I wish to take up Charlie Kirk’s cause and start speaking publicly about the principles he stood for. I want a T shirt saying
“ I am Charlie Kirk “
I am not afraid to speak
Kill me but no my words
The Left has made a big mistake with this one, Link below:
Truth Details | Truth Social
I offered this earlier: DEMS have spawned an “open season” of violence by their support of criminals and crimes for decades.
The biggest killers of our day – Infanticidal DEMS – from The Manchurian Marionette through every DEM in government down to their every-day supporters – who all want babies on the chopping block, whether in utero or ex utero post-birth , who want no to little prosecutions of crimes, who want criminals to be seen as victims and not perpetrators of rapes, assaults, and murders – are all guilty of the violence coming from their side!
The various attempts on President TRUMP and now the successful assassination of Charlie Kirk all come from the atmosphere of DEM VIOLENCE, which has increasingly pervaded America for 50+ years.
Conservatives are not making attempts on the lives of The MAObamas, The Clintons, The Bidens, Nancy Pelosi , and all the others of their disgusting ilk.
The situation described above needs to be emphasized ever more: When you make excuses for the behavior of criminals and do not want to prosecute crime, when in fact you redefine society’s viewpoint that crimes are not really crimes but a legitimate reaction to society’s supposed oppression, when you therefore place criminals free, who should be in jail…
…you DEMOCRATS are therefore fomenting more crime, more violence, and more destruction of our country!
Our billionaire Communist “elite” supports all of this with their money to destroy us both morally and physically!
And I as pointed out earlier, political violence is in the DNA of the Democratic Party.
This is the same organization that used street gangs to control New York politics in the 1850s, that used the KKK to control Southern politics in the 1870s, 1920s, and 1960s, and now uses ANTIFA to control urban politics across the country.
The Democratic Party is the party of mass political violence and political assassins. Nearly all politically-motivated violence in American history has come from and still comes from the Democratic political base, regardless of whether it happens to be the liberal or conservative party at the time the violence is taking place.
Yes, this did NOT happen yesterday. The Democrat (communist) party has been doing this for decades.
OK… So where are RhiNos on all this …
just askin..
Charlie “turned the other cheek” , so they shot him. That is who we’re dealing with.
I am buying the square that the shooter is never caught, and was send by EU/uke to destabilize the USA.
Yuuup!
The video of suspect #2, the rifle is a subsonic Hatsan Vortex .22 break barrel, just as I first thought.
I shoot squirrels in my orchard with one daily. It cant send a slug 200yds on an optimal trajectory.
A 40g 22LR, the most typical weight of ammo in the 22LR. Carries about 65 ft/lbs of energy at 200yds.
This is also the FBI’s threshold for killing power on a human being.
There is A LOT of glass dope in making a 200yd shot with 22LR…talking several feet.
I heard the shot from the Twitter video and it certainly came from a centerfire rifle.
The Hatsan Vortex is a nitrogen piston. Also, almost silent except for the clack of the piston stop.
BTW, the match grade slugs I use are grain weight chosen to be just slightly subsonic to avoid the several MOA error cause by breaking the sound barrier twice.
Agreed. Sounded like a high power rifle.
22 WMR at the very least.
I suspect that the old Bernie Bro at the event screaming “I shot him!” and the old crackpot riding through town with the authentic looking scoped rifle swung openly over his shoulder were both decoys!
CIA
Back to the Sixties.
Like November 22, 1963? The Dems and Gov IC found out just how outrageous they could get in the months that followed, all the way up to today! Be mindful of everything tomorrow!
Charlie was a great man. I’m so sad he only lived to a young 31 years old. If he chose to run for office down the road, he would have been a great Conservative leader. He actually did lead many young folks to vote for PDJT, which I am so grateful for.
But he did more good in that short life span than most do in a 100-year lifetime!
Jesus walked the earth a mere 33 years—and the world was never the same.
Charlie followed in the footsteps of his Savior. As did Peter. And James. And John. And…….
Charlie was going to turn 32 within a few weeks.
Big groan, anniversary dates like birthdays bring on a whole new level of pain. It will be a hard day.
Newsmax reporting that person of interest has been released. Good grief.
Kash himself said that too. The leftist pigs are running circles around the DOJ. This is pathetic. The retribution better be harsh.
I have a feeling that they will not find out who killed Charlie Kirk.
I don’t trust Kash Patel or the rest of the IC.
I firmly believe the person arrested was a distraction to allow the shooter to get away. Probably two or three cars drivers ready Mossad or government agency of some country including America.
Exactly! The guy looked like a Bernie Bro as did the guy at the event screaming that he did it!
Utter bigoted tosh.
Mossad wouldnt do this.
The whole of Israel is in mourning right now for Charlie.
There were messages from Israelis all over my phone asking to pray for Charlie when he was first shot.
And when he was confirmed dead more messages mourning his courageous battle against the Left.
Pray for God’s retribution. We may not get it.
I’ve been deliberately blowing past the video of that Ukrainian girl getting stabbed to death on the train for two days now because I’m literally sick of watching such depravity, but I forced myself to watch the full video from today and I’m angrier than I’ve been in years.
Give no quarter to these pigs.
They claim that our “hate” was the cause of this. I don’t recall any conservatives shooting up children and slashing trans people’s throats on the subway. They’re delusional as always.
Because those things never happened, projection anyone?
I simply don’t have the stomach to watch it. The photo of that poor terrified young woman looking up at the monster about to kill her is more nightmare and grief than I can bear.
Richard Baris, who was friends with Kirk, not only learned of the shooting while on air but also watched one of the videos as confirmation.
In some ways it was harder to watch his reaction than the actual videos of the shooting.
Kash Patel just announced that they released the suspect that was in custody.
Probably best not to shoot his mouth off until they know they have the goods.
The dude they arrested with a break barrel pellet rifle wearing slippers and a white t shirt was not the dude (or dudette).
Agreed about being sure before shooting of your mouth.
Why would this pos have a pellet gun? Flipping weird. Seems like a plan, they should keep this shit at in custody and charge him. Let em sing.
Retractions never look good.
Yep, Kash Patel is incompetent. Trump should give him 48 hours to identify and arrest everyone involved in this targeted hit or he is fired.
He’s not in custody. Person they arrested was carrying a pellet gun, an air rifle. So it’s not the killer.
Sounds to me like whoever was behind this intentionally set up decoys. I bet the real killer is long gone, possibly out of the country. If this was done by the deep state, that murderer can digitally become invisible. No amount of AI tracking and tracing will ever bring them to the light. Sundance spoke about deep state “ghosts” a while ago.
With the FBI involved, the truth will be buried.
The only purpose of the FBI, is to protect the government from the people.
But it sure looks like there were decoys to aid the killer escape, so these leads should be followed. Who do they associate with? Who communicates with them?
I noticed that the barrel looked very thin like a .22.
How about getting a few of the DOGE guys turn loose to run the super surveillance software on especially the FBI and CIA . Their mission is a 50% reduction in the FBI and CIA within a month.
Praying for your safety Sundance
Praying for your safety President Trump.
Praying that Charlie Kirk and his family rejoice in God’s Love.
Or use the tools the j6 committee used.
Exactly!
Just thought that myself a few minutes ago.
Who has the experience and the determination to hunt down this assassin? We need the very best, I am talking about a person who loves America not of the left.
“JUST IN: FBI Director Kash Patel says the person they took into custody for the assassination of Charlie Kirk has been RELEASED.
“The subject in custody has been released after an interrogation by law enforcement. Our investigation continues and we will continue to release information in interest of transparency.”
This is crazy. They arrested one old man, said it wasn’t him, arrested another, and it’s not him.”
I am starting to think that there were patsy/fake shooters in the crowd as a distraction so that the real shooter could escape.
If that’s the case then this was a planned out mission.
Had to be planned. You don’t make shot like that, at that distance, unless you know what you’re doing. Can’t take a chance being seen accessing the roof with a rifle either. Plus, a scoped rifle has to be sighted in at the distance of your target. Either that or the shooter had to be very good at Kentucky Windage.
20 yards? O.K. 200 yards? Not in a million years could an amateur pull this off.
All of this takes training and training takes money.
Bottom line, SOMEBODY PAID FOR THE BULLET. Find out who.
Disagree with one part. Average hunters can make that shot all day long. Reasonable hunting rifle scope and some very basic training. Add in a little range time and 200yds is easy.
Any hunter making that shot all day long isn’t an average shooter with average equipment or training. This was a professional assassination.
Yes absolutely average hunters can make that shot all day long.
Of course it was. The left has completely lost control of young White
Men and many young black and Hispanic men. Few under the age of 60 read progressive lies in newspapers and watch TV news. Almost none under 50 do. And Kirk was a beacon of truth to young men who’ve been subject to vicious hatred from Kindergarten through grad school. Because they are White men.
AND Christian
Your last paragraph is what I think as well.
Marxists are know for their plans.
Typical MO
Civil dialog will not work. Recent reports from Charlotte are that blacks don’t care that the Ukrainian got murdered. Also, black churches, civic groups, etc all preach anti-white messages.
And they carry out that message.
Charlie Kirk unknowingly brought a dialogue to a gun fight.
the bastards.
Apparently they’ve gone through two suspects and still haven’t found the killer
https://x.com/FBIDirectorKash/status/1965928054712316363
Amazing. Simply amazing. CIA much?
A dot connector!
Reason they haven’t found the killer is because thus murder wasn’t some amateur. He was a skilled assassin with plenty of help. The distractor who was arrested and released probably some old radical . The getaway cars and drivers Shooter’s probably in another country by now. Like Israel or an Israel colony like Cyprus or Ukraine. Or hiding out in an Israel consulate
As was the old crackpot riding his bike in town with a scoped pellet rifle swung over his shoulder!
Shocking that the FBI has all this AI crap at their fingertips and can’t find the guy. Makes me think it was an inside job or indeed the CIA.
You keep pushing Israel. Maybe you are the decoy.
Both were decoys!
It looks horrible for the Director of the FBI to come out and say we got our man only to backtrack shortly thereafter. They arrested a man carrying a scoped rifle. I cannot believe any sniper would do that.
Scoped pellet rifle. Fixed it for you. 😎
I just saw that. These threads make it hard to keep up.
With factory permanently attached suppressor.
Good, honestly. The organization itself shouldn’t exist. They’re all criminals. So maybe we can drop the pretense that it’s reformable, or that Patel can reform it.
The Director continues to shrink daily in so many ways. If there were any time when it would be reasonable to say, “active investigation, cannot confirm capture”, this was it. I can’t imagine what the President must truly think of this man and the current Department.
Ka$h is a clown.
Hey hey, ho ho, Kash and Pam have got to go.
I’ll put whatever hopium I have left in me with Ed, Andrew, Tulsi, and of course our VSG President Trump.
Patel is a f-ing idiot. The perp is NOT in custody. What a clown show at DOJ and FBI.
And at the SS.
Not clowns. They’re evil.
No way a pellet gun could have done that much damage.
Kash Patel is distracting us.
We live in a AI surveillance state but they can’t find the suspect?!?
Insert the Curious cat.
I think heads will roll over this.
Hope so.
JB Pritzker says Trump and J6rs are fomenting violence.
This BS has to stop.
JB Pritzker: proving my comparison of people like him to wife beaters.
JB Prickster’s statements are fermenting hatred if not violence.
Can’t wait till that pig squeals his last. Disgusting human.
Printer is busy looking for buffets.
It’s not BS. It is gaslighting at its finest.
“Both parties deprecated war but one of them would make war rather than let the nation survive, and the other would accept war rather than let it perish. And the war came.”
KASH PATEL has released the suspect. Wrong guy, allegedly.
BREAKING: Suspect Taken Into Custody in Charlie Kirk Assassination Has been Released After Interrogation: KASH PATEL | The Gateway Pundit | by Cristina Laila
If this guy was carrying a pellet rifle then it would be obvious to the law enforcement officers that stopped him on scene. Or maybe I’m assuming too much?
They needed a suspect?
Keystone Kop Ka$h.
Given what has happened in Germany and the US over the last two weeks, I pray that Mr. Farage is reviewing his security details with the finest of fine-toothed combs.
Farage is most likely controlled opposition.
This was coordinated assassination. The shooter had help in recon and a getaway car to drive him away. Pure speculation but this is going to get ugly when they find out who is behind this.
they will find some patsy like they tried to do to that guy at the Atlanta Olympics years go (and ruined his life completely in trying to frame him).
I know little about Kirk except he was very focused on young people and actually connected better than anyone I’m aware of on the right. That alone makes him a pretty large threat to the deep-state and uniparty. They have spent decades brainwashing young people from kindergarten through grad school (making them leftist bots basically). Kirk was slowly working to undo all the indoctrination and he was having some success. Gotta nip it in the bud, as barney fife would say.
They will pin this on someone eventually, but I don’t trust these Mo-Fo’s one bit. Trump’s presence here changes nothing for me. This is all WAY bigger than Trump. He will parrot whatever his FBI tells him.
They won’t find out.
The Utah governor mentions that Utah still has the death penalty in place. As I recall it’s a firing squad.
Read my mind …
https://twitter.com/thelastrefuge2/status/1965913350740807986
Exactly, yuck. The Governor, on the other hand, was appropriately outraged and did not mince words. Perfect.
“rank and file” Well he seems “rank” enough, as in stinks actually but betcha he can tell you where the best bagel shop in SLC is located;
I want killers name and pic
This senseless murder was not the work of a lone shooter, it was planned and executed to send a message.
I’m no Charlie Kirk fanboy, but if each one of us do just 1% of what he did all their evil plans will be washed away like dust.
Jason Chaffetz: “When this story is written, I don’t think it was a coincidence that the shot rang out when you got a question about transgender mass shootings. Hopefully I’m wrong. I’ll probably be criticized for jumping to conclusions…”
You need to find the person who asked the question. This is not a coincidence. The shooter was waiting for that question.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/09/heartbreaking-former-rep-jason-chaffetz-who-attended-event/
Full story for context.
Several hours after the event …
No identification of sniper position, no description of subject, no evidential video beyond the horrible shooting itself, no authoritative Law Enforcement statements . . . All I see is a cold (and getting colder) trail.
Kash messed up BIG TIME by jumping the gun, but I see no viable leads or competent local police investigative activity to speak of right now.
WTF?!
Either intentional coverup and Kash is part of it or the deep state runs that deep. There are plenty of open Marxists in the DOJ.
Did Kash make the call from Vegas?
Thanks Oldersoul.
Presidency nothwistanding, Donald Trump is in a unique position to weigh in on the vicious rhetoric coming from the Democratic Party and its end consequences. He was about 1” away from the same fate Charlie Kirk suffered today.
It’s not just the evil of the Democrats that’s so galling. It’s bad enough. But it’s paired with such preening moral self-righteousness. The shooter likely thought of himself as a patriot American soldier doing the same job as the men who stormed Nazi positions at Normandy.
I wish I knew what the answer was to all this. I’m gonna go to bed and pray for my enemies. Our enemies. Because Jesus said so. But it’s SO. DAMNED. HARD. Right now.
I’ll be happy to pray for my enemies that God gives them all of the justice that they have coming to them.
I’ll pray for my enemies that they reap what they have sown.
I’ll pray for my enemies that they pray for the mountains to fall down upon them.
I’ll pray for my enemies that they get the opportunity to completely understand the consequences of the Commandment “Thou shalt not murder”.
I’ll pray for my enemies that they understand the concept of weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Speaking of the last days, Jesus said in Matt.24:12, “…And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall grow cold.”
We are there.
(Lord, I don’t want to be there; don’t want to be that. Don’t let me grow cold. It’s tough for me, but not for You!)
Flags have been lowered in the parks and public places in this city.
Maybe the FBI should find out if CNN had. special photographer at this event.
the Utah governor spoke eloquently, without notes, about patriotism, the spirit of 1776, and Charlie Kirk.
Yes he did. I urge anyone who has not seen his press conference to watch it.
https://x.com/KarluskaP/status/1965856421087687134
Something definitely worth listening to/watching, it was done
while awaiting news if Kirk survived.
It actually turned into Joe and EM Burlingame doing the podcast.
Really gets interesting the further into the podcast.

I am not going to be a hypocrite and pretend that I was a
Charlie Kirk fan..my support for him as a political commentator
ended with his DiSantimonious stunt in AZ years ago. 🤷♀️
That said, I support anyone who exercises their free speech as
an American citizen. 🇺🇸 even if something like this had happened
to Biden or Harris…I would recognize it as …an attack on 🇺🇸 America.
🙏May cool heads prevail. Lot of thoughts in podcast worth thinking about.
This is a lot bigger than just some crazy Democrat -liberal nut jobs.
Well, at least they did that… usually get nada from those lunatics…
don’t kid yourself
they only did it because they
received massive complaints
it was everywhere online
He has been fired
Isnt that NY Slimes had Maureen Dowd his sister?
Katy Tur also made horrible remarks
https://au.news.yahoo.com/matthew-dowd-fired-msnbc-charlie-020835082.html
Just saw that 2nd suspect was released.
https://citizenfreepress.com/
You know who’s nervous right now… the 50-100 people who left legit death threats on Kirk’s phone over the past 6 months…
Charlie Kirk accomplished more for the benefit of Americans in his very short life than all the career politicians you could name.
He was out there fighting the good fight while Congress is overrun with corrupt self serving, self aggrandizing individuals who do not even perform the bare minimum required of them, to make PDJTs EOs into law and vote to confirm the nominees of the President, especially to the judiciary, to counter the political activism coming from the bench.
Frankly, I detest the members of Congress who won’t even pray for Charlie Kirk, an American hero and free speech advocate and his young family.
This!
This is what’s making my BS detector go haywire. Did you ever see anywhere when the first suspects aprehended in a murder at this level, were questioned and released within hours? Hell, you certainly must have had enough to hold them overnight! A man is dead. Why the urgency to release the first suspects? That’s why the talk has shifted to decoys and a real conspiracy.
I just can not understand how Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, and the state and local police have not yet caught the killer as everyone here would have well by now.
Maybe it’s not quite as easy as it looks to Warriors on the internet.
The FBI gets called in after the fact. The local law enforcement and private security if they were used. You cannot expect the Feds to act like instant coffee and get their guy.
Well you better start going on offense GOP, the Trump administration and those with the will, grit and desire. We can talk about the mamby, pamby left and pretend like Conservatives are salt of the earth defender’s of all things Red, White and Blue. But at this juncture the revolutionary left is kicking our ass.
They won’t. Another enemy of the state eliminated. They’ve got a war with Russia to start.
I strongly suggest everyone read up on COINTELPRO. Basically the FBI tracks and targets and disrupts any organized movements that challenge their deep state’s stability. Left and right. They’re the strings for the puppet masters.

Who is the subject?
Scott Jennings
@ScottJenningsKY
Charlie Kirk was an unapologetic advocate for his Christian faith, his values, his country – and Western Civilization.
Cont. And video linked…
It’s ignorance in spades, Trump is ignorant to the risk as well. He not only had the DNC try to jail him for the rest of his life, they tried to have him assassinated twice, missed by the grace of God. Steve Scalise, Kavanaugh, trans violence and you’d think Charlie would have been wise to the risks. Better wake up and realize the enemy in your midst. Pretending like this is just about politics. It’s life and death.
There is one and only one group stoking this violence against Conservatives and that is the MSM.
Who stokes the MSM?
Big pharma pays for 79% of their advertising so they are the real owners of the mainstream media.
Most countries don’t allow pharma to advertise on radio and TV, like we stopped allowing tobacco companies to do years ago.
AND THE DEMOCRAT SCUM
Very true.
I understand the MAGA Waters can be murky… but Kirk and Co.’s reaching out to the youts via Turning Point USA events, etc. did have a positive impact on 2024…
“Charlie Kirk’s influence, reach helped propel Donald Trump into office
Trump attended many of Kirk’s Turning Point USA events aimed at younger voters.”
https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/charlie-kirks-influence-reach-helped-propel-trump-office/story?id=125452473
[…]
Though Kirk was not a White House staffer, he was a constant and visible presence at the White House, she reported. Kirk, who was known as the “Trump whisperer,” was deeply involved in vetting top positions for the administration since the election and was in constant communication with top advisers and the president himself.
Trump had attended many events hosted by Kirk’s conservative advocacy group, “Turning Point USA,” which helped to promote the president, especially with high school and college-age voters. The group and Kirk had a huge following with conservatives, particularly men, and he was able to parlay that popularity into support for Trump’s campaign.
[…]
During the 2024 election, Turning Point helped Trump with get-out-the-vote operations in battleground states targeting smaller groups of engaged voters. He also tried to influence the outcome of the vote by impelling Nebraska to implement a winner-take-all electoral system and encouraging Republican leaders to make that change.
etc. etc.
