His young life’s work will be fulfilled in his legacy.
This is indeed a Turning Point for the USA.
Dear God, we lack the words. As the Father of all that is good and pure, wrap Your embrace around this family at this intense time of sadness and grief. You see this family who is suffering unbearable pain right now because of the loss of their beloved. We pray for You to comfort and carry these precious people in their pain, loss, and sadness. Blanket them with Your love and peace. Their hearts are broken and their life in strongest turmoil, so humbly we pray that You can provide them peace and strength within their hearts. We offer this prayer as they only now begin to navigate life without Charlie. Let them find serenity in You, knowing Charlie is at peace in Your arms. We pray for the blanket of comfort to overwhelm them knowing Charlie is with You, in a place of eternal peace. In Your most Holy name, we join and pray. ~ Amen.
“In honor of Charlie Kirk, a truly Great American Patriot, I am ordering all American Flags throughout the United States lowered to Half Mast until Sunday evening at 6 P.M.” ~ President Donald Trump


President Trump tribute statement regarding Charlie Kirk. (Video)
He honors Charlie Kirk and puts the blames where it belongs.
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/115182892535295750
That was good. I really feel for Charlie’s media friends that have to go on camera and keep it together. I know I couldn’t do it.
Really no need to keep it together. Let the tears flow and let the anger show so the evil perps who did this know and fear what they have unleashed.
Posted by Sean Feucht (who Carney banned from Canada for his Christian music concerts). A message which Charlie’s pastor Rob McCoy asked him to share.
“My friend Charlie Kirk was murdered today by a coward. His life will be remembered for many wonderful things. He built it all with the Power of the Spoken Word. He never used violence but was threatened every day with violence by those who couldn’t contend with logic and truth, and now they have done to my friend what evil always does; it takes away life.
Charlie did not die, however, but instead he has begun to truly live.. His life was secured eternally by His Saviour Jesus Christ. This truth allowed Charlie to face every threat with courage because he didn’t fear death.
All evil knows is death, and they derive their power from death. Charlie lived for life and will be remembered for this. My heart is broken for his family; his wife Erika and his two precious children.
Evil has not prevailed, and it will not win.”
No, in the end it will not.
‘…was threatened every day with violence by those who couldn’t contend with logic and truth…’
It seems the pool of such has been swelling for some time now in America.
Apace with the decline of the nuclear family, the rise of psychological disorders and psychiatric drugs, and the dumbing down of education, literacy, and critical thinking skills by oppressive government schools reinforced by groupthink stupidity everywhere.
And they get very angry when they lose debates repeatedly.
“Better to meet a bear robbed of her cubs than a fool in his folly.” (Proverbs 17:12)
The rise in resulting strife and chaos raises the question of whether there has been intentional “nudging” by certain veiled US state entities to drive this as part of “managing the decline” of the US. Entities headquartered in VA right across the Potomac from DC, which have been globally practicing such “nudging” for decades.
Reading initial Trump statements on the Kirk assassination, a thought comes to mind.
There seems to be a pattern:
Events > Increased state surveillance and control powers.
Examples:
Controlled demolition 9/11/2001 (ae911truth.org)
Plandemic/shot mandates.
Reichstag 2.0, Jan 6, 2021.
Charlie Kirk, 9/10/2025?
Could these all be manipulated by that veiled entity next to DC for increased power?
Orwell’s 1984 suggested that to such entities, ideology is irrelevant, the only thing that matters is power.
Charlie was like a shooting star lightìng up the night sky for a brief moment with truth. He lit the way to truth for many others. His work will not be forgotten, and neither will his love for truth.
A reading from the Book of Wisdom 3:1-9
The souls of the just are in the hand of God,
and no torment shall touch them.
They seemed, in the view of the foolish, to be dead;
and their passing away was thought an affliction
and their going forth from us, utter destruction.
But they are in peace.
For if before men, indeed they be punished,
yet is their hope full of immortality;
Chastised a little, they shall be greatly blessed,
because God tried them,
and found them worthy of himself.
As gold in the furnace, he proved them,
and as sacrificial offerings he took them to himself.
In the time of their visitation they shall shine,
and shall dart about as sparks through stubble;
They shall judge nations and rule over peoples,
and the LORD shall be their King forever.
Those who trust in him shall understand truth,
and the faithful shall abide with him in love:
Because grace and mercy are with his holy ones,
and his care is with his elect.
Thank you for posting this, as it is the crux of Charlie Kirk’s legacy. Have a blessed day, even as we grieve.
Thank you Sundance for that beautiful prayer. May God comfort all of us during this time. In Jesus name we pray.
I want to echo your thanks for the beautiful prayer.
Jessie Waters tribute to Charlie Kirk with firm words for those causing these events.
Amen to your prayer, Sundance. We are heartbroken at the loss of this young, powerful, beloved Patriotic Hero struck down in the prime of his life. This is a huge loss to our country and especially to our youth. But I pray we will now fight even harder against the abject Evil of the Left and their Deep State benefactors who empower/finance these demons and make their barbaric acts possible.
Lord Jesus, we pray for Your Grace, Strength, and Wisdom to help us fight the Enemy Within. Lord we know You have the power to topple entire regimes with one quick breath. Please have Mercy on America for the godless and depraved among us who spit on You and your gift of our great Constitutional Republic. We pray that You will shine Your light on all creatures of Darkness who plot and seek to destroy this. Please pull their cover, expose Charlie’s killers and all those who plot the destruction of America. We pray you will empower any honest law enforcement we have left in our county to have the courage to do their duty to bring them to Justice and take them off our streets forever. We pray for Your Divine intervention to shield and protect all Patriots, our beloved President Trump, and to save our Republic. Please lead us with Your Strength and Wisdom to again be a Beacon of light and hope for the world. We pray all these things in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen.
Amen.
We were privileged to attend the Turning Point USA conference in Phoenix last December. Incredibly well run and organized; terrific speakers including Charlie Kirk of course.
This is a huge loss for our country.
May God bring good from this tragic event, and comfort and console his lovely family and friends.
Hug friend and family tonight.
I’ve read this prayer again many times with a yearning that God would hear it more. And be beside Erica and her babies.
So cruel and vicious – seems to me it would be a dedicated professional, able to do that so expertly with one shot.
It isn’t just the shooter, of course – we need to know who sent him!
Dear God knows.
Isaiah 3: 11
Wow to the wicked! It will go badly with him, For what he deserves will be done to him.
Amen!
Did you mean woe instead of wow?
Don’t know if it was a state actor or a foreign actor, but if it was a foreign actor he is already out of the country. Never to be heard from again. Hopefully I am wrong and it was some crazy nutjob, easier to find.
A nutjob would likely already have been arrested, or neutralized if someone wound him up and pointed him at the target.
so sadness and angry,
Why?

Charlie Kirk
Your spirit will be missed .
Listening to Tim Pool tonight. He is talking about all of the events that are now being canceled, especially on university campuses. This shooting is successfully destroying the conservative voice on campus. There isn’t much of it, but even that little bit is too damned much for the indoctrination centers.
This is the problem we must face. Kirk’s death is devastating, but we also have to think about the future. The worst thing would be if Kirk’s death means the death of sanity on college campuses.
Yes. Retreat is not the answer, nor would it honor the good things Charlie Kirk accomplished.
Exactly. Instead of canceling, start with better security, including bulletproof plexiglass shields at the podium and anywhere they’re deemed necessary due to layout. Turn up the volume, don’t turn it off.
Turning Point USA must bring its best stars to continue Charlie’s campaign of reaching out and engaging young people, young adults whose minds are being fed and indoctrinated by a myriad of voices, all speaking against the values that Christian conservatives hold most dear. TPUSA has a successful record of opening eyes and bringing more of those young people into the mainstream conservative MAGA movement.
Baron Bodissey at Gates of Vienna calls a spade a spade
It’s Come to This
While I was out grocery shopping this afternoon, Charlie Kirk, the 31-year-old founder of Turning Point USA, was assassinated during an event at Utah Valley University
in what looks like a professional hit.
Sure looks like a professional hit.
There’s got to be a bunch of CCTV cameras on campus.
… AND … license-plate readers, those are widely used these days
I expect Palantier Stock will go up based on demands for more comprehensive surveillance and AI analysisis following this hit.
Consider that this is what the globalists want… more surveillance.
For all of us.
I am broken hearted, and blinded with rage.

“President Trump Delivers Remarks on Charlie Kirk”
Bobby Kennedy, whose father and uncle were assassinated said this about Charlie Kirk’s passing;
“Once again, a bullet has silenced the most eloquent truth teller of an era. My dear friend Charlie Kirk was our country’s relentless and courageous crusader for free speech. We pray for Erika and the children. Charlie is already in paradise with the angels. We ask his prayers for our country.”
Yes, pray for Iryna and pray for the rest of us, Charlie! We sorely need your intercession with the Giver of Light!
Amen. Eternal rest, grant unto him, O Lord, and may Perpetual Light shine upon him.
Somebody somewhere should make a full length film of his life.
Seriously.
.
One of a kind.
Beautiful and powerful prayer.
This is such a nightmare. I am so sorry for his beautiful wife and children. In recent months I sent my grown sons videos of Erika talking about how Charlie was her “human” and encouraging girls to wait for the right man. I am so brokenhearted and so are my sons aged 34, 31, and 28. They looked up to him so much. My youngest son went to a Bible study tonight where I am sure that his wonderful friends were praying for Charlie and his family.
Totally deserved! he and our dearest Rush are together now! That is the only good thing.
This should absolutely happen.
Maybe after a period of righteous anger and grief!
Those familiar with Charlie’s radio show know his signature show music was bagpipes playing “Scotland the Brave.”
Charlie certainly was a very brave man to live and die as he did. Great men who serve our Lord Jesus Christ in great ways must be brave.
In my mind right now I keep hearing the mournful, yet somehow also joyful, sound of bagpipes playing Amazing Grace.
G_d bless you and keep you Charlie Kirk.
Having lived through all the assassinations of the 60’s I remember this quote from George Bernard Shaw that was used in the eulogy for Robert F Kennedy.
I think it applies to Charlie Kirk very well.
“Some men see things as they are and say why. I dream things that never were and say why not.”
Has any one here seen my old friend, Charlie?
Can you tell me where he’s gone?
I thought I saw him walking up over the hill,
With Abraham, Martin, Bobby & John.
I love that song.
“Charlie’s children will be raised with stories instead of memories, photographs instead of laughter, and silence where their father’s voice should have echoed.
Charlie Kirk’s life should serve as a symbolic reminder that compassionate awareness elevates family, love, and country.”
https://x.com/FLOTUS/status/1965949685169795513
Can we please use the firing squad soon against this assassin?
How about, against those who sent the assassin?
That would be too kind. I vote to throw him in the alligator waters.
This one feels so different. He was remarkable in so many ways. Truly, no one could do exactly what Charlie Kirk could do. IQ off the charts. Emotional IQ off the charts. He respected everyone, even those he disagreed with. I think we lost a future President…he was that good.
God bless the Kirk family and I’m certain Kirk is going straight to heaven.
I agree, as an Australian who followed him for over a decade I am devastated, the tears keep coming…his future had no bounds. RIP
RIP Charlie Kirk. Your candle burned out long before your legend ever will.
“I am told that as a state representative this is the moment where I’m supposed to express my heartfelt condolences and then stand in solidarity with those on the other side of the aisle as we condemn political violence and stand unified as one people.
But we aren’t “one people” are we?
The truth is we haven’t been for some time now, and there is really no point in pretending anymore, if there ever was.
We are two very different peoples. We may occupy the same piece of geography, but that is where the similarities seem to abruptly end.
I convinced myself for a long time that whenever the left called me a racist, a bigot, a sexist, a fascist, a “threat to democracy” for even the most innocent of disagreements, that it was simply hyperbolic rhetoric done for effect.
And now the “effect” is a widow and two orphaned children, because the left couldn’t bear the thought of a peaceful man debating them and winning.
I don’t think they realize it yet, but murdering Charlie is going to be remembered as the day where we finally woke up to what this fight really is.
It’s not a civil dispute among fellow countrymen. It’s a war between diametrically opposed worldviews which cannot peacefully coexist with one another. One side will win, and one side will lose.
Charlie tried to win that fight through argumentation, through discussion, through peaceful resolution of differences.
And the other side murdered him.
Not because he was “extreme” or “inciting violence” or any other hyperbolic slur they hurled at him. They murdered him because he was effective. Because he was unafraid. Because he inspired others and made them feel like they had a voice, that they were not alone. And he did it at the very institutions which have fomented so much hatred toward conservatives.
I don’t want to “stand in solidarity” with the other side of the aisle. I want to defeat you. I want to defeat the godless ideology that kills babies in the womb, sterilizes confused children, turns our cities into cesspools of degeneracy and lawlessness…and that murdered Charlie Kirk.
Social media is aflame right now with leftist celebration of Charlie’s death.
I wonder if any among them understand what has just happened. If there is a Yamamoto somewhere in their midst warning, that all they have done is awoken a sleeping giant.
I doubt it. I think they gave up such introspection and self-awareness long ago.
I don’t know exactly what will happen next. I just know that it won’t be the same as what has happened in the past.
There will be thoughts and prayers…Charlie would have wanted prayers. Not for himself but for those left behind and for the country that he loved.
But then there will be a reckoning.
My Christian faith requires me to love my enemies and pray for those who curse me. It does not require me to stand idly by in the midst of savagery and barbarism…quite the opposite.
So every time I feel tired, every time I feel discouraged or overwhelmed, I am going to watch the video of a good man being murdered in Utah…I will force myself to watch it…and then I will return to the work of destroying the evil ideology responsible for that and so much more.
Rest with God Charlie, your fight is over.
Ours is just beginning.”
100 % with you the other side is HATE
Well said.
One senses we are at an “he who has eyes to see and ears to hear” moment in our civilization. This not a political battle, it is a spiritual one. Those who take up the fight better have the right weapons. Charlie showed the way and his strength came from leading people to the higher ground.
Well said
A Constitutional Republic is not compatible with Marxism or Jihadism. The Left is waging war in order to capture and indoctrinate our youth to become good little proletariat antisemites. Charlie was the leader of their opposition. Many in Gen Z, which is becoming more conservative than previous generations, love him. They understand we are fighting for the soul of our nation. They understand they are facing a country where takeover by radical Islam and Communism is imminent. Here we are on the 24th Anniversary of 9/11 when 3,000 innocent American civilians died at the hands of Islamic terrorists and now the city is about to elect a Communist Islamic terrorist sympathizer as their Mayor. It appears NYC has been conquered? Is the rest of the country next? Young people had better wake up and join up with Charlie’s movement, or they will see their women wearing burqas in their lifetime, as happened in Iran when their country was conquered. Please keep them in your prayers. They are devastated at the loss of their Hero, Charlie Kirk, and they don’t have the coping skills we have as adults.
One of the most functional people in our society was taken out by one of the most dysfunctional.
Go Rest High On That Mountain
Your work on Earth is done
God bless you and give peace to your family.
You are incredibly compassionate in your post. My tears join a nation in distress and my prayers are for a family in grief. A precious martyr joins our beloved Jesus Christ today. Many thanks for your thoughtfulness.
Beautiful.
“From now on I’m riding the high country “…. Slim Pickens.
Then out spoke brave Horatius,
The captain of the gate.
To every man upon this earth
Death cometh soon or late;
And how can man die better
Than facing fearful odds,
For the ashes of his fathers,
And the temples of his gods,
And for the tender mother
Who dandled him to rest,
And for the wife who nurses
His baby at her brest?
—— Thomas Babington Macaulay
“An ideology that cannot be defended by means of evidence and deductive logic, will inevitably be enforced by violence.”
“You shall know them by their habit: they first redefine words as violence, so that they may justify the use of violence against words.”
above excerpts from today’s The Ethical Skeptic on today’s events. He also squarely calls out Wikipedia which allowed the demonization of Charlie Kirk on its site.

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon them.
May they rest in peace. Amen.
Thank you for all the good you did for others…..may our Heavenly Father bless you for all of eternity. Godspeed, Charlie!
Some interesting comments from Redacted News:
(Apparently, Kirk was wearing body armor.)
He’s right.
the shooter of Charlie Kirk is now in custody!
Amen
This was such a beautiful prayer, Sundance. It truly touched my heart. Thank you
How Great Thou Art
Overwhleming grief.. grief for Charlie and his family.. grief for those who had to witness the horror in person… and grief for our nation. This is the left’s ultimate version of “by any means necessary”. So many emotions that listing them would dull their meaning and impact. Largely grief, but also outrage
Are alphabet agencies in our country, behind this? Don’t know. My theory is that this was professional. No fault of the FBI. I finally trust them. Foreign agents? I have no clue. State actors? I don’t know. But some bad actors and countries would love to start a civil war in the US. And then Russia and China can have their way with us. This will not happen. They underestimate the will and intelligence of the American people. The administration and POTUS will get to the bottom of this.
There were surely security cameras in the building where the sniper gained roof access. Also the doors to the roof were surely locked and required badge access. We will know how deep the plot goes if they tell us the security cameras were off or the video files are gone. Then we can be certain the IC was involved just as we can now assume they were in Butler. The FBI didn’t dare power wash the crime scene within minutes as they did in Butler.
I have watered down this post from what it started as, because I realize I am enraged.
So, I will just say that they started shooting at us last year in Butler, PA.
They are at war with us, and they are shooting at us.
A response is REQUIRED.
When the Hyenas attack the den and kill a cub, the Lion MUST ATTACK.
Rest in peace American hero!
Lets give the islamo-left everything they give us…..
It is time to stop coddling murderers of every stripe. If it means putting more judges on the bench with fewer PdD’s of one stripe or another, so be it. If it means putting judges on the bench who care about their citizens, towns, counties, states and nation, so be it. Had the US a strong application of Lex Talionis for the last 40 years Charlie Kirk and so many others would be alive today
What is a “PdD”?
Amen
What will happen to Turning Point USA now?
That depends on those Turning Point USA members.
Will they honor Charlie Kirk’s legacy by picking up their own crosses in order to follow in his path and continue the work that he started?
I too have wondered. I expect, and hope, that those who have filled in for Charlie when he is touring campuses will continue.
Ephesians 6:12
Indeed.
The last time I had cried was when my dad passed away after a fall last September. I cried today. It’s so sad and infuriating at the same time. The only comfort right now is in knowing Charlie’s family is strong in their Christian faith which will see them through this agonizing time.
in combat snipers are a necessity of war.
for political assassinations, snipers are considered cowards, scum of the earth.
this was a political assassination, but it just may led to an act of war that is MORE palpable to THE PEOPLE than ever before.
by accounts I have read, Charlie was responding to questions related to increase in gun violence, domestic terrorism, and replying to insinuations that gun laws more restrictive could be solution to the growing violence.
it was at that moment the shooter assassinated him.
I DO NOT BELIEVE IN COINCIDENCES.
the corruptors have one single goal…it is to overlord and spare you with zero ability to push back when they decide to reform you and control you. The excess in gun violence, assassinations and domestic terrorism may not necessarily be a direct element of the strategy to strip you of your natural rights to arm and defend yourself, but it will certainly be a flash point for main stream maniacs to do the work to influence minds and hearts into more restrictive gun laws.
To counter this, we must all remain solemn and consider the very facts and points that Charlie made often about 2A. that they are not open to prohibition, or regulation. That the one thing that really allows us all to truly have power is our voice…and what defends that voice is a weapon of your own choosing should it come to that.
self preservation isn’t just logical, it’s self revealing. No one should feel pressure to acquiesce to some fantasy that disarming a law abiding citizenry is going to bring about less violence and gun crime.
this assassination proves that to be true.
I really truly hate this time line, but there is a reason why I was born in it and I happen to believe it was not to become a coward.
God Bless America
Amen. Rest in peace. Bask in the glory of being with your Lord and Savior. Continue to do His good work.
