THE OFFENSE
CBS Morning host Nate Burleson asked former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy if the horrific assassination of Charlie Kirk was a moment for Republicans to reflect on their rhetoric.
THE TRUTH
Evidence discovered by the FBI shows that the assassin, Tyler Robinson, used Antifa and pro-trans messaging and symbology on his weapon and ammunition, and had previously demonstrated animosity toward Kirk for his conservative ideology. Clearly Kirk’s assassination was a time for the left to reflect on their rhetoric.
