IOW, now he is going to use this as a witch hunt against any and all, again, without any evidence.


Oh ok so they are looking for an illegal to handcuff and put on camera. Glad Trump made that clear for us.

I’m missing this….how is he fueling this theory?


People expect competency from the FBI so when all the sudden they release two "suspects" they mistakenly arrested, it makes people assume a cover up.


Got it. I didn’t know you meant inadvertently.

The American project has been an incredible success. We forget that while we are the "united" states we have very different values and customs depending on the part of the country you live in.

We should resist drawing conclusions whenever a single assassin kills someone else. 1 person cannot define 300 millions people.

In a rich country with deep income inequality and other challenges, we will unfortunately have these kind of regrettable events.

If you pick 99 random Americans on the street 98 of them will not act like that piece of sh**t killer. The vast majority of us are just worried about our jobs, debt, wives/GFs/bfs/APs, baseball, football etc.


+ 1000000

We must all stop letting the awful GOP and Dem Parties divide us. Your fellow American citizens are not your enemies. Your enemies are the financial backers of our two major parties. Wake the eff up people!!!!


+10000. And the rich people backing both parties are the same. They are all extremely rich. They all don't give a f**k about you.

Trump and Republicans couldn’t mourn or comment on the death of a police offer killed in the line of duty defending a federal facility (CDC) a few weeks ago…..couldn’t send one person down form DC to attend the funeral and witness his very young daughter accept the flag from the ceremony…..but now they are all outraged over a political attack. Pretty selective, huh?

He is very popular with teenage boys, I would go as far to say that is his main demographic.


My younger teen (14) son hadn't heard of Kirk before today. I'm curious if you ask a teen boy, what about Kirk appealed to them. I'm asking genuinely, I would really like to understand.


He didn’t hate teen boys for their identities. That’s it. I don’t even think a lot of his fans necessarily agreed with his politics. They were just so desperate for some political/media figure that didn’t hate them for who they are.


Oh no. Teen boys absolutely agree with his politics. Mine and their friends are prime examples


Some, yes. But he had a lot of teen boy fans that didn’t agree with his politics but just liked him, because he was civil and also didn’t hate teen boys for being teen boys.


He was a lot of things but that’s not how most people would describe him. Gleefully provocative - a kind of happy warrior… that’s what teen boys like - he looked like had so much fun trolling and teasing his opponents…


This narrative is so odd. He looked so tense all the time. Even when he spoke to a conservative he’d grimace.


He did not look great debating the Cambridge students.

Projection? I mean, I had never even thought about "funders." Seems like a very specific accusation and so soon for a man whose ex "fell" down a flight of stairs...

My husband is former military (no specialized training with guns) and said 200 yards would not be a difficult shot at all.

In case DCUM Dems still believe in the NYT their editorial board just released: “America Mourns Charlie Kirk” with a photo of the White House flag at half-mast.

I don’t subscribe any longer but saw it on IG, and refuse to link it here since they can’t be bothered to gather an opinion on the masses of dead schoolchildren.

Agree: they are truly miserable humans. To them, know this truth:

You cannot silence an opinion by ending a life; you only prove its weight.

I feel so bad for his children

Disagree with most everything he had to say but violence is NEVER the answer. I am really saddened by this.

You have literally zero clue or idea about who did this. It could have been the husband of someone he was having an affair with for all you know.

Or how about the political assassination of the Minnesota state politicians this summer? Where was the outrage then, conservatives? Oh, and given all this teeth gnashing on the right, I'm still waiting for what your proposed solution to gun violence is other than thoughts and prayers. I'd be happy to support the Charlie Kirk Gun Control Act.
