Lots of claims are being made about Charlie Kirk's murder, including that Israel was somehow
spk_0
involved and that the government has the wrong guy.
spk_0
We are going to explore those claims today as well as discuss how Christians should discern
spk_0
what is true and what is not.
spk_0
And surprise, surprise.
spk_0
I've got a hot take about Taylor Swift at the end of this episode.

spk_0
It is a very special week in relatable world.
spk_0
It is the week of share the arrows.
spk_0
Share the arrows is this Saturday, October 11th.
spk_0
Y'all, I am so excited.
spk_0
I know I've been talking about it for a long time, but we've been planning on it longer
spk_0
than we've been talking about it.
spk_0
And I am just so prayerful, so expectant, so humbled and grateful going into this week
spk_0
right now.
spk_0
We have about 6,500 women from six different countries and 48 states all arriving in
spk_0
Dallas, Texas to hear biblical teaching, to worship together, to be challenged, to be
spk_0
encouraged.
spk_0
I sent a text out to all of the speakers this week and I said, look, we want every woman
spk_0
to walk out of there with zero fear of man with a clear understanding of how to apply
spk_0
the word of God into the sphere of life that they occupy right now in this moment.
spk_0
How to take risks for the gospel that will look different than the risks I take, different
spk_0
than the risks that Charlie Kirk took.
spk_0
And yet we are all called to be bold for the truth and I want you to feel just completely
spk_0
strengthened and equipped in a golden after you leave share the arrows.
spk_0
We still do have tickets left.
spk_0

spk_0
Make it so that your wife can go if she wants to go.
spk_0
Make sure that she knows that the kids are going to be taken care of, that their other
spk_0
responsibilities are going to be taken care of, that it's not a hassle that she doesn't
spk_0
have to worry about burdening you or the grandparents or anyone else that it's totally fine, that
spk_0
this is a day for her to go and to be taught and to be refreshed and rejuvenated biblically.
spk_0
It's really important for her to be able to do that.
spk_0
It's important for your family.
spk_0
So whatever you can do to make sure that she knows that everything is taken care of financially
spk_0
and all of that, do that for her.
spk_0
I really think if she wants to go, she will appreciate that so much.

spk_0
We've got our share of the arrows awarded the end of it that I'm so excited about.
spk_0
There's just so much I could go on and on.
spk_0
We'll talk more about it next week after it actually happens.
spk_0
All right, let's get into this much awaited topic.
spk_0
And it's tough.
spk_0
It's tough to talk about all of this for so many different reasons.
spk_0
When it comes to Charlie Kirk's assassination, this just happened.
spk_0
It's very fresh.
spk_0
And it's a human tragedy.
spk_0
It's a personal tragedy to many of us.
spk_0
And as much as we feel it's a personal tragedy, it is a thousand times infinitely
spk_0
deeper ever wound for Erica, for their kids, for the many people who worked with Charlie on a daily
spk_0
basis, just the void that has been left in their lives is huge.
spk_0
But in a way, it is affected so many people that never even met him.
spk_0
I talk to people every day, every week that still haven't been able to process Charlie's
spk_0
death with someone that they know.
spk_0
And I realize sometimes I'm the first person that they meet that actually knew Charlie.
spk_0
And so the emotions are just still so high.
spk_0
So in the midst of that, we are also talking about what actually happened to Charlie Kirk.
spk_0
And there are many theories surrounding it.
spk_0
And some of them I would call conspiracy theories.
spk_0
Some of it is legitimate investigation.
spk_0
Some of it is healthy question asking.
spk_0
And I will talk about how I think as Christians we distinguish between all of those things.
spk_0
And I do think it's okay to seek the truth about an investigation, about a crime like this,
spk_0
a tragedy like this at the same time that you're mourning a person.
spk_0
But I do think we have to be careful how we do it.
spk_0
And so we've spent so much time doing everything we can to honor Charlie
spk_0
and to in our very small way compared to him carry that torch.
spk_0
But I do want to get into some fact versus fiction and just some questions I have about the theory
spk_0
circulating about who was actually involved in Charlie's murder.
spk_0
There are so many claims being made.
spk_0
I do not have time to go through all of the claims today.
spk_0
I don't even have time to go through the claims that we are going through.
spk_0
Like I don't have time to hit every single point on those and debunk every point.
spk_0
So I'm going to do the best that I possibly can to go through two claims.
spk_0
And claim one is that Israel was somehow involved in Charlie's death.
spk_0
And claim two is that the Tyler Robinson evidence has been manufactured.
spk_0
And I don't have all the answers.
spk_0
You don't have all of the answers on all of it.
spk_0
But I think there are some really important questions that we need to ask that actually get
spk_0
us closer to the truth.
spk_0
Okay, let's start with claim one that Israel is involved.
spk_0
And then I'm going to go through the sub claims that I've seen.
spk_0
So under this category.
spk_0
So sub claim one is that Charlie was frustrated about Israel's
spk_0
handling of the Palestinian conflict.
spk_0
I rate this seems to be true.
spk_0
I do think that this sub claim one under the claim that Israel is involved in this murder.
spk_0
I do think this sub claim seems to be true.
spk_0
Charlie went on Patrick David's podcast shortly after October 7th, 2023.
spk_0
And Charlie asked some questions about how this attack could have happened.
spk_0
If Israel is really as secure and intelligent as we know they are.
spk_0
And then he also made a comment about Israel potentially committing an ethnic cleansing in Gaza.
spk_0
Here's someone.
spk_0
Bebe and the Israeli hard right government has a mandate.
spk_0
I gotta be careful the way I say this to they're going to try to ethnically cleanse Gaza.
spk_0
I mean that's and I don't use that term lightly.
spk_0
Okay.
spk_0
They're talking about basically removing 2.5 million people from there.
spk_0
Okay.
spk_0
Okay, so this is not exactly the unconditionally positive portrayal of Israel that you see
spk_0
from some conservatives.
spk_0
Like he had some what people would perceive as harsh words for the Israeli government at the time.
spk_0
Even though Charlie has a history of being extremely pro-Israel, a visiting Israel,
spk_0
he has partnered with Prager University for a long time and really no one ever questioned
spk_0
which side Charlie Kirk was on when it came to the Israel Palestinian conflict or even the
spk_0
Judaism Islam conflict.
spk_0
He has been a very outspoken critic of Islamic extremism for a very long time and yet he had
spk_0
some critical words.
spk_0
Then there's subclaim too.
spk_0
Under this category, Charlie was feeling pressure from pro-Israel activists and potentially pro-Israel
spk_0
donors.
spk_0
He made some comments that made people believe this on August 6, 2025 on Megan Kelly's show.
spk_0
Here's not too.
spk_0
The behavior by a lot, both privately and publicly, are pushing people like you and me away.
spk_0
Not like we're going to be pro-Hamas.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Treating me is so repulsive.
spk_0
I have text messages, Megan calling me an anti-Semite.
spk_0
I am learning Diplocular Hebrew and writing a book on the Shabbat.
spk_0
I honor the Shabbat, literally the Jewish Sabbath.
spk_0
I visit Israel and fight for it.
spk_0
There's another article out in the Times of Israel today.
spk_0
I could read it on air.
spk_0
I was just reading before I got on.
spk_0
Charlie, what are you doing?
spk_0
Like, why are you?
spk_0
What am I doing?
spk_0
I'm sorry.
spk_0
Like let's just take a step back here.
spk_0
Like I'm an American citizen.
spk_0
So he goes on to say he's an American citizen.
spk_0
He's going to put the priorities of America first
spk_0
in where he sees Israel's interest and America's interest
spk_0
contradicting like he is going to be on the side of America.
spk_0
And he was, I believe, getting more and more vocal about that over time.
spk_0
We've got subclaim three.
spk_0
One of the donors, some people are claiming, was Bill Ackman,
spk_0
who was allegedly very angry at Charlie Soffanine's support of Israel.
spk_0
And the accusation goes, he basically blackmailed him
spk_0
or threatened him to change his position.
spk_0
Ackman made an ex post on September 15th responding to these accusations.
spk_0
It was a very long response.
spk_0
But he said, for the record, at no time have I ever threatened Charlie Kirk,
spk_0
turning point or anyone associated with him,
spk_0
I've never blackmailed anyone let alone Charlie.
spk_0
I've never offered Charlie a turning point,
spk_0
any money and an attempt to influence Charlie's opinion on anything.
spk_0
In fact, my interactions with Charlie Kirk
spk_0
have been extremely cordial, albeit limited.
spk_0
Regretfully so as I was very impressed by him and his work.
spk_0
And I will sadly never see him again.
spk_0
So this accusation is referencing a summit or a meeting that actually did occur.
spk_0
I know that it occurred.
spk_0
A lot of people have said that it occurred
spk_0
on at the Hamptons with some conservative influencers.
spk_0
I was not there.
spk_0
I was not invited to a part of that at all.
spk_0
But I know people who were there.
spk_0
And Bill Ackman really was there.
spk_0
Charlie Kirk really was there.
spk_0
And I'm sure there were maybe conversations about Israel
spk_0
because I know Charlie was interested in hosting debates
spk_0
among these conservative commentators on Israel
spk_0
and the Palestinian conflict and how that is being handled.
spk_0
Ackman connected with Charlie via DM back in May,
spk_0
leading to a Zoom call on June 11th,
spk_0
where Kirk expressed concerns about young conservatives,
spk_0
whining support for Israel.
spk_0
Then Ackman posted his private WhatsApp text
spk_0
between him and Kirk to demonstrate their friendly interaction.
spk_0
It looks like Bill Ackman said, how are you?
spk_0
Charlie said I'm doing great.
spk_0
Really enjoyed our time together last week.
spk_0
So this is later.
spk_0
This is actually referencing the Hamptons summit
spk_0
that happened in August.
spk_0
And then Charlie said, thank you again for doing that,
spk_0
speaking about hosting that summit.
spk_0
And then Bill Ackman said, it was great, great to get to know you better.
spk_0
We should do dinner sometime with the ladies.
spk_0
Charlie said that would be awesome.
spk_0
Thank you.
spk_0
I will, etc.
spk_0
Okay, so they're talking about getting together
spk_0
at a certain point.
spk_0
And then Seth Dylan, CEO of the Babylon B,
spk_0
who was there in the Hamptons.
spk_0
He was also accused alongside of Ackman of pressuring Charlie
spk_0
in an intervention to get him to change his stance on Israel.
spk_0
And then Seth Dylan on X in a statement said,
spk_0
I did not organize or participate in any intervention with Charlie.
spk_0
He said that there he had no coercion, no threats
spk_0
that he didn't pressure him in any way
spk_0
and that he didn't notice any kind of anger going on here.
spk_0
Charlie's producer, Andrew Colvette,
spk_0
you were probably already familiar with Andrew,
spk_0
but if you watched my co-hosting of Charlie's show,
spk_0
then you saw him there who is kind of taking the lead right now
spk_0
on Charlie's podcast.
spk_0
He issued a response after consulting turning point staff
spk_0
who attended this August 4th through 5th retreat in the Hamptons.
spk_0
Andrew said, I have been asked about the Bill Ackman event more than a few times now.
spk_0
So I asked our staff who were traveling with Charlie at that time
spk_0
to find out what's true.
spk_0
His team was with him 100% of the time when he wasn't in his hotel room.
spk_0
Here's what they told me, quote,
spk_0
Bill never yelled at Charlie, never pressed him on BB,
spk_0
never gave him a list of Charlie's offenses against Israel.
spk_0
There was concern raised about having Tucker
spk_0
at student action summit and Charlie's reply was, honestly, people
spk_0
telling me not to have Tucker, makes me want to have Tucker,
spk_0
and I'm going to lock him in for Amfest 2.
spk_0
All right, so those are the claims that are being made.
spk_0
Now whether or not you want to believe those claims,
spk_0
maybe you don't believe Bill Ackman, maybe you don't believe Andrew Colvette,
spk_0
maybe you don't believe Seth Dylan,
spk_0
and that is your prerogative to decide who you want to believe.
spk_0
But I am telling you the response to the accusation
spk_0
that the pressure on Charlie reached some kind of fever pitch in the Hamptons
spk_0
and that somehow this point to Israel being a part of Charlie's assassination.
spk_0
All right, we've got another sub claim on this category.
spk_0
But let me go ahead and pause, tell you about our first sponsor for the day.
spk_0
It's WeHart Nutrition.
spk_0
They'll be there at Share the Arrows, which I am so pumped about.
spk_0
They're an incredible sponsor and just an incredible company.
spk_0
I'd be using WeHart Nutrition, no matter what,
spk_0
because I love their products so much.
spk_0
I use their multivitamin.
spk_0
I use their iron supplement.
spk_0
Their Omega-3s.
spk_0
I use their magnesium.
spk_0
I use it all because I love it so much.
spk_0
And it's really helped my hair skin and nails.
spk_0
It's helped my immune system.
spk_0
I just had a very clean bill of health from my doctor after a very thorough
spk_0
blood panel.
spk_0
All of my nutrient levels are really good.
spk_0
And I honestly credit that to WeHart Nutrition,
spk_0
because all of their ingredients in each of their supplements
spk_0
is in the most bioavailable form.
spk_0
So your body will actually absorb it.
spk_0
Unfortunately, a lot of vitamins these days,
spk_0
they put it in the cheapest form and your body can't even absorb that.
spk_0
So what's the point in taking it?
spk_0
You don't have to worry about that with WeHart Nutrition.
spk_0
Plus, they donate a percentage of every sale to pregnancy centers across the country.
spk_0
They are the real deal.
spk_0
Go to WeHartnutrition.com.
spk_0
Use code Allie.
spk_0
You'll get 20% off your order when you do.
spk_0
That's WeHartnutrition.com.

spk_0
Subclaim for Benjamin Netanyahu,
spk_0
lied about Charlie's letter.
spk_0
On September 11th, Benjamin Netanyahu read excerpts of a letter he had received from Charlie
spk_0
Kirkland's Report of Israel and an appearance on Fox News's Faulkner Focus.
spk_0
So here's BB Netanyahu, Sub 3.
spk_0
One of my greatest joys as a Christian is advocating for Israel
spk_0
informing alliances to defend Judeo-Christian civilization.
spk_0
A few weeks before the tragedy yesterday, I called him and I spoke to him and I said,
spk_0
please come to Israel, I invited him to Israel.
spk_0
And sadly, that visit will not take place.
spk_0
But he was a defender of our common Judeo-Christian civilization.
spk_0
He was unbelievably excited to walk at the footsteps of Jesus here.
spk_0
Okay, so after he said that, Candace Owens said that BB Netanyahu is lying about that letter.
spk_0
And since the letter has come out, which we're going to read a little bit,
spk_0
a lot of people have said that Candace was lying saying that BB Netanyahu was lying.
spk_0
And I'm not sure, I don't think that's totally true that she was lying about that.
spk_0
I think that it is true that there were parts of that letter that BB Netanyahu didn't read.
spk_0
But at the same time, I don't know that him not reading the critical parts of Charlie's
spk_0
letter was a malicious omission. It probably just wasn't appropriate on Fox News right after Charlie
spk_0
had died to read all of Charlie's criticism of Israel's messaging. So yes, it is true.
spk_0
What Candace said that the entirety of the letter was not just praising Israel unconditionally.
spk_0
But BB Netanyahu is also right that Charlie wrote that and that Charlie was a supporter of Israel
spk_0
in general and the Judeo-Christian alliance in general. So both are telling the truth there.
spk_0
There is more to this letter though that I do think is important to know.
spk_0
And we can't go through the whole thing because it was a very long letter. It was originally
spk_0
released in its fullness by the New York Post. And Charlie is basically expressing deep affection
spk_0
for Israel in the beginning as a Christian advocate. He says it's been one of his greatest joys.
spk_0
Exactly what we heard BB Netanyahu say here. And then he goes on to say as Muhammadism spreads
spk_0
into Western societies, it's critical that Jews and Christians stay united in the effort to
spk_0
contain a rollback radical islamin-churia law. I regret to report that anti-Israel and
spk_0
anti-Semitic trends are at record levels on social media. These negative sentiments then flow
spk_0
downstream into college campuses and even seep into the conservative Naga community. But then he
spk_0
goes on to tell BB Netanyahu this is mostly Y'all's fault. He's like Y'all's messaging efforts
spk_0
aren't good. Y'all need a new PR strategy and what you are doing to communicate the virtue of
spk_0
Y'all's fight against Hamas. It shouldn't rely on American influencers. And it seemed to me that
spk_0
Charlie was frustrated that he was always having to try to figure out a way to defend everything
spk_0
Israel was doing and that Israel wasn't doing their part in helping American media and American
spk_0
conservatives like get the truth out there. And so this was a very nuanced, a very layered
spk_0
letter to BB Netanyahu that I think showed genuinely who Charlie was and how he really felt.
spk_0
I don't think there's any question that he was very pro-Israel that he really believed in
spk_0
a Judeo-Christian alliance and that he cared about the Holy Land and that he wanted Israel to
spk_0
succeed against Hamas and that he saw Islamism as a huge threat to Western civilization and that
spk_0
he didn't buy into conspiracy theories about Judaism taking over different parts of power in the
spk_0
United States and undermining America. He didn't believe in that from what I can see. I don't
spk_0
have any secret conversations or secret information about Charlie to tell you one way or the other.
spk_0
But it seems obvious to me from what he said publicly and what he said here to Benjamin.
spk_0
To BB Netanyahu. So a lot of people are also saying I've seen out there that oh this was it,
spk_0
this letter wasn't really from Charlie which I don't really understand. I see that from the right
spk_0
it seems. Some people saying this was written by AI. This is chat GPT. This is not Charlie. This is
spk_0
not how Charlie sounds. Why would Charlie send this letter and then I see people on the left saying
spk_0
oh he was so arrogant. Why would he send a letter like that? Well you both are wrong. Number one
spk_0
this sounds exactly like Charlie. This sounds like Charlie. This sounds like how he writes. This
spk_0
sound or how he wrote. This sounds like how he talked. This seems true to the things that he was
spk_0
saying publicly at the time. And so okay. Number two, I saw some people say this is chat GPT and
spk_0
Israel put it out there. Why would Israel put out a letter like this? This makes them look horrible.
spk_0
Why would Israel want to publish a letter that makes them look so bad because he had so much
spk_0
criticism for Israel. So that doesn't make any sense. And then on the other side people saying
spk_0
well this was so arrogant. It must not be real because Charlie would never think he had this much
spk_0
influence. He had this much influence. He had this much influence. Like Israel relies on American
spk_0
conservatives to be their publicist basically in a lot of ways in the West. And Charlie was one of the
spk_0
leading pro-Israel voices and very influential in the Trump administration. So yes he had that much
spk_0
influence on BB Natanyahu. And so I think that the letter is completely real. I don't think that we
spk_0
have any reason to doubt its validity. And then we also have sub claim five which honestly we're
spk_0
not even going to get totally in two because I'm still trying to figure out like what is the claim
spk_0
here? The claim is that turning point is losing money. And I think that the assumption is that it
spk_0
had something to do with Israel. And maybe we'll have to come back and we'll have to really like
spk_0
get into what the truth is about this and the allegation that they were losing money mysteriously
spk_0
and that Charlie wanted to lead some kind of like doge effort to make sure that they weren't losing
spk_0
money in some kind of you know nefarious way in the Tyler Boyer who is the COO of turning point
spk_0
action. He said that they're not losing money that it's not true. This is a standard audit.
spk_0
And so yeah there's a lot of there's a lot of back and forth there and I don't have any insider
spk_0
information to offer you on that one. But all of these points are supposed to come together and
spk_0
we're supposed to at least be squinting our eyes at Israel and saying okay if all of these things
spk_0
are true or at least partially true somewhat true then maybe Israel is involved. And here are some
spk_0
things that I think we need to think about before taking this leap and some questions that I
spk_0
think we need to ask not only when it comes to this claim but really when it comes to any claim.
spk_0
But before we get into that let me go ahead and pause tell you about our next sponsor. It's
spk_0
Carly Jean Los Angeles. I'm wearing my C.J. LA jeans right now because I almost always am. I love C.J.
spk_0
LA's denim fits so well really in any stage of life. It has really good give without
spk_0
losing its shape during the day and it's just really hard to find that especially for the
spk_0
really fair price that C.J. LA jeans are. I love all of my C.J. LA clothes. They're also going to be
spk_0
at share the arrows. All of our share the arrows merch was made by C.J. LA so you know it's going to be
spk_0
top notch and so comfortable. I'm so excited for you all to be able to get yours. But all of their
spk_0
clothes are amazing. They've got new drops like every few months. They're the latest one. So cute
spk_0
just in time for the fall weather especially if you live in warm climate like I do and you want
spk_0
those fall clothes that aren't super heavy you need to go to Carly Jean Los Angeles.com. When you
spk_0
okay here's how conspiracy theories work okay because conspiracy theories are different than
spk_0
critical thinking and question asking and the innuendo is different than investigation and
spk_0
implication is different than investigation and I'm not even pointing fingers right now. I've
spk_0
seen a lot of different Instagram posts a lot of different X-Posts from a lot of different people
spk_0
some that are asking good questions and some that are just spinning up suspicion.
spk_0
And again those two things aren't the same so this is what you need to look for when it comes to
spk_0
any claim. If it's a claim that I make, if it's a claim that someone else makes especially when
spk_0
someone is creating a series out of multiple claims okay. So this is how conspiracy theories work.
spk_0
One you exploit distrust or gaps of information. So in this case we don't trust the government.
spk_0
That's true. We have good reason not to trust the government. There have been things that the
spk_0
government has said that are kind of sketchy like text exchange that the government claimed was
spk_0
between the shooter and the partner. A lot of people said that it seemed fake although I think that
spk_0
there are some questions about that to exploit pre-existing suspicions or resentment. So in this
spk_0
case the people claiming that Israel was involved in this already didn't like Israel. So that to
spk_0
me is a little suspicious. It would be a lot more credible to me if the people pursuing this theory
spk_0
didn't already blame Israel for other things. If they were blaming Germany for this I'd be like,
spk_0
oh that's interesting because I don't see any vested interests in accusing this particular
spk_0
country or if people who like never criticized Israel in the past were like, yeah I really think
spk_0
Israel is a part of this and that might be a little bit more intriguing but it just seems a little
spk_0
bit too on the nose and coincidental that Israel would be involved in a crime and it's being found
spk_0
out by people who are already super critical of Israel. Another characteristic is giving partial
spk_0
truths. So like there are some truths that are in this claim as we already validated. Netanyahu
spk_0
didn't say everything was in that letter. Charlie did exchange words with Bill Ackman. Charlie
spk_0
was concerned with Israel's direction so all of these things are true. But then there's also this
spk_0
aspect giving full truths but making it seem like they're tied together with a secret sauce of
spk_0
special knowledge without ever actually providing the receipts and the evidence to prove those
spk_0
connections. So this happened, this exists and these two things are connected because we should be
spk_0
asking how? Why? So we should be asking what do those two things have in common? How are those two
spk_0
things connected? What do those two things have to do with each other and what do they have to do with
spk_0
Charlie's murder? I need to be told specifically. I need to be told directly. I need to be told
spk_0
explicitly because if we're making claims about who is involved in Charlie's murder like I need
spk_0
the tangible evidence of those connections. It's not enough to just tell me that some things happened
spk_0
and some things exist. Also, as I said, Inuendo is not investigation so if someone knows something,
spk_0
if they have insider information, then they need to release it to the public. I don't want to drip
spk_0
campaign. I don't want multiple, you know, like a thread on this. I just, I want to know if we all
spk_0
are seeking the truth and I want to know the truth too, then I want to know upfront. I don't want
spk_0
like these. Oh, well, you know, this person said this but I know for a fact that that's not true.
spk_0
Tell me how you know for a fact. I want to know how do you know for a fact and like what is the
spk_0
truth? Gosh, I really want to know what is the truth. So here are my specific questions when it
spk_0
comes to this Israel claim. Why would Israel, whose existence is largely dependent upon the support
spk_0
of the US, take out one of the most vocal supporters of Israel and Judaism? Why would they target
spk_0
a confidant of one of the most pro-Israel presidents of all time? Would Israel really risk the further
spk_0
alienation of the American right? Literally some of its only lasting supporters in the world
spk_0
by taking out one of our biggest heroes. And would they do it in a way that internet
spk_0
sleuths can figure out? Because it's either Israel is very stupid or they're extremely cunning
spk_0
and conniving, but I don't understand how they can be both. And I've gone back and forth with some
spk_0
people in my DMs about this one person said, oh, well, look at this, look at how much Israel lobbies
spk_0
in our government. Like look at how much they're trying to influence the media. Look at how many times
spk_0
they're, you know, meeting with commentators, how they were talking to Charlie Kirk and trying to
spk_0
influence what he thinks. Okay, but even if that's true and even if you have a problem with that,
spk_0
what does that have to do with this? Because do you know how many countries and how many
spk_0
corporations do that? Like do you know how many of these entities are trying to influence
spk_0
American media? China, Russia are two of the main ones, Iran, another one? And you know, Charlie
spk_0
was a big critic of Islam, much bigger critic of Islam than he was of Israel. Charlie was a big
spk_0
critic of China. Charlie was a confidant of the president who has been very harsh on Russia.
spk_0
Tell me why there aren't a bunch of theories about those countries involvement in Charlie's murder.
spk_0
Like again, ask why it goes back to Israel. Charlie was critical of a lot of things and a lot of
spk_0
people and a lot of countries and a lot of different ideologies. Like why is it his criticism of one
spk_0
part of what a particular government is doing in the Middle East? Why does that have to be the thing
spk_0
that probably led to his murder? It just doesn't make sense to me. It's not adding up to me.
spk_0
Claim to the government is manufacturing the evidence against the current suspect. There's
spk_0
someone named Rob O'Neal. He's a man who killed Osama bin Laden. Thank you, Lord, for that. But he
spk_0
believes that the lone gunman theory is inaccurate. He believes that there was that this guy had help.
spk_0
Subclaim one. So O'Neal initially calls 170 yard shot with a 30 odd six rifle easy for a sniper
spk_0
or hunter. But later questions why an untrained 22 year old would take a neck shot. Same. You don't
spk_0
take a neck shot because you missed. He implies the precision hitting Kirk's neck is suspicious for
spk_0
an amateur suggesting possible training or an alternative explanation. He says that the shot
spk_0
distance is within range for a hunting rifle with a scope, his sniper experience where O'Neal
spk_0
suggests a neck shot are accidental, not intentional for non professionals. Okay, so he just
spk_0
doesn't think it adds up there. But here's our fact check. It is possible. I wouldn't even I wouldn't
spk_0
even go so far as to say plausible. I think that's even like a little bit too much. It's possible,
spk_0
but not conclusive. A 30 odd six rifle with a modern scope as the one that was recovered can
spk_0
accurately hit a target at about 142 yards. While challenging for an untrained shooter, the suspect
spk_0
did have experience. We know that he trained with his father growing up. There are a lot of pictures
spk_0
with guns. In fact, Wall Street Journal has this picture of the suspect with a very large gun.
spk_0
And so it is totally possible. It's also possible that he was aiming for the head and that he
spk_0
jerked the gun and that he actually missed that he didn't actually mean to hit him and the neck.
spk_0
And if he had practiced this, if he had done a lot of target practicing, which it does seem like
spk_0
that was something that was very much a part of his upbringing, it seems that it's totally possible.
spk_0
And so he just doesn't think it seems like Robynale just doesn't think that this guy could have
spk_0
done it on his own and that this was something that was maybe a little bit more professional.
spk_0
Subclaimed two people are saying that the wound appearance of Charlie and the shirt movement just
spk_0
doesn't fit with this guy being on a roof 175 yards away. So O'Neill disputes that the official
spk_0
narrative that the visible wound was an entry wound. He disputes that claiming it looks like an
spk_0
exit wound based on his own combat experience. He said an entry wound doesn't look like that.
spk_0
He says video footage showing the neck wound and shirt movement just don't line up.
spk_0
He disputes the assertion that Kirk wasn't wearing body armor. He said bullets don't deflect that way.
spk_0
But we do know from Andrew Colvin that he was not wearing body armor that day.
spk_0
And Andrew Colvin said on September 20th in an ex post he said that he wanted to
spk_0
address some of the discussion about the lack of an exit wound. He said I just spoke with
spk_0
the surgeon who worked on Charlie in the hospital. He said the bullet absolutely should have gone
spk_0
through which is very normal for a high powered high velocity round. I've seen wounds from
spk_0
this caliber many times and they always just go through everything. This would have taken a
spk_0
moose or two down in elk, etc. But it didn't go through Charlie's body. Stop it. It was an absolute
spk_0
miracle that someone else didn't get killed. His bone was so healthy and the density was so
spk_0
impressive that he's like the man of steel. I should it should have gone through and through. It
spk_0
likely would have killed those standing behind him too. In the end the corner did find the bullet
spk_0
just beneath the skin. So even in death Charlie managed to save the lives of those around him.
spk_0
Remarkable miraculous. Now some people just aren't buying that but I don't have a reason not to buy
spk_0
that. I don't have I don't have any reason to doubt. Of course Andrew Colvin. I totally believe him
spk_0
but then also what he's saying that the corner said and that the surgeon said. And of course I
spk_0
believe it's possible for God to do anything. And he's saying it's miraculous and miraculous means
spk_0
that it goes beyond reason or even like the laws of physics. And so I have no reason to believe
spk_0
that this is untrue and that there was some other kind of wound there. And also like we've talked
spk_0
to people who are actually there like Frank Turek. He saw the wound. He saw what happened. He was there.
spk_0
And I've talked to him and many of you have seen what he has said publicly and describing exactly
spk_0
what happened. And I trust him. I trust Frank Frank Turek who has described the wound and what was
spk_0
going on in the car and how they were trying to stop the bleeding and all of that. And there's a
spk_0
reason why Charlie died so immediately. There's another claim here about the security failures that
spk_0
people just aren't buying. And we'll get into that in a second. Let me go ahead and tell you about
spk_0
an expenser. And that is good ranchers. We love good ranchers in our home. It's so good.
spk_0
We rely on it almost every night. Our kids love the chicken. We just bake the plain chicken
spk_0
breasts in the oven. So good. Really healthy. Love that it all comes from an American farmer ranch.
spk_0
I made some green beans over the weekend. We went to a little Sunday school party and I used my
spk_0
good ranchers apple would bake in in the green beans. And if you don't make your green beans with
spk_0
good ranchers bacon, what are you doing? It's so good. It's the best way to make vegetables with
spk_0
bacon and good ranchers makes that really easy and really good. And all of their meat,
spk_0
including their bacon comes from an American farm or ranch. If you go to goodm ranchers.com
spk_0
and you use my code Allie, you'll get $40 off. And you'll get an extra pack of meat added to your
spk_0
subscription for life. It is such a good deal. They'll also be at share of the arrows. Go to good
spk_0
ranchers.com use code Allie good ranchers.com code Allie.
spk_0
Okay, so this is sub claim three security failures rooftop oversight. O'Neill questioned why
spk_0
the rooftops weren't secured, especially after what happened in Butler, Pennsylvania with Trump.
spk_0
So here is our fact check on that. So Charlie security team as turning point has said over and
spk_0
over again, as I have experienced because I've spoken at so many turning point events over the years,
spk_0
they are top notch. I've been to a lot of events with different levels of security. And I could tell
spk_0
you not every organization and not every event has the kind of security that the turning point does.
spk_0
Every time I was at a turning point event, I would have one or two security guards with me at all
spk_0
times from the moment I left my hotel room to on stage to walking around no matter what until I got
spk_0
into my car and I got on my way to the airport. I was covered by security guard, not every organization does
spk_0
that. They are like no nonsense guys. And again, I've seen all different levels and they were always
spk_0
my favorite because I just knew that I was cared for. They weren't going to mess around and you could
spk_0
tell that they were always assessing every threat. And man, that was times a hundred for Charlie,
spk_0
which was their principal, the guy that they loved, the guy that they knew if they were doing that for
spk_0
me a random person. I'm telling you, they were on top of security for Charlie. Now what happened in
spk_0
this case according to Tyler Boyer, who again is the head of turning point action has been with
spk_0
turning point from the beginning is that it was not a failure of turning point security who did
spk_0
everything that they possibly could to secure it. They had their own drone program. And actually
spk_0
the city where this happened had their own drone program. But unfortunately, the drone was the drone
spk_0
idea, I should say the drone proposal was shot down by the campus, not literally shot down, but they
spk_0
said no, you can't use drones. Tyler Boyer said on X, we have our own drone program shot down
spk_0
by campus police or in police has a state of the art program. The question I have is why the campus
spk_0
police didn't use it. According to ABC News, Utah Valley University's outdoor courtyard where
spk_0
Kirk showed up on September 10th to debate students was surrounded by several tall buildings leaving
spk_0
Kirk vulnerable. That was made all the more potent because campus police didn't fly a drone to
spk_0
monitor rooftops or coordinate with local law enforcement to secure the event. It deployed only
spk_0
six officers from a force that was already small for a campus size. There were no bag checks or
spk_0
nettles detectors. So obviously like there are a lot of things. A lot of steps that could have been
spk_0
taken. They could have said no, no outside events after Butler, Pennsylvania. They could have said no,
spk_0
you're not allowing anyone into this area until they go through now the detector. The drone probably
spk_0
could have saved Charlie Kirk's life. There was a lot going on here, but Charlie had been in the
spk_0
lion's den in a lot of different places. He had been in much more progressive and dangerous places
spk_0
than this. So I don't know, maybe some security, the local police, campus police, whatever, maybe they
spk_0
just didn't think that it was that it was that big of a threat. They said that they didn't see
spk_0
any credible threats. Obviously they were wrong about that. And that is part of why we are where we are
spk_0
today. I don't find this to be suspicious. Human beings are fallible. They make mistakes. They do
spk_0
wrong things. Maybe there were nefarious motives. I don't know. Behind the police forces there
spk_0
who didn't allow or the campus police that didn't allow them to have the drone program. I don't
spk_0
know, but I don't think this is all part of some secret grand scheme. That means that the suspect
spk_0
isn't really the suspect again. I'm just not seeing the connection there. And then we also have
spk_0
this claim that there's been a sketchy handling of the crime scene. There's this video going around
spk_0
where it looks like the college UVU is tearing up the crime scene. So it's six.
spk_0
Okay, so you can see that they're kind of like painting it. They look like they're maybe laying
spk_0
Kant. Now it looks like they're just painting it. And so some people are saying, oh my goodness,
spk_0
they're messing up this crime scene. They're trying to cover something up. But the truth is,
spk_0
you can see in this picture right here, we've got this full screen. The scene of the crime was
spk_0
roped off while the authorities were investigating it. This picture is from September 11th that you're
spk_0
seeing the day after the murder. And so they probably got everything that they needed. And they
spk_0
probably told the campus, hey, you can't do anything. You can't reconstruct anything here until we
spk_0
do what we need to do. And so I have no reason to believe that they were covering up any evidence
spk_0
or that there was anything nefarious going on there. I mean, at this point, it's been a while
spk_0
since Charlie was murdered. And I assume that federal authorities have gotten everything that
spk_0
they needed because remember the gun and where the guy was actually on the roof. That was not where
spk_0
they are reconstructing. I'm sure already got everything they needed from where Charlie was actually
spk_0
shot. And then there's another claim here. And this is our last claim for this segment that
spk_0
there was overly convenient evidence left by the suspect. There was a note left under the
spk_0
suspect's keyboard photographed by his romantic partners. And I had the opportunity to take out
spk_0
Charlie Kirk. And I'm going to take it. The text exchanged with his partner post shooting where
spk_0
Robinson allegedly confessed that he had enough of Kirk's hatred. And that he had been playing
spk_0
the attack over over a week. He also used some words like vehicle, which people claimed, okay,
spk_0
no, no, you know, 20-year-old talks like this. This is just too weird. This is clearly the feds
spk_0
creating these texts. I don't know in order to make you think that this is the suspect. And I
spk_0
read the text and I did think they were super awkward. I thought they were two on the nose. I didn't
spk_0
think that it sounded like a 20-something would text something like this. And that the like
spk_0
trans person on the other side was so innocent and so like, oh my goodness, what do you, I thought it
spk_0
was, I did think it was weird. But then I thought I saw a video going around and actually I'll play it.
spk_0
And it's of this suspect calling a car a vehicle. And then I thought, you know what? He kind of
spk_0
talks like this. Here it is. And then it struck me. These two people may very well be on the
spk_0
autism spectrum. And they may talk awkwardly. Like they may be socially awkward. They may say things
spk_0
that you would think like a typical 20-something wouldn't say they may actually talk like that. But
spk_0
even if it is the thefts, like even if these texts are fake, I still think that this is the guy.
spk_0
I think that we have sufficient evidence, sufficient photographs, sufficient evidence of his
spk_0
discord and Reddit history to say, yeah, this guy, he didn't like Charlie Kirk. And he was a radical
spk_0
and he had been radicalized. And probably living with the so-called trans person was radicalizing.
spk_0
He had gun training. I don't see any reason to believe that this is not the person. He does look like
spk_0
the pictures that were released of the suspect that came down off the roof. I don't understand
spk_0
when people are claiming that he doesn't look like that. He does look like that. So until I see
spk_0
true evidence to the contrary, I just, sorry, I don't believe that it was anyone else.
spk_0
And I don't believe that the government is like covering up for Israel. Again, I just haven't
spk_0
seen evidence of that. All right, we got some questions to ask. We got some things to remember when
spk_0
we're looking at anything or assessing any theory. Let me tell you about our next sponsor first.
spk_0
It's pre-born. Let me tell you this really amazing story. Victoria was a young mom.
spk_0
As she was scared, she was confused. She was desperate when she walked into her local
spk_0
plant parenthood. She was handed in abortion pill. But almost immediately after taking the pill,
spk_0
she knew that she had made a mistake. She regretted it. She didn't want to do that. The weight of her
spk_0
guilt was so crushing. She even thought of just ending her own life. She had just ended the life
spk_0
of her child. And she didn't want to live anymore. But by God's grace, instead of just staying
spk_0
alone and desperate, she reached out for help. And that search led her to a pre-born network
spk_0
clinic where truth broke through. There, the loving staff gave her immediate care, gave her the abortion
spk_0
reversal pill helped save not only her baby's life, but her own. So we have to remember that in a
spk_0
culture that is drowning in deceit, that truth can save lives, that true clarity, that true
spk_0
courage, that love, that grace, that understanding, but a relentless commitment to life can actually
spk_0
save lives. And it can also share the gospel with people who desperately need their souls to be
spk_0
saved by Jesus too. You can be a part of this incredible work. This network of clinic that's
spk_0
offering the abortion reversal pill that's offering free sonograms, so many free tools for pregnant
spk_0
moms and crisis. You can be a part of saving those lives. When you donate just $28 to pre-born,
spk_0
you cover the cost of a life saving ultrasound. Maybe that's what you can donate today. Maybe you
spk_0
can donate it once a month. Maybe you can donate $2.80. Maybe you can donate $28,000. Whatever your
spk_0
most generous gift is, give that. Go to pre-born.com slash alley. Make your gift today pre-born.com slash alley.
spk_0
Here are some questions to ask. Whenever you're hearing anyone, my self included make claims and make
spk_0
a case for something. Okay, you got to ask these questions. What are the motivations of this person?
spk_0
What are the motivations behind their narrative? Consider why someone is promoting this particular
spk_0
line of thinking. Are they seeking truth? That's a good thing. Or do they have ulterior motives?
spk_0
Like trying to perpetuate continued resentment towards a person or towards an entity that they
spk_0
feel resentment toward or maybe for some people it's attention or power. Whatever it is, there's a lot
spk_0
of people, I especially see a lot of people making all kinds of posts on Instagram that clearly
spk_0
their theories can be poked through with just a little bit of critical thinking, but this has
spk_0
garnered a lot of engagement for them. So it's very difficult when someone, when something gets you
spk_0
a lot of engagement to stop on the basis of morality and ethics. It's very difficult. What evidence
spk_0
have they presented? This is the big one. This is the one that I want you to ask over and over
spk_0
again to me and every single person that you follow or listen to. What evidence has this person
spk_0
presented? Look for concrete, verifiable evidence. Are the claims backed up with data documents,
spk_0
first-hand accounts, or are they speculative? And not just for the claims they're presenting,
spk_0
but the connections between the claims that they're presenting. Are they just making a bunch of
spk_0
claims and then leaving it up to you to speculate and to bring all of those things together? See,
spk_0
that's the difference again in conspiracy theory and critical thinking. Do they cite credible
spk_0
sources? Evaluate whether the sources are reputable, transparent, authoritative, are they vague,
spk_0
are they constantly anonymous? Are they obviously biased? Is the narrative logically consistent? Does
spk_0
it rely on contradictory claims or leaps of faith? That's a good question. You've got to think
spk_0
really hard about these things. I think one of the biggest problems that we have is outsourcing
spk_0
our critical thinking to podcasters and influencers. I don't want you to do that. I don't want you to
spk_0
do that with me. I don't want you to do that with anyone. In fact, as much as I love helping people
spk_0
and giving words to their arguments and beliefs, sometimes I'll get messages like what should I
spk_0
think about this or what should I say to that? I'm like, you should know. You should know you should
spk_0
be able to ask questions. You should be able to think through what someone is saying. At least
spk_0
get to the point of being able to poke holes in their statement. Typically, it's about some claim
spk_0
that a professing liberal Christian is making that is so obviously untrue. I'll get a question
spk_0
from a strong believer. Well, gosh, this is compelling. What do you think about this? Honestly,
spk_0
I just want to say, you know, what do you think about it? You think before you ask me,
spk_0
and this is a good rule of thumb. Before you ask me, before you ask anyone, you think about it first.
spk_0
And you try to dig through it before you outsource your thinking to someone else.
spk_0
Does the narrative align with observable reality? So, test the claims against known facts. Do they
spk_0
require dismissing large amounts of evidence or common sense to be believable? Do you have to
spk_0
suspend what you know to be true in order to believe this person's connections to their
spk_0
presenting to you? What is the fruit of the narrative that they are presenting? Does believing
spk_0
or spreading this theory foster fear, paranoia, chaos, or does it promote better understanding
spk_0
and a better grasp of the truth, evaluate its spiritual and practical outcomes? And I also
spk_0
want to talk to you about nosticism. I think it's really important to know the context of
spk_0
these kinds of narratives and context around true conspiracies. Nosticism emphasizes secret elite
spk_0
knowledge that supposedly reveals like hidden truths about the world that could only be accessed
spk_0
in a special way. So, according to Liginear, nosticism was a prominent movement that grew up around
spk_0
the church in the second century. It also has a pre-Christian origin. It was a cocktail of Persian,
spk_0
Egyptian, Jewish, and Christian ideas with some Greek philosophy thrown in. The word nostic itself
spk_0
means knowing or having knowledge. Having knowledge is a significant part of nosticism to say
spk_0
you are nostic is to say, I know something you don't. I'm in on the secret. I've been enlightened.
spk_0
I'm I've woken up. I'm spiritually on a higher level. And in order for you to access this special
spk_0
knowledge, you have to follow me and you have to enter into this secret door. I mean, this is we
spk_0
see this in the new age. We see this in the self-help, self-love movement. We see this. I would say
spk_0
in the hyper-crunchy world, we also see it in the progressive world that you just have to be
spk_0
woke the way I'm woke. And if you're woke, then I don't really have to tell you the evidence behind
spk_0
these connections because you just you'll just know it because I know it. And I'm going to infuse
spk_0
my secret knowledge into you. That's nosticism. That is pagan cultishness. Okay? And I want to remind you
spk_0
of this passage from Isaiah. That's really important for all of us to remember because the
spk_0
truest thing that is always going on is God's eternal plan of redemption, which is always going off
spk_0
without a hitch. God is never confused. He's never thrown off. He's never wondering what's going on.
spk_0
Full justice and truth will be done and will be revealed in the fullness of time. Does that mean we
spk_0
shouldn't seek truth and justice here today? Of course, we should. I think that's part of the
spk_0
reason we're here on earth, but we have to do it in a way that is logical that is reasonable and
spk_0
that goes more deeply into truth and evidence not away from it. Isaiah 8, 12 through 13, do not
spk_0
call conspiracy. All of this people call conspiracy and do not fear what they fear nor be it and dread,
spk_0
but the Lord of hosts, him you shall honor as holy. Let him be your fear. Let him be your dread.
spk_0
So we should not have the same paranoia and the same fear and the same anxiety that the world does
spk_0
because we know who was ultimately in charge. We know where our hope comes from. So if you're going
spk_0
to seek truth and ask questions, seek truth and ask questions from that place, trusting in the
spk_0
sovereignty of God, trusting in his goodness, not from a place of personal control. Don't
spk_0
exchange the God of Scripture for the God of Self that leads to a very heavy burden of anxiety
spk_0
and always. All right, I've got a completely unrelated hard pill to swallow and it's about our
spk_0
girl Taylor Swift. In just one second, let me go ahead and tell you about our last sponsor and then
spk_0
we'll do that last segment. That's Patriot Mobile, they're America's only Christian conservative
spk_0
wireless provider. So thankful for them. They stand in the gap for all of the things that we believe
spk_0
in and you don't have to worry about them sending your hard earned dollars to left wing causes.
spk_0
They're not doing that. They're supporting the sanctity of life. They're supporting our first
spk_0
and second amendment rights. And so when you make the very easy switch to Patriot Mobile, you are
spk_0
voting with your dollar and that's really important and you don't have to compromise it all on service
spk_0
when you do that. They've got a 100% US based customer service team that makes switching so easy.
spk_0
You can activate in minutes from the comfort of your home, keep your number, keep your phone or you
spk_0
can upgrade. They offer unlimited data plans, mobile hotspots, international road meet, internet
spk_0
backup, so much more. Go ahead, make the switch. Go to patreon mobile dot com slash alley that's

Okay, moms, your daughters should not be listening to Taylor Swift. They should not be. She is not
spk_0
a role model and it actually baffles me that there are Christian moms who will say, well, she's
spk_0
better than Chapel Room or she's better than bad bunny or she's better than I don't know
spk_0
Selena Gomez, whoever, y'all the bar is in hell. If that is our standard, the bar could not be
spk_0
lower. If we are deciding on the righteousness of our kids entertainment choices based on the
spk_0
most degenerate stuff out there, that is not how Christians should be thinking. We are to pursue
spk_0
what is excellent, what is good, what is praiseworthy and Taylor Swift's music at this point is none
spk_0
of those things. Okay, we're excited that she's getting married. I'm excited that she's getting
spk_0
married. We are excited that she has found a man that she can commit to and love. Yeah, we are
spk_0
excited that she is not celebrating being a homosexual like so many pop artists today. Yeah, okay,
spk_0
we can acknowledge all of those things. We can say that maybe she's not is depraved and
spk_0
disturbed as some of the pop artists out there. All right, we can acknowledge all of that.
spk_0
While also acknowledging that she is not pleasing, good, pure praiseworthy and excellent thoughts
spk_0
in our minds and in the minds of our very impressionable daughters. See, it is different.
spk_0
Teenagers listening to Taylor Swift today, then us listening to Taylor Swift when we were a teenager,
spk_0
when we were teenagers because Taylor Swift was a teenager when we were a teenager.
spk_0
She was crying on her guitar. We were crying on our guitar. She was happy, confused and lonely
spk_0
at the same time. We were happy, confused and lonely at the same time. She was 22. I was 20. Okay,
spk_0
so we were in the same life stage. She was talking about this, you know, silly superficial stuff. She
spk_0
was not talking about opening up her thighs to someone who is not a husband. Okay, and that is
spk_0
literally what she is singing about. There is zero reason for you to allow your daughter to be
spk_0
listening to or going to the concert of Taylor Swift. There is a first that came to mind when I was
spk_0
seeing some of the people share about her lyrics, song of Thelma 27. Do not stir up or awaken love
spk_0
until it pleases. The NIV says, do not arouse or awaken love until it's so desires.
spk_0
And I think it's so important to make sure to do everything that we can to keep our daughters,
spk_0
to keep our kids on the right track spiritually, mentally and emotionally. Like, I think about the
spk_0
mistake that I made when I was a teenager and reading smut, I mean, it wasn't nearly as bad as,
spk_0
you know, the stuff that you see today. It wasn't like explicit 50 shades of gray, but a lot of
spk_0
in you and a lot of like hot and heavy implication about what was going on behind closed doors.
spk_0
That kind of twilight stuff I should not have been reading as a 16, 17 year old alone in my room
spk_0
because it creates a new desire that cannot be fulfilled in a holy way. And purposely consuming
spk_0
content that creates any whether you're an adult, but especially as a teenager that creates in you,
spk_0
a desire, a longing that may be natural, but cannot be fulfilled in a way that is honoring to
spk_0
God is not good. And we as parents are called to steward our children. We can't control them.
spk_0
And I'm not saying we put them in a bubble, but we also don't say, here, honey, this thing that is
spk_0
degenerate and that is encouraging sexual impurity and immodesty and self service and self obsession
spk_0
and sexual promiscuity like, yeah, listen to this. Let's be entertained by the sins that Christ
spk_0
died for. That's not good Christianity. That's not good motherhood. That's my hard felt a swallow.
