A radical leftist student at Oberlin College casually called for political assassinations to continue in the wake of the targeted killing of political activist Charlie Kirk last week, according to an online post she made. “We need to bring back political assassinations,” said Julia Xu in a social media post, where her handle is @bringbacktheguillotine. “I don’t feel bad and I don’t think that everyone deserves the right to free speech. Some people should be afraid to express their opinion in public.” Xu, who grew up in Connecticut, is a second year student at Oberlin College in Ohio majoring in...

Less than a week before a crash-and-grab burglary crew killed an innocent man on the Magnificent Mile last Thursday, one of the men now charged with that murder donned a “peacekeeper” uniform and posed for a one-on-one picture with Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker. While that’s troubling, some law enforcement experts are more concerned that the accused man was able to stand directly next to the state’s most powerful executive despite having outstanding warrants in four states. Just before 5 a.m. on September 11, a group of burglars backed a pickup truck into a display window at the Louis Vuitton store...

During a Senate hearing on Tuesday, Senator Ted Cruz, raised an issue with FBI Director Kash Patel that others, including President Trump, have raised as well. “I want to more broadly encourage you to follow the money,” said Cruz. “The violence we are seeing is not purely organic. There is, I believe, significant money that is spreading dissension, that is spreading violence.” As to whether the George Floyd riots of 2020 were orchestrated, Senator Cruz need look no further than an extraordinary article published by Time magazine in February 2021. The author, Molly Ball, laid out in exquisite detail what...

It has been said the loser contributes as much to the outcome of a battle as the victor. Insofar as the clinical and brutal assassination of Charlie Kirk is concerned, the Republican Party has too many members who are ensuring another historic loss (and progressives another win) in coming elections. Surely there could be Republican consensus. The victim was truly innocent, the killer and the progressive ideology that drove him to murder truly evil. And yet, to the eternal and everlasting shame of many in the Republican Party, we hear calls not of anger or outrage, but of “moderation” and...

Fox News host Greg Gutfeld snapped after Jessica Tarlov mentioned that people didn't pay as much attention to the shooting death of Democratic Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman as the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and characterized Tyler Robinson as coming from a "conservative family." GREG GUTFELD: We don't need more information. We don't need it. What is interesting here is why it's only this happening on the left and not the right? JESSICA TARLOV: What about Melissa Hortman? GREG GUTFELD: Do you want to talk about Melissa Hortman? Did you know her name before it happened? None of us did....

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel could be probed by federal investigators after telling his audience that Charlie Kirk's suspected killer was a MAGA supporter. Federal Communications Commission boss Brendan Carr told conservative podcaster Benny Johnson on Wednesday he was considering an investigation into Kimmel and his network ABC over remarks the host made about suspected shooter Tyler Robinson, 22, in the wake of Kirk's murder. Prosecutors say the suspect - who was charged with killing Kirk at a university event in Orem, Utah - had leftist leanings. 'When you look at the conduct that has taken place by Jimmy Kimmel, it...

WASHINGTON (Politicrux) — When Democrat Representative Seth Moulton on CNN claimed 76% 0f all political violence came from the right and only 4% came from the left collective conservative audiences all over America fell off their chairs. However, his comment did prove one age old expression that there are “lies, lies, damn lies and statistics” and it confirmed, whoever writes and records history has outsized power to shape the political narrative. Nowhere is that power more evident than in how political violence is portrayed in America.

A bomb squad rushed to Turning Point USA's headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona after a 'suspicious bag' was left outside, police said. The mysterious bag was spotted outside the non-profit, founded by Charlie Kirk, on Wednesday morning, a spokesperson with the Phoenix Police Department told the Daily Mail. A bomb robot arrived at the scene, along with a bomb squad official dressed in a Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) suit, a picture taken by Newsmax journalist John Huddy showed. The street outside the building was cleared out of precaution. It is unclear what, if anything, was found inside the bag. 'There is...

The individual then left the scene on foot.” Investigators identified the individual in question as Donald Henson,...

Republicans in Congress are launching an aggressive campaign to punish individuals they accuse of posthumously smearing Charlie Kirk, threatening to bring them before lawmakers, defund entities that protect them and oust them from positions of power. They are also trying to castigate one of their own. On Monday evening, two House Republicans introduced resolutions to censure Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minnesota) and remove her from her congressional committees for comments she made about the conservative influencer during an interview with liberal commentator Mehdi Hasan. During the interview, Omar expressed “empathy” for Kirk’s wife and children but also chastised those who “completely...

President Trump has begun a major escalation in his long-running efforts to stifle political opposition in the United States, using the assassination of the right-wing activist Charlie Kirk to make the baseless argument that Democratic organizations and protesters are part of a violent conspiracy against conservative values and the American way of life.

The release states that 22-year-old Penelope Convertino left a voice message at Sen. Blackburn’s office in Nashville on May 30, 2025.

"You've been training your whole life for this, guys." The Antifa subreddit on @Reddit has made a post saying why Charlie Kirk and those like him deserve to be killed. To smear him, they reference a Media Matters @mmfa hit piece and tell their comrades to arm themselves with weapons. The post echoes the Antifa belief that if you speak with a "Nazi," you are also one and should be subject to death,

The Department of Justice has removed a study showing that white supremacist and far-right violence “continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism” in the United States. The study, which was conducted by the National Institute of Justice and hosted on a DOJ website was available there at least until September 12, 2025, according to an archive of the page saved by the Wayback Machine. Daniel Malmer, a PhD student studying online extremism at UNC-Chapel Hill, first noticed the paper was deleted. “The Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs is currently reviewing its websites and...

In response to the assassination of Charlie Kirk on Wednesday, various university faculty and staff have expressed views on Bluesky that appear to support his killing.

LANGUAGE!.................... English professor Abigail Higgs of Morgan State University wrote: “I think...

Teachers, professors, and faculty members fired from their jobs for making nasty comments over Charlie Kirk's death. These teachers are really nasty evil creatures. They have no business teaching anybody. Good thing they've been sacked.

@RedWave_Press JUST IN: The FBI is investigating social media posts by at least seven different accounts that “appeared to indicate foreknowledge of the ass*ssination of Charlie Kirk,” according to the Washington Free Beacon. The Washington Free Beacon: “The posts—one of which referenced the date of Kirk’s ass*ssination, September 10, more than a month before it took place—were all deleted in the days following the killing. Several of the accounts appear to belong to tr*nsg*nder individuals, and at least one of them followed suspect Tyler Robinson's roommate, with whom Robinson was allegedly in a relationship, on TT.”
