Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Truth be told, I didn't want to do the show today.

I don't know why I'm this upset.

And when I say upset, I feel the sense of mourning,

and I was not a fan of Charlie Kirk.

I made that very clear on this show many times.

What he created, though, the movement that he spearheaded is undeniable.

He did something phenomenal.

Be that out as his may.

He was assassinated yesterday.

Throughout the entirety of the day, my phone was blowing up.

Messages from veterans and ballistic experts alike.

Saw the video. I saw the video. I had it sent to me. Oh my God. I was bombarded with it yesterday.

From messages, DMs, texts, you name it.

It was, yeah. And I didn't want to say anything, but I saw with that round hit. And,

you know, there was hope. I do believe in miracles. I believe God works in very, very mysteriously weird ways sometimes.

And there was hope.

But I don't, you don't survive something like that.

Right now, many of you are feeling bewildered.

You're feeling maybe a little strange in your own country

that you saw something so insane happen.

These are not the actions of a civilized society, but then again, folks, we are not a

civilized society.
