Conservative activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated on September 10 at Utah Valley University in Orem.
He was shot and killed during his hallmark Q&A sessions, part of what was to be his American Comeback Tour.
His death rocked the political landscape. Love him or hate him, and the Left sure did, Kirk wrested the youth vote away from Democrats.
In due time, it wouldn’t have been far-fetched to think that Kirk would run for president.
The National Football League left the decision to hold a moment of silence for the activist to each franchise - 5 opted not to do so on Sunday (via NY Post)…
