Charlie Kirkâs âWar Roomâ Hits New Level: Now With Assassins
In a plot twist no reality show could top, Charlie Kirkâs assassination at Utah Valley University unleashed the MAGA meltdown of 2025. Trump dubbed Kirk a 'martyr for truth and freedom' while promising to crack down on the 'radical left'âbecause nothing says calm like presidential vigilante justice. Steve Bannon hopped on his 'War Room' podcast declaring Kirk fell to an assassinâs bullet in 'political combat.' Foxâs Jesse Watters, clearly auditioning for a post-apocalyptic film, asked what MAGA would do now that theyâre 'at war.' Meanwhile, the shooter remains at large and motives unknown. Democrats didnât get a free pass either: arsons and threats against them are on the record, yet silence reigns. Republicans like Rep. Derrick Van Orden vow to 'go to war' on 'leftist scumbags,' and Stephen Miller insists millionsâ fate depends on defeating this 'wicked ideology.' Bonus shade: GOPâs own Thom Tillis called out some conservatives for exploiting Kirkâs death as a war call, a sentiment about as popular as a car GPS telling you to turn into a lake. Meanwhile, experts warn violence will escalate because america likes its drama dial cranked to eleven, and quiet calls for peace sound like background noise to the political soundtrack of chaos. If this isnât a setup for a Netflix docuseries titled 'How Not to Run a Country,' what is?
