It is hard to believe that Charlie Kirk was only 31 years old when he was taken from us in such a dastardly and cowardly manner—shot from 200 meters away.
For years, NEWSRAEL has reported on his events, campus drives, and podcasts. And yet, it still comes as a shock to realize just how young he was. Painful, too, to consider how many decades of life and leadership he had ahead of him.
We grieve for his family, first and foremost.
Charlie was more than a conservative voice; he was a fearless fighter against the lies of the Left and the corruption of academia. He was the young man who could fill a stadium but also sit alone at a folding table on a college lawn, ready to engage anyone willing to challenge him.
