In the wake of the shooting of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, the left is calling for even more political violence and assassinations, and now Conservative Party Leader in Canada, Pierre Poutineev, is facing death threats himself. We begin with the breaking news out of Utah, and President Trump's statement on the matter.
00:03:42.420If the left gets to him and kills him, that's the end of Canada.
00:03:46.080So I really hope he has a good security detail, because he's going to need it.
00:03:50.420So next, I'm going to show you the statement from Donald Trump on the matter.
00:03:53.060To my great fellow Americans, I am filled with grief and anger at the heinous assassination of Charlie Kirk on a college campus in Utah.
00:04:03.940Charlie inspired millions, and tonight, all who knew him and loved him are united in shock and horror.
00:04:10.840Charlie was a patriot who devoted his life to the cause of open debate and the country that he loved so much, the United States of America.
00:04:21.660He fought for liberty, democracy, justice, and the American people.
00:04:26.200He's a martyr for truth and freedom, and there's never been anyone who was so respected by youth.
00:04:32.780Charlie was also a man of deep, deep faith, and we take comfort in the knowledge that he is now at peace with God in heaven.
00:04:43.800Our prayers are with his wife, Erica, the two young, beloved children, and his entire family, who he loved more than anything in the world.
00:04:54.560We ask God to watch over them in this terrible hour of heartache and pain.
00:05:04.260Charlie Kirk traveled the nation, joyfully engaging with everyone interested in good faith debate.
00:05:11.720His mission was to bring young people into the political process, which he did better than anybody ever,
00:05:19.560to share his love of country and to spread the simple words of common sense.
00:05:25.420On campuses nationwide, he championed his ideas with courage, logic, humor, and grace.
00:05:32.740It's a long past time for all Americans and the media to confront the fact that violence and murder are the tragic consequence of demonizing those with whom you disagree day after day, year after year,
00:05:47.820in the most hateful and despicable way possible.
00:05:51.020For years, those on the radical left have compared wonderful Americans like Charlie to Nazis and the world's worst mass murderers and criminals.
00:06:02.600This kind of rhetoric is directly responsible for the terrorism that we're seeing in our country today, and it must stop right now.
00:06:13.240My administration will find each and every one of those who contributed to this atrocity and to other political violence, including the organizations that fund it and support it,
00:06:25.660as well as those who go after our judges, law enforcement officials, and everyone else who brings order to our country.
00:06:34.580From the attack on my life in Butler, Pennsylvania last year, which killed a husband and father, to the attacks on ICE agents, to the vicious murder of a health care executive in the streets of New York,
00:06:47.840to the shooting of House Majority Leader Steve Scalise and three others, radical left political violence has hurt too many innocent people and taken too many lives.
00:06:59.560Tonight, I ask all Americans to commit themselves to the American values for which Charlie Kirk lived and died.
00:07:07.620The values of free speech, citizenship, the rule of law, and the patriotic devotion and love of God.
00:07:16.420Charlie was the best of America, and the monster who attacked him was attacking our whole country.
00:07:22.400Charlie, an assassin tried to silence him with a bullet, but he failed because together we will ensure that his voice, his message, and his legacy will live on for countless generations to come.
00:07:36.040Today, because of this heinous act, Charlie's voice has become bigger and grander than ever before, and it's not even close.
00:07:45.440May God bless his memory, may God watch over his family, and may God bless the United States of America. Thank you.
00:08:48.140But, you know, Charlie Kirk really is a hero and a family man and somebody that had a real vision.
00:08:53.300And the left and the globalists have really screwed up because, look, there's safety in numbers.
00:09:04.860And I was honestly saying videos I posted, I said, I don't do a bunch of public events, I don't go to colleges, because I guarantee you, if I went out for a year, 10, 15 events, I'll get shot dead.
00:09:16.880And I'm not scared of dying, but I can digitally and cyber level, you know, really counter the globalists.
00:09:24.380And I remember telling people, I think I've even said it on air, I said, man, I'm surprised Charlie Kirk's not dead.
00:09:29.220Because the left can't deal with this.
