I’m really confused as to why this is being treated so high profile considering he wasn’t a politician or anything. It’s almost like they’re using this to promote their fascist agenda.
Horst Wessel was a minor Nazi and a small time pimp who got shot during a dispute with his landlady. Because he was shot by members of the Communist Party the Nazis decided to elevate his death to a national tragedy.
One of them called it a Reichstag moment. Literally.
“Charlie Kirk being assassinated is the American Reichstag fire,” tweeted a far-right personality named Matt Forney who boasts of having been banned from X before Musk’s takeover. “It is time for a complete crackdown on the left. Every Democratic politician must be arrested and the party banned under RICO. Every libtard commentator must be shut down.”
Kirk would have been 32 next month, and therefore would have been 35 in time to run for President in 2028. Assuming that had happened, he would have probably wiped the floor with Vance’s uncharismatic ass in a primary
He wasnt a politician, but certainly could have been Trump 2.0. I have a feeling Thiel killed two birds with one stone: manufacturing a culture war martyr, and protecting his golden boy from being ousted. Not to mention the third bird of distracting from his connection to Epstein, which information was leaking about the same day just before Kirk was killed.
It seems inevitable that Vance will be taking the Presidency before 2028, considering Trump’s health, making him the defacto candidate for that side of the aisle if no one has enough support to oust him
They’ll never find the shooter, MAGA will be allowed to treat Kirk as a martyr, Vance will usurp Trump, and then Thiel gets everything he wants. Theres a hell of a lot of motive there for a guy who can certainly afford to put a hit on someone
And theyve allegedly got him, the only source being the fountain of truth and veracity himself, Donald Trump. Who even himself stated “this is subject to change, but the facts are the facts”(?!) while calling for the guy in custody to be executed before the interviews are even over.
We’ll see. Ill believe it when the actual law enforcement agencies say they apprehended the guy and know its him based on concrete evidence. Those photos could be practically anybody
Catching the guy or not, it changes nothing about the fact that is very politically convenient to the establishment for Kirk to have been assassinated
A lot of this reminds me of the shooting of Pim Fortuyn in NL over two decades ago. He was very charismatic, a born demagogue, and he would’ve taken NL far-right twenty years before they, unfortunately, still went there. But who knows, maybe that shooter saved Europe from an earlier slide into fascism. No telling what ripple effects will still emanate from this entire situation.
Never let a good tragedy go to waste. Sanctify evil and call its detractor’s behavior abhorrent. Lie, confuse, dilute, and sow chaos. This is what they do, and they’re well practiced.
Because they’ve been champing at the bit for any excuse to escalate their violence against their political opponents, and they couldn’t have asked for anything better.

Almost like some kind of theater?
Some kind.
The worst kind.

All of the parallels really are stunning.

Holy shit, I put my phone down and then though that they are making him into Martin Luther KKKING.
Oh gods. They are going to make a MAGA Luther King Day for him, aren’t they?
How else are they gonna justify repealing Heller v US if it isn’t a high profile assassination?

These conspiracies are getting maga soros levels of delusional…
And for your reference they’ve apparently already apprehended the suspect.
Yeah, my comment was posted over 2 hours ago bud

They love to play the victims more than anything, so a Nazi gets shot and it’s the worst thing that has happened to our country ever.
He was sacrificed to accelerate their fascist takeover
