The Aftermath of the Assassination of Charlie Kirk

from We've Got To Talk

When Charlie Kirk was assassinated in Utah, the immediate response from both political parties revealed something deeply broken about American discourse. Instead of mourning a human life, social media exploded with celebrations, blame, and calls for revenge.We’re processing this tragedy as friends from opposite sides of the political spectrum, sharing their heartbreak over how quickly Americans turned a murder into political ammunition. This episode examines the cruel responses that followed, the systemic issues creating isolated and radicalized young people, and why political violence should terrify everyone regardless of party affiliation.A deeply personal conversation about what we've lost as a country and what we need to find our way back to each other before it's too late.RESOURCES MENTIONED:Polls and Data: YouGov Poll on Political Violence: https://today.yougov.com/politics/articles/52960-charlie-kirk-americans-political-violence-pollPolitical Responses: Governor Spencer Cox: https://youtu.be/PVYqYCHDqHA?si=74Eo3-Uh1uyu9ySySenator Bernie Sanders Statement: https://youtu.be/EUPgz8Q05o4?si=9IUVwsRoMAzo-WK5Media Coverage: The Free Press: https://www.youtube.com/live/Nzachq_DqmQ?si=lDbYBpNkH1TXTF5KTangle Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tangle/id1538788132?i=1000726756203Social Media/Commentary: James Talarico: https://www.instagram.com/jamestalarico/?hl=enDan Lanning: https://x.com/albertbreer/status/1967214250449047912?s=42LINKS:On Instagram https://www.instagram.com/wevegottotalk/ On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WeveGotToTalkHow to find Nicole https://nicolefonarow.com/How to find Jolene https://dibledough.com/
