We have to talk about the trans issue and—most recently—the young man arrested for the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
Utah’s Gov. Cox made it clear in his statement: the alleged killer’s roommate, “was a romantic partner, a male transitioning to female.”
It was immediately clear that mainstream media wanted to stay as far away from that part of the story as possible.
That’s exactly what happened with the shooter who killed and injured children at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis
And then again in the horrifying 2023 mass shooting at The Covenant School in Nashville.
It is insanity to argue the transgender identity has nothing to do with these crimes. The pattern is now undeniable.
Of course: It would be false to accuse all transgender persons of being tempted towards any such crime.
But it would be similarly foolish to say, “Pattern? What pattern? I don’t see a pattern. Problem? What problem? I don’t see a problem.”
We have to talk about this.

Decent people were stunned and horrified by the assassination of husband, father, and conservative activist Charlie Kirk. But almost as disturbing was the celebration from so many quarters.
Fellow Americans—including many in “helping professions”—applauded the brutal slaying. And we’re left wondering:
How did it come to this?
Perhaps it shouldn’t be surprising as Judeo-Christianity has ebbed from our national bloodstream. According to Gallup, by 2023, 31 percent of Americans never attend a church. That’s compared to 21 percent of US adults who attend weekly. That’s down from 42 percent in 1970 and from 49 percent in 1955.
Everyone alive worships something. If it’s not a loving and merciful God, it will become the environment. Or money. Or radical politics. And as we saw last week, that doesn’t end well for anyone.

Right now, the phrase “there are no words” has never been more poignant. And yet, we have seen a profligacy of words: some beautiful, some awful, and some words we’d like to hear but haven’t—particularly from those who created the diseased environment of parlance justifying violence.
Like to point to something that’s been particularly true of Charlie in recent years—and that is how much he bathed himself in and promulgated the books, language and life of his Christian faith.
Charlie’s political convictions were shared by many on the right—as he appealed to common sense and natural rights and natural law. But increasing his most resounding message to young men and women was of living a life dedicated to being a better person—a better man, a better woman, a better human being—with respect for and yielded-ness to God.
His dream that we could all be better individuals was a dream we could make our communities better places.
It’s a dream we should all take up.

For years, the Left claimed that cancel culture was merely consequences for bad speech. Now that the free market has applied the same rules to them over their celebrations of political assassination, they’re trying to claim victimhood.
The latest example comes from former Washington Post editor Karen Attiah who got fired this week over her social media posts after Charlie Kirk’s murder. Attiah had modified and misrepresented Kirk’s words in her Bluesky posts in order to make him look like a bigot.
It was journalistic fraud, done to imply that Kirk had it coming. It should not come as a shock that a newspaper would want to part ways with her.
In other words: Welcome to the consequences of your own actions … and welcome to the precedents the Left has set for years for punishing its opponents. If you publicly celebrate or condone a political assassination, don’t be surprised if your employers and clients want to distance themselves.

Last week, NBC News conducted what it described as “rare interviews” — and indeed they were. Rarely has any news organization allowed twelve federal judges to use it to bash the Supreme Court under the cloak of anonymity.
These judges are unhappy with the Supreme Court for overturning lower court rulings involving the Trump administration with minimal explanation. Of course, there are so many of these cases because too many judges are behaving like activists rather than jurists. In fact, the Supreme Court was forced to issue a ruling limiting lower courts’ ability to issue nationwide injunctions because so many judges were abusing them to stop President Trump’s executive orders.
Americans have confidence in the judiciary only if people believe it is impartial. Anonymous interviews and partisan complaining erode the public trust that’s indispensable to the effective functioning of our third branch of government.

The shocking news of Charlie Kirk’s assassination strikes like a thunderbolt to the heart of America.
At only 31 years old, Charlie was more than a political voice. He was a husband, a father, and a relentless champion of freedom, faith and conservatism. I had the privilege of meeting him recently. His conviction reminded me of the same clarity and good cheer Rush Limbaugh carried into every battle.
Charlie was brutally gunned down for daring to speak the truth—truth grounded in Christian conviction—in the public square. This is not just the loss of one remarkable man—it is an attack on the values that built this nation. This horror was fueled by the toxic culture of division and hate the left has encouraged for years.
We grieve with Erika and their young children. But even in our sorrow, we must be resolute. The fight Charlie embodied—for God, family, freedom, and America itself—cannot be silenced. As we approach our nation’s 250th anniversary, Charlie’s mission is now ours to continue.

This week, Democrats utterly conceded the issue of crime. Before Trump deployed the National Guard in DC, mayors and governors in blue states shrugged crime off as inevitable. Illinois Governor Pritzker did so in a national interview last month.
When crime dropped dramatically in DC, the situation changed. Voters in high-crime areas run by Democrats now see what’s possible, and want their communities cleaned up too.
The high-profile murder in North Carolina escalated the contrast. A young Ukrainian woman got stabbed to death by a repeat felon who had no business being out of prison. Trump demanded justice for the victim and action to prevent more crime. In response, Democrats and the media defended the perpetrator and his “mental illness” against the “pouncing” of Trump and Republicans.
Democrats’ obsession with Trump keeps blinding them to the reality of voters’ lives. Democrats keep trying to outsmart Donald Trump. Instead, they keep painting themselves further into radical corners.
