The political assassination of Charlie Kirk – one of America’s most beloved, influential and courageous thought-leaders – is an abomination. 

So far, it is unclear who was responsible for silencing this brilliant man, or what effect Charlie’s murder will have on the country he loved so profoundly and the young people he inspired and empowered so impactfully.

What is clear is that we can no longer ignore the international and increasingly the domestic threats about which he warned relentlessly. 

In particular, as we mark twenty-four years to the day when nineteen men called to jihad by Islam’s Sharia doctrine inflicted unprecedented mass destruction on our country, we must heed Charlie’s admonitions that its adherents are here – and determined to achieve that goal and the demise of Judeo-Christian civilization, more generally. 

We must honor our friend, Charlie Kirk, by carrying on his vital work.
