Kirk Assassination Spurns Bipartisan Calls For End to Political Violence

Lawmakers from both parties struck a rare note of unity Wednesday following news that conservative activist Charlie Kirk, 31, had died from a gunshot wound.

Messages that initially offered prayers for Kirk’s recovery quickly shifted to condolences for his family, accompanied by broad bipartisan denunciations of political violence.

“It’s devastating news,” House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said. “The idea that political violence has taken one of the strongest voices on the conservative side is a great heartbreak. Charlie was a close friend of mine and a confidant, and he will be sorely missed, and we need every political leader to decry the violence and to do it loudly. The problem is in the human heart, and it’s gotten out of hand.”

“This is beyond terrible,” Sen. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., said. “Charlie Kirk was a husband, father, and son. Violence is never the answer. Sydney and I are keeping the Kirk family in our prayers.”

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., addressed Kirk’s death on the Senate floor and said that “political violence, which this attack seems to be, has no place in this country — none.”

“I’m deeply disturbed about the threat of violence that has entered our political life, and I pray that we will remember that every person, no matter how vehement our disagreement with them, is a human being and a fellow American deserving of respect and protection,” he said.

President Donald Trump confirmed the news on Truth Social and said, “No one understood or had the Heart of the Youth in the United States of America better than Charlie.”

Kirk was shot Wednesday afternoon while speaking at Utah Valley University during his “American Comeback Tour.” The university first reported that a suspect had been taken into custody but later said the individual had been released.

Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, called Kirk “an American patriot, an inspiration to countless young people to stand up and defend the timeless truths that make our country great.”

“This murder was a cowardly act of violence, an attack on champions of freedom like Charlie, the students who gathered for civil debate, and all Americans who peacefully strive to save our nation,” he said.

“The terrorists will not win,” he continued. “Charlie will. Please join me in praying for his wife Erika and their children. May justice be swift.”

Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., added, “We must collectively find a way forward during these polarized times.”
