By Mark Haas, Catholic Exchange - The shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk has left a void not only in the political landscape of America but also in the hearts of countless young people he inspired. He was a man driven not by anger or violence, but by an insatiable desire to uncover and proclaim what is true. His death is tragic, and yet, in a mysterious way, it mirrors the story of the One who is Truth itself... Charlie Kirk’s presence was electric. He was a bottle of lightning when it came to debate, quick on his feet and unwilling to back down. Whether on a college campus, behind a microphone, or on a television panel, he had the rare ability to cut through noise and address first principles.

By John Daniel Davidson, The Federalist - In the days since Charlie Kirk’s assassination by a radical Antifa terrorist, a refrain has arisen in the corporate press and the political establishment that we must come together, lower the temperature, tone down the rhetoric, and condemn political violence on both sides. In order to have peace, they say, we have to have unity... But there can be no peace or unity without first telling the truth, and the truth is that both-sidesism, the polite fiction that the American left and right have a problem with political violence, is a damnable lie — and everyone peddling it is a moral coward.

By Elise Winland, CatholicVote - Utah prosecutors on Sept. 16 formally charged 22-year-old Tyler Robinson with aggravated murder in the assassination of Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk... At a Sept. 16 press conference announcing the charges, Utah County Attorney Jeff Gray said his office will also seek the death penalty, citing the severity of the crime... “I do not take this decision lightly, and it is a decision I have made independently as county attorney based solely on the available evidence and circumstances and nature of the crime,” Gray said. “Because we are seeking the death penalty, the defendant will continue to be held without bail in the Utah County Jail.”
