Christians are taught to turn the other cheek. To show grace. To love even their enemies. That foundational belief makes them vulnerable—not because they're weak, but because they don't respond to hate with hate.

So no, Christians are not "fascists," "Neo-Nazis," or “like Hitler.” Those comparisons are not only absurd, they're intentionally dishonest. And yet, they're repeated—because Christianity stands in the way of radical ideology.

The radical left knows this. They understand that to dismantle Western civilization and impose ideological control, they must first weaken the moral and cultural bedrock: Christianity.

That’s why Christian values are pushed out of schools and mocked in popular culture. It’s why speakers like Charlie Kirk, who engages with a smile and arguments rather than outrage, are treated like threats on college campuses.

Watch the footage. His words aren’t hateful. You may disagree with him—I do on some things—but disagreement isn't hate. We've lost sight of that.

So why is he hated? Two reasons: transgender ideology and gun rights.

On the first, Kirk argues from the belief that people should love themselves as they are—created by God—not be pushed into irreversible decisions before they understand the consequences. That’s not hatred. That’s a moral stance about protecting kids. Disagree with it? Fine. But twisting it into “hate” is dishonest.

On guns, his position is simple: without the right to bear arms, citizens are defenseless—against criminals and potentially against tyranny. You can argue that’s an extreme view, but given recent displays of political violence and mob approval of heinous crimes, millions of Americans don’t find it paranoid. They find it prudent.

Take a hard look at recent tragedies. A Ukrainian immigrant, Iryna Zarutska, was stabbed to death on a train—for being white, according to her killer. She thought she had escaped violence by coming to America. She was wrong.

Christian schoolchildren were targeted by a shooter who, according to reports, identified as trans. Where is the condemnation? Where is the media frenzy? Silence.

When you defend or ignore hate because it aligns with your politics, you lose the moral high ground. When you justify violence against “oppressors” without evidence of actual oppression, you're playing with fire.

Because history shows what happens when people are pushed too far. Christians can turn the other cheek—but only while society remains civilized. When war is brought to their doorstep, they’ve fought back. The Crusades weren’t launched out of nowhere.

For now, political resistance is the battlefield. Conservative student groups are multiplying. Red states are redrawing districts to diminish radical influence. Election integrity efforts are growing.

This is still politics by other means.

But if the left keeps treating dissent as hate and cheering violence against their opponents, they are awakening something they don’t understand—and won’t be able to control.

[Jason Whitlock @jasonwhitlock]

Most Americans were unfamiliar with Charlie Kirk and his work, but very familiar with what he represented -- the American Dream. Young, beautiful wife, kids, righteous male authority, faith, optimism. He was real life Ward Cleaver, Jim Anderson, Mike Brady, Cliff Huxtable. Charlie was the antithesis of the antihero father of the last 40 years. America yearns for what Charlie had. That's why his death has triggered so much emotion. Charlie was Making America Feel Fathers Again, feel morality again, feel sacrifice again. We probably haven't felt that way since the 1960s, when JFK, MLK, and RFK (perhaps fraudulently) made us believe men of high character were working on America's problems. Charlie was not a grifter or an opportunist. In the era of influencers and ego, Charlie humbly worked to remove the scales from our eyes on very difficult issues. There are terrible consequences for sacrificing merit in the name of DEI. You can't fix racial discrimination with racial discrimination. You can't replace families with EBT cards and Section 8 housing. Shared values are more important than shared skin color. Charlie organized, hosted, and participated in the uncomfortable conversations most people avoid and/or shut down with name-calling and gatekeeping. Charlie was supposed to be the fruit derived from the necessary chaos of MAGA. And maybe he will be just that if we learn the right lessons from this tragedy. Erika Kirk represents the power of women in the right role. No way Charlie is as courageous and effective without that kind of Holy Spirit-filled woman having his back. I can't quit thinking about Charlie Kirk. What a legacy...

We knew a boy named Charlie, as tall as a tree. A boy Rush Limbaugh inspired to love liberty. There was something different about Charlie, smart as a whip. When his friends went to college, Charlie skipped. Couldn't see it then, but God had a plan. He raised a disciple to travel the fallen land. I'm sorry, sweet Charlie, this world is so sick. You offered your enemies Christ's carrot, they swung sticks. When they couldn't defeat you, they retaliated with a bullet, Satan's last trick. I'm sorry, Charlie, my tears are not true. I weep for the courage to live and die like you.

[Chad Prather @WatchChad]

Good morning.

The reason you feel Charlie’s death so deeply is because grief doesn’t measure itself by proximity. It measures itself by meaning. You didn’t have to know him personally to feel the sting of his absence, because when a voice like his goes silent, something in the atmosphere shifts.

The reason it feels heavier than so many other tragedies is because your spirit recognizes that this is not just about a man, it is about a battle. Scripture says eternity is written on our hearts, and when someone who carried truth with boldness is suddenly gone, eternity aches within us. It’s like our souls know instinctively that the darkness celebrated, and that strikes us at the core.

The reason you can’t shake it is because psychologically, we don’t only attach ourselves to people…we attach ourselves to symbols. Charlie became a symbol of conviction in a time of compromise, courage in a time of fear. And when a symbol is struck down, it rattles something primal and eternal inside us.

That’s why even those who never met him feel it. There is a strange thread pulling at us, and it is not imagined. It is real. We are bound together by shared purpose, by shared longing for truth, by the Spirit of God Himself weaving us into a fabric that cannot be torn apart. This loss pulled at that fabric, and every one of us felt the tug.

So if you’ve wondered why this hits so hard, it’s because your soul knows. This is bigger than news. This is bigger than politics. This is about eternity, about truth, and about the weight of a man whose life carried both.

Love y’all.

[Glenn Beck @glennbeck]

.@conservmillen on Charlie Kirk: If someone had been able to come to him and say, 'this is what your death will accomplish: more people hearing the Gospel, more people waking up,' I know he would have said, 'Yes, Lord, send me.' And not only would he have, but he did."

[🕊️ @lichthauch]

Train your convictions to survive without crowds. The day is coming when every belief you've ever held will be tested by isolation and mockery, not applause and agreement. The principles that survive will be the ones you forged in exile when everyone called you crazy, when no tribe was validating your worldview with nodding heads. Real conviction is not reading books that confirm your biases or joining groups that think like you or finding influencers who say what you already believe. It's the ability to stand alone against everyone you love without your soul breaking, to hold truth that makes you unpopular without becoming bitter, to defend ideas that cost you friends while still praying for those friends. When the mob comes for your throat your beliefs will either save you or betray you and salvation requires building them in the wilderness where only God can hear you scream

[Your Emotional Healing Coach @AfsaRosette]

Lauryn Hill once said, “Everybody wants to know where you’re going to, ’cause they wanna come or so they think , until they find the cost of it. Until they find out what you lost for it.” If that ain’t the truth. Ppl romanticise your becoming, but couldn’t stomach your unbecoming

The USA is REAPING what we sowed.

We kicked God out of schools & families & replaced Him with government & new age progressive (WOKE) ideas.

We allowed money & power to be our god.

Saying I love GOD, family & country somehow became OFFENSIVE to a large segment of people.

On American universities they chanted DEATH TO AMERICA & passed around pamphlets reinforcing it.

Yesterday, MOSTLY PEACEFUL rioters burned our flag in DC & nothing was done to stop them.

I genuinely believe there are too many great, righteous & Godly people for the USA to fall, but there are ACTUAL DEMONS at work trying everyday.

The antidote is STRONG, LOCKED IN FAMILY UNITS PUTTING GOD FIRST.

You don’t WIN SPIRITUAL BATTLES politically.

It starts with you & I LEADING OURSELVES & OUR HOMES.

“For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does.
The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world.
On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.”

-2nd Corinthians 10:3-4

God bless America. 🇺🇸

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

If you have a former coach who you can still call, Snap, Facebook, text, FaceTime, etc. then you had a coach who put you first & created lifelong, caring relationships with players. That isn’t always the case, so consider yourself lucky & keep those relationships close to heart!

[DC_Draino @DC_Draino]

Here is the Democrat election scam broken down:

They create the illusion of support for a candidate by pumping them up in the media apparatus that they fully control.

They use billionaires to launder money to the candidate through straw donors on ActBlue. $3,300 max per person? No problem! Just funnel a billionaire’s $$ through hundreds of thousands of names. Wow look how “popular” they are!

Polling companies work for them so that’s no issue either. Just show the “transformational” candidate with strong numbers based on imaginary data. Now the public believes they “have a chance”.

Then they register 8+ million illegals to vote. They don’t need them to actually cast a ballot and risk getting caught. They just need that name on the voter roll so they can pump out a fake ballot and throw it in a dropbox undetected in a few key swing states.

The Deep State FBI and DOJ won’t even open an investigation so no issue there, and if any judges start getting a little too close to allowing an actual trial showing evidence, that judge gets a very threatening phone call. Then boom, every single case is dismissed on standing - what great luck for them!

Then when they steal it, they ban anyone on social media calling out their scam, put up barbed wire around the Capitol, use thousands of troops to keep the public away, and start new wars across the globe for years on end.

We no longer live in a free country.

We live under a communist regime masquerading as a Constitutional Republic.

Trump is their greatest threat and they just tried to put a bullet in his head.

Trump is an incredible politician and leader, no matter what you think of him.

We’ll never know how bad things were during his first term, and how well he hid it beneath his signature lighthearted, self-parodying demeanor.

But even a man of his great skill cannot hide that less than 72 hours ago, he came one inch from dying. And he never would have seen it coming.

Trump has stood before countless roaring crowds as a public figure and then as President. The last crowd he stood before had his assassin waiting.

So, this crowd tonight would naturally be different. As I imagine all future crowds will be for him, as well.

A man so obviously impacted by the reality of his own mortality is not a psychopath. He’s as human as the rest of us.

And yet tonight he walked out, pumped his fist, and did his best to say with his presence, “I’m OK. We’re OK.”

I think every man would like to believe he could do this, but I don’t think they could. This isn’t like fist fighting a bear. A bear represents obvious danger. You can see it with your eyes. By contrast, this is walking into invisible danger. That takes courage.

Courage is not acting righteously in the absence of fear. It’s acting righteously despite it.

Did Trump know this is where his road would lead when he ran for office in 2016? Maybe conceptually. But concept never matches reality.

Now he’s faced it, and faced it with courage. The storm has come, and passed. And God willing it’s prepared him for future storms ahead.

By definition now, 2024 can no longer be like 2016 or 2020. We’re in uncharted territory.

Pray for him. Pray for us. Pray for his speech on Thursday as he prepares to take a waiting nation, and world, forward.

May he continue to do so with courage.

[Andrew Klavan @andrewklavan]

I've said nothing about the attempt to murder @realDonaldTrump because this picture says everything better than I can say it. Our government has imprisoned its political opponents and attempted to silence dissent. They've closed our houses of worship and preached fear and obedience. They've denigrated masculinity and femininity and traditional marriage and tried to elevate abnormalities by peddling graphic porn to middle schoolers. They believe killing a baby in the womb is a right, and sexually butchering the bodies of children is health care. They've opened our borders in defiance of the rule of law, weakened our security, betrayed our allies and coddled our enemies. They've demonized half of us for defending the rights and systems our forefathers died for.
I defy them.
This is a picture of my president.

[Ted Nugent @TedNugent]

Dear Heavenly Father,
Giver of Life, we bow our heads in prayer as we entrust the United States of America to your loving care. You are the rock on which this nation was founded. You alone are the true source of our cherished rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Reclaim this land for your glory and dwell among your people.
Send Your Spirit to touch the hearts of our nation’s leaders. Open their minds to the great worth of human life and the responsibilities that accompany human freedom. Remind Your people that true freedom can exist when we cast aside hate and find our commonalities rather than shame one another over our differences.
Bless You for your divine intervention and protection yesterday when those who wish to destroy our country failed and we are humbled by Your power and mercy.
We lift our country up before You asking to restore righteousness and integrity. In Jesus name we pray, Amen
