I am told that as a state representative this is the moment where I'm supposed to express my heartfelt condolences and then stand in solidarity with those on the other side of the aisle as we condemn political violence and stand unified as one people.
But we aren't "one people" are we?
The truth is we haven't been for some time now, and there is really no point in pretending anymore, if there ever was.
We are two very different peoples. We may occupy the same piece of geography, but that is where the similarities seem to abruptly end.
I convinced myself for a long time that whenever the left called me a racist, a bigot, a sexist, a fascist, a "threat to democracy" for even the most innocent of disagreements, that it was simply hyperbolic rhetoric done for effect.
And now the "effect" is a widow and two orphaned children, because the left couldn’t bear the thought of a peaceful man debating them and winning.
I don’t think they realize it yet, but murdering Charlie is going to be remembered as the day where we finally woke up to what this fight really is.
It’s not a civil dispute among fellow countrymen. It’s a war between diametrically opposed worldviews which cannot peacefully coexist with one another. One side will win, and one side will lose.
Charlie tried to win that fight through argumentation, through discussion, through peaceful resolution of differences.
And the other side murdered him.
Not because he was “extreme” or “inciting violence” or any other hyperbolic slur they hurled at him. They murdered him because he was effective. Because he was unafraid. Because he inspired others and made them feel like they had a voice, that they were not alone. And he did it at the very institutions which have fomented so much hatred toward conservatives.
I don’t want to “stand in solidarity” with the other side of the aisle. I want to defeat you. I want to defeat the godless ideology that kills babies in the womb, sterilizes confused children, turns our cities into cesspools of degeneracy and lawlessness…and that murdered Charlie Kirk.
Social media is aflame right now with leftist celebration of Charlie’s death.
I wonder if any among them understand what has just happened. If there is a Yamamoto somewhere in their midst warning, that all they have done is awoken a sleeping giant.
I doubt it. I think they gave up such introspection and self-awareness long ago.
I don’t know exactly what will happen next. I just know that it won’t be the same as what has happened in the past.
There will be thoughts and prayers…Charlie would have wanted prayers. Not for himself but for those left behind and for the country that he loved.
But then there will be a reckoning.
My Christian faith requires me to love my enemies and pray for those who curse me. It does not require me to stand idly by in the midst of savagery and barbarism...quite the opposite.
So every time I feel tired, every time I feel discouraged or overwhelmed, I am going to watch the video of a good man being murdered in Utah…I will force myself to watch it…and then I will return to the work of destroying the evil ideology responsible for that and so much more.
Rest with God Charlie, your fight is over.
Ours is just beginning.
Justin Baldini isn't Blake Lively first victim.
He's just the 1st to really fight back.
Remember, she admitted to poisoning another cast against Penn Badgley.
🚨 Ryan Reynolds & Blake Lively pressured Justin Baldoni to read a statement they drafted, forcing him to take the blame for everything amid backlash over a growing online narrative accusing Blake of mean girl behavior and insensitivity toward domestic violence.
What started as mean girl accusations has now escalated to people having a visceral reaction, calling them crazy and psychos. And honestly, given their antics, it’s not far-fetched or hyperbolic.
This was a calculated PR move to deflect negative attention away from Blake.
The proposed statement, dated August 12, 2024, is provided and discussed below ⬇️

I do not understand why Blake Lively submitted that amendment and put she feared for her life going to SNL while her stank husband made fun of the whole lawsuit. In my eyes, Justin Baldoni is becoming $400 mil richer the more she opens her mouth
You know what would be the icing on the cake? When Justin Baldoni wins his lawsuit against Blake Lively, he should remake It Ends With Us—and cast Scarlett Johansson as Lily Bloom.
Those who know, know. 🤔🤨👀
I will NEVER pay to watch or stream anything Ryan Reynolds or Blake Lively are casted in AGAIN. These narcissists are rich & famous because of us! They’re time in the limelight should be OVER. #believeallvictims
The fuck???
Like is she actually insane? I say this with respect for the insane community
“He took over a film he had the rights for, was directing and starring in!! That bastard!!!!1”
#BlakeLively#JustinBaldoni
Just want to make it VERY CLEAR to you Blake Lively that I am calling you out on social media because I saw your interviews, read your texts, saw the evidence you lied, manipulated and planned to take over this movie.
We're not PAID to support Justin Baldoni, we see you...
A source tells me the leak of Trump's whereabouts is coming from Homeland Security, not USSS. Homeland Security is leaking location details to FBI, and FBI is running the assassins. The entire top leadership of the FBI is desperately trying to figure out how to eliminate Trump, while the loyal elements of US Secret Service are trying to stop it. Homeland Security and US State Dept are full-on treasonous criminal ops at this point. If Homeland can't eliminate Trump soon, State Dept will make sure a war begins with Russia. If they fail, hundreds of top people within FBI and Homeland are going to either flee the country or be criminally prosecuted under a Trump presidency. This is what's at stake.
I listened to @GovTimWalz talk about the Minnesota fireman who lost his life and stated “every hero has the right to come home” and I thought of the 13 lost in 🇦🇫 that are never acknowledged by his team. 🙏 to the family of this firefighter as well as the gold star families 🙏🇺🇸
