Episode Date: October 13, 2025
Host: Andrew Colvett (executive producer, filling in for Charlie Kirk)
Guests: Raheem Kassam (The National Pulse), Blake Neff (Charlie Kirk Show), Liz Wheeler (BlazeTV, The Liz Wheeler Show)

Episode Overview

This episode, hosted by Andrew Colvett in place of the late Charlie Kirk, is both a reflection on historic political events—specifically the landmark peace developments in the Middle East—and an exploration of the aftermath and ongoing investigation into the assassination of Charlie Kirk. The show features news analysis, guest commentary, and a deep dive into left-wing radicalization, particularly in relation to Antifa and trans militant groups. The tone is urgent, reflective, and at times celebratory, especially in relation to the Middle East peace deal, while also being investigative and critical regarding domestic extremism.

Main Themes

• Historic Middle East Peace Agreement: The episode opens with coverage and analysis of the striking, perhaps unprecedented, peace between Israel and Gaza, brokered by President Donald Trump, including the release of all living hostages and a major international summit.
• Charlie Kirk’s Legacy: The panel reflects on Kirk’s influence, his unexpected assassination, and the emotional, cultural, and political impact on the conservative movement.
• Left-wing Radicalization: The show investigates militant leftist networks, particularly focusing on the Armed Queers of SLC, Socialist Rifle Association, Antifa, and their methods of organization, funding, and violent activism.
• Mainstream Media Critique: Criticism is levelled at MSM for downplaying Antifa’s organization and for their reactions to both Trump’s accomplishments and leftist violence.
• Conservative Movement Growth: Turning Point USA’s exponential growth in chapters and broader legacy after Kirk’s death is discussed.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Middle East Peace Deal: Trump’s Historic Win

• Major focus on President Trump’s role brokering peace between Israel and Gaza, described as a moment of “unanimity” across political and international spectrums.
• Notable that all 20 living hostages were released and widespread celebrations erupted in Israel.

“We have peace in Gaza and in Israel. It is a wonderful day, a day that Charlie Kirk himself would have been extraordinarily pleased by, excited about, and really celebrating in a huge way.” — Andrew Colvett (10:31)

• Trump gave a “remarkable” speech before the Knesset, even calling for Bibi Netanyahu to be pardoned (an impromptu move).
• Trump then travelled to Egypt for an international summit, aiming to solidify and expand peace.

International Context & Skepticism

• Raheem Kassam notes that lasting peace is difficult in the Middle East due to enduring factional conflict ("they always find a reason to fight"). Still, he asserts Trump was “uniquely positioned” to broker this.

“…It takes brash Mr. Trump from Brooklyn or Queens to come along and just, you know, find a deal.” — Raheem Kassam (18:55)

• Panel reflects on the historicity of the moment and its “crown jewel” status among Trump’s other diplomatic feats.

Young Voters and Trump’s Peace Messaging

“One of the main reasons we were able to get young people to vote for President Trump so overwhelmingly this last election was a reminder that President Trump is the peace president…” — Charlie Kirk, clip played by Blake Neff (17:27)

• The team attributes some of Trump’s electoral success, especially among young voters, to his anti-war stance and ability to “thread the needle” in foreign policy.

Critique of Media & ‘Elite’ Response

• The Washington establishment and MSM are described as “mortified” by Trump’s success, with empty streets in DC instead of cheers.
• Media is criticized for downplaying or reframing Trump’s victory (New York Times, The Atlantic), focusing instead on supposed lost chances or nitpicking Trump’s methods.

2. Remembering Charlie Kirk

Emotional Impact & National Response

• The episode is steeped in the ongoing mourning and celebration of Kirk’s legacy, as Trump is set to posthumously award him the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
• Guests and audience emails recall Kirk as a uniquely normal, kind, and mission-driven conservative whose murder was a galvanizing event.

"Charlie was the most normal conservative of all of us. I mean, he was so generous and so charitable, so kind, so loving. He spoke firmly, but he spoke the truth in love…that's the reason that he was brutally murdered." — Liz Wheeler (66:18)

• The assassination is framed as a spiritual event—an awakening to the reality of good versus evil, moving beyond partisan squabbling.

3. Radicalization Networks & Investigation into Kirk’s Assassination

The Armed Queers of SLC and Related Groups

• Liz Wheeler presents investigative findings:
  • The alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, participated in a Discord group where he confessed to the crime, and at least 20 others were present. FBI is now investigating whether there were accomplices or foreknowledge.
  • Armed Queers SLC, a group receiving State Department-affiliated NGO funding, is a Marxist-Leninist network aiming to train queer/trans members in armed resistance.
  • The group’s leader, who received awards for advancing UN goals, was a biological male who transitioned and is tied to both local radical groups and violent incidents.

“…their goal is to train gay, queer and transgender people to arm themselves and fight against capitalism and the American system. They are a communist group, a Marxist group, a Leninist group.” — Liz Wheeler (73:02)

• Overlap emerging between Armed Queers, the Socialist Rifle Association (SRA), and the John Brown Gun Club, all involved in various violent incidents.

Warning Signs & Social Media Foreknowledge

• Multiple ominous social media signals, including posts and a song on Spotify titled “the assassination of Charlie Kirk,” surfaced before the event—raising the specter of a broader conspiracy or radicalization network.

Transgender Ideology, Violence, and Extremist Networks

• The panel outlines how various front groups (SRA, John Brown Gun Club, etc.) serve as operational arms of Antifa, obfuscating leadership and funding flows but in practice acting with shared goals and overlapping membership.

Ties to Institutional Funding and NGOs

“…the leader of Armed Queers SLC was given money by a US government agency, the State Department…[via] Utah Global Diplomacy…as a recipient for the 7 for 17 award for advancing the UN’s 17 sustainability goals.” — Liz Wheeler (81:05)

• Details are provided showing how State Department and NGO funding may inadvertently (or deliberately) support radical groups.

Media Whitewashing & ‘Antifa Denialism’

• Extended critique of MSM talking points downplaying Antifa as a “myth,” despite extensive documentation of networked, ideologically motivated, and violent activity.
• Panel argues that Antifa’s structure is meant to appear decentralized only to evade scrutiny and prosecution.

“They operate behind the mask of a whole host of radical leftist groups. Many of them have actually quite innocuous names to even hide that they are leftist.” — Liz Wheeler (93:59)

• Several clips highlight the near verbatim repetition of the talking point: “Antifa isn’t real,” “it’s just an idea,” etc.

4. Conservative Movement and Grassroots Growth

• Turning Point USA’s explosive expansion following Kirk’s death is chronicled:
  • College chapters more than doubled in a month (from ~900 to ~1,700+).
  • High school chapters also nearly doubled, now totalling over 800,000 students involved.
• Panel attributes this grassroots energy to Kirk’s charisma, purpose, and the movement’s resonance in times of crisis.

Notable Quotes & Timestamps

• “This will be remembered as the moment that everything began to change and change very much for the better. Like the USA right now. It will be the golden age of Israel and the golden age of the Middle East.” — Donald Trump addressing Knesset (25:55, aired on show at 25:38)
• “If this was Bill Clinton or even George Bush, certainly Barack Obama, the streets of Washington, D.C. today would be lined with people cheering this peace process on. Instead, on my way over here, it’s empty, it’s silent, there’s nothing going on here. The establishment of the city are mortified that he got it done because it proves their worthlessness.” — Raheem Kassam (29:18)
• “There was a Discord Group chat in which Tyler Robinson admitted guilt for the assassination of Charlie Kirk…did they know ahead of time? Did they aid and abet Tyler Robinson? Did he have any accomplices?” — Liz Wheeler (72:16)
• “Antifa is far from a major sophisticated terror organization like Hezbollah, Hamas or ISIS. In fact…there is no organized hierarchy to the group…according to the center for Strategic and International Studies, compared to right wing extremists, antifa linked violence is rare and limited.” — Erin Burnett, CNN, played at (93:14)
• “This is…how they intend it to be. They want us to be confused. But once you see this, you can’t unsee this…” — Liz Wheeler on radical group interplay (86:04)
• “…the hallmarks of what’s going on on the left today bear the same hallmarks of how young Islamic men were radicalized in the early 2000s.” — Raheem Kassam (113:11)
