Hundreds of Australians have attended a candlelight vigil to honour US conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, whose assassination at a Utah university sent shockwaves around the world. Turning Point Australia, an offshoot of Mr Kirk’s Turning Point group, organised the sunset vigil in Sydney’s Hyde Park on Friday, attended by up to 1000 people. The Aussie organisation’s director told the Sydney Morning Herald of plans to bring Mr Kirk to Australia prior to his assassination. Turning Point Australia director Joel Jammal told the crowd the day Mr Kirk was “a great man” who inspired him. “There will not be another man...

Former Gawker editor Elizabeth Spiers unloaded in the Nation what may be the most caustic postmortem on Charlie Kirk found anywhere in media so far — comparing the slain Turning Point founder to Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbles and labeling Kirk “an unrepentant racist, transphobe, homophobe, and misogynist.” The latter name calling appeared in the lead paragraph alone of the 1000-word essay under the headline: “Charlie Kirk’s Legacy Deserves No Mourning.” Quoting gracious comments by California Gov. Gavin Newsom about the slain father of two, Spiers wrote, “There is no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign, and refusing to...

Aerial footage shows a crowd of tens of thousands of people marching through central London on Saturday in a protest organised by the far-right activist Tommy Robinson.

A Texas hospital director stashed hidden cameras in bathrooms to spy on patients and staff, police said. Robert Shrader, 41, was fired from his role at Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Medical Center following his arrest. The former hospital boss is also the subject of an $100 million class action lawsuit filed by thousands of alleged victims. Investigators said the scheme was busted when maintenance workers found a camera in a bathroom on August 22. The workers then called the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, FOX 26 reported. The camera was traced back to Shrader through its memory card which contained a...

A transgender comic book writer had their newly released project completely canceled by DC Comics after posts on BlueSky surfaced of them mocking the death of conservative icon Charlie Kirk. Gretchen Felker-Martin, who is transgender and uses "she/her" pronouns, had a major Batman spinoff called "Red Hood" canned despite having a significant launch just this Wednesday. Additionally, it was expected to see future releases all the way into late 2026. Now, Felker-Martin's pronouns can be changed to FA/FO. “At DC Comics, we place the highest value on our creators and community and affirm the right to peaceful, individual expression of...

A memorial service for Charlie Kirk has been scheduled for next week at the home of the Arizona Cardinals, with President Donald Trump set to attend. Turning Point USA, his organization, announced that his supporters will be able to pay their final respects on Sunday September 21 inside State Farm Stadium. In a post to their social media pages, they invited his supporters to join in 'celebrating the remarkable life and enduring legacy' of the conservative activist. The stadium, located in Glendale, has a fixed seating capacity of 63,400 which can be expanded to as much as 73,000 for larger...

The assassination of conservative pundit Charlie Kirk marks the latest example of a GROWING WAVE of murders and other shootings committed by transgender people and others advocating for their rights. Audrey Hale, a transgender shooter who murdered six people at Nashville’s Convent School in March 2023, raged about hating America, being miserable while being raised as a girl and wanting to “kill all the white kids.” “I only wore some nice girl clothes as a cover-up from the truth, which I denied myself all these years. And I hated all of it,” Hale wrote in diary entries released following the...

Last year, leftist activists repeatedly urged Justice Sonia Sotomayor to retire, hoping Biden could appoint a younger liberal replacement. In addition to her age, health concerns were also a factor. Last year, we learned that Sotomayor travels with a medic due to her Type 1 diabetes, an extraordinary precaution that underscores the seriousness of her condition. Records showed she's required medical assistance during travel and regularly carries medical supplies. While she's managed her diabetes since childhood, at her age the physical and emotional toll of serving on a court where she's perpetually outvoted must weigh heavily. Once again, Sotomayor expressed...

A London march organized by far-right activist Tommy Robinson drew more than 100,000 people and became unruly on Saturday as a small group of his supporters clashed with police officers who were separating them from counter-protesters. Several officers were punched, kicked and struck by bottles tossed by people at the fringes of the "Unite the Kingdom" rally, Metropolitan Police said. Reinforcements with helmets and riot shields were deployed to support the 1,000-plus officers on duty. At least nine people were arrested, but police indicated that many other offenders had been identified and would be held accountable. Police estimated that Robinson...

i/o @avidseries Left-leaning outlet Axios reports that six sources familiar with the investigation of Tyler Robinson told it that Robinson had a romantic relationship with a transgender roommate. This follows similar reporting from right-leaning media earlier today.

Unless you live under a rock, you're aware that pickleball has become the fastest-growing sport in America, attracting tens of millions of players, especially geezers like me. Sure, injuries are common, if not required. But there are real benefits. Let's explore the madness. Once you reach a certain age, people you know start checking out faster than at the front desk at a Ramada Inn. It colors your perspective. Example: while waiting for our turn at the pickleball court (aka the opium den), the geezers (one guy’s 88!) trade the usual banter. But sometimes it veers dark: Like “So… what’s...

Freely Ashley @TheFreelyAshley "I'm surprised you aren't getting rid of more people. Don't let it stop with him." "Get rid of the whole family." Woman calls for more assassinations, including executing Charlie Kirk's entire family. I'm really horrified by what I'm seeing. Honestly. These people are sick in the head.

The parents of Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old who admitted to assassinating Charlie Kirk, once encouraged their son’s intense interest in firearms by gifting him a “build your own gun” kit for Christmas. Robinson’s fascination with guns was well-documented by his family, who frequently posted photos of their visits to shooting ranges. Images show Robinson as a teenager proudly holding high-powered weapons, including an M2 Browning .50 caliber machine gun, a scoped rifle, and even a bazooka. His mother, Amber Robinson, and his younger siblings appeared to embrace this lifestyle, as evidenced by pictures showing smiling faces at the range, even...

KanekoaTheGreat @KanekoaTheGreat NEW: In December 2024, Lance Twiggs—the transgender roommate of Charlie Kirk’s shooter—changed his Steam name from “Lance” to “Luna.” The account matches his TikTok username and links to a Reddit profile active in transgender forums discussing hormones and transitioning.

I want to front load this post by making something abundantly clear. I am not complaining about my channel nor am I feeling sorry for myself. If you leave this post with that impression, that is something that you have projected onto me. There is a broader point that I am trying to make with this post. This is a graph showing my daily subscriber count. Yesterday, I posted a video with some thoughts on the political assassination of Charlie Kirk. On the graph, you can see that the result (which I kind of expected) was a mass exodus of...

Los Angeles Dodgers reliever Blake Treinen paid tribute to conservative activist Charlie Kirk during Friday night’s game against the San Francisco Giants by wearing a hat on the mound that featured Kirk’s name alongside a cross. Treinen, who speaks openly about his faith, came into the Dodgers’ game in the ninth inning, and fans noticed that the pitcher had a message written on his cap.

Democrats so enjoyed forcing Americans to do silly things during COVID, like starving their children of oxygen and letting Grandma die alone, that they leapt right back to their hectoring at the Senate hearing this week with Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Blithely unaware that public health authorities have become objects of seething hatred throughout the land, Democrats -- and a few Republicans -- harangued Kennedy for not trusting "science" and "experts." Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., began the idiot-fest by accusing RFK of prevaricating during his confirmation hearing when he claimed to be "pro-safety and pro-science."...

Here is their full statement: A Message from North Idaho CollegeNorth Idaho College expresses...
