If we want to stop political violence like what happened to Charlie Kirk, we have to be honest about the people who are celebrating it and the people who are financing it.

It wasn’t until Utah Gov. Spencer Cox spelled out the transgender links to the suspect in Charlie Kirk’s assassination that the New York Times and the rest of the Hate Media and their social media offshoots finally gave up the absurd nudge-nudge-wink-wink pretense that the killer was its favorite type of villain, a MAGA gun nut.
Nope, Tyler Robinson, 22, turns out to be a hard-core leftist, Antifa devotee and Kirk-hater who was living with his transgender boyfriend, identified as Lance Twiggs, 22, who stated, “We are riding with Biden” in a 2022 post on the social media platform Reddit.

The morning after the murder of Charlie Kirk, NPR’s Morning Edition turned to Kyle Spencer, a leftist author of a 2022 book titled Raising Them Right: The Untold Story About America’s Ultraconservative Youth Movement And Its Plot For Power. NPR host Michel Martin repeated the “ultraconservative” title three times. Spencer’s personal website describes her book as explaining “how radical extremists message anti-democratic ideals via social media, online celebrity culture and false facts.”
A large part of me feels filthy comparing the two because Charlie Kirk doesn’t deserve for anyone to lump him into the same category as George Floyd. Even if we accept the central thesis of the Black Lives Matter movement — that George Floyd was murdered in a senseless act of police violence — the circumstances between the two were extraordinarily different, and no one should lose sight of why…

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.

A Texas Tech student was arrested after she was filmed mocking Charlie Kirk’s assassination and harassing mourners at a vigil for the conservative influencer.
Camryn Giselle Booker, 18, was recorded jumping around and yelling at fellow students paying tribute to Kirk, “F–k y’all homie dead, he got shot in the head.”

So many demons.
PHOENIX—When Olivia Hubbard left Iowa to go to college she thought she was going to get a break from the conservatism her dad was always touting. Instead, she was politically awakened.
Hubbard, now 19, was convinced by a roommate to see Charlie Kirk last year when he visited Grand Canyon University, 20 minutes from the headquarters of Kirk’s organization, Turning Point USA. Listening to Kirk speak, Hubbard said, was like hearing all of her beliefs articulated clearly.
“I thought it was super cool that there’s someone younger who was going to all these universities, and who did believe in God and really made that known,” said Hubbard, who is Christian. From that moment on she was hooked, staying up late watching videos of Kirk debating liberal students on other college campuses.

Charlie Kirk’s alleged killer is “not co-operating” with authorities and has not confessed to carrying out the shooting, Utah’s governor Spencer Cox has said.
Suspect Tyler Robinson, 22, was taken into custody some 33 hours after Kirk, a 31-year-old right-wing activist, was shot dead in Orem on Wednesday.
Cox, a Republican, told several Sunday morning shows that investigators were still trying to establish a motive but people around Mr Robinson were co-operating.
My feed is chock full of this kind of thing as I’m sure yours is as well lately. It’s dark, disheartening, and makes you question humanity itself.
But here’s the good part: Decency is going to win. https://t.co/rPzaYt4ua1

The cold-blooded killing of campaigner Charlie Kirk on a university campus in Utah should have been a moment of shared grief for everyone. A young father who believed in and lived by a code of free speech and debate was gunned down in front of horrified students.
As we know, the reaction of certain sections of the Left in Britain and America was appalling. If they offered sympathy it was heavily caveated and, by applying labels like “far-Right”, they appeared to suggest he had brought it on himself.
Yet here in Germany, the response of the media class was even more disturbing. They seemed to revel in it.
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.
A deranged leftist has been caught on camera firing shots towards a MAGA supporter’s home after ripping a Donald Trump sign from his property.
Swain County Sheriff’s Office said they were called to a river rafting business in rural Bryson City, North Carolina, just before 6pm on September 6 to reports of gunshots.
The chaos was over by the time deputies arrived at the Paddle Inn Rafting Company, but the owner shared a video showing what happened on YouTube.
My disappointment in Premier Wab Kinew could not be stronger. Why is he afraid to hold Minister Nahanni Fontaine accountable? This is not about politics; it is about standards. Fontaine posted on Instagram, celebrating that another person had “absolutely no empathy” for Charlie Kirk, a man assassinated in front of his wife and children, calling him a racist, xenophobic, transphobic, Islamophobic, sexist white nationalist mouthpiece. She dismissed his life entirely because she disagreed with his politics. That was not just a lapse in judgment. That was an elected minister celebrating the murder of a political opponent. And the Premier’s response was to ask her to apologize.

I’ve written before about preference cascades — where large portions of the public, often a majority, conceal their views for fear of punishment, only to reveal those views when some precipitating event takes place. Classic examples include the fall of Communist regimes, like Ceausescu’s Romania, where even Ceausescu himself thought everyone loved him until shortly before he was stood in front of a wall and shot.
Usually those happen in one direction. But in contemporary America, they’re happening in two.
We’ve entered an age of delusion, impossible longings, and ritual self-mutilation.
Asked whether she could provide a definition of the word “woman,” Ketanji Brown Jackson, Supreme Court nominee, magna cum laude at Harvard and graduate of Harvard Law, seemed perplexed: “I’m not a biologist,” she observed. Yet we are told by Jeremi Carswell, a specialist in the field, that children know perfectly well which of many genders they wish to grow up to be “from the moment that they have any ability to express themselves.”
During the 2020 pandemic, because of safety concerns, San Francisco took draconian measures to keep adults apart and children out of school, even as it promoted and protected the use of dangerous drugs by a large homeless population. That year, 257 San Franciscans died from the virus, while the number of overdose deaths climbed to 697.
I remembered this essay from 2024 and it seems even more appropriate in light of events. We face an enemy that is willing to kill to protect its delusions.
President Donald Trump issued his most explosive remarks yet following the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, blaming the ‘radical left’ for obstructing national healing and explicitly calling for billionaire Democratic donor George Soros to be jailed under racketeering laws.
In a phone interview with NBC News, Trump said he hopes the country can recover from the shock of Kirk’s killing but swiftly shifted blame to political opponents.
‘I’d like to see it [the nation] heal. But we’re dealing with a radical left group of lunatics, and they don’t play fair and they never did.’
