Let's remember Charlie Kirk for who he was.

"I can't stand the word empathy, actually. I think empathy is a made-up, new age term that does a lot of damage." -Charlie Kirk

He may be forgotten, but the vehicle he created for driving right-wing politics has been supercharged with him gone. It is being scaled up and institutionalized as a much more powerful tool of propaganda and political influence.

apparently he was primarly funded by an AIPAC/ wealthy jewish donor, who was giving TP 2mil/year. he pretty much disagreed with the donor when he wouldnt stop hosting TUCKER who is primarly backed by putin, who did not like israel(russian alliance with iran which supports hamas/palestine and discredits Israel) on the show, so the guy pulled the funding, mysteriously he died a few days later.

candace owens released the messages on her show, reddit has some posts about this somewhere.
