The assassination of Charlie Kirk has revealed troubling truths about America's political divide.
On the right, Christians have responded with prayer, vigils, and church services. There was no rioting, no burning of private businesses or government buildings after Kirk's murder. This stands in sharp contrast to how Democrats respond to pivotal events (remember the nationwide BLM riots of 2020).
Meanwhile, on the left, Kirk's death was celebrated because assassination culture has been normalized by a party that smears opponents as "Nazis" and "Fascists," while its armed revolutionary groups spread propaganda that it's acceptable to kill such people.
These sharply different responses have not gone unnoticed, and many Americans now recognize that Democrats have not just lost the plot ... they are actively driving political violence.
Instead of burning down mom-and-pop shops and rioting in response, the reaction from conservatives is one of building an even stronger movement than ever before.
Benny Johnson outlined a series of events in the aftermath of the Kirk assassination, pointing to multiple incidents showing that political violence in America is emanating from the left. The problem has grown so severe that it may have even become a national security risk. President Trump said last week that his team will be cracking down on leftist groups sowing chaos and may even label the Antifa movement as a terrorist organization.
Much of this left-wing chaos stems from dark-money-funded NGOs operating the permanent protest industrial complex, amplified by leftist politicians and corporate media.
The left is fueling what some have dubbed "civil terrorism," constantly branding conservatives as "fascists," "Nazis," and "racists," effectively creating target profiles for armed, unhinged leftist groups - or for lone-wolf actors like the furry-obsessed man in a relationship with a transgender who has been charged with Kirk's political assassination.
At the highest levels!
Johnson pointed out that all this chaos unfolded in just one week from leftist activists:
"Tell me this is a 'both-sides' issue. No. Political violence in America is driven entirely by Left-wing violence committed by Democrats. It is a national epidemic, driven by the media and those in power who actively celebrate violence as a political tool. It's only getting worse," Johnson said.
Johnson added, "Law enforcement and Republican politicians need to get very, very serious about this. Now."
What must not be lost here is that Democrats have normalized assassination culture. A decade of calling conservatives "fascists" and "nazis" has effectively created a master kill list of political enemies, fed to the far-left fringes in America that are now openly "planning for war against fascists."
Does this sound familiar?
And wow.
