement] An old friend of my family said this to one of my siblings moments
after Kirk's murder: "Good. Now there's one less of them to deal with." Does that
mean he wants my sibling and me shot dead, too? That would be two less of them to deal
with. I'm supposed to want "unity" with people like this? I'd rather have them stay at
least 50 yards away from my property. And now, the Official Party of Wanton
Assassination is busy making the case that there is extreme political violence "on both
sides." Immediately after the shooting, buffoonish Democrats like Hakeem Jeffries, Chuck
Schumer, and Elizabeth Warren marched out to the microphones with convoluted messages about coming
together and stopping violence on both sides.
Liberal
arts college student cites Mao in video calling for more political assassinations after Charlie
Kirk. A liberal arts college student is backtracking after she posted a video calling
for more political assassinations and citing the influential thought of a murderous communist
dictator. Julia Xu said in the video posted on social media that not everyone is entitled to
free speech and that some people should be afraid of speaking their opinions in public. She
said she made the comments in class the day after the death of Kirk. "We need to bring back
political assassinations. I don't feel bad, and I don't think that everyone deserves the
right to free speech," Xu said in the video. "I think some people should be afraid to express
their opinion in public." She went on to say that she had been studying about the 1949
communist takeover in China and how violent revolution liberated millions of people and millions of
women. Xu quoted Chairman Mao for advocating that free speech should not be a right of the
enemies of revolution like imperialists and capitalists.

Education Dept. Investigating Every Teacher Celebrating Charlie Kirk's Assassination: 'Vile
Behavior'. The Florida Department of Education is vowing to investigate "every
educator who engages in this vile, sanctionable behavior" celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination,
Florida Commissioner of Education Anastasios Kamoutsas said in a letter following the
tragedy. Kamoutsas wrote in the letter that he has seen several "despicable comments" made by
educators in Florida following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.
He made clear that these individuals do not reflect the "vast majority" of teachers in Florida, and
he will be "conducting an investigation of every educator who engages in this vile, sanctionable behavior."

Professors: How Campuses Normalized Violent Left-wing Radicals.
[Scroll down] When administrators redefine the words they dislike as harmful, they

becomes the lived experience of liberation. The hiring record above did not cause a gunman to
pull a trigger in Orem. But it taught generations of students and faculty which kinds of
law-breaking are glorious, which kinds are tolerated, and which viewpoints are treated as
existential threats. That cultural matters on campus. The behavior we saw this week
did not appear from nowhere. It was learned... and it was taught.
Jimmy
Kimmel Blatantly Broke FCC Rules And Brendan Carr Was Right To Notice. FCC Chairman
Brendan Carr has done the impossible: He got ABC to consider the tone of its often
offensively partisan programming and make a change. Disney-owned ABC abruptly pulled Jimmy
Kimmel Live! from its broadcast lineup late Wednesday, hopefully ending Kimmel's ugly career.
The move is more likely in response to Carr's threat of consequences for ABC, issued on The Benny
Show podcast with Benny Johnson, than Kimmel's unfunny, untrue monologue insulting the conservative
movement while it mourns the senseless loss of one of its brightest lights. "We hit some new
lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered
Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political
points from it," Kimmel said. [Tweet] It was a tone-deaf pack of lies. The alleged
assassin is not MAGA. At 22 he is not a kid. And he has numerous overtly leftist
characteristics. Kimmel tried to throw his viewers off the scent of the truth, and, with a
sickening mirth, kicked hurting people while they are down. The few fools who still watched
his show surely assumed his words were true. Many people get their news from so-called comedy
monologues and assume the premise of the "joke" is at least accurate. Kimmel straight-up lied
to his audience, violating FCC regulations that prohibit news distortion or a hoax.
Democrats
Still Believe Charlie Kirk's Killer Was Right-Wing. I think most if not all of our
readers are under no illusions about who murdered Charlie Kirk last week or why. The evidence
has been coming in for days, culminating in the revelation yesterday that Tyler Robinson confessed
to the crime in a text to his boyfriend and then said he committed the murder because he was tired
of Charlie Kirk's "hate." But you have to give the far left credit. Starting last week,
they set their minds on convincing as many people as possible that Kirk's killer was a Republican
and polling shows it worked.
Normal
People have had enough. Jimmy Kimmel's basement-rated Late Night show was
"indefinitely" pulled off the air Wednesday night by Kimmel's fellow Democrats at ABC, which is
owned by the Disney Grooming Syndicate (which is also run by Democrats). Democrats suspended
Jimmy Kimmel. [Advertisement] [Tweet] ABC was obviously reacting to two groups of
affiliates — Sinclair and Nexstar — who made clear they had no intention of
broadcasting Kimmel's show for some time to come. My guess — and this is just a
guess — is that Sinclair has ensured Kimmel is gone forever with the demand that
1) Kimmel apologize to Charlie Kirk's family and 2) make a donation to Turning Point
USA. Kimmel will never do that, so we welcome him to Substack.
The
Murder of Charlie Kirk Was Not a George Floyd Moment. Charles Kirk was not George
Floyd. He was a law-abiding, religiously devout, political organizer, happily married with
two children. Kirk was a media figure and head of a huge 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose brand was
calmly debating students who disagreed with him. Floyd should not have died while in police
custody. But Floyd's comorbidities were many. When arrested, he was under the influence
of fentanyl and methamphetamine, with a heart condition and recent Covid infection. He was a
career felon, with eight previous criminal convictions, who had in the past staged a violent
home-invasion robbery and pointed a knife at the abdomen of one of the female occupants. In
contrast, when Kirk was killed, he was not on drugs. He was not resisting police
officers. And he was not trying to pass counterfeit currency. Instead, he eschewed
violence and tried to engage in polite dialogue with students of different views.

Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, dropped that bombshell Tuesday during a Senate Judiciary
Committee regular hearing on the oversight of the FBI, along with a revolting new document.

investigating or intending to investigate in the large-scale, multi-year political weaponization
operation named Arctic Frost, a joint investigation using resources from the FBI, Department of
Justice, and Office of Inspector General.
Netanyahu
Pushes Back on 'Monstrous' Lie Linking Israel to Charlie Kirk Assassination. Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered a statement Thursday lambasting critics who believe
Israel is linked to the assassination of Charlie Kirk. In the wake of Kirk's death, several
prominent commentators have baselessly insinuated that Kirk's evolving views on Israel may have
played a role in his assassination last week. "Somebody has fabricated a monstrous big
lie — that Israel had something to do with Charlie Kirk's horrific murder," Netanyahu
said in a video posted on social media. "This is insane, it is false, it is outrageous," he
added. Netanyahu said Kirk sent him a supportive letter soon before he died and noted Kirk's
love for Israel and the Jewish people. He also said he would have "welcomed" a disagreement
between Kirk and himself on Israel's conduct. "Now, if Charlie disagreed with a policy of
mine or a decision here and there, not only did I not mind, I welcomed it," Netanyahu said.
"This is the essence of Charlie, this is the essence of a free country, it's exactly what Charlie
stood for." Netanyahu speculated that Qatar could be funding the false claims connecting
Israel to Kirk's death.
Oberlin
student says we 'need to bring back political assassinations' in wake of Charlie Kirk
murder. A radical leftist student at Oberlin College casually called for political
assassinations to continue in the wake of the targeted killing of political activist Charlie Kirk
last week, according to an online post she made. "We need to bring back political
assassinations," said Julia Xu in a social media post, where her handle is
@bringbacktheguillotine. "I don't feel bad and I don't think that everyone deserves the right
to free speech. Some people should be afraid to express their opinion in public."
Weaponizing
Tragedy: Beijing Is Exploiting Charlie Kirk's Assassination Online. As
conservatives in the U.S. and around the world remember Charlie Kirk, American leftists are
celebrating his gruesome assassination. Individuals associated with Antifa and other
left-wing organizations have been working overtime to spew hate online and on college campuses,
going as far as threatening to assassinate other conservative figures. [Advertisement] But
there is another malign actor that has exploited this assassination for its own benefit, one that

Spencer Cox mentioned during a press conference that some of the U.S.'s top foreign enemies were
spreading disinformation about Charlie's murder to encourage violence. Beijing, of course,
denied this. [Video clip]
Kirk's
assassination: The left's big denial. In short, how would one describe a
"fascist" without calling him and, by extension, his supporters, "fascist"? Quite the
dilemma. At this point, it's probably useless to point out how Adolf Hitler, unlike President
Donald Trump, murdered his political enemies; controlled the media and the arts through censorship,
intimidation and propaganda; arrested and detained adversaries indefinitely and without trial;
murdered 6 million Jews and 5 million others; and ignited a world war that resulted in an
estimated 50 million civilians dead worldwide. Virtually every policy Trump enacts or
attempts to enact ends up in court. He appeals unfavorable district court decisions, many of
which end up at the Supreme Court, where Trump usually wins. Still, Trump's critics call him
a "tyrant" and a "dictator."
Divorcing
the Left because what are our choices? Leftist and Democrats (combined here) are not
going to come around to normalcy. They have their mind set and it's carved in stone.
They hate MAGA, they hate free speech unless it's theirs, they hate Trump, they hate Christians,
they hate conservatives, they hate law enforcement, many hate white people, they hate people who
claim the truth of men and women. They hate Christians and often, Jews, but never Muslims or
Wiccans. They hate everything we on the Right stand for. My question is, "What
now?" It is clear we can no longer work together. This has been clear for quite a
while, worsened by the Charlie Kirk assassination. We can't even talk to each other.
Barack
Obama Weighs In On The Charlie Kirk Assassination. Former President Barack Obama
starts listing out the things he disagreed with Charlie Kirk on before pointing blame at the Trump
White House for political division. Obama also patted himself on the back, claiming his White

Charlie
Kirk and Donald Trump Get the Last Laugh as ABC Cancels Jimmy Kimmel. President
Donald Trump responded to the cancellation of Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Wednesday after ABC and
its parent company Disney pulled the late-night program, coinciding with the resurfacing of a
years-old tweet from Charlie Kirk that dismissed the host. [...] Kirk had remarked on X in 2017,
"Jimmy Kimmel isn't funny." His observation gained attention again on social media as users
reacted to the network's decision to remove Kimmel following backlash over his on-air comments
about Kirk's assassination.
How
to Deal With University Ghouls. For 40 years I've been on the college campus,
first as a student, then as a doctoral candidate and teaching assistant, and then as a
professor. I'm appalled and thoroughly disgusted by the number of teachers and professors
across the country who, using their own names and even their school affiliation, have publicly
celebrated the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Charlie was murdered in a particularly gruesome
fashion in front of his wife and infant children. Anyone celebrating his murder is quite
simply a clinically deranged psychopath who doesn't belong in a school among children and young
people. Given their sheer number, however, rooting out all of them by demanding schools
terminate these schizoids one-by-one simply isn't possible.
Abbott:
We Will Decertify Teachers Who Cheer Kirk's Assassination. Too far? Or are
nearly 200 Texas educators merely suffering the consequences of their own actions? Greg
Abbott wants to ensure that those consequences really stick. Not only does he want punitive
action against educators who "endorsed" Charlie Kirk's assassination and/or more violence, he wants
to make sure they don't work in education in Texas. Ever. [Advertisement] The
eyes of Texas are upon the teachers' social media: [Tweet]
Can
people be fired for celebrating Kirk assassination? Yes, attorneys say. Can
employers fire employees for celebrating a political assassination? The short answer is yes,
attorneys say, especially by private companies in right to work states. As hundreds of
Americans are reporting they've been fired for posting comments on their "private social media
pages" celebrating Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk's assassination, many are arguing they
have the right to do so under the First Amendment. According to U.S. Attorney General Pam
Bondi, hate speech and inciting violence is not protected speech. In recent remarks to media
outlets, she said, "There's free speech and then there's hate speech. There is no place,
especially now, especially after what happened to Charlie, in our society." She also said of
the Department of Justice, "We will absolutely target you, go after you, if you are targeting
anyone with hate speech. And that's across the aisle."
Tyler
Robinson Plotted Killing Charlie Kirk for Over a Week. Tyler Robinson, the
22-year-old suspect charged with aggravated murder in the assassination of pro-life conservative
activist Charlie Kirk, had been plotting the attack for more than a week, according to authorities
who described a chilling sequence of events leading to the fatal shooting at Utah Valley
University. Robinson arrived on campus more than four hours before the shooting on
Sept. 10, surveillance footage showed. He allegedly positioned himself on a rooftop,
armed with a high-powered Mauser 98 .30-06 bolt-action rifle equipped with a mounted scope, and
fired the shot that struck Kirk during his appearance as part of Turning Point USA's "American
Comeback" tour. Kirk, 31, a prominent pro-life advocate and co-founder of the conservative
youth organization Turning Point USA, was killed instantly, sending students scrambling for cover
in what Utah Gov. Spencer Cox called a "political assassination."
When
Charlie Kirk Died, So Did the Democratic Party. What's Coming Next Is Even Worse.
When the Democratic Party swung to the far left, it created an opening for an outsider like Trump
to champion the plight of all the Americans left behind. This became the backbone of the MAGA
movement, and if the Democrats had half a brain, they would've realized this a [...] lot
sooner. But they didn't. They figured that Donald Trump was a bizarre, historic
anomaly — a master propagandist with an inexplicable, Svengali-like hold over a gullible
audience — and if they got rid of Trump, they'd get rid of the movement. They
didn't understand that MAGA was as much about the left as it was about the right. So they
tried character assassination. Criminal charges. A nonstop #Resistance campaign.
They even called him Hitler, a fascist, a dictator, a Nazi, and an existential threat to democracy.
Why does UCLA have a "Race and Equity Director" anyway? That's so 1980. UCLA
Places Race and Equity Director Who Celebrated Charlie Kirk Assassination on Leave.
The University of California, Los Angeles has placed its controversial race and equity director,
Johnathan Perkins, on leave after he celebrated conservative commentator Charlie Kirk's
assassination in a series of social media posts. Perkins, a veteran diversity consultant who
worked in the Office of the General Counsel at Harvard University before joining UCLA in 2019, took
to left-wing X copycat Bluesky on Friday to disparage Kirk. In one post, he responded to a
user who called Kirk the right's "Rush Limbaugh replacement" with the message, "Yup. Good
riddance, both." In another, he wrote, "It is OKAY to be happy when someone who hated you and
called for your people's death dies — even if they are murdered."
Biden's
FBI Targeted Charlie Kirk's Turning Point USA. FBI Director Kash Patel faces
questions during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Tuesday morning, during which Sen. Chuck
Grassley (R-Iowa) revealed that whistleblower revelations showed that Joe Biden's FBI targeted not
just Donald Trump, but a wide swath of Republican organizations — including Charlie
Kirk's Turning Point USA. [Advertisement] Grassley reminded Patel of the FBI's recent
history of political weaponization, pointing directly to an operation known as "Arctic Frost."
"At your nomination hearing, I made public records that whistleblowers provide me about Arctic
Frost," Grassley said. "Arctic Frost was the FBI case opened and approved by anti-Trump FBI
Agent Thibeau. Arctic Frost then became Jack Smith's elector case against then-citizen Trump
and now-President Trump." According to Grassley, newly obtained records show that the Arctic
Frost probe was far broader than previously known. "The case was expanded to Republican
organizations," Grassley explained. "Some examples of the group that Wray and FBI sought to
place under political investigation included the Republican National Committee, Republican Attorney
General's Association, and various Trump political groups."
Whistleblower
Report: FBI's 'Arctic Frost' Targeted 92 GOP Groups Including Charlie Kirk's
TPUSA. Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) has released explosive new whistleblower
records showing the FBI's "Arctic Frost" investigation extended far beyond Donald
Trump — targeting 92 Republican groups and individuals, including Charlie Kirk's Turning
Point USA. [Tweet] [...] Grassley said he and Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) are making the
documents public so "the entire country [can] see... what government can do when various agencies
have a political agenda." Grassley's comments and the transcript also reveal a troubling
approach to the prosecution of Peter Navarro: [...] The disclosures allege sweeping surveillance
powers — hundreds of subpoenas, dozens of device seizures, and even Trump's Twitter
account were used under the Arctic Frost umbrella. Critics are calling it a textbook case of
partisan weaponization.
Tyler
Robinson — the trans-allied assassin. [H]ere's the latest the Charlie Kirk
assassin, Tyler Robinson, his transgender boyfriend, and apparent knowledge of the impending
assassination by a handful of their transgender friends. For starters, Robinson isn't
cooperating with authorities. The cooperation is apparently coming from Robinson's
transgender boyfriend/partner: Lance Twiggs (he also goes by Luna). Twiggs was allegedly
raised in a Christian home but rejected the faith and his family, chose radical gender ideology
(leftism), and had an account on a sexual anime furry website. And of course, he was a Biden
supporter. He "developed a hatred of Christians and conservatives", becoming "progressively
worse the last year or two" and having issues with anger.
Teacher
allegedly showed Charlie Kirk assassination video to 10- and 11-year-olds, told students he
deserved to be killed. A public school teacher has been suspended after allegedly
showing a video of Charlie Kirk's assassination to students as young as 10 in his class,
authorities in Canada said. The teacher also suggested that Kirk deserved to be killed, and
gave the young students a speech about anti-fascism and transgender issues, according to a
report. "Several students from his class went home and complained to their parents,
traumatized at witnessing the on-camera death, which they were forced to witness numerous times
over," a source told the Toronto Sun after the shocking incident at a school in Toronto on Thursday.
No
shortage of repulsive comments from K-12 educators following Charlie Kirk murder.
There was no paucity of unprofessional and tasteless remarks from K-12 staff across the country
following the Wednesday assassination of Charlie Kirk, and much of it was chronicled by the popular
Libs of TikTok account on X. What follows is a mere smattering of what was said by those in
charge of your children's education: Melissa Easley, a member of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg
(North Carolina) School Board wrote on Facebook that while "political violence is not okay no
matter what side you are on," she added no one should "expect me to feel sorry, pitty [sic] or
mournful" for Kirk as he "has gone around saying I or my spouse are abominations." (Easley
reportedly revealed two years ago that she is bisexual and her spouse "gender-fluid.") Easley
ended her post with a currently-popular-among-leftists out-of-context quote from Kirk regarding the
Second Amendment.
Powerful
public figures spread false info about Charlie Kirk assassination, beliefs, invent
quotes. Public employees across the U.S. are facing sanctions including firing for
social media comments that celebrate or condone the assassination of Charlie Kirk, sometimes
selectively paraphrasing his comments on the Second Amendment's tradeoffs as Kirk's admission that
he could be hoisted by his own petard. High-profile public figures and institutions from New
York to Washington and Dallas to Hollywood have gone beyond cherrypicking Kirk's words since his
death, however, attributing others' words to him, fabricating or editing quotes and making
assertions about his alleged killer and political movement that are lacking or contradicted by hard
evidence. Some have walked back their claims when confronted or sought to clarify what they
meant, while others made fresh dubious remarks in correcting themselves. American Federation
of Teachers President Randi Weingarten, who was given unusual power to shape COVID-19 school
reopening plans in the early Biden administration, deleted her repost of a comment that called
suspect Tyler Robinson a "right winger who didn't want Charlie Kirk to speak" and "did what right
wingers do and shot him."
Accused
Charlie Kirk Shooter Texted Trans Lover: 'I Had Enough of His Hatred'. Tyler
Robinson, the 22-year-old suspect accused of fatally shooting Charlie Kirk during an event in Utah
last week, sent text messages to his transgender-identifying lover after the shooting explaining
that he had "had enough of" Kirk's "hatred." [Advertisement] Prosecutors released the
text messages in a court filing on Tuesday, shortly before Robinson's expected arraignment on
charges of aggravated murder and weapon and obstruction offenses. If Robinson is convicted on
the aggravated murder charge, prosecutors intend to seek the death penalty. During a press
conference announcing the charges, Utah County District Attorney Jeffrey Gray read off a series of
text messages that Robinson sent his transgender romantic partner immediately after the
shooting. In the messages, he told his partner, who the New York Post identified as Lance
Twiggs, to read a note he had left under his keyboard in which he admitted to the
assassination. "I have the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk, and I'm going to take it,"
the note read. [Advertisement] Robinson explained to Twiggs that he felt compelled to
kill Kirk to stop the conservative activist from spreading "hate."
The
heart of leftism is in academia. The most stunning online development since the
assassination of Charley Kirk has been the revelation of a vast multitude of leftist insects
crawling out of the woodwork to publicly celebrate the murder. Elon Musk says more violence
is coming. Michael Savage says we are already in a one-sided civil war. Are Musk and
Savage correct? Maybe, maybe not, but either way, it is time for a non-violent strategic move
against the left. What should be the initial target? Victor Davis Hanson says,
"America's descent into violence and moral chaos — from Kirk's assassination to
suppressed crime truths — traces back to the toxic ideologies nurtured in
universities." With that in mind, one suggestion for the initial target to fight against
leftist ideology would be that vast, simmering cesspool that brews leftist zombies: the education
complex, aka "Big-Ed."
Charlie
Kirk Assassination: How big was the conspiracy? Given the demonic leftist
cheering we have seen in response to the assassination of Charlie Kirk, it shouldn't surprise
anyone that more than one person may have been involved in this heinous crime. That's why
it's heartening to see that the FBI and other law enforcers are treating this case like a conspiracy.
The evidence seems to be all over, and it is still coming out of the woodwork. [Numerous tweets]

Manhunt
for Kirk's killer was Kash Patel's greatest test. There's some debate over whether he
passed. There was a strong sense among critics and allies alike that the manhunt for
Charlie Kirk's assassin was a major test for FBI Director Kash Patel. Mike Howell, president
of the Oversight Project, told Blaze News on Thursday that the "assassination of Charlie Kirk is
the defining moment for Patel and the FBI." While the suspected assassin, a leftist Utah
State University dropout named Tyler Robinson, has been arrested, some have nevertheless questioned
whether the FBI director made the grade. Manhattan Institute fellow Christopher Rufo, for
instance, noted, "I'm grateful that Utah authorities have captured the suspect in the Charlie Kirk
assassination, and think it is time for Republicans to assess whether Kash Patel is the right man
to run the FBI." "He performed terribly in the last few days, and it's not clear whether he
has the operational expertise to investigate, infiltrate, and disrupt the violent
movements — of whatever ideology — that threaten the peace in the United
States," added Rufo.

Activist Has Collected Over 51,000 Tips on Leftists Celebrating Charlie Kirk's
Assassination. Ryan Fournier, the National Chairman of Students for Trump, is leading
a growing online campaign to expose and hold accountable people who celebrated or mocked the
assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. His efforts, driven primarily
through his X (formerly Twitter) account with 1.2 million followers, have already resulted in
over 76 people losing their jobs. Fournier says he has received over 51,000 tips and
generated over 300 million views across his platforms. "For years, the left tried to
destroy people for simply having conservative values," Fournier said. "They ruined careers,
families, livelihoods. But now, we are fighting back." Among those fired is Apple
employee Cody Ikerd. An Old Navy worker who identified with "she/they/enby/transfem" pronouns
was also terminated after posting "Rest in piss, scum." Other cases include a fitness
instructor in Scottsdale, Arizona, and a school educator in Arkansas who also faced consequences
for their online remarks.

Secret
Service Agent Who Said Charlie Kirk Deserved to be Assassinated [will soon] Be Fired.
The Secret Service Agent who said Charlie Kirk deserved to be assassinated will be fired
soon. TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk, 31, was brutally murdered in broad daylight last Wednesday
during an event at Utah Valley University. The assassin, Tyler Robinson, climbed up onto a
roof and shot Charlie Kirk from an elevated position. Secret Service Agent Anthony Pough said
Charlie Kirk, a Christian husband and father to two young children, deserved to be murdered in cold blood.
FBI's
Dan Bongino Won't Rule Out Wider Conspiracy in Charlie Kirk Assassination: 'We're Looking Into
Everything'. FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino is refusing to rule out the possibility
that there was a wider conspiracy to assassinate Charlie Kirk that went beyond Tyler Robinson, the
man alleged to have murdered Kirk last Wednesday. Bongino's comments came during a Monday
morning interview on Fox News' America's Newsroom with Bill Hemmer that began with Hemmer asking if
"anyone" in the crowd assembled at Utah Valley University assisted Robinson. "Well, that's
what we're looking into now, Bill. Obviously we have a suspect in custody, it's quite clear,
that's why I'm here discussing this individual. However, if this was a larger effort, there
was any aiding and abetting, whether it be financial, whether it be someone who knew the specifics
of it and failed to report that. As you heard the director say this morning, we as an FBI,
our team, along with our state and local partners are looking into that," answered Bongino before
continuing: [...]
Pam
Bondi: DOJ has eyes on company that turned away customers over Kirk poster.
Attorney General Pam Bondi said Monday on Fox News' "Hannity" that the Department of Justice is
looking into Office Depot after a Michigan employee allegedly refused to print a poster for a vigil
honoring Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. Since Kirk's assassination on Wednesday,
hundreds of leftists, including educators, have been fired after publicly posting celebratory
responses to his murder. Fox News' Sean Hannity called the reactions "incomprehensible" and
asked Bondi if there was a "legal issue" from her perspective as attorney general. "Well,
sure, we all believe in the First Amendment, and these people speak horrible, horrible
things. I think yesterday or today, Sean, a school board member right here in Virginia had to
resign because she said horrible things about Charlie Kirk and that he deserved to die," Bondi
said. "That's horrific. It's free speech, but you shouldn't be employed anywhere if
you're going to say that. And employers, you have an obligation to get rid of people."

71-year-old George Zinn, admitted to causing a distraction and pretending to be the Charlie Kirk
assassin immediately following the shooting. This led police to waste their time with him as
the actual shooter got away. He's now being charged with obstruction of justice.

Chat
between accused assassin and trans lover show leftwing ideology drove him to kill Charlie
Kirk. On Tuesday, Utah County District Attorney Jeffrey Gray released private chats

Charlie
Kirk suspect texted roommate confessing to the killing: Court docs. Charlie
Kirk's alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, left a note that he had "the opportunity to take out
Charlie Kirk and I'm going to take it," according to court documents filed Tuesday.
Robinson's roommate, a 22-year-old he was in a romantic relationship with, spoke with police and
provided text messages between the two. The roommate said Sept. 10, he received a text
message from Robinson, "drop what you are doing, look under my keyboard," according to a 10-page indictment.
Nancy
Mace calls on Congress to strip Ilhan Omar of her committees over outrageous insult to Charlie
Kirk. Outrage over comments about Charlie Kirk in a video shared by Democratic
Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota may lead to her being stripped of her congressional committee
assignments. The video criticized the conservative response to Kirk's death and blamed the
rhetoric on the right for creating the circumstances that led to his assassination. Omar
reposted the video from her account on the X social media platform, according to screenshots
captured online. "Kirk was a reprehensible human being ... a stochastic terrorist," said the
commentator on the video. "With his last dying words, he was spewing racist dog
whistles. Charlie Kirk was Dr. Frankenstein, and his monster shot him through the
neck." In response, Republican Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina said she would file a
motion to punish Omar.
Explosive
alleged text messages between suspected Kirk killer and his transgender roommate obliterate liberal
narrative. A new release from law enforcement officials very much points to a
political motivation for the killing of Charlie Kirk. Utah County Attorney Jeff Gray said
that accused murderer Tyler Robinson, 22, texted his transgender roommate and told him to drop
everything to look at a note he had left under his keyboard. "I had the opportunity to take
out Charlie Kirk and I'm going to take it," the note read, according to charging documents.
ABC
News Reporter Says With Straight Face Texts Between Kirk's Alleged Assassin, Trans Boyfriend Were
'Touching'. ABC News reporter Matt Gutman said on Tuesday that the text messages
between Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin and his transgender boyfriend
were "touching." Utah County Attorney Jeffrey Gray announced the charges against the
assassin, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, and outlined several pieces of crucial evidence against the
suspect, including his text messages with his trans-identifying boyfriend, Lance Twiggs.
Following the announcement, Gutman appeared to be deeply touched by the text messages that showed
Robinson telling Twiggs that he wanted to protect him. "I don't think I've ever experienced a
press conference which we've read text messages that are a) so fulsome, so robust, so apparently,
allegedly self-incriminating and yet on the other hand so touching," Gutman said.
First
Suspect in Charlie Kirk Assassination Tells Police Why He Falsely Confessed, Gets Hit With CHILD
PORN Charges. Police have revealed that George Zinn, the 71-year-old who falsely
confessed to the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University
immediately after his shooting, has admitted he was attempting to create a distraction for the real
gunman, believed to be Tyler Robinson, 22. Zinn has also been charged with four counts of sexual
exploitation of a minor, after investigators found child pornography on his phone. According
to court documents, Zinn approached officers after the shooting and yelled, "I shot him, now shoot
me." He was taken into custody, where he continued to insist he was the shooter.
However, investigators determined his confession was fabricated, and Zinn later acknowledged he
wanted to be a "martyr." Once at the police station, Zinn requested a lawyer and admitted he
expected to face consequences for his false statements. "I am already going to be in trouble
for saying I shot him. Even if I did not," he reportedly told officers.
Man
Who Gave the Real Shooter Time to Escape Is Charged. A 71-year-old audience member
George Zinn, present when Charlie Kirk was shot dead, shouted at a police officer, "I shot him, now
shoot me", in a bid to give the real shooter more time to escape, police have said. Zinn was
taken to the police station and, once there, allegedly explained that he did what he did "to draw
attention from the real shooter." So, he "was booked into the Utah County Jail on a charge of
Obstruction of Justice, a second degree felony." New police documents obtained by news outlet
Fox13 allege that the man, named as George Zinn, drew police focus in the immediate aftermath of
Kirk's shooting, which led to him being charged with obstruction of justice. However, he is a
nut who lies continually. Maybe he lied about that too. He also had child porn on him.
5
NFL teams chose not to honor Charlie Kirk with a moment of silence (yet honored George Floyd in
2020). Frankly, I'm actually surprised any NFL team honored Charlie Kirk at
all. But I guess they were forced too [sic] after the boycott over kneeling during the anthem
began. But there were five teams that didn't take time to honor Kirk, and all five of these
teams honored Fentanyl Floyd on 2020. The teams that couldn't bother to honor Charlie Kirk
included the Detroit Lions (perineal [sic] losers), Indianapolis Colts, Cincinnati Bengals,
Baltimore Ravens and of course Tampon Tim's Minnesota Vikings. [Tweet]
Houston
Texans hold moment of silence — but don't say Charlie Kirk's name. The
Houston Texans gave a peculiar reason for why they chose not to honor Charlie Kirk before their
"Monday Night Football" game. Kirk was shot and killed on September 10 during a campus
tour stop in Utah. The assassination sparked vigils and memorials across the world, and most
NFL teams chose to honor Kirk over the weekend, with only five teams declining to do so.
Before losing 20-19 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night, the Texans announced a message
over the public address system at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas. At about 6:40 p.m.,
according to OutKick's Armando Salguero, the stadium paused for 10 seconds to honor victims of
violence and destruction generically. "Ladies and gentlemen, we are asking all families to
join us in a moment of silence to honor all the victims of violence and natural disasters across
the country," the statement said, which was broadcast on ESPN. "It's our hope that together,
we condemn all forms of violence. Thank you."
Man
Who Claimed to Have Shot Charlie Kirk Hit with Multiple Child Sexual Exploitation
Charges. The man who was taken into custody at Utah Valley University last week after
falsely claiming that he had shot Charlie Kirk has now been charged with possessing graphic sexual
photos of children as well as felony obstruction of justice. The Utah Valley Sheriff's Office
said in a Tuesday news release that shortly after Kirk's assassination, George Zinn, 71, approached
officers, saying he was the shooter. UVU police took him into custody and took him to the
police office on campus. While there, he complained of chest pains and was transported to a
local hospital, where he confessed he had not shot Kirk, but was trying to create a distraction to
give the real assassin time to flee.
The
Left Is Evil. The conflict goes deeper than politics. They didn't kill Charlie
Kirk for his views on tax policy. They killed him because he was good. These people
advocate killing viable 9-month babies in the name of patently moronic bumper sticker
slogans. They endorse surgically mutilating children's genitals so as to consign them to
lives of sexual perversion. Among Democrats, these are not fringe positions. Why should
anyone be surprised that they celebrate the murder of a decent man for opposing them? Charlie
Kirk stood out as a champion for good. Where Democrats have deployed their army of mentally
ill freaks, the nail that stands out gets hammered down. They kill on behalf of evil.
Charlie
Kirk Assassin Charged, Confirmed to Have Been Left-Wing, Focused on 'Trans Rights.'
Utah County Attorney Jeff Gray has formally charged Tyler Robinson with the murder of Charlie
Kirk. The charges include aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm, obstruction of
justice, witness tampering, and committing a violent offense in the presence of a child. Gray
also confirmed that Robinson was in a relationship with a male-to-female transgender named Lance
Twiggs, and had been becoming increasingly left-leaning and focused on gay and trans rights,
according to his relatives. In messages between Robinson and his roommate lover, he explained
he murdered Kirk, a 31-year-old father of two, because he had "had enough of his hatred,"
adding: "Some hate can't be negotiated out." "Charlie Kirk was murdered while engaging
in one of our most sacred and cherished American rights, the bedrock of our democratic republic,
the free exchange of ideas and the search for truth, understanding, and a more perfect union," Gray said.
George
Zinn, elderly rabble-rouser who falsely claimed he shot Charlie Kirk, is hit with child porn
charges. The elderly rabble-rouser who allegedly hindered Utah authorities' response
after Charlie Kirk was fatally shot is now accused of keeping "graphic" sexual photos of children
on his phone, according to law enforcement. George Zinn, 71, was charged with four counts of
sexual exploitation of a minor Monday after investigators found more than 20 images of kids as
young as 5 years old, at least partially naked and "posing" in a "sexual" way, the Utah County
Sheriff's Office said in a news release Tuesday. "Zinn admitted ... that he gets sexual
gratification from viewing and sharing [child sexual abuse material] images with others, and that
his preferred victim age is 5 to 12 years old," the agency alleged.
DA
Reveals Mother's Remarks About Tyler Robinson's Politics, Texts With Boyfriend.
As we reported, charges were filed against Tyler Robinson, the man accused in the assassination of
Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk. Utah County District Attorney Jeff Gray announced
that Robinson faced seven counts, including aggravated murder, obstruction of justice, and witness
tampering. He also noted his intent to seek the death penalty in this case. He laid out
aggravating factors, saying that it was done because of Kirk's "political expression" and knowing
that children would be present. [Advertisement] Gray explained that yes, the mother had
said that Robinson had become more left over the past year, "becoming more gay and trans
rights-oriented," and had started dating his roommate, who was a biological male who was
"transitioning." [Tweet]
Should
the Ghouls Publicly Celebrating Charlie Kirk's Assassination Lose Their Jobs? In the
aftermath of the assassination of Charlie Kirk by a violently deranged and hate-filled leftist
(yes, that is a confirmed fact), some on the hard Left have been publicly expressing justifications
for, and even celebrations of, the murder. These ghouls do not represent America, nor do they
represent America's center-left coalition writ large. Many politicians, public figures and
private citizens on the 'progressive' end of the spectrum have prominently and unequivocally
denounced the killing. This must be acknowledged and embraced with gratitude by all people of
good will. The forces of decency must stand together against the cancer of political violence
and twisted vigilantism. What must also be said is that there is a toxic and
not-insignificant strain of leftism that indulges, excuses, and cheers on this evil. We saw
it after the cold-blooded murder of healthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York City. We've
seen it repeatedly from the pro-Hamas hate mob for nearly two straight years. And we're
seeing it again in the wake of Kirk's violent demise. Applauding murder is vile and should
have no place in a civilized, free society. This should not be controversial.
Political
Violence Poll Just Nuked This CNN Host's Talking Point on Trump's Remarks About Charlie
Kirk. Some top Trump officials have made some not-so-helpful remarks about free
speech and hate speech, namely from Attorney General Pam Bondi. I don't think the government
should be the point of the lance in targeting people who say insane things. We, as citizens,
do a fine job exposing those creeps — there have been hordes of professionals fired or
placed on leave for gross posts celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk. We'll revisit
that later, but, of course, CNN was aghast at this, with host Abby Phillip trying to spin this as a
move to punish the Left and President Trump's political rivals. That's such a juvenile,
knee-jerk take. [Advertisement] Again, there are some troubling aspects to this, but we
can no longer say that it's 'just people talking' anymore. Trump was shot in Butler,
Pennsylvania. Charlie Kirk was assassinated at Utah Valley University in Orem on
September 10. The Left is violent. They are killing, and there's polling that exposes
this cancer. [Video clip]
GOP
erupts on Dem running for attorney general in red state over profanity-laced Charlie Kirk
post. A Democrat running to be the top law enforcement official in the state of Ohio
is facing backlash for a series of social media posts disparaging Charlie Kirk in the days after
the conservative activist was assassinated. [...] Forhan's social media posts have prompted
significant pushback, both on the internet and from Republicans in the state, with many calling on
him to withdraw from the race. "No public servant should say that about any human being, much
less somebody who was just assassinated," Ohio's current attorney general, Republican Dave Yost,
told Fox News Digital. "He just proved himself to be a petulant and undisciplined child,
ill-suited to public office."
Pentagon
calls Charlie Kirk posts 'domestic terrorism'; Dem warns discipline is 'un-American'.
The Pentagon is not backing down from its quest for consequences for those who celebrate Charlie
Kirk's killing, even as Democrats warn the move is "un-American" and violates free speech
protections. The controversy underscores a clash between military discipline and First
Amendment rights, with top Pentagon officials arguing that celebrating the killing of an American
political figure is unacceptable conduct for service members — while Democrats counter
that the crackdown risks punishing constitutionally protected speech. "Hunting down and
prosecuting service members for their individual political beliefs is dangerous and un-American,"
Rep. Jason Crow, D-Colo., a former Army Ranger, wrote on X.
Spanberger
Refuses To Renounce Endorsement From School Board Chair Who Celebrated Charlie Kirk's
Assassination. Virginia Democrat gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger won't say
whether she'll renounce an endorsement from a local school board member who celebrated Charlie
Kirk's assassination. On Sunday, Chesterfield County School Board Chair Dot Heffron announced
plans to resign after issuing a despicable social media post touting Kirk's murder. On
Instagram, the commonwealth official wrote, "Call me old fashioned, but I remember when we used to
be okay with shooting Nazis." [Advertisement] Heffron released a statement when
disclosing her intent to step down, in which she said, "The words I shared were wrong," and "I
should have shown better judgment." According to an NPR-PBS affiliate, "Less than an hour
after Heffron released her statement, the [Chesterfield school] board — whose four other
members released a joint statement after the initial post, calling for Heffron to step
down — announced it was accepting her resignation and would appoint an interim board
member." "Heffron offered her resignation effective Dec. 31, but the board said it would
appoint an interim board member until a special election can be held to finish out her term, which
runs through 2027," the report reads. Heffron previously endorsed Spanberger for governor in
December 2023.

Kirk, following his assassination. Beni Rae Harmony announced she was leaving WICS-ABC20

emotional 1-minute and 17-second tribute on Friday. "Many in the mainstream media have been
fired or punished for mocking his assassination," Harmony wrote on X. [Tweet with

Texas
Isn't Just Firing Pro-Assassination Teachers, It's Making Sure They Won't Work Again — Over 100 Hit
So Far. Republican Texas Governor Greg Abbott confirmed on social media Monday that
more than 100 teachers in his state are being removed from the classroom. These educators
will lose their jobs, their teaching certificates, and the ability to ever lead students astray in
Texas again. Their offense? Glorifying or celebrating the horrific assassination of
Charlie Kirk last week. [Advertisement] Abbott responded to a post on X that claimed
Texas Education Agency Commissioner Mike Morath was investigating teachers. Morath made clear
where the state stands. [Advertisement] "While all educators are held to a high
standard of professionalism, there is a difference between comments made in poor taste and those
that call for and incite further violence — the latter of which is clearly
unacceptable," Morath said. He added: "TEA's Educator Investigations Division has
already begun its review, and I will be recommending to the State Board for Educator Certification
that such individuals have their certification suspended and be rendered ineligible to teach in a
Texas public school." [Advertisement] [Tweet]
Free
Speech Does Not Protect Teachers Glorifying Political Violence. The assassination of
Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University has ignited a moral and legal crisis that schools cannot
ignore. The question before us is not whether teachers enjoy freedom of speech. They
do. The question is whether that freedom extends to celebrating political violence,
particularly violence that took place in a school setting. The answer, grounded in law,
ethics, and common sense, is no. Schools not only may, but must, act decisively to discipline
or fire educators who glorify Kirk's killing. [Video clip] The law here is
clear. In Garcetti v. Ceballos (2006), the Supreme Court held that speech by public
employees made pursuant to their official duties is not protected by the First Amendment.
Teachers, as government employees, are subject to this standard. What about speech made
outside of official duties? Courts apply the Pickering test, first articulated in Pickering
v. Board of Education (1968), which requires balancing a teacher's right to comment on
matters of public concern against the school's interest in maintaining order, trust, and
effectiveness. In cases where a teacher's public remarks cause serious disruption or
undermine their fitness to teach, schools win. That is precisely the situation with teachers
who praise or justify Kirk's assassination.

Union Chief Randi Weingarten Holding Virtual Book Event on 'Teachers Against Fascists'.
Randi Weingarten, the head of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), has proven time and time
again that she has no talent for reading the room. Today, just five days after the
assassination of Charlie Kirk, Weingarten is holding a virtual event to promote her book about
teachers fighting fascism. It's beyond poor taste to do this, considering this is just the
sort of rhetoric that led to Kirk's murder.
FBI
Investigating Pro-Trans Organizations and Online Accounts For Ties to Charlie Kirk's
Assassination. The FBI has reportedly widened its investigation into the
assassination of Charlie Kirk to include radical leftist groups in Utah to determine whether they
helped the suspect or had foreknowledge of his plan. Several transgender social media
accounts made self-incriminating comments before and after suspect Tyler Robinson murdered Kirk at
a TPUSA event at Utah Valley University in Orem on September 10. The ammunition inside the
rifle used to shoot Kirk was engraved with cryptic messages of transgender and antifascist
ideology. Robinson was arrested on Friday in connection with the murder after his father
persuaded him to turn himself in. The 22-year-old is reportedly not cooperating with
investigators. "He has not confessed to authorities. He is not cooperating, but all the
people around him are cooperating. And I think that's very important," Utah Governor Spencer
Cox said on ABC's "This Week," Sunday. According to the New York Post, the probe includes
groups within the online gaming community Steam, as well as an organization called Armed Queers
SLC, which took down their Instagram right after Kirk was killed.
Lance
Twiggs Identified as Key Figure in Charlie Kirk Case. Lance Twiggs has become one of
the most talked-about names in Utah after being revealed as a key figure in the investigation into
the killing of Charlie Kirk. Within days of the tragic shooting at Utah Valley University,
investigators confirmed that Twiggs played an important role by cooperating with authorities and
handing over crucial digital evidence. His involvement has shifted public focus from the
accused shooter, Tyler Robinson, to the people in Robinson's inner circle and how they may have
contributed to the unfolding of events.
First
man arrested in Kirk assassination tried to help shooter escape, authorities say. The
man who was arrested at the scene shortly following the assassination of conservative activist
Charlie Kirk tried to help the suspected shooter escape by faking a confession, authorities
announced Tuesday. Shortly after Kirk was shot and killed at Utah Valley University, George
Zinn, 71, yelled that he shot the conservative activist, according to the Utah County Sheriff's
Office. [Advertisement] Zinn was then taken into custody by Utah Valley University
Police, but was not cooperative with authorities and did not want to talk to investigators.
He was eventually released. "Zinn began to have a medical issue and was transported to a
local hospital," Utah County Sheriff's Office said in a news release Tuesday. "While at the
Hospital Zinn did freely state that he was not the shooter but yelled he was to hinder Law
Enforcement's response."
Before
A Left-Wing Assassin Murdered Charlie Kirk, Chris Wray's FBI Tried To Destroy Turning Point
USA. Charlie Kirk's Turning Point USA was on a short list of Republican groups
targeted by President Joe Biden's FBI under the direction of then-Director Christopher Wray.
Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, dropped that bombshell Tuesday during a Senate Judiciary
Committee regular hearing on the oversight of the FBI, along with a revolting new document.
[Advertisement] "It's well-understood that your predecessor left you an FBI infected with
politics," Grassley said in his opening statement, speaking to current FBI Director Kash
Patel. As proof, Grassley shared recently released records listing 92 targets the FBI was
investigating or intending to investigate in the large-scale, multi-year political weaponization
operation named Arctic Frost, a joint investigation using resources from the FBI, Department of
Justice, and Office of Inspector General. This bogus witch hunt involved more than 150
interviews, over 400 subpoenas (largely for bank records), hundreds of witnesses, and search
warrants for cell phones of high level government officials, electronic devices, iCloud access, and
email accounts. "Arctic Frost was the FBI case opened and approved by anti-Trump FBI agent
[Timothy] Thibault. Arctic Frost became Jack Smith's elector case against Trump," Grassley said.
Charlie
Kirk Shooter Confessed to Murder in Discord Chat Group. There is a great deal of
psychological darkness in the background of the Charlie Kirk murder. I strongly urge readers
to stay grounded to faith as you engage in review of any aspect of this story. The war
between good and evil is taking place in the battle for minds. Originally reported by the
Washington Post, apparently Charlie Kirk's assassin, Tyler Robinson, confessed in a chat room just
a few hours before he turned himself in.
Nashville
Public Defender Esperanza Yanez Calls Charlie Kirk 'Fascist Organizer' Unworthy of Empathy.
Esperanza Yanez, an attorney employed by the Nashville Public Defender's Office, published at least four
posts to social media claiming her lack of "empathy" for the assassination of Charlie Kirk was justified
by claiming the Turning Point USA founder was a "fascist organizer." Yanez first publicly commented
on Kirk's assassination on Wednesday afternoon, only hours after he was killed, when she claimed that
Kirk, "said he loved the genocide occurring in Palestine and wanted to see more of it," before adding an
emoji depicting a woman shrugging. Hours later, Yanez wrote in another post, "demanding empathy for a
hateful person like this is insane," and derided others for praying for the victims of other tragedies, including,
"black and brown people killed by police brutality, and CIVILIANS taken out by isnotreal's military force."

FBI
probing possible 'extended network' that 'aided and abetted' suspected Charlie Kirk shooter Tyler
Robinson. The FBI's No. 2 man said Monday he suspects Charlie Kirk's alleged killer,
Tyler Robinson, could have been "aided and abetted" by an "extended network" — alluding
to "multiple warning signs" he gave leading up to the assassination. As The [New York] Post
reported Sunday, law enforcement was already probing whether pro-trans online groups, sexualized
animal-obsessed "furries" and others connected with Robinson had advance knowledge of his alleged
murderous plans. The groups include communities on the online gaming platform Steam, as well
as Armed Queers SLC, which took down its Instagram page after Kirk was murdered. But now, FBI
Deputy Director Dan Bongino suggested that the feds are casting an even wider net —
scrutinizing whether anyone in the crowd, including possibly the TikTokker who was asking Kirk a
question at the moment of his murder, knew anything about the plot.
The
New Poll That Proves Liberals Are Growing Dangerously Comfortable With Political Violence.
While the vast majority of Americans continue to reject political violence without quantification,
a staggeringly large percentage of those identifying as liberals feel it can be justified and even
celebrated. [Advertisement] A new poll conducted in the aftermath of the assassination of
Charlie Kirk shows the American left is growing dangerously comfortable with the idea of political
violence as a tool to achieve its goals. While left-leaning media demand the right tone down
their rhetoric, a survey conducted by YouGov shows it's the resistance party that needs to engage
in some serious introspection. YouGov's polling addressed the simple matter of emotions when
it comes to witnessing political violence, something that has become a significant issue as the
left openly celebrates Kirk's death on gutter-feeding social media sites such as BlueSky. A
solid 34 percent of respondents identifying as either very or somewhat liberal said it is
"always or usually acceptable" to be happy about the death of a political figure they disagree
with. Comparatively, just 7 percent of conservatives and 7 percent of moderates
believe it's okay to be happy about such a death.
Iryna
Zarutska, Charlie Kirk, and the Democrat Party. Three recent events have underscored
the catastrophic erosion of the foundational tenets of the United States and the anti-Americanism
of the Democrat Party. The first is the brutal murder of a young woman in Charlotte, N.C.,
Iryna Zarutska. The second, the assassination of Charlie Kirk. The third, sitting
Democrat senator Tim Kaine's declaration reflecting a fundamental belief within the current
Democrat Party that the government is the source and, thus, the final arbiter of all human
rights. Over the centuries, those that deem the state is paramount and, thus, the source of
all rights, believe granting, limiting, or denying these rights is the sole discretion of the state
based on what the state defines as the greater good. When the state refuses to recognize the
unalienable or God-given rights of its citizens its society is beset with turmoil and its culture
is fraught with no respect for the life, liberty, and property of its individual citizens.
'There
is no politics without an enemy'. Everyone is outraged by the assassination of
Charlie Kirk. And they are shocked by the number of teachers and government administrators
that are celebrating his death. But I am not surprised. Why? There is no
politics without an enemy. That little maxim was published on June 2, 2021, by Curtis
Yarvin, originally on American Mind. Now it's on his Substack Gray Mirror. It's a
distillation of the thought of Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt on politics.
Report:
Older Man Initially Arrested After Kirk Shooting Confessed to Distracting Police From Real
Shooter. Reports from various outlets indicate the 71-year-old man initially arrested
after Charlie Kirk was shot has now allegedly confessed to trying to distract police from the real
shooter. [Advertisement] Breitbart News noted that the actual alleged assassin, 22-year-old
Tyler Robinson, was arrested by police on Thursday night and revealed to the public on Friday
morning. Video of 71-year-old George Zinn being led away from the shooting scene in handcuffs
"about an hour after the shooting" led many to believe he was the shooter, and that therefore, the
shooter had been apprehended. However, Zinn was charged with obstruction of justice, not with
the assassination, FOX 13 Salt Lake City noted. The outlet pointed to police documents
indicating Zinn was arrested after allegedly screaming, "I shot him. Now shoot me!"
When no officers shot, Zinn alleged yelled again, "I shot him. Now shoot me!"
After
Kirk assassination, political left social media posts list 'next' targets. In the
wake of the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, thousands of social media
posts appear to list politically conservative targets for assassination by the political
left. Those on the list include podcaster Joe Rogan, Harry Potter author JK Rowling,
conservative political commentators Ben Shapiro and Matt Walsh, among others. In response to
being targeted, Rowling, said, "If you believe free speech is for you but not your political
opponents, you're illiberal. If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a
fundamentalist. If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a
totalitarian. If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death,
you're a terrorist."
Okay,
Now Leftists Are Posting Hit Lists of the People They Want to Murder Next. The left
is evil. The left is a gang of terrorists. If you have any lingering doubt about that,
consider this: first they were celebrating the murder of Charlie Kirk, but now leftists are
making those celebrations look practically innocent. Hit lists have begun to appear on social
media, as bloodthirsty leftists indulge their fantasies about which of their designated enemies
they would like to see murdered next. And yes, there is no doubt whatsoever that the people
who are openly displaying their bloodlust in this way think all the while that they occupy the
moral high ground. [Advertisement] The Center Square reported Friday that "in the wake of the
assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, thousands of social media posts appear to
list politically conservative targets for assassination by the political left."

The
New York Times Perpetuates a Lie. Probably the worst crime a journalist can commit is

exactly what former Washington Post "journalist" Karen Attiah did, on the BlueSky hate platform:
[Screenshot] The quote Attiah attributed to Charlie Kirk? He never said it. She just

State
Department Revokes Visa for Rapper Who Mocked Assassination of Charlie Kirk. The
Trump-Rubio U.S. State Department revoked the visa of a punk rapper who viciously and gleefully
mocked the assassination of Charlie Kirk at a show. A clip of Bobby Vylan, aka Pascal
Robinson-Foster, the frontman for the English punk rap duo also called Bob Vylan, sparked outrage
when he ghoulishly joked and danced on stage after Kirk's assassination. [Advertisement]
Walking back in forth in front of a Palestinian flag at an Amsterdam venue, Vylan ranted,
[Profanity-infused outburst omitted] after which he started dancing in joy to wild audience
cheers. Vylan also reportedly asked if there were "any snipers in the room." [Tweet]
Fortunately, Vylan didn't get away without consequences for his loathsome and abhorrent
behavior. The U.S. State Department revoked his visa and let the rapper know that if he and
his fellow rapper want to celebrate political assassination, they will have to do it overseas and
not in the United States.

but we do believe in civility." Pilots, medical professionals, teachers and one Secret
Service employee are among those who have been suspended or sacked for social media posts that were
deemed inappropriate about Kirk's death. Critics have argued the firings threaten free speech
and employee protections, although US companies have wide latitude to terminate employees.

Anchor Suspended Over Non-Partisan Tribute to Charlie Kirk. Beni Harmony was the
Lifestyle Anchor/Reporter for WICS ABC20 in Springfield, Illinois. However, according to
Harmony's X and Facebook page, she was suspended for a Friday, on-air tribute to assassinated TPUSA
co-founder and CEO Charlie Kirk. [Advertisement] Instead of accepting the suspension,
Harmony chose to resign. From the tribute, Harmony appeared to have a personal connection to
Kirk and said that Kirk was "the first person who made me believe in myself." In the X post,
she included that on-air tribute. Her message, while teary, heartfelt, and encouraging, did
not come off as partisan or divisive. The same cannot be said of high-profile and national
legacy media outlets, which have spewed nonsense and some outright vitriol since Kirk's murder on
Wednesday. Over the last week and weekend, we have had a plethora of stories showing doctors,
nurses, and teachers being exposed, and subsequently fired, for openly celebrating Kirk's
assassination. But now we have what appears to be the first instance of a person being
suspended because they spoke well of Kirk and offered a glowing tribute.
Sick:
First Man Arrested in Charlie Kirk's Murder Was Trying to Distract Cops. In all the
fire-hose flood of information and revelations in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination, it's
easy to forget that first suspect, the older man near the stage that we saw arrested in real
time. He was quickly cleared of any direct involvement and released. As it turns out,
though, he may be in some legal trouble after all; on Tuesday, reports surfaced that he may have
drawn the police's attention to himself deliberately. Why? To help buy time for
Charlie's murderer to escape. [Advertisement] If this is true, then all I can say is, what

Vast
Terror Network Exposed in Wake of Kirk's Assassination. The assassination of Charlie
Kirk on September 15, 2025, is now officially treated as a sweeping conspiracy involving
Antifa, radical transgender networks, military infiltrators, and international financiers,
according to President Trump's remarks and the evolving law enforcement focus. Key coverage
includes a New York Post report on the widened probe, a Gateway Pundit article on Utah's
Mormon-linked issues, and updates on DNA evidence confirming the suspect, alongside rising calls to
designate Antifa a terrorist group and daily federal briefings aimed at resolving narrative
inconsistencies. [...] Additional investigative updates add weight: Kash Patel confirms DNA
matches from a towel-wrapped firearm and a screwdriver to the suspect, with the probe widening to
20+ individuals in Discord chats celebrating the assassination. Bannon says unresolved issues
remain: video of the suspect dropping a rifle from a rooftop, stiff-legged doorbell footage hinting
at concealed weapons, and unsearched vehicles. He calls for Antifa's terrorist designation,
FBI raids, and arrests of associates such as the shooter's "furry" roommate, likening the situation
to the Boston Marathon bombing.
Feminists
paid 'witches' to curse Charlie Kirk two days before assassination. A Left-leaning
feminist website paid "witches" to curse Charlie Kirk for an article published days before he was
assassinated. Editors of the Jezebel site were forced into an awkward clarification after Mr
Kirk, a Right-wing political activist, was shot dead at an event on a Utah university campus.
Within hours, the killing had been heavily politicised. Donald Trump, the US president,
blamed the "radical Left" for the shooting in an address from the White House, while Nancy Mace, a
Republican congresswoman, said Democrats needed to "own" the killing.
Liberals
Lie That Tyler Robinson Isn't One of Their Own. Moonbats have no meaningful
conception of right and wrong or even true and untrue. To them, there is only politically
correct and politically incorrect. That which makes them more powerful by advancing their
preferred narratives is correct. They gaslight each other into believing even the most
preposterous lies — including that the leftist kook Tyler Robinson is a conservative.
[...] Like the rest of the LGBT community, transsexuals are overwhelmingly left-wing.
Incidentally, they are also well known for violence. [...] If you share this information with a
true believer Democrat, you are likely to get their standard response to any facts that do not
conform to their talking points: "Where'd you hear that?"

secondary, and post-secondary educational institution refusing to hold teachers or administrators
accountable for celebrating the murder of Charlie Kirk. We stand ready to work with Secretary
McMahon to ensure taxpayer dollars never fund hate, extremism, or violence inside our

Sen.
Lankford Deemed a Sellout for Downplaying Left-Wing Violence. Sen. James
Lankford, R-Okla., was slammed by commentators on Sunday after he seemed to downplay left-wing
violence, even after conservative activist Charlie Kirk was killed in broad daylight while
addressing a crowd of young supporters. Speaking on CNN's State of the Union, Lankford
offered a "both sides" take on the issue and even took time to highlight white extremism. He
made these comments in response to White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller's pledge to
hold those promoting violence against conservatives accountable.
Is
America Heading Toward a New Civil War? The assassination of Charlie Kirk shows yet
again that the chasm between patriotic Americans and the left is certainly growing all the time and
shows no signs of healing. One telling indication that the nation might be heading toward a
new civil conflict is the fact that political tensions have not been this high since the run-up to
secession and the attack on Fort Sumter, and that numerous leftists are increasingly open about
their lust for violence, cheering.on Kirk's death with unalloyed joy. The murder of Charlie
Kirk didn't happen in a vacuum. Leftist leaders have been calling for violence, and now their
calls have been heeded. "Never before in my life have I called for mass protests, for
mobilization, for disruption — but I am now," said far-left Illinois Gov. JB
Pritzker back in April. "These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace." That was
after Rep. Kweisi Mfume (D-Victimhood) said in February: "This will be a congressional
fight, a constitutional fight, a legal fight, and on days like this a street fight, yes we will
stand." And that was not long after House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-Hey, I'm a Victim
Too) said this of the "extreme MAGA Republican agenda": "We are going to fight it legislatively.
We are going to fight it in the courts. We're going to fight it in the streets."
Unraveling
the web of deception: Charlie Kirk's assassin and the FBI's false flag. The
assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk has sent shockwaves through America, raising
urgent questions about who was truly behind the attack. While authorities swiftly arrested an
alleged shooter — identified as Tyler — the official narrative is riddled
with inconsistencies, contradictions, and outright absurdities that suggest a deeper conspiracy at
play. The government's version of events strains credulity:
• No Visual Evidence: Despite ubiquitous surveillance cameras, there is no footage of Tyler
carrying a rifle, assembling it on a rooftop, or fleeing the scene.
• Impossible Logistics: Officials claim Tyler disassembled and reassembled a precision rifle
multiple times — a process requiring specialized tools — while simultaneously
changing clothes mid-operation.
• No Recovered Bullet: Despite claims of a sniper shot, no bullet has been recovered,
making forensic verification impossible. Ballistics matching, often touted as definitive proof, is itself a
Hollywood myth — bullets cannot be conclusively linked to a specific firearm.
• Destroyed Crime Scene: Kirk's security team hastily dismantled the scene, removing
cameras and banners that could have provided critical evidence.
There
IS Evidence of a Conspiracy to Kill Charlie Kirk. Generally speaking, when people
jump to the conclusion that there was a conspiracy to commit some heinous act, it is a mistake to
jump down that rabbit hole without first seeing a lot of evidence that it hides something
dangerous. [Advertisement] So when people started whispering about a conspiracy to kill
Kirk, I thought that it was likely just paranoid musings that led in that direction. After
all, lone crazy people do things often enough. [Two tweets] But in this case it is beginning
to look like this was a Trantifa conspiracy, and the FBI is seriously investigating links between
trans activists who explicitly said online things that indicated they knew that Kirk would be shot,
and at least one of those people celebrated that "We did it!" after Kirk's assassination.
The Editor says...
I'm no lawyer, but perhaps you should not openly brag, "We did it," immediately after an especially
infamous violent crime has been committed.
Charlie
Kirk's alleged assassin's transgender roommate 'hates conservatives and Christians,' relative
says. The trans roommate of Turning Point USA Founder Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin
"hates conservatives and Christians," one of his relatives told Fox News Digital in an
interview. The 22-year-old, who has not been charged and whose name has not yet been released

the relative. She said he is in the process of transitioning from male to female. The
woman, who asked to remain anonymous, told Fox News Digital her relative began to act differently
when he turned 18 and said that he developed a hatred of Christians and conservatives.
FBI
Investigating Social Media Accounts That Appeared To Indicate Foreknowledge of Kirk
Assassination. The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating social media
posts by at least seven different accounts that appeared to indicate foreknowledge of the
assassination of Charlie Kirk, according to three people familiar with the investigation and
screenshots obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. The posts — one of which
referenced the date of Kirk's assassination, September 10, more than a month before it took
place — were all deleted in the days following the killing. Several of the
accounts appear to belong to transgender individuals, and at least one of them followed suspect
Tyler Robinson's roommate, with whom Robinson was allegedly in a relationship, on TikTok.

It's
Too Late to Cry "Cancel Culture". It's funny that they all suddenly care about
censorship, free speech, and cancel culture, isn't it? And the chilling effects that had on
open expression? Have they looked at Hollywood lately? Ever hear of a culture of
silence and a climate of fear that has all but gutted a once-thriving industry? Do they
remember why Elon Musk had to buy Twitter? How many people did we watch unpersoned,
disappeared, and banished from utopia? How many lives have been ruined just for daring to
speak the truth about the differences between biological men and women? Remember All Lives
Matter? Remember Blue Lives Matter? Remember the MAGA hat and all of the ways people
were assaulted, screamed at, spit on, and shunned just for wearing them?
[Video clip] Do the hundreds of names in the database for Cancel Culture register at
all? Remember the Harper's Letter and how so many were canceled just for signing it?
Now, we're all supposed to feel bad because those who chose to dance on Charlie Kirk's grave are
now losing their jobs?
Tyler
Robinson's DNA [has been] Found at Kirk Assassination Site; Suspect Previously Vowed to 'Take Out'
Kirk. Law enforcement has turned up striking new evidence in their investigation into
Charlie Kirk's assassination, including a confirmed DNA match linking the alleged assassin, Tyler
Robinson, to the crime scene, FBI Director Kash Patel revealed Monday. [Advertisement]
Robinson's DNA was present on a screwdriver found on a rooftop at the Utah Valley University campus
as well as on a towel that was wrapped around the rifle that investigators found in the woods near
the assassination site, Patel said during an interview on Fox & Friends. "I can report today
that the DNA hits from the towel that was wrapped around the firearm and the DNA from the
screwdriver are positively processed for the suspect in custody," Patel said. The bolt-action
hunting rifle used in the attack is still in Maryland with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms, and Explosives being analyzed, Patel said. [Advertisement] Robinson also wrote
a note before the assassination, saying if he was given the chance to "take out Charlie Kirk," he
was "going to take it," Patel revealed.
Charlie
Kirk assassination suspect had 'furry' fixation, and his trans boyfriend proclaimed support for
Biden on social media. Alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson appeared to have
a fixation on furries — while his live-in transgender boyfriend espoused support for Joe
Biden and joked about being mentally ill, according to social media posts linked to the pair.
Lance Twiggs, 22, an aspiring pro gamer and Robinson's roommate, appears to have made a comment in
a 2022 Reddit post stating, "We are riding with Biden on this glorious subreddit." Twiggs,
whose family appears to be conservative Christians based in Utah, is transitioning from male to
female and was in a relationship with the 22-year-old Robinson, Gov. Spencer Cox confirmed Sunday.
Charlie
Kirk assassination investigation widens to probe whether pro-trans, online groups knew in
advance. The feds have widened their investigation into the assassination of Charlie
Kirk to probe whether pro-trans, online groups and others connected with Tyler Robinson knew in
advance about the plan to kill the MAGA influencer, The [New York] Post has learned. Law
enforcement sources said that investigators are examining leftist groups both in Utah and online to
figure out if they helped him with the shooting — or at least heard it was going to
happen. The probe includes groups in online gaming community Steam, as well as a pro-trans
organization called Armed Queers SLC, which took down their Instagram after Kirk was killed, the
source confirmed.
Armed
Queers group trains radical Marxists to shoot just miles from where Charlie Kirk was
murdered. Amid the snow-capped mountains and Mormon churches of Utah, not far from
where FBI agents continue to scour for more evidence in Charlie Kirk's assassination, a
self-described armed revolutionary group openly aligned with Cuba has risen up on the streets of
one of America's most conservative states. Armed Queers SLC says its mission is to train gay,
queer and transgender people to arm themselves and to fight against capitalism. Although
their purported Facebook page does not directly appear to encourage the use of firearms in their
claimed mission, many of the images used depict firearms. As recently as this spring, its
members traveled to Cuba for a meeting to celebrate the May Day holiday and participate in a march
and events alongside revolutionaries from around the world. The group posted photos on its
public Instagram account — which was deleted on Friday — of its young
students attending, and its leaders openly discussed how the communist regime agenda and this
American group's agenda were aligned in a YouTube video after the visit to Havana. The video
has been scrubbed and is not available in any web archive, but Just the News took a careful
transcription of the discussion prior to its deletion.
The
left must finally quit encouraging political violence. From all early signs, Tyler
Robinson's "reasons" for taking Charlie Kirk's life came straight from the lefty disinformation
machine that has been screaming about right-wing fascism for at least half the confessed assassin's
life. At least two "anti-fascist" messages on the cartridges; a relative noting how in
conversation he insisted Kirk "was full of hate and spreading hate" — all horribly in
tune with the many lefty talking points uttered after the assassination suggesting Kirk was
asking for it. Yes, the extreme right has its own sicko extremists, but Robinson didn't have
to dunk himself into the sewers of the Internet to imbibe the incessant refrain that President
Donald Trump and anyone who supports him is a clear and present danger to American democracy.
Leading political and cultural figures spread that message of hate all over TV and the rest of our
major media. It has become a commonplace across the left — including the
center-left — to compare Trump, Trump voters and Republicans generally to Hitler, Nazis
and fascists.
Charlie
Kirk's assassination is the result of a decade of anti-Trump rhetoric from the left.
A predictable reaction to the horrible murder of Charlie Kirk among legacy media outlets has been
to condemn the ugly tenor of America's political debate and call for a timeout. On its face,
the plea sounds reasonable enough, but it rests on the false idea of both-sidesism, as if left and
right are equally to blame for the frightening rise of political violence. Count that as
another Big Media lie and a repugnant effort to obscure the actual source and motivation of the
assassination scourge. There are not two sides contributing to the horror and equally
responsible for it. The single truth is that we are witnessing the inevitable result of a
decade of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Kirk's death is another piece of poisoned fruit growing
out of the far left's hysteria and its fetish-like obsession about killing the president.
Was
the Current Madness Birthed in the University? America is currently sick. The
young conservative organizer and media personality Charlie Kirk was just murdered in a political
assassination by a 22-year-old 'anti-fascist' and trans advocate, Tyler Robinson. As planned,
he eliminated the most astute and successful political activist in a generation. [...] No sooner
was he killed than thousands on left-wing social media erupted in celebration — among
them scores of teachers and professors. Their venom was eerily reminiscent of their earlier
canonization of left-wing murderer Luigi Mangione. Recall, Mangione was the spoiled nepo baby
who lethally ambushed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Thereby, he became an icon to the
Left as a social justice warrior fighting the evil capitalist system, which had so enriched himself
and his own family.
The
killing of Charlie Kirk shows just how poisonous Left-wing politics now is. It is
impossible to imagine a more gruesomely visceral demonstration of the silencing of free speech than
the shooting in the neck of its defender-in-chief, Charlie Kirk. The placement of the bullet,
fired from 130m away, while Kirk was mid-sentence was profoundly symbolic. One can easily
imagine the killer aiming to hit him in the voice box where it was really going to
hurt. Had the 31-year-old father of two miraculously survived, he would have been a muted
version of his former self; in all likelihood, unable to communicate as before. That was
surely the objective — to shut him up, in one way or another. [Advertisement] We now know
that the ammunition found with the high powered, bolt action .30 calibre hunting rifle was engraved
with what police say is "anti-fascist ideology". Whoever did this truly believed that killing
someone they disagreed with could be justified in the name of "anti-fascism", of all things; that
this ultimate act of intolerance, could in some way be spun as a win for liberalism. In
truth, it was eerily reminiscent of the worst of the far-rightism they accused Kirk of: a
public execution for a supposedly higher cause.
Tear
It Out By The Roots — Ending Antifa. Charlie Kirk is dead. It seems
abundantly clear that he was killed by a leftist terrorist espousing the rhetoric and ideology of
Antifa and other radical domestic terrorists. Whether this assassin acted alone or as part of
a cell remains to be seen. We can say without hesitation, however, that Kirk's killing should
have come as a surprise to no one in American law enforcement or intelligence. We have had
abundant evidence for years now of the growth of a massive domestic terrorist infrastructure intent
on destroying the republic and employing violence in pursuit of that aim. The anarchists in
this country are very explicit about the use of direct action, which includes violence. They
celebrate it. They discuss it and describe it and glory in it. [Video clip]

Illinois
Lawmaker Files Impeachment Articles Against Gov. JB Pritzker For "Inciting Violence".
An Illinois Republican state lawmaker, Representative Chris Miller, has filed articles of

statements. The articles were filed on Friday, September 12, 2025. In a statement,
Rep. Miller asserted that Governor Pritzker "has failed to uphold the oath of protecting the
Illinois Constitution and has failed to protect the citizens of Illinois." He specifically
cited three instances from earlier this year as evidence of the governor's alleged misconduct.

Governor: Alleged Charlie Kirk Shooter Not Cooperating with Authorities.
Accused Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson is not cooperating with law enforcement, Utah
Gov. Spencer Cox (R) said in appearances on network Sunday shows. "He has not confessed
to, to authorities," Cox told ABC News's This Week co-anchor Martha Raddatz. "He is, he is,
he is not cooperating, but, but, but all the people around him are cooperating. And I think
that's, that's, that's very important." Authorities arrested the 22-year-old on Friday.
He currently is in custody with charges expected to be formally filed on Tuesday, Cox said.

GLAAD
Smears Charlie Kirk, Puts Target On Back Of Other Conservative Activists. A GLAAD
spokesman smeared conservative Christian Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated on Wednesday while
speaking at Utah Valley University, as someone who "spread infinite amounts of disinformation about
LGBTQ people." The spokesman did not provide any examples, but told The Advocate, the
self-proclaimed "queer paper of record," that, "Lies and vitriol about transgender people were a
frequent part of his rhetoric and events." [Advertisement] It should be easy to find
examples because Kirk produced so many videos, but perhaps The Advocate failed to show any of
Kirk's "vitriol" because they don't exist. When Kirk engaged with the LGBT community, it was
always with respect. He saw the humanity in people who desperately want to be seen, heard,
and understood. The speakers who came to challenge Kirk's ideas wanted to sway his opinion,
but with the rock-solid foundation of the Bible, he would not move from his Christian
principles. He was kind, asked thought-provoking questions, and it was apparent that he cared
about the long-term outcome for the people he spoke with.

The
Next Question: Did Online Radical Groups Know About Charlie Kirk Assassination in
Advance? It's the first thing that comes to mind in awful situations like
this — did a deranged psychopath act alone, or did he have help? In the aftermath
of Turning Point USA co-founder and CEO Charlie Kirk's assassination on Wednesday by a young man
who appears to have wildly leftist tendencies, authorities want to know if he was a lone wolf or
whether his twisted internet "friends" had advance knowledge.

Dark
Money, Evil Intent. Tyler Robinson, Kirk's killer, embodied Antifa violence.
Kirk's September 11, 2025 assassination grew from Leftist rhetoric. For years, Democrats
and media called for "fighting in the streets," branding Trump a Hitler, fascist, racist,
"convicted felon" — all lies, dehumanizing. That rhetoric primed
Robinson — a lunatic leftist — to murder Kirk; his messages and bullet
casings proved it. The same dynamic fueled the 2020 BLM riots in Kenosha and the 2025 Antifa
attacks on conservative events. Propaganda scripted by the DSA, CCP-funded influencers, and
dark-money networks linked to Democrats turns rhetoric into rage. It weaponizes the mentally
ill and radical leftists to advance a Marxist-socialist agenda. Violence and death are not
accidents — they are the calculated byproduct of the Left's pursuit of power.
The
January 6 Rules. Apparently, in some attempted "gotcha" effort, social media
influencers on the Left are calling out MAGA's purported ideological pivot following the vile
response by many on their side to the assassination of Charlie Kirk last week. Kirk's legion
of admirers is publicly identifying individuals — many of whom unsurprisingly work in
the education system — cheering Kirk's murder online. Several have been fired
including perpetual head case Matthew Dowd at MSNBC. But it is MAGA's crusade to "cancel"
those haters, not the expression of hate itself necessarily, causing performative pearl-clutching
on the Left.
Congress
Must Root Out Leftist Funding That Created Climate Ripe For Kirk Assassination.
Charlie Kirk's assassination was a terrorist attack meant to discourage the conservative
movement. Even before authorities had suspected sniper Tyler Robinson in custody, we knew it
was likely the work of a radicalized mind brainwashed by far-left extremist rhetoric so vile that
he thought it was okay to kill someone. Where does this radicalization come from?
Follow the money. Conservative Mike Cernovich was correct in his Wednesday X post calling for
a congressional investigation into the funding of far-left extremism. Our political climate
is not an accident. Provocative leftist ideologies pushed with guerrilla marketing are used
to manipulate weak minds. Influence always costs money when the message is not pure enough to
resonate with people on its own.
NJ
hospital nurse claims retaliation for reporting doctor who 'celebrated' Kirk assassination.
A New Jersey nurse who reported a doctor who allegedly "cheered and celebrated" Charlie Kirk's
assassination is suing after she faced disciplinary action, her lawyer said in a lawsuit filed on
Friday. Lexi Kuenzle, 33, a nurse at Englewood Health, filed suit Friday against the
hospital, Dr. Matthew Jung and others for the incident that allegedly occurred "in front of
patients and staff." "She had the audacity to question how Dr. Jung can comply with the
Hippocratic Oath's and the American Medical Association's Code of Medical Ethics while celebrating
the murder of a non-violent Christian speaker who was on a college campus," Kuenzle's attorney,
John Coyle, said in the complaint. Dr. Jung then allegedly "offered to 'buy lunch' for
the nursing staff that he offended," the lawsuit states.
Charlie
Kirk's Assassin May Be Part of a Larger Left-Wing Terror Effort. Following the
assassination of Charlie Kirk, there was a sigh of relief when the suspected shooter finally got
caught. But now, according to reports, investigators are looking into whether this was more
than just a radicalized young man with a gun and perhaps part of a bigger conspiracy.
[Advertisement] While the alleged shooter, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, sits in custody, the
FBI's probe is beginning to suggest that this was no simple case of a disturbed individual
snapping. What's emerging looks far more deliberate, disturbingly organized, and rooted in
the leftist networks that have turned political violence into a feature of modern activism.
According to a report from the New York Post, investigators are digging deeper than just the
accused shooter; they're looking at potential ties to radical leftist groups. The probe is
targeting both local outfits in Utah and online networks, including users on the gaming platform Steam.

Why
the Left Wants the Right to 'Lower the Temperature'. In the aftermath of the brutal
assassination of Charlie Kirk last week, does the Right need to "lower the temperature" of its
rhetoric? That's what the usual suspects on the Left are saying. As it happens,
"lowering the temperature" while simultaneously raising the intelligence of discussion was one of
Charlie Kirk's specialties. A theme of his campus "American Comeback" tour (which his widow
Erika plans to continue) was dignified debate. "Prove Me Wrong" was Charlie's mantra.
He eagerly engaged with college students who disagreed — or, sometimes, merely thought
they disagreed — with him about a wide range of political, social, moral, and religious
issues. If you have never seen him debate, I recommend you consult Mr. Google or one of
his professional counterparts and watch Charlie in action. He was robust but also unfailingly
kind, patient, and attentive to his interlocutors. The reason? He wished to persuade
his audience about the rightness of his point of view, about the virtues of America, the wisdom of
Christianity, and the leadership of Donald Trump. Charlie was fundamentally a teacher.
No
decency, after all. Mainstream Democrats are linking to this piece on Reuters.
["]Ideological label of suspect, if any, hard to define, expert says.["]
The expert sought out by Reuters goes ahead and tries to define it anyway. She concludes that
Tyler Robinson was a super-far-right radical who thought that soft-on-communism Charlie Kirk was
too far left. No, really, What I learned today is that once you go far-right enough, all of
your political enemies become "fascists." Reuters "reports," ["]An expert on
democracy and security said it was hard to read too much into the messages left on the shell
casings recovered by authorities. One of the inscriptions read: "hey fascist!
CATCH!"["] What could that mean? ["]Rachel Kleinfeld, a senior
fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, said the symbology found on the bullet
casings suggests the shooter had affiliation with the so-called Groyper movement, associated with
far-right activist and commentator Nick Fuentes.["] Kirk was a fascist, you see,
because he wasn't right enough for Robinson and Fuentes. Case closed.
Report:
Charlie Kirk's killer lived with a trans roommate/partner — who is said to be
cooperating with the FBI. Well isn't this interesting... As we learn more about
communist Democrat Tyler Robinson, now we find out he was living with a trans "partner" or roommate
at the time of the Charlie Kirk killing. So far, it's being reported that this trans
individual is fully cooperating with the FBI. The partner/roommate is a biological male trans
into a female. This is from Brooke Singman of Fox News... If this is true, be careful not
to lump the trans person in with this murder... I doubt the trans person would be cooperating with
the FBI if it was involved in anyway. [Tweet, advertisements, nothing further.]
FBI
Confirms: Kirk's Killer in 'Romantic Relationship' With Transgender. Tyler
Robinson was not only a leftist, he was radical LGBTQ, per newly released information. After
Fox News correspondent and reporter Brooke Singman reported this morning that Tyler Robinson,
accused of killing TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk Wednesday, had a "transgender" partner, Fox followed
up with FBI officials. The outlet subsequently reported that senior FBI officials confirmed
Tyler was in a "romantic relationship" with a man who is "transitioning" to be a woman.
[Advertisement] The FBI, which was having difficulty identifying the shooter before Robinson's
own family and a pastor contacted by the father turned him in, has sworn to investigate every
detail connected with the heartbreaking assassination of Kirk.
Some
Thoughts on the Assassination of Charlie Kirk. Some decades ago, Mao's CCP encouraged
critics of the communist regime to speak up. They were shocked to find out how much
disagreement with their policies there was and the brave (or feckless) ones who believed the
Hundred Flowers campaign was a genuine effort to encourage free speech found themselves in prison,
re-education camps or dead. In a way, I'm reminded of that campaign this week,
people — mostly educators, medical professionals, media members, government employees,
and even some acting military and one Secret Service member — expressed the most
repulsive, anti-democratic views in supporting the assassination. They did so in the mistaken
belief propagated mostly by teachers, universities, the media, Democrat officials, and celebrities,
that these views were anodyne and held by all right thinkers. As they face
consequences — shunning, firing, loss of business, loss of visas — many of
these same people are posting videos of themselves crying in shock that the views they hold are not
acceptable and that they are being held to account for them. In the case of China, it was the
government punishing citizens for free speech. In America today it is citizens holding
accountable those who think murder is an acceptable means to silence speech with which they disagree.
Report:
Suspect in Charlie Kirk's assassination lived with transgender partner, shot Kirk during question
about trans shooters. I'm sure the media will find a way to spin this somehow.
From Fox News reporter Brooke Singman: [Same tweet as above.] If you are trying to keep
track, this would imply that Robinson is a gay man living with another gay man who likes to dress
in women's clothing. [Advertisement] [Tweet] According to the FBI and Utah
Gov. Spencer Cox, Robinson wrote far-left messages on his bullet casings in support of
transgender and Antifa ideology. [Screenshot] The shooter was also described by a friend
as "really leftist," (though the far-left British outlet The Guardian retracted that part of
its report after people started noticing it).
Governor
Cox: 'Investigators' Know Kirk Assassin Was 'Deeply Indoctrinated With Left-Wing Ideology'.
Utah Governor Spencer Cox has set the record straight in an interview with The Wall Street Journal,
directly contradicting left-wing attempts to claim the Charlie Kirk assassin was "right-wing."
[Advertisement] As RedState reported, there has been a perverse, incoherent attempt to try to
blame Kirk's assassination not only on himself, but to suggest left-wing ideology played no role in
the heinous crime. One of the latest to do it was disgraced former congressman Adam
Kinzinger, who put out this post on Saturday morning. [Tweet] According to Cox, though,
who has direct involvement in the investigation, it is "very clear" to investigators that Tyler
Robinson was "indoctrinated with leftist ideology."
Charlie
Kirk's alleged assassin Tyler Robinson lived with transgender partner: source.
Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin Tyler Robinson was living with a transgender partner who was in the
process of transitioning from male to female, a law enforcement source confirmed to The [New York]
Post Saturday. That individual, who has yet to be publicly identified by the authorities, is
now fully cooperating with the FBI on its investigation into the fatal shooting of the conservative
activist, the source added. The relationship was first reported by Fox News' Brooke
Singman. According to public records, Lance Twiggs, 22, resided at the same address where
Robinson lived. A relative of Twiggs confirmed to The Post Saturday that "yes, they were roommates."
Tyler
Robinson's roommate who tipped off FBI is identified. A 22-year-old wannabe
professional gamer who lived with Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin gave cops incriminating text
messages leading to his arrest. Lance Twiggs turned over Tyler Robinson, who lived with him
in a three-bedroom apartment in Saint George, Utah, Daily Mail can reveal. Twiggs showed
police texts from Robinson about stashing a gun linked to Wednesday's shooting of the prominent
conservative activist at Utah Valley University (UVU), a law enforcement affidavit said. His
identity was revealed as separate reports emerged from Fox and the New York Post which stated that
Robinson was living with a 'transgender partner' who is co-operating with the investigation.
It is unclear if Twiggs is the same person referenced in the reports and he has not been named in
the affidavit. His grandfather, Jerry Twiggs, told Daily Mail that he was unable to comment
on rumors that he is trans and that there was a transgender motive to Kirk's murder.
Calls
to 'haul' Bluesky CEO before Congress grow louder. The left loves to point the finger
at MAGA and cry "radicalization." Everyday people, suburban moms and dads, mowing their
lawns, paying their bills, and wanting a safe country are suddenly painted as "radicals."
It's hogwash. The real radicalization is staring us in the face, and it's far uglier than
anything they've ever accused us of. On the left-wing social media app Bluesky, the
assassination of Charlie Kirk is being celebrated like a national holiday. The entire site
reads like a grotesque party, with users cheering, laughing, and even dancing over the murder of a
young husband and father, shot down for the simple crime of thinking differently. [Two
advertisements] And it doesn't stop there. The mob on Bluesky is now taking it even
further by openly naming other conservatives they want to see assassinated next.
The
Left Doesn't Want You to Know the Truth About Charlie Kirk's Killer. The left is
always obsessed with the race, gender, religion, and ideology of both the victim and the
perpetrator — and if the facts don't fit their preferred narrative, the incident gets
buried or twisted. Now, they're doing it again — this time with the man who killed
civil rights leader Charlie Kirk. We learned Friday that the man suspected of killing Kirk
was caught and arrested, and the left is really working hard to invent a story where Robinson is a
Trump supporter — even though that narrative makes no sense at all. In fact, the
available facts say the exact opposite. Robinson left behind ammunition casings with mocking
left-wing anti-fascist slogans — "Hey, fascist! Catch!" — and even one
marked with "Bella ciao," an anthem tied to leftist resistance fighters. These weren't just
random scribbles; they were declarations steeped in the rhetoric of the radical left.
High
School Friend: Shooter Was 'Pretty Far Left on Everything'. As David pointed
out earlier, there are a bunch of alternative theories floating around about what motivated Charlie
Kirk's killer. One that is popping up a lot today is the claim that Tyler Robinson was
actually a conservative. [Advertisement] Where are people coming up with this? Well,
it appears his family was pretty conservative. His father is in law enforcement and there are
photos of them with guns. They lived in a conservative part of a heavily red state.
Both parents were registered Republicans. Lacking much more than that, some people are just
making up their own evidence, such as this Photoshopped image of the shooter in a Trump
shirt. It's totally fake but it seems to have gotten lots of attention. [Tweet]
Alleged
Kirk Assassin A "Radical Left ANTIFA-Adjacent Creep" Wrote "Hey Fascist" On Bullet Casing.
On Friday afternoon, chatter on X pointed to an alleged Discord channel tied to Tyler Robinson,
Charlie Kirk's suspected assassin. The online platform is the same one previously used by the
Butler assassin, raising serious questions about whether radical leftist groups are exploiting
Discord to indoctrinate youth and push them toward militant accelerationism. [Tweet] [...] The
key question is whether Discord is being used as a radicalization weapon by leftist groups against
vulnerable youth. "Subpoena Discord and investigate the founders, @jasoncitron knows what
they are hiding. Terror cells are being groomed within their platform, and they know it," one
X user stated. [Tweet]
Dehumanization:
How the Left Justifies Killing Conservatives. [Scroll down] Normal people
don't advocate for the killing of non-violent people just for the things they say. That's why
some of the most evil and shrewd operatives walking on this planet know that to win acceptance of
murder as an activist tool, they must first dehumanize their targets. This has been building
for years, and it has been particularly strong since Donald Trump became president. As early
as 2016, it was largely accepted that anyone wearing a MAGA hat in public was subjecting himself or
herself to physical and verbal harassment and assault. Turning Point USA volunteers learned
to expect that their detractors on college campuses would get into their events and cause scenes,
and not infrequently attack them and vandalize their tables, tents, and displays. Trump has
been called "Hitler" and a "fascist" so routinely that, in the leftist bubbles on social media and
in the legacy media, those words are branded to him and the MAGA movement at large. Since it
seems the only period of history that matters to the left is Germany in the 1940s, let's look at
this through the prism of what the Nazis did to dehumanize the Jews, which ultimately convinced
regular Germans to tacitly condone the atrocities that followed.

group within America openly threaten police, use violence against police, throw Molotov cocktails,
bricks and explosive fireworks at police. Use batons, shields, bats and physical violence
against police and federal law enforcement; destroy vehicles, set cars on fire, destroy property,
trash and block the streets and create chaos... Completely without being stopped? It doesn't
matter where it is happening, that's irrelevant. Think plainly and simply. How does any
individual or group get to do this without being arrested?
New
Evidence Emerges on Kirk Assassin's Political Views, Countering Attempt to Paint Him As 'Right-Wing'.
With the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk on Wednesday has come the inevitable political idiocy
in the aftermath. As RedState reported, it was revealed that Tyler Robinson had engraved
anti-fascist phrases and other oddities on the ammunition he used in his bolt-action .30-06 rifle.
That, along with the fact that he murdered one of the most prominent right-wing figures in the world,
didn't exactly point to him being on the political right. [Advertisement] Yet, by Friday
morning, the narrative that Robinson was actually a "right-wing groyper" was spreading like wildfire
on social media, pushed by many large Democrat accounts. Others claimed that because his parents
were Republicans and he was white, it was simply impossible that Robinson could hold left-wing views,
a completely nonsensical assertion.
What
the Messages on the Bullets of Charlie Kirk's Assassin Mean. [Scroll down]
The Wall Street Journal originally reported that the bullet casings were engraved with
"transgender... ideology," but that is not readily apparent. What the messages do show is an
internet-specific brand of trollish nihilism adopted by many recent shooters. For example,
the 23-year-old shooter who killed two children and injured 19 others at a Minneapolis
Catholic school on August 27 left a monologue on their YouTube channel that referenced Waco
and Ruby Ridge, but also "Loss," an infamous 2008 web comic that's become one of the longest-running
insider jokes on the internet. The copycat style that has emerged is both deadly serious and a
put-on, and part of the "joke" is that it's largely inscrutable for those who haven't marinated their
brains in online culture. But it's not original or particularly meaningful.
The
New Left-Wing Narrative: Tyler Robinson Was a White Supremacist Republican Trump Supporter.
If you spend any time on X, you will see that the left is now pushing the narrative that Charlie
Kirk's assassin was actually a Republican because his parents were. [Advertisement] Those
Antifa scribblings? Misdirection. The fact that he shot a conservative friend of the
Trump family? It is part of a fascist conspiracy to start the civil war that the left has
been calling for over the past decade. Seriously, they are going with that. [Tweet]
There are lots of these posts out there, and some of them are sharing photos and personal information
of young men with the same name (I won't spread those), but I think a man who worked in the White
House for Bill Clinton and runs an anti-Trump political action committee is fair game.
Charlie
Kirk and the apocalyptic narcissism of trans. It is the blackest irony, like a sick
joke by the universe, that Charlie Kirk was gunned down as he discussed gun violence. That
word — 'violence' — was the last he ever uttered. Milliseconds later,
violence of the gravest kind was visited on him. Actually, we need to be more specific:
Kirk was discussing trans violence in the seconds before his death. He was pushing back
against one of his student interlocutors who seemed to downplay the phenomenon of trans mass
shootings. The student badgered Kirk to say how many such shootings there have been. 'Too
many', Kirk replied. Seconds later, his carotid artery was severed and he was dead. I'm
not suggesting Kirk was executed for daring to talk about trans violence. The gunman will not
have been able to hear what Kirk was saying — he was on a rooftop 200 yards away.
[...] The thing is, he was right: there are too many trans shootings. There has been a
violent turn in the trans ideology. The trans sect does seem ever-more consumed by a brutish
animus for anyone who dissents from its post-truth orthodoxies; for those [...] who dare to
withhold their validation from men who claim to be women or youths who claim to be non-binary.
Democrats
today showed us their murderous colors. What matters today is the public
assassination of Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, a college-focused pro-American
conservative organization that has done more in the past ten years to reshape American culture than
any pundit or politician anywhere. Why was Kirk murdered? The murderer is still at
large but we can make a reasonable guess. Kirk, only 31, was an outspoken conservative who
unequivocally believed in the fundamentals of American society, including freedom, small
government, color-blind rules, and the right of every person to pursue happiness. This is not
propaganda on my part. I have listened to many of Kirk's speeches and appearances, and at no
time did he do anything to contradict these conclusions. If anything, he made these beliefs
crystal clear to anyone who would listen. [...] The left and its propaganda press will work hard to
make excuses for this evil act, but as they do so they will simply prove my point above.
Already anchors on MSNBC are slandering him again, calling him "divisive" and "awful" who said
things that upset people and thus we shouldn't be surprised he was killed. "It was HIS
fault!" On social media leftists are celebrating this evil act, showing us how utterly evil
they are.
After
Charlie Kirk's murder, the Democrats revel in two minutes of hate and attack the Second
Amendment. We knew that the left's response to Charlie Kirk's assassination would be
ugly, but it was uglier than anyone could have predicted and infinitely more stupid, too. It
was uglier because hordes of people celebrated the death of a young father because they disagreed
with his ideas, and it was stupid because of how they approached the gun control arguments that
always arise when someone, anyone, gets shot. [...] What we witnessed in real time was Orwell's
famed two minutes of hate, voluntarily exercised against a murder victim and lasting a lot longer
than two minutes. At the top, there was the group response from elected Democrats:
[Tweet with video clip]
The
time for dialogue is over. I cannot and will not use my platform to call for
retaliatory violence, but if you think this is going to stop because every significant Democrat
posted their phony sympathies on X, you are out of your mind. Left-wingers who spend all day
consuming propaganda mainstream media, getting ideas from influencers on social media, and
communicating exclusively with those who hold their hate-filled ideas will continue to strike,
because their political ideology is their world and indeed their religion. They are turning
the United States into a third-world nation in decorum and behavior, and as many pointed out
yesterday, have now broken the social contract that makes us Americans. The left are
not Americans. They are demon-possessed, hate-filled sycophants for a cause of evil,
and I am done mincing words and playing nice.
Scott
Adams on the Murder of Charlie Kirk: 'I Believe the Democrat Party Has to be Totally Dismantled'.
Scott Adams, the creator of the famous 'Dilbert' comic strip, talked about the murder of Charlie
Kirk during his 'Coffee With Scott Adams' podcast today and suggested that the Democrat party has
to be 'totally dismantled.' Citing a tweet from conservative activist Mike Cernovich, Adams
pointed out that the Democrat party is supported not just by a small group of progressive
billionaires, but also by an endless web of non-profits and various NGOs (non-government
organizations). Adams emphasizes the fact that he would not have made these comments just a
few days ago, but that he took the murder of Charlie Kirk personally and that Democrats not only
spread the rhetoric that led to this, they have actually made it worse in the two days that followed.
The
Same Left That Called Luigi Mangione A Hero Is Now Laughing At Charlie Kirk's
Assassination. Just minutes after an assassin's bullet ripped into conservative icon
Charlie Kirk during an appearance at Utah Valley University, twisted liberals took to social and
corporate media airwaves. The "co-exist" and "tolerance" crowd gloated and rejoiced over
Kirk's violent end, spewing schadenfreude with the glee of children in a candy store. An
apparently conscienceless woman jumped on TikTok to tell anyone who would listen that "the best
part" of the assassination of the co-founder of Turning Point USA is that Kirk is "not martyr
material." "So his death will mean nothing," she opines, smiling smugly. "It will
activate no one. It will impact few. It's just great." [Tweet]
This
Is a Good Time to Let the Haters Rot In Their Miserable Lives. Leftists are
inherently miserable people, we know that. They also think that misery should be spread
around and communal. They've been spreading a lot of it around for many years, but it's
really gotten bad of late. [Advertisement] Catholic school kids are gunned down at
Mass. A young refugee woman is brutally murdered by a lunatic who was only on the streets
because Democrats fetishize and glorify criminals. Now a young husband and father who was a
refreshingly positive voice in the negative world of politics has been assassinated. That's a
lot to process for decent people. For the mentally unwell American Left, it's just another
reason to get even louder about how much they hate people who don't agree with them politically.
The
Weatherman: Some Brief Thoughts. First, the murder of Charlie Kirk is just the next
level up the behavioral chain from the way Robert F. Kennedy was just treated in front of a Senate
committee. He wasn't mistaken, or wrong: He was an unforgivable monster, wholly
illegitimate in every imaginable sense, who had no views or arguments that were worth considering
in any way, and the only possible response to him is personal destruction. Our institutional
left is a rage mob with formal titles. We're not having a debate. Second, the
transition to radical violence is a reflection of the events that followed the death of the radical
dream of the 1960s New Left. After the hippies, the Weatherman and the Symbionese Liberation
Army. The turn to radical violence is the turn that follows obvious failure. It's an
acknowledgement of political impotence, and a last-ditch emergency reflex: If they won't
submit to our political vision, we'll coerce them into submission. It's the death
rattle. It means the arguing and convincing has failed, and they see the failure.
Assassinations
Will Continue Until The GOP Creates Real Consequences For Leftist Violence. Charlie
Kirk — a generational voice of the conservative movement — was assassinated
Wednesday while hosting one of his famous campus discussion events. We still don't know the
identity of the shooter, but that doesn't mean we don't know who is responsible. Radical
leftists bear great blame for engaging in inflammatory rhetoric that can only be described as
assassination prep. And Republicans bear responsibility, too, for letting it come to this.
[Advertisement] Before Kirk died at the hands of an assassin, leftist radicals tried to kill
Rep. Steve Scalise, President Donald Trump (twice), and Supreme Court Justice Brett
Kavanaugh. Statements of condemnation and condolence were issued, but that was it. Mike
Cernovich put it this way on X: "The weakness of the GOP led us to this moment. A mass
shooter attempted to murder dozens of Republican congress members. Few people even know this
happened. Republicans 'just took it,' as they always do. And now Charlie Kirk is
dead. Recognize what time it is or resign." The leftists who support this
violence — from elected Democrats to talking heads to the foot soldiers who cheer when
someone like Kirk is murdered — have been conditioned to know their camp will suffer no
real consequences when their violent worldview creates assassins who target conservatives.
They've watched Republicans cave on every front, from culture to speech, elections, and even
physical violence.
'Professional
Hit'? Some Lawmakers Speculate on Nature of Kirk's Killing. As the investigation
continues into the fatal shooting Wednesday of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk at Utah
Valley University, some congressmen say they think the killing might have been a "professional
hit." The investigation of the killing and the manhunt for the perpetrator are ongoing.
The FBI recently released an image of a "person of interest" who was on the scene of the
assassination. The announcement followed the release of two other people who had been taken
into custody. An award of up to $100,000 has been offered by the FBI for information leading
to the arrest of the suspect. The rifle thought to have been used to assassinate Kirk was
found in a "wooded area where the shooter had fled," according to the FBI. House Oversight
Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., told reporters Thursday that he suspects the killing was a
professional hit, given the apparent sophistication of the assassin's techniques.
Charlie
Kirk's Death And America Regaining Its Footing On The Righteous Path. One never knows
for sure beforehand, but I think Charlie Kirk's assassination may be something of a tipping point
in American politics and culture, or, at a minimum, an inflection point. Why? Because
Charlie wasn't a radical, he wasn't a firebrand, he wasn't a bomb thrower... No, Charlie
was — in a relative sense — a lamb. And now, that lamb has been
slaughtered. [...] Charlie Kirk was attractive, engaging, effective, and brave. And the left
killed him for it because violence is all that the left has to offer. As Charlie demonstrated
every time he took to a podium to speak or a table to debate, words, eloquently delivered, with
passion and supported by facts, can be a powerful weapon in the battle of ideas and policy.
The left had no good answer to Charlie. Sure, they have passion, and they sometimes have
eloquence, but they rarely have facts or reality on their side, and even less often, common sense.
Footage
Shows Individual Running Across Roof of Losee Center Moments After Charlie Kirk Assassination.
A shocking new video has surfaced that shows an alleged shooter running above the roof after the assassination
of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University. According to the New York Times,
UVU spokeswoman Ellen Treanor confirmed that Kirk was struck by gunfire from a shooter positioned at the
Losee Center, a building roughly 200 yards away from where Kirk was addressing students. [...] John
Solomon told Steve Bannon that while details are still emerging, early indications suggest Charlie Kirk's
assassination may have been a calculated professional hit. [Video clip]
A
history of violence. The assassination of Charlie Kirk is a horrific reminder that
the left is based on nothing other than terror, violence, and aggression. [...] Violence is built
into the very foundations of leftist ideology. Marx himself fantasized in print over the
apocalyptic events that would accompany the revolution of the proletariat. Mikhail Bakunin
preached the "propaganda of the deed" — political activism by means of bombing and
assassination. Sergei Nechaev was so eager for blood that he began killing his own followers
(he was also crazy enough to terrify even Bakunin). Pyotr Tkachev calmly asserted that 10% of the
bourgeoisie would have to die following the revolution, a sentiment echoed by none other than
Obama's bestie, Bill Ayers. All this rhetoric came to a head in the next century thanks to
Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Mengistu, and a legion of others, at the cost of 100 million dead or
more. The Age of Massacre could not have occurred without the Left.
Democrats
and the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Over the past decade, major media outlets,
often aligned with progressive ideologies, have characterized Republicans and conservatives as
extreme threats, using terms like "Hitler" or "Nazis." This rhetoric has been employed to
unify a diverse Democrat base that encompasses a wide range of issues and priorities. Without
a common adversary to rally against, the Democrat Party risks internal fragmentation, potentially
undermining its electoral success. However, this strategy of labeling political opponents as
existential dangers has contributed significantly to the heightened political division and violence
observed today. [...] The Democrat Party has accepted divisive rhetoric, condoned violence, and
destroyed the political climate that prioritizes civil discourse. It has eroded the fabric of
American society.
Charlie
Kirk and the madness of the left. Democrats may be historically illiterate, but
there's one thing they know: Hitler is bad, so good people kill Hitler. Just as the
Islamists have been doing, the leftists have created dozens, hundreds, even thousands of lone
wolves, all of whom are carefully cultivated time bombs who give the people in the pulpits
plausible deniability. "We didn't tell them to kill. They decided to do it on their
own." Throw in several thousand mentally ill, heavily medicated, and physically mutilated
people who have been assured that they can change their fundamental biological being through
will-power and cultural bullying, and you've got a boiling cauldron of murderous rage. And so
Charlie Kirk had to die.

Philadelphia," conservative pundit Charlie Kirk posted on Twitter/X, reacting to the breaking news.

Antifa
Tried to Overrun UC Davis Building Where Charlie Kirk Was Speaking. Violent antifa
protesters were arrested at the University of California — Davis campus on Tuesday after
clashing with law enforcement officers and students outside a building hosting an event with Salem
radio host and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. The demonstrators, clad in black and
many using umbrellas to conceal their identities, smashed through windows, tossed eggs, used pepper
spray, and blocked people from entering the building. According to UC Davis, one officer was injured.
The
hypocrisy of liberals hits a new low. I hate double standards with a passion. It was perfectly fine for
Madonna to say that she wanted to blow up the White House after Donald Trump was elected. Kathy Griffin held up a model
of President Trump's decapitated bloody head. Juli Briskman flipped off President Trump's motorcade and subsequently won a
seat on a county board of supervisors in Virginia. There were also the infamous pink hats, an attack on a seven-year-old
wearing a MAGA hat, and Trump supporters Candace Owens, Charlie Kirk, and Sarah Huckabee Sanders driven out of restaurants.
None of these incidents of violence and hatred caused liberals to turn a hair.

Conservative
activist assaulted at UC-Berkeley campus during recruitment drive. University of California police want the
public's help tracking down a suspect whose brutal alleged assault of a conservative activist on the Berkeley campus was

recruiting members to his group, and an argument ensued. The alleged victim, identified by Turning Point USA as Hayden
Williams, held up his cell phone and began filming the two men who were allegedly harassing him. One of the two men
knocked over the table, police said, and then punched Williams several times, causing injuries to his face. Much of the
incident was captured on a witness' cellphone, but it was unclear what, if anything, Williams may have said before the
attack. The suspects had left by the time police arrived.
Stop
saying "protesters" when you're talking about a mob. Yesterday [8/6/2018] we all saw the news of what happened
when Candace Owens and Charlie Kirk attempted to have breakfast at a restaurant in Philadelphia. At the time I didn't
feel particularly inspired to write anything about it because it just all seemed so predictable at this point. But I
noticed one headline from the Independent in Britain this morning which caught my attention because it contained such an
obvious, glaring error in the headline. "Candace Owens chased out of restaurant by left-wing protesters." Why are
we sticking with this idea that any group of people who decide to gang up on someone they disagree with are "protesters?"
Left-wing
mob interrupts Candace Owens' breakfast with primal screams. Earlier, Ed wrote about Twitter coming after
Candace Owens for quoting NY Times hire Sarah Jeong's tweets (but replacing the word "white" with "Jewish"). Twitter
apologized after realizing they had helped make Owens' point. But Owens was involved in some more drama this morning
[8/6/2018]. She and fellow Turning Point USA leader Charlie Kirk were having breakfast at a cafe in Philadelphia when
they were surrounded by a screeching mob.
I
remember when we called them mobs. According to a quick dictionary check, a mob is a large crowd of people,
especially one that is disorderly and intent on causing trouble or violence. In other words, a mob is not a group of
people having a serious disagreement over policy. A mob is not into seriousness but rather than causing trouble.
A mob wants to punch your face rather than hear your opinion. We call on the media to call this a mob, not a protest.

Journalist calls for profs to drown conservative
students. After conservative activist Charlie Kirk tweeted about conservative students being penalized for

to death, but Farrar insisted that "I am not joking."
