For those feeling sorry and protesting Christa Pike’s execution tomorrow, this is what she did 30 years ago.
The picture is Christa Pike at 18.
She lured 19-year-old Colleen Slemmer into the woods because she thought the girl was after her boyfriend. She and that boyfriend then tortured her - beating her, cutting her, carving a pentagram into her chest, slashing her throat as Colleen begged for her life - and Christa smashed her head with a rock. Pike kept a piece of Colleen’s skull and showed it off later.
The 17-year-old boyfriend got life. Pike got death. After 30 years, Tennessee is set to carry it out tomorrow. That’s what she did. That’s why she’s on the list.
Justice finally for Colleen Slemmer tomorrow.
My local McDonald's would cost me $34.96 for 2 Cheeseburger Happy Meals and 2 Quarter Pounder Cheeseburger Meals with Med drinks and fries.
My local Chili's would cost me $35.96 for pretty much the same thing, except I don't get a toy, but I do get crayons and something for the kids to color. I also get free chips and salsa, a free drink, and French fry refills. Plus, I get table service and human interaction.
Hmmm... what would I do for dinner with two young kids and my husband?
Can you imagine having the power to make people lose their minds simply by your existence?
Also, can you imagine giving somebody the power to make you lose your mind simply by their existence?
A lot of yall seriously need to touch grass. At least get off of this app for a while. The doom scrolling has ruined your mind.
September 10, 2025, changed America’s history forever.
One year ago, our founder, our leader, and our friend, Charlie Kirk, was assassinated while doing what he had devoted his life to: standing before young Americans and challenging them to think, to speak, and to have the courage to stand for what they believe.
There are no words that can adequately describe what this past year has been like.
We have had to learn how to carry on without the person who was at the center of everything we do. We have celebrated milestones that Charlie should have been here to celebrate. We have stood on stages where his voice should have been heard. We have watched his children grow without their father there to see it. And we have felt the weight of his absence in ways that never seem to get easier.
For the people who knew and loved Charlie, September 10 will never simply be an anniversary. It is the day our lives were changed forever.
Today, our hearts are especially with Erika, Charlie’s children, the Kirk family, and the countless people who loved him. No organization, movement, or mission can replace what was taken from them. We will never forget the unimaginable loss they continue to carry.
But we also remember Charlie for how he lived.
Charlie’s faith was at the center of who he was. He believed deeply in God and trusted that his life was guided by a meaningful purpose. Charlie’s faith in Christ was his armor, which no assassin could overcome. He believed in life everlasting, and it was this unshakable faith that gave him a courage that was impossible to miss. He was willing to walk into difficult rooms, have uncomfortable conversations, and stand firmly for what he believed because he wanted others to know the hope and truth he had in Jesus. Charlie died a martyr for Christ.
Charlie believed America was worth fighting for, that young people could change the course of a nation, and that speech would only remain free if exercised. Always leading by example, he was fearless in the pursuit of truth—no matter the cost. No one taught this generation how to fight the good fight better than Charlie Kirk.
Turning Point shares those beliefs and will never abandon them. Charlie never gave up, and neither will we. Turning Point will continue to grow and meet milestones that Charlie dreamed of.
Today, we are not focused on the chapter numbers, the headlines, or the accomplishments. Today, we remember an incredible patriot, a husband, a father, and a man whose faith gave him the courage to spend his life serving a purpose he believed was bigger than himself.
We miss him.
We grieve him.
And we will never forget him.
One year later, Turning Point remains committed to carrying forward the work Charlie began.
For Charlie. Always.
Well, I just got the news that my buddy Dolly passed onto the higher and greater side.
Dolly, thank you for all the wonderful things you did for us here on earth.
Your love, your music and you gave so much with your huge huge heart.
There will never ever be another you.
We will remember and cherish every memory and every note you ever played and sang.
Thank you, Lord, for Dolly.
She’s gonna have a blast in heaven singing all her favorite songs with all her family and friends who have gone on before her.
I’ll never forget the first time I met you and I’ll never forget our last conversation. I hold it with love in my heart.
I will always love you,
Reba
