Mat Staver is founder & chairman of Liberty Counsel.  Mat is a constitutional attorney with three landmark cases before the U.S. Supreme Court.  He’s an author and the host of the radio broadcasts Faith & Freedom and Freedom’s Call and the TV broadcast Freedom Alive.

Charlie Kirk, 31, promoter of conservative politics and founder of Turning Point USA, was assassinated yesterday as he was struck by a single bullet while speaking on the campus of Utah Valley University.  At the time of this broadcast, it was reported that images of the shooter had been released as the manhunt was still underway.

Mat began by reminding listeners that this killing took place, not because of anything Charlie did to anyone, but because of his views.  Jim and Mat expanded on this thought as they also discussed the following:

  • An MSNBC analyst implied that this assassination was justified as though Charlie, because of his words, was guilty of causing his own assassination.
  • Charlie’s messages engaged young people via respectful, back-and-forth dialogue, designed to get them to think.
  • A feminist website that allegedly paid witches to curse Charlie Kirk just two days before the shooting took place. 
  • How this issue highlights the root problem and that’s the spiritual battle we face as individuals and as a nation.
  • The divide in our nation was shown on the House floor as Republicans and Democrats argued over whether a spoken prayer or silent time was the best way to honor Charlie Kirk. 

Usama Dakdok is founder of the Straight Way of Grace Ministry.  He’s the speaker on the daily radio broadcast, Revealing the Truth About Islam.  Born and raised in Egypt, Usama learned about Islam just as every other student does in a Muslim country.  He also studied for a university degree in Egypt which included the study of Sharia (Islamic law).  He first came to America in 1992.  With his knowledge of Islam he founded The Straight Way of Grace Ministry.  Usama speaks fluent Arabic and has translated the Quran into English.  He’s the author of Exposing the Truth about the Qur’an and Exposing the Truth About Jihad and the booklets, The Violent Truth about Islam and The Straight Way to Eternal Life.  For many years Usama has traveled the country to equip the church to minister to Muslims and to warn Americans about the deceptive methods being used that lead many into the cult of Islam.

The U.S. was hit 24 years ago by Islamic terrorism.  Since that time we’ve been hearing more and more about Islamic proliferation around the nation, all centering around the lie that Islam is a religion of peace, which Usama debunks.  Usama also addressed the following:

  • Muslims that see the Charlie Kirk assassination as a victory.
  • Mayor Eric Adams of New York City wants to give Mohammed’s birthday holiday status.
  • A 10 million dollar mega-mosque planned for the Bronx.
  • Some Houston businesses warned to stop selling products that Allah hates.
