The Politics of Violence: Charlie Kirk's Killing and the Blurred Lines of Accountability The preliminary hearing against Tyler Robinson, accused of killing conservative activist Charlie Kirk, is unfolding in a Utah courtroom.
The case has drawn big names like Donald Trump Jr. and far right activist Jack Posobiec, who were present at the hearing.
President Trump blamed "radical left" ideology for the killing, echoing his administration's playbook: conflating criticism with violence to justify further crackdowns on liberal organizations and donors.
