Conservative activist Charlie Kirk is dead. A coward with a rifle gunned him down at Utah Valley University while Kirk was speaking to students. The shooter fired one deadly shot from a rooftop before running away like the terrorist he is.
This was not some random act of violence. Law enforcement officials are calling it a targeted political assassination. The killer wore an American flag shirt while committing this evil act, mocking everything our nation stands for. He planned this attack and executed it with cold precision.
The radical left has blood on their hands again. They have spent years demonizing patriots like Charlie Kirk, calling them threats to democracy. Their hateful rhetoric creates killers who think murdering conservatives is justified. This is the inevitable result of their dangerous propaganda.
Where was the security that should have protected Kirk? How did an armed assassin get onto a college campus and climb onto a rooftop undetected? These are basic security failures that cost a good man his life. Someone needs to be held accountable for this disaster.
The FBI is offering a hundred thousand dollar reward for information about the shooter. They have video footage and physical evidence including footprints and palm prints. Governor Spencer Cox promises to seek the death penalty when they catch this murderer. Justice demands nothing less.
This assassination follows two attempts on President Trump’s life. The pattern is clear as day. The left cannot win with ideas so they resort to bullets. They hate our movement because we represent everything they want to destroy about America.
Charlie Kirk spent his life fighting for conservative values and free speech. He believed in America and taught young people to love their country. Now he is a martyr for the cause of freedom, killed by the very forces he warned us about.
We cannot let the left win through violence and intimidation. Every patriot must stand up and fight back through legal means. We must vote, donate, and organize like our republic depends on it. Because after what happened to Charlie Kirk, we know it does.
