Just The News is now reporting that Charlie Kirk confirmed dead, according to multiple government officials.
I’m taking the rest of the day off, sorry.
Earlier reports follow.

Updates, from Kate;
Video of alleged shooter. Update: Wrong suspect? New (unconfirmed) reports are the shooter hasn’t been located.
Daily Wire on X is probably the best source for updates.
Having just watched another angle of the shooting, I think it unlikely Charlie has survived this. That’s your warning before you view it.
Enemies of the People never let us down.
Source tells me Charlie is stable.
Please god

Glen Beck has the same information.
The “hate has no place here” crowd are the most hateful group there can be.
Not just hateful, they act on it.
And usually get away with it with cult status.
I’m hoping that Trump will make those demoncrats pay a price for this horror. THE MSM too,
I watched many clips of Charlie working the crowd. He had an uncanny memory and seemed to know a lot about a lot of things.
I cannot see anything good coming from this … the shooter makes the entire left look like the savages that they are.
NY Post is following it.

When Democrats aren’t busy trying to assassinate political leaders they disagree with, they busy themselves murdering innocent little unborn babies.
There’s a closeup video on x.com and it looks pretty grim. I don’t think he’ll make it 🙁 Sure hope he does.
View looking at Charlie,

That looks VERY bad. Praying for Charlie and his family.
I’m criticized here by Lupus Solus for posting anti LGBTQueer-mutant comments. I’m not going to jump to any conclusions … except to say that Charlie was fielding a question about the mutant mass shooters when shot. Coincidence? Possibly. Possibly not.
No. I won’t stop talking about the mutations of our once natural, beautiful, peaceful, culture. Even though I was CANCELED by the so-called “conservative treehouse” for criticizing forced mutant-education of our children. Perhaps these people want to permanently silence … permanently CANCEL our normalizing voices.
He was talking about gang violence in the clip I just watched.
That’s not what was being reported. As I said … not going to jump to any conclusions.
However, I just saw a close-up clip of Charlie getting hit (on Nextdoor) … hit in the neck with a massive rooster tail of blood. He dropped dead … right there.
This is horrendous … whatever the motivation.
Jason Chaffetz just reiterated … and he was there … that Charlie was starting to answer a question about mass shootings by transgenders when he was shot.
Does that imply or equal specific intent? No. We will have to wait and see.
And now, Joey Gallegos, who was 15ft. from Charlie … an eyewitness … said he had just started to answer a question about mass shootings by transgenders.
Maybe he was shot just because he was Charlie Kirk (and hated by some violent prog) and not because of anything he was about to say.
And for the gazillionth time we hear that poor Kenji was banned from theConservativeTreehouse.
Even worse, Kenji has now donned a pre-martyr’s cloak:
“Perhaps these people want to permanently silence … permanently CANCEL our normalizing voices.”
Good for you. You don’t like the truth I speak. Well, someone certainly SILENCED Charlie … as he was speaking of rationality, and normalcy, and Christ.
Maybe he was shot just because he was Charlie Kirk (and hated by some violent prog) and not because of anything he was about to say.
Correction Lupus: … because of anything and everything Charlie has ALREADY said, repeatedly, about “trans” nonsense and depravity. Everything Charlie has ALREADY said about Christ and the Natural biological order of the world. Precisely BECAUSE of Charlie’s constitutional guarantee of FREE SPEECH.
Once again Kenji demonstrates that he doesn’t understand English.
“because he was Charlie Kirk” obviously includes his core beliefs and everthing and anything he has said and done, all of his past history in other words.
Also, the “truth” you speak is often just you jabbering out whatever pops into your head in a stream of conscious manner.
Kate, it appears we are both right as Charlie had just answered a question about how many Transgender mass shooters there have been? He answered “five” I believe. And then a quick follow up question intended (in my estimation) to compare and contrast the very FEW number of transgender shootings there have been … in the context of how many gang shootings or non-transgender mass shootings?
In my estimation … this was a planned and coordinated execution … intended to add just one more “non-transgender” shooting. I believe a conspiracy is/was afoot to set-up this dramatic execution. No … this isn’t just ME … imposing my anti-LGBTQueer-mutant societal concern. No, this has all the stench and tracks of a deliberate, targeted, and coordinated execution.
I watched the clip and wish I hadn’t.
He’s not making it.
The Left does all the murder but the Right gets all the blame.
Wait till all the cowards come out and say Charlie deserved it.
I liked Charlie and I thought he was respectful to people.
Why wait when they already are.
https://x.com/nicksortor/status/1965855340446269865
It’s quite hideous what the left are saying.

“I watched the clip and wish I hadn’t.
He’s not making it.”
I thought the same. Actually my first thought was that it didn’t look real…but if it was, he was dead in seconds. RIP Charlie. 🙁
I wonder what Bill Maher will say about this incident, given that he interviewed Charlie not that long ago.
MSNBC – It could have been a supporter shooting in celebration.

Apparently the close-up is an ai fake:
https://x.com/MarinaMedvin/status/1965857398179983773
I sure hope it is. My god.
I’m with you. I pray that’s FAKE, as I pray for Charlie’s life.
Yes please!
The old bald gray haired shooter? He looks JUST like every loser-Boomer I saw holding signs and screaming outside Tesla dealerships … and on the street corner of the main intersection of my town holding “No Kings” signs.
Our enemy is demented. Not a single one of them can be trusted.
Evil. Pure Satanic EVIL
If … that was a FAKED AI video of Kirk looking to get a kill shot … then we need to find a way to police and prosecute purveyors of FAKE AI information. Such as birthday letters to Jeffery Epstein.
I am actually surprised at how much this upsets me. I’m not normally quite this emotionally upset.
This PRAGAMATIC libertarian has been thinking about this for quite some time: the need for extreme restrictions on AI images purporting to be real. At the bery least a clear sizeable disclosure notice that it’s AI. Now, think of the asshole that would whip up an AI image of fatally shot Charlie Kirk. RIP.
My comment grates against my laissez-faire libertarian leanings as well. But when no images can be trusted … something’s gotta give. I think of asswipe HS boys who create FAKE AI nude images of HS girls to humiliate or blackmail them. That’s a pretty easy example of needed regulations.
I just heard an eyewitness … who had just asked and debated a question about religion with Charlie … who disagrees with ALL of these corrections … except he clearly said the man in custody was NOT the shooter … but may have “confessed” he was, as in … he wanted to shoot Charlie because of his anti-trans opinions. He said the shooter was positioned further away from Charlie on a balcony/rooftop … and that he said he saw … from 20yd away … massive blood coming from Charlie … and it looked GRIM.
That same eyewitness opined that this shooting had the FEEL and appearance of a coordinated conspiracy. The man taken into custody was yelling “shoot him” right after the question about transgender hate was asked. The man said it felt all too coordinated and conspiratorial in the timing.
And I listen carefully to what people say and how they say it … everything. Everything … this eyewitness said sounded correct, and has proven accurate. And I believe he was actually challenging Charlie on a point about his faith.
I was half expecting the shooter to be wearing a t-shirt from a youtube gun channel.
Original trump shooter took down Demolition Ranch, a channel with 10 million subscribers
Troon church shooter mentioned AK guy…
Feels coordinated.
Megyn Kelly is saying he’s passed away. NY Post says he’s gone:
https://nypost.com/2025/09/10/us-news/charlie-kirk-possibly-targeted-in-shooting-at-utah-valley-university-event-during-his-american-comeback-tour
Absolutely brutal. So sad.
Believe me, you do NOT want to see the shooting video. Truly traumatized me, seeing that. Wish I hadn’t. The horror. Bless Charlie and hoping he recovers. How could someone do this?
Live on Fox, he’s gone.
Wake up call. We are at WAR.
This was a mostly-peaceful assassination as no innocent bystanders were hit … in 3-2-1…
Retribution better damn well be swift.
This is why I don’t publicize my political beliefs. I know it’s letting them win or whatever but I’d rather not get attacked for disagreeing with leftists thanks. Or dealing with charges if I defend myself against them.
As someone with a family, it’s hard to disagree with you. Just don’t EVER turn in your neighbor.
James:
THAT has fairly recently become my policy as well.
No need to be bashful or anxious about “letting them win”.
There is in todaze world zero percentage in expressing your views to people who have zero interest in give-and-take debate.
So much swirl, so quickly.
Wait and watch.
That said, this world is deeply sad and sick, and world weariness creeps in, despite wan hope.
As Kenji noted, for some unknown reason, this news about Charlie is affecting me more than normally, and I barely have followed the young dude.
I am deeply saddened by Kirk’s murder.
Also, deeply saddened by the brutal murder of that poor young girl on the train who was a legitimate Ukrainia refugee.
AND saddened by the scant attention to her murder by MSM especially considering the wall to wall coverage and canonization of Saint George of Floyd.
And of course the totally innocent cop sent to prison whose live has been ruined.
Honestly, the last time I felt this way was in 1968 … when I was in 6th grade and Bobby Kennedy was assassinated. It was shocking and brutal … and he was promising to deliver a NEW way of politics … focused on the young.
And there’s something particularly upsetting about seeing a completely innocent girl just making her way home from work … suddenly, from behind, without any warning or opportunity to defend herself is brutally, violently, STABBED in the neck and bled out … quickly. Particularly random and senseless … unless you believe he WANTED to target a white girl.
So open debate is shutdown because mental defectives and religious fanatics deem it so by murdering people who disagree with them.
DJT was almost murdered because he was politically wrong-minded – a patriot.
Don’t think for a second that the upper echelon Leftwing establishment is unhappy with this or other events.
They don’t even have to wash their hands.
This is heavy. I wasn’t some dedicated follower, but I have watched some of his videos and admired him a lot. An intelligent young man who debated sharply and spoke truth but treated his opponents with respect and decency.
Very sad for his wife and children.
On election night 2024 I watched as people who were helped by Charlie Kirk to organize tracked voters and votes in the key battleground states. The prevention of the election malfeasance that took place in 2020 was key to Trump’s victory. I find difficult to believe this is crazy lone shooter. We will need to wait and see. There is video in the link as to what he was addressing just before he was shot. God help us all.

DESPICABLE! Democrats shout during moment of silence & prayer for Charlie Kirk in the House of Representatives
https://x.com/Breaking911/status/1965889011999977756?
Evil hands have created another martyr. RIP, Charlie.
Oh my I am so sorry and just upset that this happened. So very sad and unfortunate.
@FBIDirectorKash
The subject for the horrific shooting today that took the life of Charlie Kirk is now in custody. Thank you to the local and state authorities in Utah for your partnership with @fbi
.
We will provide updates when able.
Correct me if I’m wrong here. But didn’t he just start doing appearances on Fox as a commentator? So he’s essentially a ‘journalist’ on national news and the rest of the industry is saying ‘ well, he had controversial opinions ‘. I have some thoughts.
I am truly and profoundly shocked and saddened by the heartless, callous, barbaric murder of a brave, intelligent young man who now leaves behind a widow to raise two beautiful children by herself. Shocked…but not surprised.
Why was he murdered? For the simple “crime” of standing against the hate filled, vile rhetoric of a perverse science and he was effective and energetic in doing so. Those that preach tolerance, “love”, understanding, their version of generosity (with other people’s money) are often the most selfish and despicable people when someone dares to question their failed and sick ideology.
I pray for Charlie’s family. To all who are close to him. To all who appreciated his strength and bravery. Most of all, I pray for a society that has seen fit to silence a voice that simply brought truth.
We have also witnessed an innocent young woman having her life taken away by a violent cretin. The silence of the “tolerant” is deafening. We were subject to endless admonitions from our “betters” and rioting when a worthless, criminal, crackhead had a heart attack while resisting yet another arrest.
For some reason, I am drawn to the date of October 16th, 1859 and a small town in Virginia called Harper’s Ferry. The vile left may have bitten off more than they can chew.
So sorry for Charlie and his family and friends. My deepest condolences.
Review the comments on this thread and ask where we go from here.
