Trump’s decisive response to Kirk’s assassination targets left-wing extremism.
The seismic aftershocks from Charlie Kirk’s assassination are still rippling across the nation, and President Donald Trump has just delivered a decisive, long-overdue response that could finally hold the left accountable. While the media scramble to blame “right-wing extremism,” Trump boldly pointed to the true source of the threat, declaring Sunday evening at Morristown Airport in New Jersey that “a lot of people” on the left are already under investigation.
This development is a major step forward, signaling that radical actors whom the mainstream press has long shielded may finally face scrutiny. It’s a message that the White House is willing to confront the forces behind political violence and defend the safety and integrity of Americans who dare to speak the truth.
“Well, the problem is on the left, if you look at the problem,” Trump said. “The problem is on the left. It’s not on the right, like some people like to say, on the right. The problem we have is on the left. And when you look at the agitators, you look at the scum that speaks so badly of our country, the American flag burnings all over the place, that’s the left, that’s not the right.
