there’s a YouTube channel I watch on a semi-regular basis, Zach Costello. He’s an interesting guy, very opinionated, and for my entertainment, clearly a conspiracy theorist. He has been openly doubtful of the official story of Charlie Kirk’s murder last year and spends an inordinate amount of time on his channel, discussing the case directly, or the machinations of turning Point, Kirk’s company now run by his widow.

It’s time for someone to say it, just in case anyone is unsure. Charlie Kirk is dead. There. I said it. It’s horrible what happened to him and hopefully, his murderer will see justice.

If we could be identified with any belief, it would be a Christian nation because out of the 350 million people that live here, some 66% identify as Christian. That’s 231 million Christians. More than any other country in the world.

I often wonder if people that make certain claims concerning other people have ever stopped to look in the mirror? It’s especially interesting to me when the person(s) making the claims (or accusations) don’t even know the people they are referring to and it doesn’t seem to bother them in the least that their attitude might be a little hypocritical.
