About
Dr. Peter Hammond of Frontline Fellowship reacts with shock and sadness to the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk. Hammond, who knew Kirk personally from his student days, describes him as a profoundly influential, intelligent, and dedicated Christian who played a vital role in mobilizing young voters for Donald Trump.
The discussion details the professional nature of the killing—a single, long-range shot from an escaped shooter—pointing to a funded assassination. Hammond explores the potential motives, highlighting death threats Kirk received from the "radical communist left," the LGBTQ community, and notably, from the Ukrainian government due to his vocal opposition to U.S. funding of the war in Ukraine.
