America lost a true patriot this week when Charlie Kirk was gunned down by a radical assassin at Utah Valley University. The 31-year-old conservative hero was doing what he did best – standing up for our values and debating the left on college campuses. Now he is gone, leaving behind his wife Erika and two young children.
The coward who killed Charlie is 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, who planned this evil attack like the domestic terrorist he is. He climbed onto a campus roof with a rifle and shot Charlie in the neck from 142 yards away while Charlie was talking to students. This was not some random act of violence – this was a targeted assassination of one of our most effective conservative voices.
Charlie Kirk built Turning Point USA into a powerhouse that fought back against the radical left poisoning our colleges. He was not afraid to go into hostile territory and debate the woke mob that controls our universities. The left hated him because he was winning hearts and minds with facts and logic.
This assassination sends a chilling message to every conservative who dares speak up. The radical left cannot win debates, so now they resort to murder to silence us. They want us afraid to speak out about their dangerous agenda that is destroying America.
Tyler Robinson is refusing to cooperate with police, which tells you everything about his cowardly character. Utah Governor Spencer Cox says investigators are still trying to figure out his motive, but we all know why this happened. The left has spent years calling conservatives like Charlie dangerous extremists who deserve whatever happens to them.
President Trump and the entire conservative movement are mourning Charlie’s death and honoring his incredible legacy. RFK Jr. and other leaders delivered emotional tributes at a vigil in Washington DC. Charlie died fighting for the America we all love, and his sacrifice will not be forgotten.
The blood is on the hands of every leftist professor, media figure, and Democrat politician who has demonized conservatives as threats to democracy. They created the hate-filled environment that led to this assassination. Their rhetoric has consequences, and Charlie Kirk paid the ultimate price.
Charlie Kirk was a warrior for freedom who never backed down from a fight. He understood that our republic is under attack from within, and he gave his life defending it. We must honor his memory by continuing the battle he fought so bravely until his final breath.
