On Tuesday’s ABC News Special Report about Utah County officials formally announcing charges against the suspect in Charlie Kirk’s murder, chief national correspondent Matt Gutman expressed affinity for the suspect and admiration for his love story with a trans person, gushing the text messages released by authorities were “lovingly,” “very intimate,” and “very touching.”

On Saturday, CNN terrorism analyst and former Obama DHS official Juliette Kayyem demanded everyone “stop looking” for a motive in Charlie Kirk’s assassination because we may never know while asking, “Who cares?” On Tuesday, Utah County D.A. Jeff Gray revealed text messages from Kirk’s alleged assassin saying he “had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out.” Later, on Tuesday's…

With Election Day 2024 bearing down, ABC’s The View infamously and inadvertently helped to sink Vice President Kamala Harris’s (D) bid for the White House with a softball question from co-host Sunny Hostin. In an announcement made during Tuesday’s episode, the liberal ladies seemed to be attempting a mea culpa by having Harris on their show next week to hawk her new book about her…

During CBS’s brief reaction Tuesday to Utah County officials announcing charges against the suspect in the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, CBS Evening News co-anchor John Dickerson was forced to listen to then recap for viewers which he had denied hours earlier that Kirk was murdered for his political views. Speaking moments later to correspondent Carter Evans…

The calls to turn down the political rhetoric were nice while they lasted. On Monday’s The Rachel Maddow Show on MSNBC, the eponymous host warned that President Trump and the administration writ large intend to use the assassination of Charlie Kirk to, among other things, “stay in power indefinitely.”

The Atlantic staff writer David Frum joined PBS’s Amanpour and Company guest host Bianna Golodryga on Monday to react to the aftermath of the assassination of Charlie Kirk and used the opportunity to relight the Doomsday beacons that signify democracy itself is under threat from a president who would seek to mess with the 2026 midterm elections.

It's not uncommon to see unhinged leftists writing off Charlie Kirk as a "Nazi" or "Hitler Youth," which could be an excuse for his brutal assassination. And where does this notion of Kirk and Donald Trump in particular as well as MAGA and conservatives in general as Nazis come from? Unfortunately much of it comes from media sources. One of the culprits is Vanity Fair magazine.

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel had a perverted sense of outrage on Monday as he claimed that “the MAGA gang” is “desperately trying” to characterize Charlie Kirk’s killer as not one of them. He also alleged that President Trump is mourning Kirk’s death like a 4-year old who has lost a pet goldfish.

The legacy media are fighting the motive narrative battle with the intensity of the last Japanese soldier in the Philippine jungles after the end of World War II. CBS, in particular, is insisting on a lack of motive in the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

The Sunday "news" shows demanded that Republicans condemn angry speech by conservatives after the murder of Charlie Kirk, not leftist rhetoric. It's perverse after a conservative was gunned down on campus.

The NBC Nightly News complains about the rash of firings of individuals celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk. A report full of misrepresentations and obfuscations attempts to turn these formerly-employed individuals into the newest, purest victims of the shooting.

The left could no longer deny that their side was responsible for (at least some) of the political violence terrorizing this country. But they weren’t willing to admit the of violence that could be attributed to liberal ideology. Monday’s edition of Inside Politics with Dana Bash on CNN saw her and guests dissatisfied with the Trump Administration’s response to the murder of Charlie…

September 15: Martha Raddatz went 0-3 swinging for Trump hate.

For the Democrat hard left, the good news is that Zohran Mamdani, a self-described “Democratic socialist” with a long history of what many consider antisemitism and anti-Israel activism, won the Democratic primary for mayor of New York. The bad news for the Democratic left is that he will likely win.
