As we've reported, American politicians haven't exactly covered themselves in glory after the shooting death of Turning Point USA's Charlie Kirk, 31. It was just days ago that Gov. Tim Walz had wink wink wished for news of President Donald Trump's death. Sen. Elizabeth Warren made it a whole seven seconds before going on a nearly five-minute rant about gun control in Massachusetts and Trump's incendiary rhetoric.
Kirk left a huge legacy, both in his personal life and in his work with Turning Point USA. International leaders popped in as evidence of Kirk's influence. Here's Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni:
That translates as:
I am shocked by the news of the killing of Charlie Kirk, a young and followed Republican activist. An atrocious murder, a deep wound for democracy and for those who believe in freedom. My condolences to his family, to his loved ones, and to the American conservative community.
Thank you.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also reached out:
His post continues:
We lost an incredible human being.
His boundless pride in America and his valiant belief in free speech will leave a lasting impact.
Rest in peace, Charlie Kirk
He "stood tall for Judeo-Christian civilization" …. thank you for having the guts to say it.
