15:5 After these things I looked, and behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened
A temple of truth and righteousness, here online, of which there are many priests and priestesses
Charlie Kirk would have been president. His friends knew it. His admirers knew it. And his enemies knew it.
This universal confidence in Charlie’s future began with his countless political accomplishments. At 18, he founded Turning Point USA, which went on to become the most important cultural organization on the American Right. By 22, he was addressing the Republican National Convention. Three years later, he founded Turning Point Action, which led the get-out-the-vote efforts that delivered the first Republican popular vote victory in twenty years. In his spare time, Charlie published five books, hosted a national talk show, married a lovely wife, and fathered two beautiful children. All of that by 31.
Charlie’s appearance inspired as much confidence as his accomplishments. At a towering six-foot-five slouching, he joked that he had descended from the Nephilim—the giant “fallen ones” of the Old Testament. He might have been born with such a nature, as are we all, but he was not content to remain so. Charlie loved his Savior. The zeal with which he debated politics paled in comparison to the excitement with which he discussed religion. And his religious life bore fruit.
Turning Point launched a Faith division to focus specifically on his followers’ souls. There too, Charlie’s enthusiasm for open debate set the tone, as he invited atheists and even Catholics to take part. But he didn’t need a specific religious conference to convey his faith. Charlie Kirk’s religion bore fruit in everything he did.
Discerning observers believed in Charlie Kirk, not chiefly for his accolades or his appearance, but for his manifest virtue. Charlie’s prudence, the principal virtue in politics, built a generational coalition that helped to transform the American government. His temperance distinguished him as one of the few on the Right to eschew whisky, cigars, and every other delight that might have distracted him from his purpose, for which he had so little time. His sense of justice produced clarity in moral vision and grace for his opponents. His fortitude impelled him to enter the public square without a hint of servile fear.
Charlie’s only fear was the holy sort—awe and wonder, the beginning of wisdom—and his clearest virtues were theological: faith, hope, and charity. We mourn his death, we take up his cause, and we entrust him, as he confidently entrusted himself, to God’s care.
Stephen A. Smith: "I don't care what his political beliefs were... I care about the fact that a man was gunned down in front of 2 of his children... That his wife is a widow... And then I'm going online and I'm seeing people celebrating it! Shame!"
Charlie Kirk supported me when I was left for dead by Antifa. Now, he’s gone.
I went on Nexsmax to share how he impacted my life back when I was unknown. Full interview: https://t.co/1xXmyoo21h
Charlie tried to have conversations with you on the Left, and you killed him for it.
You're killing us in our churches.
You tried to kill our President.
You celebrate Charlie's death.
It's time for good to fight back against evil.

Hey @StephenKing, you are more monstrous than any of the characters you ever came up with.
Charlie was never anything but kind to me and my husband.
We broke bread many times, and he never treated us with anything other than respect.
He even came to our house not too long ago and plot twist, didn’t throw rocks at us.
Write about that sometime, you hack.
The entire Right has to band together. Enough of this in-fighting bullshit. We are up against demonic forces from the pit of Hell. They’re killing us in our churches. They tried to kill our president. They killed Charlie, one of our greatest advocates. Put the personal squabbles aside. Now’s not the time. This is existential. A fight for our own existence and the existence of our country.
I was SWATted 15 times in one year.
I had the bomb squad at my studio twice.
We had to evacuate for 3 hours during our show.
Last year a man in a dress attacked one of my employees at our old location.
We have armed guards.
This is how its been because of the Left
A young "registered Democrat": "All I have to say is the Charlie Kirk sh*oting just proves that... my party is the f*cking worst!"
"I got people celebrating. Hoping that he d*es... Where's the respect? It's disgusting!"

I know some of you want to do the kumbaya thing. You want to say that the celebration of Charlie’s death is only happening on the fringes. I’m sorry but that’s just not true. They jeered and heckled him in CONGRESS yesterday. The left wants us dead. That is the mainstream view. It just is. It’s the truth. They couldn’t be any clearer about it. Stop lying to yourself. Face the facts, and act accordingly.
Once again, a bullet has silenced the most eloquent truth teller of an era. My dear friend Charlie Kirk was our country's relentless and courageous crusader for free speech. We pray for Erika and the children. Charlie is already in paradise with the angels. We ask his prayers for our country.
All of Charlie Kirk's videos are going viral right now. I can't scroll through my feed without seeing videos of him speaking common sense. We truly lost one of the most brilliant minds in American politics. Unafraid to tell the unfiltered truth. Totally fearless. I am PISSED!
