I'm Erica Mandy. Thanks so much for being here. You ready? Let's do this. The person who shot and killed conservative

activist Charlie Kirk may not be the only one punished for his murder. President Trump and his

top advisors announced they're going after what they say

is a left-wing network that funds and incites violence. And they're investigating whether these groups

had anything to do with Kirk's murder or other violent incidents. Though as of this morning,

investigators have not said what exactly motivated Kirk's suspected killer. Utah's governor has said

the suspect had a leftist ideology, but that he

acted alone. Now, keep in mind, America has actually seen a wave of violence across the political

left-wing groups as domestic

terrorists. To that, Democratic lawmakers have accused the Trump administration of using Kirk's death

as an excuse to go after the political opposition, not just hate speech or violence. Vice

President J.D. Vance addressed that yesterday when he hosted Charlie Kirk's talk show as a tribute.

Vance specifically said the administration will not go after a constitutionally protected speech. And the VP said more than anything, he is desperate for national unity.

During the show, Vance brought on some of the highest ranking members of the Trump administration to praise Kirk and talk about their plans to honor his legacy. Meanwhile, some new details have come out about the shooting investigation. FBI director Cash Patel told Fox News,

authorities found physical evidence connecting the suspect to the shooting, like DNA and a note.
