I was recently reminded that as we were getting ready to enter September I described it as a “pivotal” month. I got to thinking about that, and I decided to look up the definition of “pivot”. According to Vocabulary.com, to pivot “is to turn or rotate, like a hinge”. I found that to be very interesting, because events have certainly taken a significant “turn” this month, haven’t they? In fact, many are referring to the assassination of Charlie Kirk as a major “turning point”, and that also happens to be the name of the organization that he founded.
We have seen such an explosion of emotion on all sides in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s death.
But there is one thing that virtually everybody agrees on.
Nothing will be the same after this.

The Trump administration has sounded the alarm on what we’ve openly described as “civil terrorism” – revolutionary left-wing political violence – following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. In a sign of urgency, the White House requested an extra $58 million in security funding for the executive and judicial branches, according to a Bloomberg News report.
I wrote quite a bit about Charlie Kirk’s shooter on Friday, and over the weekend we learned some shocking new details.
