VP Vance blames left-wing extremism for Charlie Kirk’s killing, calls for unity and accountability.

Vice President JD Vance, honoring slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk on the Charlie Kirk Show, called for national unity but stated it’s impossible while the left embraces political violence, citing that 24% of very liberal Americans view the death of a political opponent as acceptable. He urged the public to report those celebrating Kirk’s murder, criticized media smears, and pledged to use DOJ and DHS resources to disrupt left-wing extremist networks. Vance, who hosted the episode from the White House alongside top Trump officials, emphasized accountability and truth while facing criticism for labeling left-wing extremism as a dominant threat, with some calling his rhetoric divisive and dangerous.
