The Brew: Another Trans Terrorist Kills Christians. Dem Mayor Mocks Victims' Religion

“We lost a future president of the United States yesterday,” Eric Metaxas told me on the phone Thursday as we tried to process the murder of his old friend Charlie Kirk.

I knew Charlie only slightly: He’d been trying to start a MAGA-friendly college in New York City, and I was roped in on some of the phone calls. I warned him against the idea, saying that Antifa would attack the building and even the students, but local police would be told to stand down and let the radicals rampage. “That’s how bad it is, Charlie,” I said.

He knew that even better than I did, and the project didn’t go forward. But Charlie did.

He kept on going to colleges where open hatred reigns, attempting to pry the addled lambs out of the mouths of tenured wolves through calm and reasoned discourse. The Left now imposes the death penalty for that category of crime, calling Christian speech “violence” and transgender violence “speech.”

I think Charlie Kirk really was presidential material, a self-made national leader who didn’t even bother finishing college because he had more important things to do, a whole-hearted Christian believer who practiced the virtue of patriotism because he genuinely loved his neighbors. I think someone on the Left agreed with our assessment of Kirk’s potential and dispatched a trained sniper to hack it off at the root. These are the people we’re dealing with, whom we must name as fellow citizens. I’ll just offer a sampling of the wickedness on display.

Our Bloodthirsty Elites

At America’s Newspaper of Record:

At the law firm that coordinated the Russia collusion hoax on behalf of the Deep State and where Joe Biden’s FBI maintained a workspace:

Inside the Secret Service:

Over at BlueSky, the social media platform for liberals offended by “hate speech”:

On the social media accounts of Florida public school teachers:

Over at FEMA:

At the Oxford University student union, from a leftist who’d actually debated Charlie Kirk in person: (profanity)

Our Rudderless, Ruthless Leaders

There is much, much more like that. Perhaps it’s even more shocking to see how leftist legislators behaved when they got the news of the political assassination of a young father who never espoused violence or hate. Here are Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives disrupting an attempted moment of silence for Kirk:

Over in the European Union parliament, the spectacle was the same:

Here’s an actual member of Congress making the case that Kirk essentially deserved his fate — bringing the politics of her native hellhole, Somalia, to our green and pleasant shores:

Across the nation, among our elites and their misguided sycophants, the taunts rise from the foot of the cross: “Where is your God now? He saved others, but he cannot save himself!” Charlie wouldn’t be surprised. He knew his Scripture:

Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. (Matthew 5:10-12)

Voices of Decency and Faith

But there are also moments of decency, respect, even inspiration:

Here’s a beautiful, spontaneous prayer from an African-American woman heartbroken by the news:

And an uplifting message from author Allie Beth Stuckey:

Glenn Greenwald was thoughtful enough to unearth the comments of Robert F. Kennedy, Sr., on the death of the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., not long before RFK’s own assassination. It’s a video well worth watching all the way through. 

I’d like to highlight the comments of Eric Metaxas, published yesterday morning. From his essay, “My Friend, Charlie“:

He was simply one of the most naturally gifted human beings we have ever had. His level of talent — and what he did with that talent in such a short time — was truly awe-inspiring and almost shocking. But it’s vitally important to say that at the center of his truly astonishing gifting was his deep faith in Jesus. He wasn’t “sort of” Christian. He was outspokenly and boldly Christian. That was at the heart of everything he said and did — at the heart of his patriotism and conservatism. Jesus was at the heart of it all.

Which is the one reason I don’t need to mourn his death as the world mourns. No. Charlie is with Jesus. That is inescapably glorious, however much we will miss him, and of course we will miss him A LOT. But we can rejoice that according to God’s plans — which are not our own — Charlie fulfilled his assignment. And therefore Jesus says to him what we should all earnestly desire to hear more than anything in the world: “Well done, good and faithful servant.” We should all live to hear those words from the Author of our lives. From the Author of goodness and truth and peace and love and joy and hope. There is nothing more wonderful. Nothing. I can rejoice today because I know that Charlie understood that and lived for that….

I’ve also often said that God is with us in this war, and that it is His will that we win. And I believe we will win. But in a war there are casualties. And Charlie is one of those casualties. But may his death remind us of why we are in this war. We are in this war to spread the love and the truth of God, and to show those who hate us that we will not stoop to what they will stoop to. We would rather die. And if we must die, we WILL die, knowing that when we die, we do NOT die, but step into the presence of the One Who is Truth and Love. That’s not just a nice idea. It’s the most important thing in the universe.

Amen.
