On this solemn September 11th, Erick Erickson reflects on the state of our nation after the assassination of Charlie Kirk. From the disturbing gloating of educators online to the progressive framing of words as violence, Erickson warns of a cultural and political tipping point. He also examines how mainstream media coverage, including CBS and CNN, continues to marginalize conservative voices while shaping narratives that excuse violence from the left. What we choose as individuals will determine the direction of America as it approaches its 250th year.

Please keep Charlie Kirk and his family in your prayers. Violence cannot be the answer to our political differences.
