Haley Carney
Hello and welcome to Nightly Scroll. I'm Haley Carney. I think we were a few seconds early tonight. Imagine that. I mean on my clock it's still 5:59. So I think your clock is a little late in there. We're all off, but it just hit six o' clock on my clock out here. Who knows what clock is right? I don't know what's true, what's fake, I don't know. But I hope everyone had a nice weekend. And welcome to the show. If you are watching live on Rumble. Hello, Hello. Welcome to all my homies in the chat. I can't wait to chit chat with all of you. If you are watching on Facebook or X, come on over to Rumble after a little bit. That's the only place you can watch the show in full. Rumble.com Haley will bring you to the Bongino Report channel where you can subscribe so you never miss a show. And of course you could listen on Apple podcasts and Spotify later on. Well, Charlie Kirk's memorial and celebration of life was larger than life yesterday. Much like he was and much like his legacy. It is all very, very fitting. And I've got some highlights from yesterday's big event. Plus more updates from the investigation into the assassination and President Trump's message to AG Pam Bondi from over the weekend. Plus a man fired gunshots into an ABC affiliate after Jimmy Kimmel was suspended. But Jimmy returns to the airwaves tomorrow night. That was a very quick slap on the wrist. Disney has announced we'll get into that as well. Plus Christians on TikTok are preparing for the Rapture. They say it takes place tomorrow. All that and so much more on this episode of Nightly Scroll. Well, if you watched the memorial yesterday, you saw the massive, massive crowds, but those crowds started lining up. This is a video from Savannah Hernandez who said this was about 6am so people were lined up for hours and hours and hours before the event was supposed to start. All trying to get in because they knew that State Farm Stadium was they had a limited capacity. I thought that the capacity was about 63,000, but apparently according to Turning Point, they reported that 70,000 filled that stadium capacity, and then 20,000 more attendees were in overflow venues. That is just the people who attended the memorial in person. In person. Now, Turning Point USA predicted that over 100 million people were streaming. And that doesn't include. Because, by the way, Turning Point was streaming on Rumble. They were streaming on X, but other networks were also streaming this and taking it live as well. Um, Fox News, even cnn, I heard, was taking this live. So, Andrew, am I going to pronounce that wrong? Colvitt? Is that how you say that? Andrew Colvitt. He's the executive producer of the Charlie Kirk show and also a Turning Point USA spokesman said this. Our production and streaming partners tracked over 100 million overall streams for today's tribute to Charlie. This is just what they know about. It's likely much larger. Over 100 million people just heard the gospel proclaimed again and again by speaker after speaker. Truly remarkable for Charlie. And that is true because, like I said, I mean, that's just the streaming numbers. But think of how many people were broadcasting this on broadcast television as well. So, to his point, lots of people heard the good word yesterday, which is very, very cool. But of course, there were some protesters. If we could pull up this protest video. I was trying to read what some of these protest signs said, and one of them says something about sin, truth equals love. But there is one woman in the front, and her sign says something like, make the. This one right here in the front. The sign said, you know, make the memorial public and televise it. So that just goes to show how stupid these people are, that not only was it open to the public, you could sign up on TP usa. If she was so concerned about making it public, I mean, she could have just gotten in the other line and gotten it in and seen it herself, or she could have seen it on any one of the streaming platforms or on tv. So, again, these people, they don't really have all of their brain cells. But anyway, you know, who was on top of their game yesterday was Secret Service and all the security and law enforcement that was there to secure the. This massive venue and make sure that everyone there was safe, including the president himself and many people in his cabinet. So if we could see this. This is Secret Service members and law enforcement on the roof there. They have their. They're, like, waving, and, you know, they're kind of like hyping up the crowd a little bit. It seems like they're doing kind of like a wave, letting people know that they're the good guys on the roof. You know, there are some bad guys on the roofs, but these are some good guys on the roof. And all the people in the crowd waving at them and, you know, thanking them for keeping them all safe, which is very nice. And of course, you know, if you watch this show, you watch my Thursday night segments with Scott Bryson, who is former Secret Service, and we were talking about, how do you put on an event like this safely? How can you have a political speaker and protect them these days? Because on both sides of the aisle, certainly it seems like conservatives have a target on their back as of late, but if anyone were to speak in, in public in a setting like this, I mean, how do you keep people safe? And we talked about the prospect of just putting everyone behind bulletproof glass from now on. And there was bulletproof glass. You could see this post from yesterday. And if you watched, of course, you notice the bulletproof glass around the podium. Again, not saying that it prevents all bad things, right? I mean, if there's someone who wants to do harm, you can, you know, take someone out when they're walking on the stage or off the stage. So again, it's not totally foolproof, but with everything that they had going on with Secret Service on the roof and they had law enforcement, I believe in, inside and even people in plain clothes. So certainly everyone was safe. And it went off without a hitch. As we know, the event was extremely well done. The Turning Point USA staff pulled this off with love, with hard work, passion, determination, and the grace of God. Heavy on the God part, because almost every speech gave glory to God, invoked the gospel messages of faith, even from unsuspecting speakers like Don Jr. Who said, you know, he's better posting. He was kind of joking that he's better known for shit posting on Instagram and posting memes than he is for his faith. But he did mention faith. And even Elon Musk was tweeting this. He said, forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, signifying a. An openness to the faith and an openness to just the. The Holy Spirit moving in this room. And that's what everyone was saying. And, you know, Elon Musk was also famously seen sitting next to Donald Trump for a little bit. So they had this massive falling out where Elon Musk called Donald Trump a pedophile. And, you know, this one's on drugs. And what. I mean, it was just crazy. We remember that falling out from a few months ago. But it seems like you Know, at least for Charlie Kirk's memorial, they were able to put their differences aside and kind of come together again, signifying maybe a reunification between the two. But also just a very sweet moment from the. The memorial Yesterday. Everyone remembers DJ Daniel. I love DJ Daniel. He's the 13 year old cancer survivor who was. He was at the rnc, I believe, or maybe it was the joint. I always get this confused. The joint session of Congress.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
The joint session, yeah.
Haley Carney
And he just, oh, my gosh, he has this love for law enforcement. And of course President Trump made him an honorary Secret Service agent. So of course he was there because he's there to keep everyone safe. And he had this message about ending violence.
Caller or Viewer Commentator
Listen, honestly, based on who did this, that was wrong, because he didn't do nothing wrong. Nobody.
Haley Carney
And did you listen to Charlie Kirk's podcast? What were your thoughts on him?
Caller or Viewer Commentator
They were very great, but I just don't see why somebody would kill him. That's just wrong. They just need to, really need to stop the violence. Same thing in Texas.
Haley Carney
Just have to stop the violence. And DJ Daniel was not only spreading the word about stopping violence, he also stopped to tie former North Carolina Congressman Madison Cawthorn's shoes. Watch this. It says, this great Secret Service agent is selfless. Look at them hugging. Isn't that so sweet?
Co-host or Guest Analyst
You know, one of the neat things, the music behind here, it's a song called the Blessing, and him just reaching down and tying his shoes. I'm sure that Madison felt that goodness.
Haley Carney
You know, it's really sweet. It was really, really sweet moment. So I just wanted to share that with everyone. You know, these are the moments that weren't caught on the stream itself. Right. So maybe you didn't catch that. But on social media, these things, these other stories get to be told, which I think is pretty cool. And I think Charlie would have been very, very proud to see such a strong showing of faith by the sheer amount of people who showed up to honor his life, the little acts of service like tying shoes. And of course, all the people who spoke Jesus's name and the word of God in their speeches. And anyone who was there said that they could feel the Holy Spirit moving in that room, which is undoubtable. We know that where there are people gathered in his name, he will be there. And I think out of everyone, we saw the hol spir, the Holy Spirit moving through Erica Kirk. So watch this.
Erica Kirk
That young man, that young man on the cross, our Savior said, father, forgive them, for they not know what they do. That man.
Haley Carney
That young man.
Erica Kirk
I forgive him.
Caller or Viewer Commentator
It's.
Erica Kirk
I forgive him because it was what Christ did and is what Charlie would do. The answer to hate is not hate. The answer we know from the gospel is love and always love. Love for our enemies and love for those who persecute does.
Haley Carney
That is not easy to do. Eleven days after your husband is senselessly murdered. To forgive the crazed lunatic who did it is not easy to do. But she is right, because that is exactly how Jesus wants us to respond. And she provided a lesson in forgiveness and faith that I think most people are not strong enough to do emotionally or in their faith. And that just goes to show how godly of a woman Erica Kirk really is. And people online are talking about, how can she do this? She's so strong. Well, yes, she is strong, but she has God within her, so she will not fail. And, you know, maybe we're not all there, right, in our faith. Maybe we're not all there when it comes to forgiveness. Maybe we're all still harboring a little bit of anger about what happened, confusion about what happened. You've heard me talk to you about the transformative results that people see after using Genucel. And you know, I've told you about the stories of all these people who use Genicel and have great results. I use Genucel and I use. I have great results as well.

Today, seed oils make up about 20% of the average American's daily calories. That is disgusting. And recent Studies have linked seed oils to metabolic health issues and inflammation in the body. Well, Mazda Chips decided to do something about it. They created a tasty, delicious tortilla chip with just three ingredients and no seed oils. So not only do they eliminate the bad stuff, they taste great, they are filling. And the best part is you don't get that heavy, sluggish feeling after you eat them.

And certainly President Trump showed a little bit more of a human side. And I think a lot of people can also identify with this as well. So take a listen to this.
Donald Trump
In that private moment on his dying day, we find everything we need to know about who Charlie Kirk truly was. He was a missionary with a noble spirit and a great, great purpose. He did not hate his opponents. He wanted the best for them. That's where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponent and I don't want the best for them. I'm sorry. I am sorry, Erica. But now Erica can talk to me and the whole group and maybe they can convince me that that's not right. But I can't stand my opponent.
Haley Carney
You know, I love him, I love President Trump, but sometimes he goes off the rails a little bit sometimes. And by sometimes, I mean, most of the time he goes off script a little bit. And I think it's hard for President Trump to turn off the rally President Trump and turn down that dial. And I was hoping, like, I was really, really hoping, like, stick to a script, don't turn this into a rally. Like, just make it about Charlie. And you know, he started talking about or teasing this Make America healthy again announcement today. He was also talking about tariffs. And while I agree that Charlie Kirk did have a lot to do with the MAGA movement, the Maha movement and all of these things working in the government, I was hoping that maybe he would just, you know, talk about Charlie and then save all the other political stuff for you know, today. And he did. He made that announcement, the Maha announcement today. He kind of teased that something was coming and it was about autism. And here's what he had to say about Tylenol and its effects on autism. Watch.
Donald Trump
Because when you go from 20,000 to 10,000 and then you go to 12, you know, there's something artificial. They're taking something. And by the way, I think I can say that there are certain groups of people that don't take vaccines and don't take any pills that have no autism. That have no autism. Does that tell you something that's currently. Is that a correct statement, by the way?
Haley Carney
There are some studies that suggest.
Caller or Viewer Commentator
Yeah, with the Amish, for example.
Donald Trump
The Amish, virtually, I heard none. See, Bobby wants to be very careful with what he says, and he should, but I'm not so careful with what I say. But you have certain groups, the Amish as an example, they have essentially no autism.
Haley Carney
It is something to think about and it is something to look at. And I am excited that we have a, an administration that is looking at these things, looking at these patterns, because there are a lot of drugs that cause so many different things. And, you know, we were talking about this last week when HHS Secretary RFK Jr. Was announcing that they're going to make all the big pharma ads list all of the side effects and all of the, you know, potential issues, things that can go wrong. You know, basically all the fine print that used to be fine print is going to be out there for you in these advertisements, which we were joking. I mean, they're not going to have enough time in the advertisement to get through all the, the side effects. But, you know, I am for transparency, but I just know that these big pharma giants are shaken in their boots because, you know, Tylenol and people who work at Tylenol and other people in big Pharma, they know that their days might be numbered. If I had to guess, there are going to be some lawsuits that take place because of this. But I say go for it. And we know that this administration is not afraid of a lawsuit. They are not afraid to stand up for truth and for science and research. And, and I am very excited to see what happens with this. And basically what he was saying is Tylenol is going to be strongly recommended that women limit their use during pregnancy unless it is completely medically necessary. And for years, pregnant women were set, were told that you can use Tylenol. Tylenol is safe, don't use Advil, don't use this, but Tylenol was the one that you could use. It was the painkiller that. You know, I have friends who are pregnant right now. They're struggling with migraines and other things, and their doctors have told them Tylenol is fine. And my friend was just telling me, you know, and this was before this announcement came out, but this was kind of. There were grumblings about the Tylenol thing in the last week or so. And my friend told me, I'm not going to take Tylenol anymore. I'm going to struggle through my migraines. They are horrible. But it is not, you know, I'm not going to risk the autism, risk for my future son, daughter, et cetera. And I said, yeah, unfortunately, like, if they can't provide evidence that there's a safe option for women and safe for the baby, but then it's not worth it. But, you know, there are a lot of drugs that are, that are sold to or billed to pregnant women as healthy. And they are not like, Tylenol is not the first drug that women have used. You know, even my mom and people in my mom's generation, they were told to use certain things that are not good. Our grandparents generation, I mean, we keep learning what's good and what's bad. And we have to adjust when we get new information. So this is what we're doing, right? We're adjusting when we have new information and we're shaking down these companies for all the details and we're doing the research. So I say go for it. And better to be safe than sorry. If I was pregnant right now, I would not take Tylenol. And, you know, you just use. It's. You might have a headache, you might have some other aches and pains, but it is not worth the risk. And I think a lot of women are waking up to this and I'm just, I'm glad that we have an administration that's, that's really sounding the alarm on this. But, you know, President Trump speaking yesterday and, you know, Elon Musk in attendance. You know, the left calls this a Nazi rally. They called Charlie Kirk's memorial a Nazi rally because they believe that all this, you know, they think this is just like religious weirdness. I saw all these videos online saying that we're going through like this mass religious psychosis. I, I wouldn't characterize it as that. I think people are really finding the faith because Charlie was a mouthpiece and people will list were listening to him and people are still Listening to him, and his words are not going to die. His message is not going to die. And I think a lot of people are realizing they're picking up Bibles or going to church for the first time in years. And, you know, the left was calling it a. A Nazi rally. And this Atlantic writer posted this on X, saying that he doesn't feel at home in America anymore. And he posted pictures of the rally or the memorial yesterday. And he said, I've spent half of my adult life living in one foreign country or another, and I don't think I've ever felt so estranged from the surrounding culture as I have or as I am from the aesthetics and sensibilities of this movement. Not even a criticism. I just feel more at home in Greece than these images, which is interesting. If you want to scroll down. Some of the replies were quite interesting. And he continued, he said, this guy, Thomas Chatterton Williams, said, I feel more at home in spots where I can't read the road signs than here. And, you know, people in the comments are saying, okay, so then leave. You know, like, what are you doing here? It's just odd that people don't feel at home when you're watching a memorial service. Why would you. Why would you not feel at home? And someone else, if you could scroll and find it, someone else said, like. I think it was Mark Corian said something about. He was like, let me ask, do you feel this way when you go to, like, a Greek Orthodox vigil, or do you feel more at home when you're at a cafe in Santorini? Like. And that's true. I mean, it's. It was a good call out. But, you know, this is. We don't expect much from people who write at the Atlantic, of course, but I just thought that that was odd that you see a. A show of faith and people mourning at a memorial service. And he just has to say that he doesn't feel at home in our culture anymore. Like, you don't have to feel at home at a. No one really feels at home at a memorial service.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
I think that was part of. Don't you think that that was part of the whole just overall element of the. Of the event, that that made it spiritual? It was a lot of. Well, I mean, you know, a lot of selflessness. People were there for someone else to memorialize the life that that person lived that proclaimed the gospel.
Haley Carney
Yeah.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
You know, so it's like we're. It's not about anything, but about. But about Charlie. So, I mean, I know our country is not used to turning on TV for five hours on a Sunday and watch a memorial. But that should just show you how powerful unification can be in the spirit.
Haley Carney
Totally, 100%. Maybe he would feel more at home if the cities were burning to the ground and, you know, people were looting stores, mom and pop businesses. Like maybe that's where he feels at home.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Isn't that the crazy dysfunction that people have come to feel comfortable in? And then you turn on TV on a Saturday and Chris Paul is singing. And our Secretary of state basically in 90 seconds presents the gospel, Right? Our Secretary of State presents the gospel in 90 seconds. It's like that's a little bit of dichotomy, don't you? I mean, it was a sort of a shock to the. Whoa. You know, to, to us all, but in a good and a needed way, right?
Haley Carney
Yeah, definitely. Yeah. So we didn't riot because that's not how we react. You know, we have vigils, we have candlelight vigils, we have services and we spread the gospel. But you know, Jimmy Kimmel, he was temporarily suspended from his show, Jimmy Kimmel Live last week as we reported, and some crazed leftist shot up an ABC News building in Sacramento. So let's pull up this headline here. This made me laugh. FBI arrests Anti Trump Gunman who Shot ABC Studio after Kimmel's suspension. Isn't that odd why you would be so angry after a, a Jimmy Kimmel suspension that you would go do this? I mean, these are crazed leftists and they use their guns for, for evil. They don't.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
So why is this guy, why is this guy upset? I mean, run it down for me like I'm a, like I'm a five year old. He thinks that Trump, through dialogue got the, the, which is not true. The FCC guy to put pressure on ABC and Disney to get Jimmy Kimmel off the air. That's the narrative that you're hearing from the law said.
Haley Carney
I'll bet they're bringing Jimmy back because of the shooting. I don't think so at all. This was also. This is, it's funny. I feel like people don't really understand. I guess this was maybe like a symbolic shooting of the ABC building, but this was a local ABC affiliate in Sacramento. They are not making decisions about Jimmy Kimmel's future in this building.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
No, totally.
Haley Carney
Like people, I feel like people think that like local Fox stations are connected to Fox News Channel. People think that like all these things are connected and they're owned by different people, they're run by different groups like There's a lot of nuance here that I think other people, like, he probably just saw the ABC sign and was like, you know, I'm mad about Jimmy Kimmel, but he's, you know, barking up the wrong tree.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
I just, I can't get past the simple question. That guy is so pissed about Jimmy getting in the name of like, freedom of speech or oppression or whatever, getting kicked off the air. How do you square that with the circle of. His ratings are down 50% since 2022. Like, is this. To me, it's like, I know Trump runs off the mouth, but like, I would say ABC wouldn't mind getting his show off the books. And maybe that, maybe that was a straw that broke the camel's back when he talked about Charlie. And it just, this is it.
Haley Carney
Like, I think they knew they had to do something in the moment. But even. Yes, last week, was it on Friday. This news happened Friday or Thursday of last week. I don't remember which one it was. But I said, this is probably a slap on the wrist. This is probably a slap on the wrist. And I said, the reason why they said suspended or preempted is because he's probably coming back. And here we are just, you know, six days later and his show is going to be back on the air tomorrow night. But, you know, back to this gunman. He was arrested because you can't, you know, shoot up local TV stations, of course, and he posted bail because he was arrested. This is in California, of course, where they have felon coddling policies and criminals can just go to jail and then they can just get out of jail. They could just pay to get out of jail. And this guy posted $200,000 bail earlier on Saturday. Then he was arrested by the FBI, which is actually hilarious because now he's facing federal charges and he's ineligible for bail. Imagine paying $200,000 bail. You get out of jail and then the FBI swoops in and says, no, I didn't think so. You're going right back to jail and you can't pay your way out. So I love that. But it turns out that this guy on Thursday and Variety reported this, but on Thursday, Variety found an X account that they believe was linked to this gunman. And he was tweeting things about anti Trump and taking out Trump and things like that. He said, what? This is just one of the posts where he said, quote, where is a good heart attack when we need it the most? Please join in my thoughts and prayers for the physical demise of our Fearful leader. Interesting. But yeah. So anyway, whether or not you shoot up the ABC affiliate in Sacramento or not didn't matter. Jimmy Kimmel is back on the air tomorrow. And this is what Disney said in a statement last Wednesday. We made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country. It is decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill timed and thus insensitive. We've spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy and after those conversations we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday. Now, it's still unclear as of this show right now what Next Star and Sinclair are going to do. Because you may remember that Disney decided ABC decided to preempt the show and then Sinclair and nextstar and other broadcasting companies, they have the decision whether or not to carry it or not. And just because ABC is bringing it back doesn't mean that nexstar and Sinclair have to air it necessarily. And maybe there's some contractual agreements that I don't, I'm not privy to. So I don't know, maybe they are contractually obligated to air it. I don't know. But from what I understand, they have the opportunity to say no to Jimmy Kimmel and say no to airing his show again. So we'll have to stay on that and keep you posted. Let me know if there's any updates on that in this hour. Um, but as of taping, that was not the case. So we shall see. But how do you think he's going to address this? Tomorrow night? Of course, his show? I don't know what time his show is, but it's late night so it's got to be later than this. So we'll have to cover it on Wednesday.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
I think they tape it. I was looking at this. I think they tape at 4:00pm I mean, it's in LA, so I think they, they tape in 4:00pm because it's sort of sim live. It's presented live, but it's, it's taped. So I mean like lots of applaud signs, lots of telling the audience to cheer.
Haley Carney
I know, but I. We won't see it before this show tomorrow even.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
No, no, no. Yeah, yeah, correct.
Haley Carney
So we'll have to cover it on Wednesday. But I'm sure he's just going to rail on Trump and I'd be interested to see because, you know, Disney said they're having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy. I'd be interested if they are. I don't know if they're telling him to maybe ease up on it or take it easy or, I don't know.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
I think Jimmy gonna be Jimmy.
Haley Carney
And it's just go full anti Trump.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
I mean, there's nothing that's gonna. He's not gonna meet Culpa, any of that, you know, And I mean. And that's ABC's. You're gonna deal with this like you're bringing him back. And so we'll see.
Haley Carney
And this is what I said last week, too. Bring him back. You know, this was a slap on the wrist. You can't spread misinformation. You learned your lesson. He'll probably have some somewhat of a statement. I'm assuming that ABC might make him air. I don't know. I know that Sinclair said that we're hoping that he donates to TP usa. We hope that he addresses this before we bring him back. So tbd, maybe the show will come back. Sinclair will watch the show and see if it's up to their standards, if they want to bring him back based on how he addresses it. We'll see.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
You honestly think he'll apologize? I don't know. I mean, the chat can maybe weigh in and tell me what they think, but I think he's going to get up there and he's going to talk about oppression, freedom of speech, double down.
Haley Carney
Yeah.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Opposition under a tyrant. And it's going to be par for the course for him.
Haley Carney
I agree. But I wonder if ABC will make him air a statement where he'll say like, well, whatever, he might have to apologize and then he'll just go on his anti Trump rant. People are saying, apologize. Do you guys actually care if he apologizes or not? Like, I don't watch this show and I haven't watched the show in 10 years. So, like, I actually don't care what he does. This is what I was about to say and I forgot. But, you know, bring the show back and let the people decide, you know, because same thing happened with Colbert where Colbert was, you know, they said, we're going to like, see out his contract. He's going to. He's going to do his show until May and then it's going to be done. And there was all this uproar over it and, you know, people stopped caring about Colbert and maybe it'll be, you know, revived when May comes and his show is officially off the air and people will get all mad about it and then everyone's got the attention span of a goldfish. Everyone's going to forget and everyone's going to move on and everyone's going to live their lives without Stephen Colbert on their TV screens. And I think that the same thing might happen for Jimmy Kimmel. Like people are so angry right now because it's like the cool liberal thing to do is to be all like up in arms about this and it plays into their anti Trump narrative and all that stuff. So it works for them. So they get to be all angry and I think they'll move on to the next thing. This is, you know, they were all crazy about the no Kings protest and then they move on to Elon Musk as a Nazi and then it's the take down Tesla and then it's the fight, the oligarchy and then it's this and it's, it's always something. So Jimmy Kimmel is like the current thing that they're pissed about. But I could see all these, like, I think all these leftists signed on to some letter being like, you know, Jennifer Aniston signed on to this letter and all the, whoever else signed on to this, you know, open letter saying, you know, we're upset about this. And maybe that had something to do with their decision to bring him back. I don't know. But I think they care about it right now. They don't care about it forever. I think if his show went away and they make decisions based on ratings and the ratings and the money doesn't make sense because again, this is all a math problem. Everyone's got a bottom line and if Jimmy Kimmel's not doing his part, then it's not going to make sense. I love this meme. I support the current thing. Again, we need a Jimmy Kimmel flag.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
His show is losing money. Colbert show is losing money. I don't, I don't understand why that's, this is the reason that they're not happy with late night. I'm not even sure the whole genre of late night isn't a dying thing.
Haley Carney
Yeah.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
So Jimmy, come back, double down, do what you do. But like at the end of the day, what do you think the percentage are people that sign those letters actually watch his show? I mean, I don't, I don't think anybody, I don't think anybody isn't. That's the problem.
Haley Carney
Do you really think that Jennifer Aniston is watching Jimmy Kimmel live?
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Every negative on that?
Haley Carney
No. Is Meryl Streep watching Jimmy Kimmel live every night?
Co-host or Guest Analyst
I don't think she's up that late.
Haley Carney
No, I think they all care about it. A little bit. Because when they have a movie or a book coming out, they, they get to go on his show and yap about themselves. But other than that, they don't care. They don't care. Anyway, I want to talk about this Trump Truth Social post from over the weekend. This was odd, but he posted this on Saturday night and it was a message to Attorney General Pam Bondi. And it was just Pam Colon, if we could pull this up. Pam. Oh, no, this is a different one. Number 14, you're way ahead of me here.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
We'll find it real quick.
Haley Carney
Hold on. Okay. Well, President Trump posted on Truth Social, basically saying. And we'll get the original one, but I'm paraphrasing here. It was addressed to Pam. It just said Pam Colon. And then he said, you know, I'm getting text messages. People are upset. We're not seeing firings, we're not seeing arrests, we're not seeing any movement on January 6th on, you know, the pipe bomber, on this, on that. And I tend to agree. Here we go. Here's here. Here's what it said. Pam Colon, I have received over. I'm sorry, I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that essentially, same old story as last time. All talk, no action, nothing is being done. What about Comey, Adam, Shifty, Schiff, Letitia, they're all guilty as hell, but nothing is going to be done. Then we almost put in a Democrat, supported U.S. attorney in Virginia with a really bad Republican past, awoke Rhino who was never going to do his job. That's why two of the worst Dem senators pushed him so hard. He even lied to the media and said that he quit and that we had no case. I fired him. And there's a great case. Many lawyers and legal pundits say so. And he then was propping up Lindsay Halligan as his choice for. What is her title, I'm forgetting now. U.S. attorney in. Please hold. She's the interim U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. Sorry, I just had to look that up because I didn't know off the top of my head. But interesting that he was saying, you know, and kind of poking Pam, saying, hey, we haven't, you know, Adam Schiff's not in handcuffs. Some of these people that you said you're gonna do things on. And like I said, you know, January 6th, pipe bomber. We haven't had any information on that. You know, the Epstein files again, let.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Me ask you a question.
Haley Carney
I know a lot of, a lot's happened, but we still haven't seen the Epstein files.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Let me ask you a question. Out of all the stuff that's sort of, you know, people have pointed a lot of fame, given a lot of criticism, I think rightfully so, to Pam Bondi. Right. Have you ever heard Trump, other than this, kind of get at her a little bit publicly?
Haley Carney
He's been.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
I feel like he's always been defensive.
Haley Carney
He has been defensive of her, which brings in this next Twitter post, the one that you brought up the first.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Time, you know, we gave away the ending.
Haley Carney
So that was the punchline. But yes. Then later on he said this. Pam Bondi's doing a great job as Attorney General of the United States. She's very careful, very smart, loves our country, but needs a tough prosecutor in the East Eastern District of Virginia. Like my recommendation, Lindsey Halligan, to get things moving. What we don't need is a Democrat endorsed Republican. I will be nominating Lindsey Halligan, blah, blah, blah. Okay. I think he posted the first one being like, this is what I want Pam Bondi to do. She's not doing what I'm saying. I'm annoying. I'm annoyed with her. And then someone must have said, I don't know. I don't know why he defends her all the time, but he takes to do social and he's like, just kidding.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
See, that's why I think we love.
Haley Carney
Her and she's so smart.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
All I. All I see is Trump defending Pam Bondi when a lot of people are. Are frustrated at her. And that was the first time that was like, oh, like he.
Haley Carney
But then he recoiled.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Yeah, but then he. Then he, you know, I guess he. He drank a Diet Coke and, you know, ate some chicken nuggets or whatever.
Haley Carney
He eats and he ate his Snickers.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
He mellowed out.
Haley Carney
He was just feeling a little better. I don't know. Um. But yeah, so interesting there to see him kind of go back on his word a little bit. It seems like he was frustrated with her and then kind of went to defend her again, but. More information on the assassination investigation, with FBI Director Cash Patel saying that he is investigating theories. Watch this. This is what he posted on X. As a director of the FBI, I'm committed to ensuring the investigation into Charlie Kirk's assassination is thorough and exhaustive, pursuing every lead to its conclusion. The full weight of America's law enforcement agencies are actively following the evidence that has emerged. But our efforts extend beyond initial findings. We are examining every facet of this assassination. We are meticulously investigating theories and questions, including the location from where the shot was taken, the possibility of accomplices, the text message confession and related conversations, discord chats, the angle of the shot and bullet impact, how the weapon was transported, hand gestures observed as potential signals near Charlie at the time of his assassination, and visitors to the alleged shooter's residence in the hours and days leading up to September 10th. Some details are known today while others are still being being pursued and ensure every possibility is considered. Our primary focus is to complete this investigation and deliver justice. Interesting that he said he's. That they're going down all of those rabbit holes, if you will, because we've seen a lot of these theories on social media that the man that was standing behind Charlie Kirk, Frank Turek, now that we know that's who that was, he had his phone out, he is touching his hat. But again, he spoke at Charlie Kirk's funeral yesterday and he says that Charlie is like a son to him and he was in the car with all the Turning Point staff when they were trying to get Charlie to the hospital. So again, do I think that this guy has bad intentions? No. But I am glad that Cash has basically said out in the open, we know what the Internet is saying and we are going to go down those rabbit holes. Whether or not we believe that they are true or not, we are going to investigate them. And I think that that's important. I think it's also just important for people who have questions to hear that people in government are listening. They know that we are curious. We. They know that we have outstanding questions as today because this is an ongoing investigation. But this makes me feel a little bit better. I don't know if anyone else got that feeling, hearing that post that or seeing that post on X that, you know, we were just talking about this too before the show started. We should really, we should go live before the show starts and everyone can see us, you know, chit chatting about whatever we're chit chatting about. But, you know, I was asking just the guys in here, don't you think it's odd? I was, you know, and I kind of wanted to tweet this yesterday and then I was like, no, that's insensitive. The memorial is going on. Like, just save it. So I was thinking about this over the weekend, but I was thinking about the text messages. And in the text messages, the alleged assassin texts his trans lover saying, remember those bullet casings I was engraving? Do you remember that? When the roommate was like, he said, don't you remember I was doing that? Wouldn't that send Alarm bells off in your head. If your boyfriend or girlfriend or a friend that you are living with is engraving hey fascist catch on a bullet casing, I would think that's weird. Again, these are weird people, right? Like, they're not normal. They don't act like normal people. But if I was dating someone and they were engraving bullets, I would say I would just have some questions. Hey, who are those for?
Guest or Analyst
My wife likes knitting.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Right.
Guest or Analyst
It's, I think, a normal hobby.
Haley Carney
So if she started, if she was engraving hey, fascist catch on one of her knitting needles, would you have questions?
Guest or Analyst
I would have questions, yeah. That would be a little concerning in bullet. Yeah, it's very strange. I don't know if, like, do hunters do this sort of thing? Andy, is this, like, normal to car.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
The deer of deer, I'm going to shoot shoot you. No, we don't.
Guest or Analyst
So, yeah, I think it's very strange.
Haley Carney
But, you know, we saw the, the other trans killer in Minnesota who shot up the Catholic school. He had all these different writings, political writings and things on his firearms. So, you know, this seems like something that they do. It's not unheard of. I just think it's odd that people are saying, well, oh, the text messages are clearly fabricated to absolve the boyfriend. But then that doesn't absolve the boyfriend because he literally said, like, didn't you see me doing this? So how does that absolve the boyfriend? So I don't believe that. I think we were all saying, go ahead. Sorry.
Guest or Analyst
I'm sorry. It tells me either this is like normal behavior amongst these sort of people, which is quite concerning if there's a common hobby or this person just.
Haley Carney
Well, don't use the word normal. Yeah, very unaware, maybe, but not normal.
Guest or Analyst
Or maybe they knew something and just, I don't know, failed to connect the dots or was unwilling to connect the dots. But, yeah, I think either way, like, you're looking at a binary and either of the alternatives is very concerning.
Haley Carney
Yeah. I'm also glad that, you know, in that post on X, Director Patel said that they're looking into some of these online theories and, you know, there's still no word about whether or not the bullet. Because there's no, like, public autopsy information.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
No, now you're. Now you're talking. Now you're absolutely talking the, the language that, like, I've been thinking this whole time and it's. We. I would like to see. And these guys are on it. I mean, like, this information is going to come out because it, it comes out in Homicides.
Haley Carney
Right.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
All over the place. But does the bullet ballistics match the rifle?
Haley Carney
Right.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
You know, and as weird as it sounds to me, they're the, the surgeon general said what that is. The, the, the actual round of the. 30:06 was like basically like in the, in the flesh gettable. But like it's, you know, that's inconsistent with any 30 ought 6 round I've ever shot. And that's, I mean I've shot 30 ought six rounds, I told you before, like through a truck and, and a barn, like at the same time.
Haley Carney
Let's pull up this post then, and then we can have that discussion because Andrew Clovet, who again is the executive producer of the Charlie Kirk show, he is a spokesman for Turning Point usa. He said this, and this is a little lengthy, but I think it's important to go through. So hang in there with me. I want to address some of the discussion about the lack of an exit wound with Charlie. I'm usually not interested in delving into most of this kind of online chatter and I apologize, this is somewhat graphic. But in this case the fact was there wasn't an exit wound is probably another miracle and I want people to know. I just spoke with the surgeon who worked on Charlie in the hospital. He said the bullet absolutely should have gone through, which is very normal, very, very normal for a high powered, high velocity round. I've seen wounds from this caliber many times and they always go through everything. This would have taken a moose or two down, an elk, etc, but it didn't go through. Charlie's body stopped it. I mentioned to his doctor that there were dozens of staff, students and special guests standing directly behind Charlie on the other side of the tent. And he replied it was an absolute miracle that someone else didn't get killed. His bone was so healthy and the density was so, so impressive that he's like the man of steel. It should have just gone through and through. It likely would have killed those standing behind him too. In the end, the coroner did find the bullet just beneath the skin. Even in death, Charlie managed to save the lives of those around him. Remarkable. Miraculous. Now.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
That literally would be something entirely miraculous, right? Like, and I don't, I mean you can't explain that.
Haley Carney
Like, you can't explain that, right? That would just be a miracle.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Some. Someone said in the chat, don't forget God. You know, the Lord could be protecting a ton of people behind Charlie and a ton like who, who knows with this? But like, it is absolutely inconsistent with anything that's ever shot out of a.30 06. I mean, the bullets traveling 2,000 miles an hour.
Haley Carney
But here's what I don't understand. The bullet is traveling that fast. And the surgeon found the bullet just under Charlie's skin.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Well, when it hits, bone bullets, you know, even in a deer or an elk, I mean they just bounce around. Sometimes a bullet wound doesn't even exit. But like most, most, not most handgun rounds don't even exit the body. So like, but, but a rifle this powerful hitting and your neck vertebrae is not even as strong as a femur or a skull. You know, and so I don't. I, I would love to know more information about this. I totally trust the people that are investigating.
Haley Carney
Someone in the chat said, would the distance make a difference? I think certainly the, you know, a.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Bullet, a bullet slows down, but at, at 300 yards, 200, 200, 250 yards, it's still at max velocity. I mean it, I think a bullet like that would hit an individual with so much kinetic force that it would knock him completely out of his chair backwards.
Haley Carney
Right.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
But who. This is a, you know, all these things are, are interesting and I do believe in the miraculous. I don't know, I'm not downplaying any of this. I would just, I know they're investigating it. Hold, hold, hold, hold. Right. We'll know, we'll know information. But this is probably not like anybody that's ever gone deer hunting or shot a.30 06. This is not like any wound that they've ever, they've ever seen. So you shot 700 pound elk.
Haley Carney
That's odd though.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Oh, 100.
Haley Carney
Trying to sound conspiratorial or insensitive because I think this would be a lovely thing if it was, if it was true. This is very lovely. We could just all lay our heads down at night and say God is watching him and God is protecting everyone else. And you know, that's fine. Like I'm a believer. I think that that's wonderful. But I also have questions. And I think because there wasn't an autopsy, I do think it's odd that the surgeon found the bullet just under his skin.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
And the bullet, the ballistics need to match the rifle.
Haley Carney
I've also never. Well, correct. I've also never heard like if you are killed with a bolt action rifle, him being young and healthy makes a difference. Like I don't think that like his bones were just so healthy.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
I've never heard of the question, the question raised by the surgeon general saying that is like the vertebrae, that it.
Haley Carney
Wasn't a surgeon general. It was just the surgeon that worked on him.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Okay, the surgeon. Sorry. The surgeon, my bad, said that the bullet that hit his neck vertebrae, that bone. Those bones in your body are not in your. Your neck are not as strong as other bones in your body, like your femur, your skull. It's like, I don't. I don't know how a bullet that fast hits a small neck vertebrae and doesn't blow it up or blow through it, but instead bounces around, doesn't exit the body, and is right there. Easy to get to. Take a. Weird things are done in ballistics. Who knows?
Haley Carney
No exit wound is obviously strange, but I'm saying all this to say that the FBI director said that this is ongoing and they are going down every rabbit hole, even the Internet ones, even the crazy ones. So again, that makes me feel a little better that you know the answers that we do have, that, you know, that's what we know now, but that doesn't mean that more information can't come out later.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
So 100%. And this isn't like anything. Like, we're not. I don't believe we're being conspiratorial. These are interesting questions that I think will get answered in time, that right now are just sort of like, apparent. Like. Like, why isn't there a ballistics match? Why didn't. Why wasn't there an autopsy?
Haley Carney
Well, no one.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
We don't know that there wasn't even.
Haley Carney
Said whether or not the bullet that was found under Charlie's skin matched.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
That's what I mean. Yeah, we don't have a ballistics. At least it's not public. You know what I mean? And so. Hold, hold, hold. This is. This isn't. This is short term for an investigation. And so we'll. We'll. I know there'll be more information released, I believe Cash and Dan, those guys are that. I mean, those guys. Work ethics are insane. I know they're working hard on it, but we're just presenting the questions that we think are the most, like, obvious.
Haley Carney
Yeah, I mean, someone just said in the chat, did the bullet break, like, again, we just don't know these things. We don't know if the. We don't know. We just don't know. So I guess we'll just wait and see.
Caller or Viewer Commentator
Hold.
Haley Carney
We'll hold. All right, let's get into a quick scrolling time. All right, I've got two videos for you that we're going to end the show on. And the rest of scrolling time, I'll Save for tomorrow. But I wanted to let everyone know that people on TikTok, thank you. Think that the Rapture is happening, and it is happening tomorrow, September 23rd. We're all going home, believers. We're going home.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Aren't we not supposed to know correct the time? I'm a little. Candy, I'm a little. My daughter was talking about this the other day. I'm like, you know, I mean, you.
Haley Carney
Made a great point. We're not supposed to know when the Rapture comes. That's. It's not in the Bible there. It's just not. We don't. We're not supposed to know when it happens. It's just going to happen when it happens. This is. This is the way it goes. So, anyway, people on TikTok are assuming that or preparing for the Rapture to take place tomorrow that. Well, you know, I don't know. Listen, I tell you these things that are trending on TikTok because it's happening, and I. I just like to cover it. But this is giving to me the same TikTok witches that said that on September 3rd, President Trump's gonna die, and on August 27th, you know, President Trump's gonna die. And then they were all wrong. And, you know, maybe this is the last nightly stroll ever. I don't know. Maybe it is tomorrow. I don't know. But I'm just letting you know what everyone's saying online. So this woman is joking, of course, but she is preparing her husband for the rapture. Watch this. Says, preparing my husband for the rapture on Tuesday because there's no way he is going anywhere. And she is teaching her husband how to load the dishwasher, use the vacuum, you know, certain household things, because she's joking that she's not going to be here, because she's. She should be present.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
What's wrong with that woman?
Haley Carney
She's going home, but her husband is not. I would say if you were in one of these relationships and you think that your husband is not going to make it to heaven, maybe work on him. Don't take him with you. Make sure that he is going with you.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Have a. Have a conversation.
Haley Carney
That's what I think is important.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
But promise you he ain't gonna be thinking about if he wakes up and his was gone or her clothes are right where she was standing. I don't think he's going to be thinking about the dishwasher.
Haley Carney
He's not going to be vacuuming or doing the dishes. I don't think if he's Left behind. But anyway, so lots of people. This is obviously a joke, but lots of people are dead serious and they think that the rapture is tomorrow. And now, of course, like I said before, the TikTok witches are added again. So here is a TikTok witch. She is now casting a spell on all Christians, which is great. I'm just gonna give myself one of these real quick to make sure that we are protected. We do not claim any negative energy from this video. This is this Tick Tock witch. This is what she's working on right now. Watch. It says, binding Christian souls to the earth so that they can't be raptured. And it's just. It looks like a bunch of cigarette butts in a plate in a. But I don't know, she's burning something. And whatever it is, I do not claim any bad energy. But you know, this very well may be the last episode of Nightly Scroll. So thank you all for watching. I love you all. Are you ready, Andy? If the rapture is tomorrow, I believe.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
Yeah, totally. I mean, I think it'd be a good day for everybody. But like, you know, I do think that you don't. Nobody knows the date or time, obviously, but like, I do think, you know, signs. I mean, we do, we do have. We do have. That's a. That's a very powerful thing. We do have signs. People and things are sort of trending.
Haley Carney
People are a little crazy, but people on Tick Tock are saying that they're seeing signs. Like one girl that I saw, she said that her three year old started speaking Hebrew without knowing Hebrew.
Co-host or Guest Analyst
People have pointed at sort of Bitcoin as being that global currency that the word speaks of. So, I mean, I think, you know, things may be maybe trending, but I don't, I don't think that Christ, you know, the trumpet's gonna sound, you know, in the clouds because TikTok said it said it was going to.
Haley Carney
Don't believe the TikTok witches. Just open your Bible and you'll be fine. All right. Thank you for watching Nightly scroll tonight. I will see you right back here tomorrow.

Date: September 23, 2025
Host: Hayley Caronia
In this emotionally charged episode, Hayley Caronia recaps the monumental memorial service for conservative activist Charlie Kirk following his assassination. The show dives into themes of faith, forgiveness, and cultural rifts, spotlighting Erika Kirk’s extraordinary act of public forgiveness toward her husband’s killer. Hayley also offers updates on the ongoing investigation, reflects on the national response and security concerns at large conservative gatherings, examines President Trump’s eulogy and comments, and tackles cultural debates flaring online. Other topics include late-night television controversies, reactions to rapture predictions on TikTok, and the latest from Trump’s Truth Social posts.
Massive Attendance: State Farm Stadium was filled beyond capacity, with about 70,000 in the stadium and 20,000 in overflow spaces. Estimates claim over 100 million streamed the event online—a record for conservative events.
Protests and Security: Despite a few protesters outside, the event ran smoothly, credited heavily to robust Secret Service and law enforcement presence—including visible agents on rooftops waving to the crowd.
Faith as a Central Theme: Almost every speaker referenced Christianity and the gospel, including notable nontraditional voices.
“That young man on the cross, our Savior said, father, forgive them, for they not know what they do… I forgive him because it was what Christ did and is what Charlie would do. The answer to hate is not hate. The answer we know from the gospel is love and always love. Love for our enemies and love for those who persecute us.”
Human and Candid: Trump delivered a eulogy loaded with personal reflection—and classic Trumpian divergence.
“He did not hate his opponents. He wanted the best for them. That’s where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponent and I don’t want the best for them. I’m sorry. I am sorry, Erika. But now Erica can talk to me and the whole group and maybe they can convince me that that’s not right. But I can’t stand my opponent.”
Health Policy Hints: Trump previewed the “Make America Healthy Again” initiative and reignited the Tylenol use–autism debate.
Strange Aftermath: After Jimmy Kimmel was suspended from ABC for controversial comments, a gunman (anti-Trump, as per online posts) fired shots into a local ABC affiliate.
Industry Analysis: Discussion on whether late-night TV is a dying medium.
FBI Director’s Statement: Cash Patel, as FBI Director, released a message affirming a comprehensive probe, addressing internet theories, ballistic analysis, and all leads.
Ballistics, Medical Anomalies, and Theories: Ongoing speculation surrounds the bullet that killed Charlie Kirk.
“The bullet absolutely should have gone through… a high-powered, high-velocity round… But it didn’t go through. Charlie’s body stopped it… In the end, the coroner did find the bullet just beneath the skin… Even in death, Charlie managed to save the lives of those around him.”
Ongoing Questions: The hosts express a desire for transparency and autopsy details, including matching the bullet to the weapon.
“I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that … Same old story as last time. … What about Comey, Adam Shifty Schiff, Letitia? … Nothing is being done.”
“Pam Bondi’s doing a great job as Attorney General… She’s very careful, very smart, loves our country, but needs a tough prosecutor…”
“If you think your husband is not going to make it to heaven, maybe work on him. Don’t take him with you. Make sure that he is going with you.”
Erika Kirk’s Forgiveness:
"I forgive him because it was what Christ did and is what Charlie would do. The answer to hate is not hate. The answer we know from the gospel is love and always love. Love for our enemies and love for those who persecute us."
—Erika Kirk [12:11]
President Trump on Charlie vs Himself:
"He did not hate his opponents. He wanted the best for them. That’s where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponent and I don’t want the best for them. I’m sorry. I am sorry, Erica. But now Erica can talk to me and the whole group and maybe they can convince me that that’s not right. But I can’t stand my opponent."
—Donald Trump [16:03]
Hayley on Cultural Alienation:
"It’s just odd that people don’t feel at home when you’re watching a memorial service. Why would you not feel at home?"
—Hayley [22:19]
Co-host on Late Night TV:
"I’m not even sure the whole genre of late night isn’t a dying thing."
—Co-host [37:06]
Hayley on Ballistic Anomaly:
"No exit wound is obviously strange, but… that the FBI director said that this is ongoing and they are going down every rabbit hole, even the Internet ones, even the crazy ones… that makes me feel a little better."
—Hayley [53:49]
Hayley’s approach is conversational, direct, and blends sharp conservative critique with emotional outreach—particularly around faith and forgiveness. The co-hosts inject humor, skepticism, and technical curiosity, especially regarding the assassination investigation and cultural topics.
This episode stands as a microcosm of contemporary conservative discourse: a blend of painful loss, evangelical faith, culture war anxieties, and persistent skepticism toward establishment narratives and legacy media. Erika Kirk’s grace and forgiveness provide a spiritual through-line; debates on security, transparency, and political divides anchor the show in broader national anxieties. The result is a program that's both a cultural postmortem and a call for faith-driven unity in crisis.
