This is the warning.

There is some terrible news that is unfolding in Utah,

and that is that the MAGA activist, the founder of the youth organization,

Turning Point USA has been shot. Charlie Kirk has been shot in Utah. Let me say that this is a

terrible crime. It is an act of reprehensible violence and it should be condemned unequivocally

and directly by every American,

but especially by all of those who stand opposed to the descending curtain of fascism in America.

This act of violence stands the shooter on the side of what we must be against, against the

depravity, against the violence, against the evil that the Trump regime has manifested,

and that Charlie Kirk misguidedly in my view supported and endorsed.

But in this country, we believe unequivocally and without exception in the freedom of speech

and conscience and thought.

And this act of violence directed by a democratic activist will be used by the demagogues of the MAGA

movement, the propagandists to justify the use of force in the imposition

of control by government authority against the citizen because at the core of the MAGA ideology

is a victim and grievance industry that has told people for a generation

that they are victims and that they are hunted. And today, the evidence of that was laid down

with bloody, perfect cloud.

And so a political leader of an opposition that I disdain and detest has been gunned down

while trying to persuade people that he was right. And the act of evil perpetrated

against him is an act of evil that was perpetrated against America and against our highest

ideals and furtherance of an evil, the violence.
