HOT TOPICS | America's Response to Charlie Kirk's Shooting & MAGA's Hypocrisy - September 15th, 2025

This morning, Don takes a hard look at just how dark things have gotten in America. First up: the MAGA response to the Charlie Kirk killing. Political violence is always wrong, but now MAGA world is on a warpath, calling for the firing of anyone who said anything short of absolute adoration for Kirk. Funny how the folks who claim to be champions of “free speech” only mean it when you agree with them. Then, we turn to Fox News host Brian Kilmeade, who actually suggested on air that we should kill homeless people. He has since apologized, but seriously, WTF?! From glorifying violence to silencing dissent, the rhetoric is getting darker by the day. Where does this end? This episode is brought to you by ZBiotics.
