The Right Wing's Attempt to Create a New Icon
The right wing is trying to make Charlie Kirk a symbol of their movement, similar to Martin Luther King Jr.
Charlie Kirk's "National Day of Remembrance" is an attempt by white supremacists to replace a tradition of justice with their own manufactured myth, according to Alain Stephens, an investigative reporter.
Every single American should take a long, hard look at the twisted soul and dark spirit of anyone who would want to kill a young man as good as Charlie Kirk.
Congress has moved to mark a "National Day of Remembrance" for Kirk, and the White House has ordered flags to be flown at half-staff. Local towns are also issuing proclamations, giving Kirk a level of reverence typically reserved for moral leaders.
