Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Culture War podcast. I'm your host, Tim Poole. We have breaking news as we start the show. A press conference just concluded the governor of Utah as well as the FBI and the sheriff. They have stated the man who killed Charlie Kirk has been captured. They explained in detail the engravings on the

bullet casings, which based on how this individual was turned in, that is, he was turned in

by a family member. They explained that the family members personally had had a conversation

with the suspect, stating that Charlie Kirk had spread hate speech or hateful rhetoric.

The bullet casings expressed furry memes, furry culture memes, it appears, as well as anti-fascist ideology, notably saying, hey, fascist catch, as well as, hey Bella Chow, which is a song that was sung by Italian

resistance fighting Nazis and fascists. So it seems to be that this is, at least for now,

based on the assessment by law enforcement, a left-aligned individual who assassinated Charlie

Kirk. He has been captured. There will be breaking news that is still coming out throughout the

day, so we'll be tracking that. Normally, we just kind of have the general conversation.

But we will be discussing for this show the underlying cause of the mental illness in this country,

illness in general, what's plaguing us, but the political violence. And considering the response we've seen from the corporate press as well as

many prominent left-aline and liberal individuals, which are either claiming both sidesism, glorifying

the death of Charlie Kirk.

I'm certainly, I have a lot of strong statements to make.

And I'll start simply by saying because it's personal and I want to say it, the amount of

security that I have and other

personalities in a similar space is incomparable to the amount of freedom and lack of security

that our counterparts on the left have. That is, we spend millions. We have security perimeters,

active armed guards. We face threats on a daily basis or more.

I understand many on the left do as well, but I can just tell you based on the events

we hold versus the events we see on the left, the amount of security we have is substantially

higher.
